After over two decades at the top of one of Africa’s biggest entertainment industries, Cecil Hammond’s (@cecilhammond ) contact list looks more like a cultural directory, where every single name is a very important person and a cherished friend.
With a Rolodex like Cecil’s, it’s natural to be concerned about inadvertently leaving people off the list. Thanks to the support of his wife Keke (@kekehammond ) and the capability of his Flytime (@flytimeHQ ) family who produced the event, Hammond had a last-minute change of heart. And at The Party of the Season, no one was left out.
We debriefed with Flytime on how CH50 came to life.

Few people have shaped the architecture of Nigerian entertainment the way @CecilHammond has. From launching Rhythm Unplugged in 2004 to building Flytime Fest into the heartbeat of Detty December, his work has never been accidental it has been deliberate, structural, and quietly transformative.
For over two decades, he has been the hand behind the platforms, the stages, and the moments that defined a generation backing artists like @TiwaSavage and @Davido before the world caught on, and building an ecosystem that stretches from Flytime Records to TAPE Lagos.
At 50, the most important chapter is only just beginning.

Interview by @bafunke_babskufeji
We were honored to have our own @kekehammond at #SXSW2026 for the “Unlocking Africa: Real Partnerships and Real Results” panel, sharing the Flytime journey and how we’ve helped shape the Detty December we all know and love.
A huge takeaway from the session? Our dedication to inclusivity. We’re doubling down on our commitment to bringing more female talent to the forefront and ensuring our stages represent the full diversity of African music.
Thank you @sxsw for the platform to share our vision.
