Rapper and media maestro Blaqbonez was tapped to host the second edition of the Clout Talk Concert. The rapper has mastered the art of driving conversations on social media around his projects and garnered the respect of his peers. There was no better person to take all that online charisma and translate it to a live audience. He took charge at the Space Hub in Lekki Phase One on the 4th of March 2022 at the Clout Talk Concert, supported by beverage giant Pepsi, and sponsored by Cadbury's TomTom holding the attention of a full house for a 5-hour extravaganza with some of Naija’s most charismatic new pop stars.

BlaqBonez kept the conversation fun with the occasional curveball about their relationship with their fandoms and the future of the industry. They were encouraged to interact directly with the guests while Cool FM’s Dj Joenel ran the decks, pumping hit after hit to keep the energy levels up and Fabulous keeping the crowd hype.
