Nigerian rapper Onome Onokohwomo, professionally called Yung6ix, has said he is presently the only rapper in the country, he added that no other artiste is doing rap music.
He said this during an Interview on HipTV, adding that there was no rap artiste like him in Nigeria.
Yung6ix mentioned 50 Cent, Jay Z, Lil Wayne and Kanye West as the foreign rappers that inspire him.
In his words:
“I am the only rapper in the country right now, I can’t see anybody doing modern day rap music apart from myself. It’s just the truth. It’s just the fact. They don’t do it like I do it.”
When they want to give awards, they keep us out of it. First of all, which other rapper from south-south has been doing this for the past ten years? I had a chance because I came into the industry under the right record label,”
