Essentials: Killervybez opens a new chapter with ‘Highstar$’ EP

 

Killervybez also known as Oluwatosin Esomojumi Collins might be considered a newcomer in the mainstream music scene but he’s been around, earning his stripes as one of the exciting, emergent rap stylists in Afropop music. Born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria’s second largest slum, Killervybez has steadily learned the art of incorporating the daily challenges of his community into his songwriting. His story is not majestic or lavish, rather it’s a dark side with a hint of hope for a better tomorrow.

Making a menacing entrance in 2020 with Marlian Riddim,” he displayed his raw ability to make every beat ring out with a purpose. While the Drill hype was at large taking over Africa, Killervybez made his official debut with Girl,. On an ominous beat, he sang along to the drill melodies as he tried to find his place and sound in the scene. Just as a seed needs nurturing to flourish into a flower, Killervybez’s craft required polishing. It was not until he releasedMill$,, that turned a couple of heads in the city. It was finally clear Killervybez had found his flow and the perfect production. The drill beat was inspired by the dusty feel and thudding knock of ’90s east coast rap, giving life to Killervybez’s husky voice, his unique selling point from the jump.
