Port Harcourt holds a place as the capital of Nigeria’s 2nd or 3rd most prosperous state depending on what day of the week. The capital city of Rivers is also home to a vibrant music scene that can boast of the likes of Burna Boy, Duncan Mighty, Omah Lay, Ajebo Hustlers, Nissi and Mr 2Kay. Coming next in this line of heritage is Lucky Obibi Oghnechawuko known by the alias L-Easy. Growing up on RnB & Hip-Hop, the Jay-Z, Pharell collab, Ambition became a fast favorite of his and inspired him to start writing his own music. By fusing classic Hip-Hop and RnB with Afro Beats as embodied on his new project, he sheds the frontlines and takes to his role as a Producer and Curator bringing an array of talented artists who all hail from Port Harcourt.
The debut project is a musical showcase of range, sonic fusion, and putting together different sonic soundscapes to create a diversified body of work. It beautifully blends an array of artists with different sounds all adding a layer of musical genius to each track. Telling us of his hopes for the project, L-Easy hopes that “when people listen to these records, they would not hear countries or religion or race but the universal language, so when they vibe to the songs from America to Jamaica and the motherland, they’ll vibe together with one voice, if that is achieved then his dream would have come true”.
