The history of Nigerian hip-hop music is always connected to local rap. For years, local rappers have been creating beautiful rap songs in the local dialect. As the diversity of local rap continues to increase, it is safe to say that local rap is a shortcut compared to the traditional hardcore rap style. Mr. Gbafun is another sensation who has come to the limelight with his smooth performance of local rap.
Mr. Gbafun’s resume
Akorede Ayantunji, better known as Mr Gbafun, is a Nigerian rapper from Lagos who sings mainly in the local dialect Yoruba. He came to the limelight with a series of songs and improvisations that caught the attention of the CEO of Street Billionaire Records, a record label under Chocolate City, who signed him to a record deal. Mr Gbafun’s love for rapping has kept him going.
Music career
Mr. Gbafun, like most talented rappers from the streets, started rapping at a very young age, hoping to make a mark in the rap world. After covering bad and boujee songs by US chart-topping trio Migos, Mr. Gbafun’s subsequent “Owo mi da” caught the attention of Chocolate City owner MI Abaga, who immediately offered him a lucrative record deal. He signed Gbafun to his record label along with Candy Bleakz, revitalized and rebranded the quartet, and then sent them on various radio and television promotional tours.
Recently, according to his latest work, there are rumors that he is no longer signed with Chocolate City because his latest song “Unfollow Wa” has him showing off another record label, Graunians Entertainment. To confirm this, the album cover of his latest work has the information of the new record label printed on it, but it has no connection with Chocolate City. It may be that his contract with the record label has expired, or he has a bad relationship with the record label and has left, but for now, we remain skeptical about this because the full story has not been leaked to us. We will update this information after gathering more information.
