Dancehall artistes 450 and D’Yani will be the headliners for the second staging of Emoji Fest on October 27 at Fort Clarence Beach in St Catherine. “They were chosen because this staging of Emoji Fest is all about celebrating the ladies. We wanted to create a unique and memorable experience, and having both 450 and D’Yani, who will be performing in Portmore for the first time, adds a special touch.
Their powerful performances are sure to resonate with the audience and elevate the entire event,” Emoji Fest director Troy Watson told the Jamaica Observer . The other directors are Travis Bignall and Sanjay Smith. Artiste 450 is known for the singles Bad Gyal, Wild N Rich, Journey, and has collaborated with the likes of Valiant, Pablo YG, Deno Crazy, and NLE Choppa.
D’Yani is another ladies’ favourite known for tracks such as Feelings, Wife Anthem, and Señorita. Music at Emoji Fest will be provided by Illusion Sound, Di Unit, DJ Mario, and ZJ Chrome. Watson further said that the essence of the event is about curating a light hearted atmosphere for patrons.
“The inspiration behind the name Emoji Fest comes from the unique way we decided to incorporate emojis — those fun, expressive icons that everyone uses daily — into the event. Emojis are all about communication and emotion, and we wanted to create a space where people can express themselves just as freely, whether through music, dance, or the wearable emoji helmets we provide. It’s all about turning somethi.
