Where are Nigerian female rappers? As intense competition and battle for the queen of Hip-hop position continue, many of our chart topping female rappers are either out of the game or fading out. OMONIYI ALLI of The Trumpet ex-rays some of our supposed celebrated female rappers.

Bouqui

Bukola Folayan aka Bouqui, is a name that is in the memory of fans and history of Nigerian music. What bothers the mind now is if it can remain on the lips. She grew up in academic atmosphere and is full of Christian faith. This fact is obviously clear in her lyrics and composition. Her first album is called B.O.U.Q.U.I.

Almost all her songs immediately become hits. Bouqui has had plenty of tours in the UK and in the USA. Thus, she is internationally known. In 2013, she won the best Hip Hop Artiste of the year award. Her lyrics are very deep and thoughtful, that’s why her fans love her so much. Moreover, she is considered the first female to release a rap album in Nigeria.

Bouqui is a well-known gospel singer as well. Probably, this is the reason, why she has managed to avoid any possible scandals by now.

Celebrities have their time and one wonders if hers is beginning to close up as she no longer make headlines. Her style of music  apparently doesn’t concur with the trending style in Nigeria presently.

Kemistry

Kemistry

Kemistry Valerie Olukemi Olusanya was born in 1963. She was a very prominent musician and producer. She was one of the founders of Metalheadz label. She was born in the UK and died there at the age of 35 (1999). Her career started as make-up artist.

However, in the 1990s, she started DJing and also part of duo called Kemistry & Storm. Kemistry released mix album known as DJ-Kicks: Kemistry & Storm. The talented rapper died in a road accident. She was killed instantaneously. One of the singles by Goldie (who is the co-founder of the label) is devoted to this prominent musician. It is called Kemistry. The song “Kemistry” by Goldie on his album Timeless, is dedicated to Olusanya.

The song was released originally in 1992, as Goldie was in a relationship with Olusanya.

Eva Alordiah

Eva Alordiah

Nigerian rapper Eva Alordiah has reignited anticipation for her full debut studio album, 1960. The wait for the album has waned in the past months, having suffered several reshuffles, delays and push backs. The female rapper who bids to stay relevant in the industry has been fingered to be working hard enough. Releasing Video performance of “Mbali” featuring Yemi Alade off “1960” album, Eva features in Saeon’s “De Be”(Cypher) along with Ozone, Tesh Crter, YCee and A.T.

Despite Eva releasing a reworked version of her single ‘Kanayo’ featuring Phyno and Reminisce months ago, many believed the album might never see the light of day.

However, fans of the multi-talented rapper can finally begin to look forward to the release of 1960, as an August 13 release date has been tentatively earmarked. Eva teased a studio session with Femi Kuti and excitedly shared that the collaboration is expected to be on the album.

She parted ways with Knight House in February 2012 and established her own label, Cheddah Music. Since then she has been trying to promote her brand and music. The regular upcoming acts in the industry seem to have drawn the attention away from Mo’Cheddah as well.

The Rapper and singer is yet to make a hit as massive as her previous ones as she seems to be fading away slowly and loosing grip of her fans. Her recent songs include ‘Let Me Love You’ Produced by Mosa and ‘Survive’ produced by Cobhams Asuquo. Both tracks were released in this year, 2016.
