Sly5thAve, the multi-instrumentalist and producer known for his orchestral hip-hop and soul-jazz fusions, performs live in Hamburg. The show features material from his 2024 album 'Liberation', showcasing sophisticated arrangements and collaborative musicianship at the KENT Club.
Sly5thAve is the project of multi-instrumentalist, producer, arranger, and composer Sylvester Uzoma Onyejiaka II, whose sophisticated compositions are shaped by his faith in hip hop, and deep understanding of soul, R&B and jazz. Having released ‘The Invisible Man: An Orchestral Tribute To Dr. Dre’ to critical claim, Sly5thAve returned in 2020 with ‘What It Is’. Showcasing his abilities as a producer and collaborative musician, the LP featured the likes of Denitia, Marlon Craft, Melissa McMillan and Grammy-nominated Thalma de Freitas and celebrates Sly5thAve’s multifaceted musical nature. 2022 saw him collaborating with fellow composer and pianist Roberto Verástegui on ‘Agua de Jamaica’ and with New York MC/lyricist JSWISS on ‘Somebody’s Gotta Do It’. Layered with orchestral arrangements, jazz improvisation and Hip-Hop production, his 2024 album ‘Liberation’ is an accomplished record of courage, musical conviction, and growth. The LP is Sly5thAve’s first full album of original orchestral arrangements and features the musicianship of Sly5thAve’s collaborators and Ghost Note bandmates - headed by Snarky Puppy's multi-Grammy–winning percussion duo Robert “Sput” Searight and Nate Werth.
A mature, polite, and music-focused crowd (often 30-50s) that enjoys concerts and theme parties like 'Disco 40'.
