Ghanaian music duo R2Bees are set to bring their high-energy Afrobeats and hiplife sound to the United States this summer with a headline performance at the iconic Howard Theatre.
The duo, consisting of cousins Faisal Hakeem (better known as Omar Sterling) and Rashid Mugeez, will perform on Sunday, June 28, 2026, as part of their “Refuse To Be Over” tour. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the show starting at 8:00 PM. Early bird tickets are now available through Ticketweb.
The announcement highlights the enduring appeal of R2Bees, who have built a global fanbase over more than a decade with hits blending Ghanaian highlife, hip-hop, and contemporary Afrobeats. The “Refuse To Be Over” theme nods to their continued relevance and a resurgence of interest in their catalog, particularly the track “Over,” which continues to resonate with both longtime supporters and newer audiences.
Promoted by Safcom Group and Mamusa Events, the evening promises a full live experience featuring fan favorites, high-production staging, and the duo’s signature charismatic delivery. The Howard Theatre, a landmark venue in Washington, DC’s Shaw neighborhood with a rich history in African American and international music, provides a fitting backdrop for the celebration of Ghanaian and broader African sounds.
R2Bees have earned acclaim for their dynamic stage presence and contributions to the evolution of Afrobeats on the world stage. This DC date forms part of a broader series of North American appearances, following recent international performances that have seen strong turnout and sing-along moments from diaspora crowds.
Fans in the Washington area and beyond can secure tickets now via the official Ticketweb link for the event. With limited early bird pricing available, organizers anticipate high demand for what is shaping up to be a major cultural night in the nation’s capital.
