XPERFORM, the dynamic talent competition created by MDLBEAST’s XP to discover the next generation of vocal talent from across the MENA region, will premiere its third season with an exclusive event at VOX Cinema on October 28, 2024.

Since its inception, XPERFORM has been pivotal in highlighting rising stars from the region, with previous winners like Asayel (2022) and AJ TRUTH (2023), but also participants such as DJMUBARAK going onto further their careers.
