He is young and does not make any attempt to hide his youthfulness. Dressed in a jean pant and All Star trainer, the young man pranced around the wide stage of O’jez celebrity handout, singing and rapping both in English and Yoruba languages.
He is the latest sensation on the nation’s music scene that is already bursting at its seams.
Arogundade Olaniyi Sikiru popularly called C.kror Superstar was born and raised in Isolo, under Oshodi/Isolo Local Government Council of Lagos State Nigeria but he is a native of Abeokuta, Ogun State.
C.kror Superstar is a talented artiste who despite his young age has been in the Nigeria music industry for some time now and has worked with many popular artistes. He recorded his first hit single, Alomo produced by K. Solo which featured Prince Banton of the House of Ginger Soldier, eight years ago. The artiste then left the shores of the country to Ghana in further pursuit of his music career.
Three years after, the youngster is back on the scene with another hit titled, ‘Omo Adugbo’ (Neighbourhood Famous).
“I want to promote this song because I am trying not to queue behind any other musician’s pattern. The song’s message is very clear and understandable, more so, the song is representing the neighborhood and it is for everyone who loves to be a proud son of his/her community. This is a brand new style of music that I am introducing to the Nigeria music industry,” he said.
And his plans for promotions and tour?
“C.kror Superstar is always ready to work with any record label or production house if they are willing and capable to handle the project, both album project and touring for show. We are also reaching out to contacts in Ghana, Burkina Faso and some other places in Africa where I have done some work with some artistes. The world will know when things start taking shape”, he stated.
He outlines the unique features in the video he just shot to be undiluted and original content.
“No film trick or excessive effect, making of the video represents day-to-day activities that happen in the neighbourhood both mine and yours and the team work of the management from manager to director, D.O.P and Editor. Everyone did their best towards success of the video.”
Chief Ebenezer Obey is his role model in music. He is also attracted to Alhaji Yusuf Olatunji while international music star Phil Collins makes up the list.
