Lil Kesh is the latest Nigerian artist to grace the cover of upcoming edition of Mystreetz magazine.
The YBNL Nation rapper was the subject of controversy at The Headies earlier this year following him losing out on the Next Rated prize to Mavin Record’s Reekado Banks.
The latest edition of Mystreetz magazine explores that moment once again with the ‘Gbese’ crooner.
“That moment goes beyond who won and who did not. That moment revealed to us that the Nigerian music industry has transformed to a huge global village with unprecedented numbers of followers exchanging conversation in supersonic speed”, said Sesan Adeniji, publisher Mystreetz magazine.
“It was also an indication that the ‘Streets’ have become the major yardstick dictating who becomes endorsed, which artistes’ caller tunes transform organization’s account sheets into millions of Naira.
“That moment told us that the Nigerian music industry has suddenly become one of the most viable sectors in the socio-economic activities in the country.“
The artist whose real name is Keshinro Ololade became popular in the music scene following the release of his song titled ‘Shoki’. Lil Kesh was signed to Olamide’s record label YBNL Nation in 2014.
The magazine cover was shot by August Udoh. The February edition of Mystreetz magazine comes out at the end of the month.
