Nigerian born and raised artist Akuchi Amadi Osayaba, aka Akuchi, shares motivational hip-hop production “No Games,” rooted in a powerful message of determination and a refusal to play games in the music industry.
An empowering number built on an expansive soundscape that pushes genre boundaries, the track showcases a fresh and innovative sound that emphasises the unity present in all forms of music and human experiences.
Speaking of the track, Akuchi says, “I wrote ‘No Games’ in a tiny apartment in Lagos, Nigeria. I felt like a rebel making this song; I remember them telling me to avoid what they call ‘foreign music’ if I want to blow.As someone born and raised in Nigeria, I know that in Nigeria there is a little box that everyone struggles to squeeze into, but I’m a musician with a global aim, and I’ll put a finger in whatever box I choose.”
Led by versatility and a conscious decision to carve out his unique path in the music world, Akuchi’s artistry encourages us to break free from constraints and play by our own rules.
