African China and Deejay Vx Bring 2000s Nostalgia to Asaba Y2K Party

Music lovers in Asaba, Delta State, were taken back to the early 2000s as African China and Deejay Vx brought nostalgic sounds and entertainment to Vale Music Entertainment’s Y2K Party.

The event, held on August 20, 2026, at The Cave Outdoor in Asaba, celebrated the music, fashion and pop culture that defined an unforgettable era. It was organised by London-based DJ and producer Valentine Obiajulu, popularly known as Deejay Vx.

African China, known for his contribution to Nigerian street music, headlined the show with a lively performance. Despite experiencing a luggage problem during his journey from Lagos, the singer delivered an engaging acoustic set that had fans singing along to familiar songs.

Deejay Vx also joined him on stage, adding to the excitement. DJs Flex and Switchy kept the atmosphere lively with popular throwback sounds that reminded guests of their favourite musical moments.

The party also embraced early-2000s fashion. Guests arrived in Nollywood-inspired outfits, while old newspaper decorations gave the venue a distinct retro appearance.

The continued popularity of 2000s music shows how strongly those songs connect with listeners. For many fans, the period brings back memories of school days, friendships, childhood experiences and the early days of Nigerian street music. Familiar melodies still create excitement across different generations.

The event's colourful outfits, stage performances and throwback atmosphere also provided plenty of moments for photographs and social media sharing, giving the nostalgia theme another life beyond the venue.

Ultimately, the Asaba Y2K Party showed that old-school music remains an important part of Nigerian entertainment culture.
