Having emerged triumphant from the MOBO Awards earlier this year, taking home ‘Best Gospel Act’, and building on a stellar year in 2023 where he was recognised as one of Tidal’s rising artists to watch, Limo continues to cement his position as a ‘one to watch’ star.

More importantly, I'm hopeful that everything we have planned will inspire and motivate young people to be passionate about bringing hope into the world." ” says Limoblaze.
