Born in Benin in Edo State of Nigeria to an Ibo dad and Yoruba mum, Ego! Started singing at a very tender age. She joined Lagbaja in 1994 as a back-up vocalist and with such hits like Konko Below, Nothing for you and Never far away, she became a household name.
Motivated by her love for music and desire to present herself and her type of music to the world, she recently graduated from Lagbaja's band after twelve years and has set up her own band called Indigo.
Ego has received numerous awards from different organisations amongst which are:
• Kim Lawani's Most Promising Female Act of the year at the Fame Music Awards in 1998
• The Best Female Vocalist of the year at the Hip-Hop World Awards in 2006
And numerous nominations for different Awards, just to name a few.
She has collaborated with artistes like Sunny Nneji, Djinee, Tosin martins, Ayanbirin, Blaise just to mention a few. She has also performed with Weird Mc, Asa, Cobhams and Yinka Davies.
An avid traveller, Ego! Has toured many countries. She likes cooking, dancing, swimming and generally hanging out with her husband and friends, but most importantly, she loves God with a passion.
Ego! Recently released her first single from her forth coming album titled ʽI BELIEVEʼ and its currently enjoying massive airplay on most radio stations in Lagos.
