Ruggedman will be releasing his new album before the end of 2018 and he has some words for celebrities who don’t speak up for their fans.
Before the Internet became a main stay in the lives of Nigerian youths, Ruggedman in 2013 broke the airwaves with the release of his controversial single, Ehen.
On the song which featured the late singer, Nomoreloss, Ruggedman’s took shots at the leading characters in the Nigerian music industry at the point, names like Eedris Abdulkareem, Maintain, Rasqie and Black Masquerades were openly called out and nailed before the public cross for sins ranging from lack of originality and shallow lyrics.
With the accompanying music video, Ruggedman became the topic of every conversation and earned himself the title of the saviour of rap in Nigeria.
Across three solo albums, Ruggedman has blossomed into a force.
And after a quiet period where he says he has taken time to focus on his other business, the September 20th clothing line, the ‘Opomu Lero’ who recently put out the video for his single, Is Police Your Friend, is set to release a new body of work in 2018.
Speaking on his upcoming album
”I have been recording a lot of songs, it was just about some months ago that I discovered I had recorded over 30 songs, some finished, some unfinished and it is about time.
A lot of people have been asking, when are you dropping anything new… I have songs with and more.
I am not an upcoming artist that needs to drop a number of singles to lead to an album, so I really don’t have anything to prove, so the album is almost ready and will definitely be dropping before the end of the year.
You are all going to be surprised because I will be experimenting a lot on this project, it will definitely thrill you”.
