Safario

About the experience

The young multi talent Safario has made his mark as one of Norway`s hottest hip hop-talents in no time. In the end of 2018, the EP “Kapiskate” came out to great reviews. Safario produced, wrote and mixed the whole EP himself. The music is filled with positivity and energy, and immediately pulls you into Safario`s universe. He has a drive and a constant experimentation that makes it impossible to not get carried away.

Safario has gotten noticed for his live shows. He started out when Norwegian rappers Arif and Unge Ferrari noticed Safario and had him as one of their support acts for their sold-out show in Oslo Spektrum Arena (audience 6000). This was also Safario’s very first solo show, – just a week before the release of his first single. Since, Safario has made a mark for his live shows, his song writing and his studio music. One thing is for sure, everyone dances along on a Safario-concert, so you might as well clear out you living room floor.

About the concert

We are at a former library in a post-apocalyptic near future, in a world we might call “Big Brother 2073”. Safario seems to be the only one left alive, in a huge building that gives a sense of watching the Truman Show. We follow him through the futuristic dystopia, watching through a retro lense how he entertains himself - with or without an audience.
