Heavyweight dub, powerful vocals and a conscious message.
Alpha Steppa x Nai-Jah bring together the raw energy of UK sound system culture and the rich
musical heritage of Nigeria, delivering a powerful live experience that moves both body and
mind.

Son and nephew of legendary UK dub pioneers Alpha & Omega (Greensleeves Records),
Alpha Steppa has spent over two decades developing his distinctive sound, blending traditional
roots reggae with contemporary bass music and influences gathered through extensive travels
around the world. Through his independent label Steppas Records, he has become an
internationally recognised figure in the sound system movement, performing at major festivals
and on hundreds of sound systems across the globe.
French-Nigerian singer and songwriter Nai-Jah draws inspiration from his Igbo heritage,
African musical traditions and roots reggae. His commanding voice, heartfelt delivery and
thought-provoking lyrics explore themes of injustice, corruption, unity and resilience, offering
messages of hope and empowerment.

Having first connected through the sound system movement in 2016, the two artists have
developed a deep musical partnership and friendship, releasing the acclaimed collaborative
album The Great Elephant and, more recently, Crowned Eagle (2026).
On stage, Alpha Steppa’s heavyweight productions and live dub mixing meet Nai-
Jah’s powerful vocals and infectious energy. With live bass and guitar adding another
dimension to the performance, the duo move fluidly between instruments, delivering a
dynamic, immersive show featuring original compositions, exclusive dubplates and deep, bass-
driven rhythms.

A formidable force on the international sound system circuit, Alpha Steppa x Nai-Jah
have toured extensively across Europe, Asia, the Americas and beyond, performing on
hundreds of sound systems worldwide and appearing at renowned festivals including Dour, Dub
Camp, Outlook, Fusion Festival and Ostróda Reggae Festival. From intimate underground
sessions to major international festival stages, the duo have earned a reputation for
electrifying performances, heavyweight bass and an infectious energy that brings audiences
together. Their live show is a celebration of sound system culture, combining musical
innovation, conscious expression and a shared passion for bringing people together through
music.
