Banky W And D’Banj Join An International Cast: Brand Ambassadors For CIROC Ultra-Premium Vodka

At a Caribbean themed event, two of Nigeria’s most successful artists, Banky W and D’Banj, have been signed to represent one of the world’s most exclusive lifestyle brands, CÎROC Ultra-Premium Vodka.

Similar to its international alignment, where CÎROC works with influential & successful talent from around the world, the brand will support Banky W and D’Banj in their career efforts while simultaneously raising their profiles both domestically and internationally.

King of African Soul/R&B, Banky W combines global style with African rhythms and influences to create an entirely unique and impressive sound, which has catapulted him to continental and international acclaim. Aside from his musical success, Banky W is the king of Lagos’ vibrant nightlife scene, and is known as a staple on any exclusive guestlist. Banky W was also invited to the CÎROC Blue Stone celebration in Ibiza last year, cementing his association with this luxury brand.

Multi-Award winning singer-songwriter, D’Banj, meanwhile, has hit both local and international charts with his fusion of Afrobeat and electronic pop, which also saw him win the Best-selling African Artist title at the World Music Awards last year.

Apart from their desire to take African music to the world, both Banky W and D’Banj are also philanthropists, being founders of the I Am Capable Scholarship Fund and Koko Foundation for Youth and Peace Development, respectively.

“CÎROC is a world-renowned celebration brand, known as the drink of choice by international celebrities, to mark their greatest achievements. This is the drink for those who have arrived, and so, CÎROC’s presence firmly places Nigeria on the map as a luxury market economy,” adds Joe Nazzal.

Following the announcement, Banky W and D’Banj will be stepping into the circle along with other CÎROC Ambassadors from around the globe – including South African personalities Bonang Matheba, David Tlale, Da L.E.S. and DJ Dimplez, as well as Angola’s DJ Malvado – in the exclusive CÎROC Circle, a collection of magnetic talents that personify the new era of luxury ushered in by CÎROC.
