Lil Kesh - “I am not doing hip-hop for those that understand English alone”

“Shoki” & “Gbese” singer. His advice to Nigerian rappers is to make indigenous music. Just like the kind of music done by himself, Reminisce, Phyno, Olamide and Dagrin who has made indigenous music a successful genre.


In his words.

“Put your culture into your rap then your fans will definitely listen to you. If you are an Igbo guy and you know you can put your Igbo dialect in to your rap, do it for your Igbo people.
I am not doing hip-hop for those that understand English alone; there are some people in Osun state, Abeokuta and Ibadan that don’t really understand English to a certain point.”
