The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced the performance line-up for the CAF Awards 2025, revealing singer Fuse ODG will be on stage.

Moroccan Douaa Lahyaoui and Congolese Awilo Longomba are the other musicians to appear alongside Ghanaian-British Fuse ODG, representing different eras and flavours of African music and culture.

The ceremony is scheduled to take place today, Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) in Rabat, starting at 8 PM GMT, and 7 PM local time. 

Fuse ODG came to mainstream notice through his viral hits Azonto and Antenna, feel-good music the Afrobeats legend has recently suspended in favour of activism and Afrocentrism. CAF promised Fuse would be "setting the night on fire" by "bringing his signature energy".

Douaa Lahyaoui was a contestant of The Voice Ahla Sawt season 5, who has made a name since for her pop music which is traditional Arabic music tastefully combined with pop and electronic dance music (EDM). 

Awilo Longomba, 63, has charmed the world with his festive sounds as a soukous singer-songwriter, drummer, dancer, and producer. CAF remarked on X that he was billed to bring "the legendary grooves" and "get the crowd moving".

Benin's five-time Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo will take to the stage as a presenter, seeing as "big nights deserve legendary voices".
