M.I Discovers New Rapper In Owerri
When 23 year old Golden Chinedu Okafor stepped into Hero Square Owerri for the annual Star Music Trek, he had only three things in mind. 1: To hang out with his buddies, 2: Have a couple of drinks on them. 3 Watch some of the greatest performers in Africa.
1
hour later Golden, a.k.a X Busta was performing on stage WITH one of
the greatest artistes artistes in Africa MI.The proverbial opportunity of a lifetime.
Golden, encouraged by his friends, had the ‘golden’
opportunity to freestyle on stage just like many other upcomers who
came to show their talent. But after witnessing his performance, Gbenga
Adeyinka, the gregarious MC who isn’t easily impressed, quickly promised
to personally introduce him to M.I when the prolific rapper eventually
got on stage.
The 400 level
student studying Estate Management at Imo State University who also
happens to be the Director of Socials of his institution is an amazing
bundle of talent, spitting lyrics viciously and free styling in a unique
and appealing way which caught the attention of thousands of music fans
at ‘The Trek’ as well as Chocolate City boss, MI.
M.I
called Busta to join him on stage during his set; allowing the young
rapper freestyle before the thousands of fans at Heroes Square.
The rapper without hesitation removed his jacket handing it over to the elated upcomer… perhaps passing over a mantle??
“Music
is seriously what I want to do for a lifetime,” the young man says
emphatically. “It’s what I’m passionate about and to have this boost so
early on…it’s unbelievable,” he added.
Well
there’s no doubt that MI’s evocative prayers for him on that stage will
certainly prove to be an enormous boost as he proclaimed to X Busta
with a bow “May God keep you, may God bless you. Everything I have
achieved will be your beginning.”
Busta,
apparently ,is yet to step off cloud nine “It’s about the most unreal
thing in the world. I don’t know anybody here and I don’t know any
member of MI’s crew. One minute, I’m in the crowd chillin’ with my
friends and the next minute I’m right next to MI on stage, performing Nobody Test Me together.This is the stuff dreams are made of.”
And M.I has promised to ‘‘stay in touch’’ with his new friend. Will he sign him to Chocolate City?
