CAREER BACKGROUND
Slim has performed alongside Johnny Drille (2024 Canada tour), Kizz Daniel, Chike; opened for Davido, Burna Boy, Ty Dolla $ign, NSG, and Adekunle Gold; performed at festivals such as Kelowna’s Center of Gravity, AfroLituation in Miami and Austin, AfroSwitch, Calgary Stampede, and collaborated within Canada’s music scene (including bbno$, Teon Gibbs, Dozie, Betta Boyz, Joyboy NEIO, and Ebun). Engagements span Canada and international dates in Italy, Jamaica, Nigeria, USA, the UK, and Mexico, plus public/government-sector and brand events, and stadium entertainment (e.g., pre-match and halftime for the Cavalry FC). Behind the scenes, he is known for clear advance work, timeline support, and curated playlists that reflect each audience. That combination of stage presence and meticulous prep has made Slim a trusted partner to planners and a favorite with diverse, cross-generational audiences.
SLIM TYME’S MUSIC STYLE
Slim’s sets are built for real-world rooms: intentional build, clean transitions, tasteful edits, and selections that move across eras and cultures without losing the thread. Core strengths include Afrobeats and Amapiano, with equal comfort in hip-hop, R&B, dancehall, house, pop, and classics. Live sax is used where it adds value: cocktail hours/receptions, aisle walks, first dances, feature drops, or elevated moments - never as a gimmick. Corporate shows can be fully radio-edit and brand-aligned; wedding programs can move from elegant to high-energy at the right pace; festival sets are concise, high-impact, and rider-friendly. The goal is simple: play the right record at the right time, and make it easy for the whole team to succeed.
