HAYWIRE heralds in a era of Nigerian artists. Born Ifeanyi Chuks Okoli he's aptly known as 'HAYWIRE' for his genre bending delivery; seamlessly transitioning from an intoxicating electric rap flow - communicating the gritty reality of urban African living, slipping smoothly into R&B inspired vocals - singing out poignant messages in English and Pidgin to the initiated.
At just 18 years old he's already notched up 8 years in the underground scene collaborating with the likes of Wizboyy. Chordratic Beats, Rapkyd, Profound, O.C Nicotine, J.O, Na Sir, Lil Kem, Seriki, Akas, Teshwaty. It is with producer Chordratic Beats that he steps out from under, instantly clicking and delivering music that is beyond their years and musical boundaries.
This first offering, a 4 track EP signifies the evolution of Afrobeats - focusing more on lyrics than beats - the Nigerian voice is being raised.
Kicking off with the a club banger 'Getting You' right through to the soulful cry for help in 'Save Me'. Sandwiched between is the bonus track 'Malo' - a real party song - and the throw down and title track 'Right Now'.
As Chuck D said "music for your mind and your feet".
