Shay Lia, a Montreal rnb artist performed right after and stunned the crowd with performances of her originals including her featured songs with KAYTRANADA Chances and Leave Me Alone. She was so soulful in her set as she owned the stage by fully moving around and dancing as she gave the crowd a few moments to remember.

Finally, TOBi our headliner took on the stage to close the night off. Hailing from Brampton, he brought his jazzy and soulful take on rnb by blessing the crowd with his bangers such as LiBRa, January December and City Blues. His closing set put a strong exclamation mark to end this successful night leaving London blown away. Make sure to check out the full gallery on our Flickr profile.
