One artist whose time under the sun has come is the rising star Mightyyout<\/strong>, whose talent has earned him a spot on the books of DWW HQ<\/strong>. <\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Being signed to a label is often a feat worth celebrating, and getting picked up by one floated by the iconic <\/mark>Afrobeats icon Davido<\/strong><\/mark><\/a> <\/strong>is by all means a big deal, especially when one considers some of the stars his label has helped propel to success. <\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

While Mightyyout <\/strong>might have just been getting into the consciousness of mainstream listeners, his music journey started in 2016 when he set out to make music professionally.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

\u201cSometime around 2016, when I got back to Lagos from Port Harcourt. That was when I knew I had to take music seriously and give it everything.\u201d<\/i><\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Although the journey started in 2016, Mightyyout didn\u2019t release his first song as a professional in 2022 as part of the MbaforAfrica compilation album.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

And while the process hasn\u2019t been an easy one for him, the process and the knowledge that he would someday win have kept him going.<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

\u201cI genuinely love the process. It hasn\u2019t been easy, but I enjoy every bit of the grind,\u201d <\/i>Mightyyout says on the journey.<\/mark><\/p>\n

\u201cWanting to get out of the trenches and make a living,\u201d <\/i>he adds, on the thoughts that occupy his mind while he painstakingly pursues his dreams.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n

\u201cBeing an emerging artist is really tough,\u201d<\/i> he says with a laughter that holds painful flashbacks and triumph of an artist who has endured challenges that led many to forfeit the dream.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

For emerging acts, talent is never enough, and Mightyyout perfectly understands this reality.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n

\u201cThe real struggle is getting heard. When all you have is talent, it\u2019s hard, especially without the finances to push it the way it should be.\u201d<\/i><\/mark><\/p>\n

In the face of these challenges, Mightyyout drew hope from the support of family and friends, and from the applause that met every release.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

\u201cFamily and friends. The support I\u2019ve received and the applause I get from every record keeps me going.\u201d<\/i><\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

This resilience would pay off when Davido heard his unreleased song in Jamaica and mistook him for a Jamaican.<\/mark><\/p>\n

\u201cSometime last year, Davido <\/strong>was in Jamaica for his wife\u2019s birthday. He heard an unreleased record of mine playing and thought it was a popping Jamaican artist. When he found out I was Nigerian, he was surprised. Shout out to Sir Banko<\/strong>, he was the one playing the record that day. Calls were made, and the rest is history.\u201d<\/i><\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

For Mightyyout, a lot is riding on his music, and the unfaltering confidence he has in his ability shines in his music he describes as a breath of fresh air.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

\u201cSomething unique that cuts across genres but still feels familiar\u201d<\/i> is what he calls his music, which holds the familiar fusions that define Afrobeats and continues to propel the genre and culture to new heights.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

To better capture the uniqueness of his sound, Mightyyout crafted a word he calls “Nchancha”.<\/i><\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a vibe of its own. Afro-dancehall with energy, flavour, and attitude. A lot of people think I\u2019m Jamaican because of how I sound,\u201d<\/i> <\/strong>he says about the sound and music that has won him a career-altering record deal.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

An artist who takes from Dancehall and interprets it with his cultural influences and Afrobeats, Mightyout drew inspiration from listening to the works of music icons Akon<\/strong>, Sean Paul<\/strong>, <\/strong>and 2face.\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

His latest single \u2018Paradise\u2019 <\/i>holds the sound with which he\u2019s aiming to impact the scene. Mightyyout describes the song as one that embraces freedom, which is a core part of his ideology.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/section>\n
