History

From an online video content channel, REDTV has pivoted into a media company with the formation of an on demand audio platform, RED RADIO - an online lifestyle web radio/podcast hub that brings music, entertainment, information, news, and trends to diverse audiences.[5][6][7]

REDTV is a platform known for showcasing modern African content, including TV shows, fashion, news, design, music, sports, and travel. With viewership in over 30 foreign countries outside Africa, REDTV collaborates with creative visionaries to produce content reflecting the continent's aspirations and values.

Since its launch, REDTV has aired shows like The Men's Club (Nigerian web series), Africa's Next Top Model, Assistant Madams, Inspector K, Our best friend's wedding, and on December 26, 2021, the channel launched its first feature-length movie, Unintentional (2021 film).[8][9][10]

REDTV has over 61,000,000 YouTube views and over 337,000 subscribers at September 2023.[11]
