The string of performances will be backed by Offica's collective, A92, which comprises of fellow talents such as BT, Nikz, K-Sav, Andre Fazaz, Dbo, and Kebz.

His debut mixtapes delved into two facets of his Offica's artistry - Hokage in Drogheda, embodying his 'classic' rap essence, while Hokage in Lagos embraces an Afrobeats-driven sound.

Offica's journey thus far has been one of record-breaking, chart-topping achievements - his knack for fusing Irish and Yoruba slang in his lyrics offering a unique lens into his cultural identity.

He's also made waves with his memorable freestyles for Kenny Allstar and Charlie Sloth, collaborating with Youtube star KSI and his unmatched streaming record in UK Drill freestyle with A92 x Fumez the Engineer's 'Plugged In' - which has exceeding 120 million streams.

Tickets for Offica's UK and Ireland tour go on sale this Friday 1 December at 10am.
