After tapping Africa’s biggest export Burna Boy for a remix that broadened his moment, Phyno followed up with a collaboration with British rapper Arrdee in what signals a move to partake in the “Afrobeats to the world”.
Phyno’s intentions are made even more clear with the release of his fifth album ‘Full Time Job’ which celebrates his longevity as one of Nigerian music’s most dynamic voices.
While the reticent rapper isn’t one to toot his horn, Phyno’s success is a blueprint and an inspiration for a generation of artists to combine rich Igbo cultural heritage with hip-hop, and Afrobeats to create era-defining music. Hence his monikers Ezege and The Godfather.
