Dapper Group is a cutting-edge entertainment company established in 2018 and headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria. Through the innovative leadership of entrepreneur and executive Damilola Akinwunmi, we have rapidly grown to become one of Nigeria’s leading entertainment companies. At Dapper Group, we are determined to be a strong force in defining and advancing the unique music culture that exists on the African continent.
From starting out as a music distribution company, we’ve grown into a self-sustaining, all-encompassing entertainment powerhouse. Our comprehensive suite of services includes music publishing, music distribution, label & management services, and talent representation. Within our portfolio, you’ll find our subsidiaries: Dapper Digital, Dapper Music and Entertainment, Dapper Films, Dapper Live, and our music publishing arm, S94 Publishing.
Within the vibrant global scene of Afrobeats, our record label takes centre stage, dedicated to creating and promoting music that resonates across Africa and beyond. Dapper Digital has distributed for an array of elite musicians throughout the years, including renowned names such as Omah Lay, Falz, Skiibii, and producer Rexxie, among others. Our label currently boasts an arsenal of skilled and distinctive artists such as Shallipopi, Seyi Vibez, TI Blaze, Balloranking, and BhadBoi OML just to name a few.
Nigeria’s access to streaming services, coupled with the global surge in popularity of Afrobeats, has greatly benefitted Dapper Group. Consequently, we’ve overseen the distribution and release of over 2,000 songs, with our artists achieving remarkable streaming success on major DSPs. Seyi Vibez’s projects, from Billion Dollar Baby to Thy Kingdom Come, have soared to #1 on the Apple Music Top 100 in Nigeria. Shallopopi’s “Planet Pluto EP” has similarly claimed the #1 spot on the Top 100 chart. Our label’s artists have amassed over 1 billion streams on Audiomack, with five albums exceeding 100 million streams individually.
Seyi Vibez has also made waves on the UK Afrobeats Singles Chart, debuting at #19 with “Chance (Na Ham)” and reaching a peak position of #7 on the TurnTable Top 100 Chart.
