Dvpper Digital Reinforces Its Position as a Leading Force Within African Music with TML Vibez & Rybeena Africa Now Covers

Dvpper Digital continues to assert its influence as one of the premier distribution companies within the African music business. Since its inception in the late 2010s, the company has played a critical role in the distribution of some of the continent’s most inventive musical projects since the turn of the 2020s, establishing itself as a key force in shaping the trajectory of contemporary African music.

With the commencement of 2025, Dvpper Digital has maintained its momentum, facilitating major releases and securing strategic placements that speak of the company’s significance within the industry.

Earlier this year, the company was instrumental in the distribution of Pawon Boy Vol. 1 Deluxe, the chart-topping mixtape by TML Vibez and DJ 4kerty. The project, which secured the #1 spot on multiple charts including TurnTable Charts’ Official Top 100 Nigerian Albums, benefited from Dvpper Digital’s extensive network and strategic approach to distribution.

In addition to ensuring widespread availability across major streaming platforms, the company successfully placed the mixtape in relevant promotional spaces, amplifying its reach and reception. One of the most notable achievements tied to this release was TML Vibez’s selection as the cover artist for Apple Music’s Africa Now playlist — joining the likes of Davido, Seyi Vibez, Shallipopi and more as Afrobeats stars to grace the cover in recent times.

Building on that success, the company has facilitated yet another significant release with Virtuoso, the latest mixtape from rising artist Rybeena. Released on March 6, Virtuoso has garnered positive reviews, with Rybeena’s talent receiving attention from listeners across the continent.

The mixtape’s reception further reinforces Dvpper Digital’s ability to identify and support artists whose music resonates with a broad audience. Rybeena’s selection as the cover artist for Africa Now marks the second consecutive time that a Dvpper Digital-distributed artist has occupied this prominent space, further highlighting the company’s ability to position its releases effectively within the global streaming ecosystem.

Operating as a subsidiary of Dapper Group, Dvpper Digital is led by Senior Vice President Ademola Alugo, who Rybeena credited for his discovery during his Apple African Now Radio interview last week; “shout out to Ademola [Augo], for discovering and believing in my song Id.Me before anyone else,” the “World Best” crooner shared with Nandi Madida.

Through a combination of strategic foresight, industry relationships, and a keen understanding of audience engagement, Dvpper Digital has consistently ensured that its releases receive the visibility and positioning necessary for commercial success.

The company’s continued ability to deliver results speaks to its firm grasp on the evolving landscape of African music distribution. At a time when digital platforms dictate much of the music consumption process, Dvpper Digital’s approach, defined by precision, consistency, and inventive strategy, has allowed it to remain a dominant force in the industry.

With each successful release, the company cements its reputation as a crucial partner for artists looking to maximize their reach within and beyond the African continent.
