Following the success of SOL Distro, SlikourOnLife’s artist empowerment platform, the company introduces Summer of Visuals — a groundbreaking initiative reshaping how music and visual storytelling are funded across Africa.
The pilot project allows artists to receive funding for their visuals while retaining 100% ownership and no repayment obligations — a major leap toward a fair and sustainable creative economy. By merging music, media, and technology, SOL Distro is building a model that champions authentic storytelling, creative independence, and economic empowerment for artists.
“Our goal is to change the music business with everything we’ve learned outside it and everything we need to unlearn within it,” says Siya “Slikour” Metane, Founder of SOL Distro and SlikourOnLife.
Artists collaborating on Summer of Visuals include Blaklez, Jay Jody, Dusse Wavy, Roii, Touchline, Given Kanu, and DJ Stresser.
