Xander 042 started music  professionally few years back  and since then, he has dropped hit songs back to back and he consider the likes of Chris brown, 2face,  Justin Bieber, Davido, Wizkid as his role model and has also work with several A-list artiste.
Xander 042 whose passion for music, according to him is extra-ordinary, he is an artiste  to behold in the music scene, as he said “I’ve come to hold the industry by storm. My fans will enjoy my best all through the year.”
Honestly, it has not been an easy road for me, hence the journey started back in my secondary school days precisely jss1. I started my music career in a church choir because that was my addiction and hobby. I grew up with a love for music and today, I make music in my well equipped personal studio, and just before I knew it, friends and family started liking what I was doing, so for me, it’s a game of survival and only the strong survive, more especially when you’re consistent and know what you’re doing. I have been holding on to the struggle and this is where it has gotten me to as you all can see.
 As you can see, the Nigerian music industry is fast-growing and taking over globally. I intend to set the pace in putting my name on the map, for my legacy to be seen and be remembered by the next generations.

Lifestyle:

“As for me, I discovered that I was very passionate about singing, I love everything about music, and while I realized this, I put myself in that way – to learn more about the rudiments of singing, like perfecting my voice, make my own compositions, then look for who can produce a song for me, so I can bring my passion into reality
Xander 042  has worked with the following producers : Burning sound, k-black and Preclef.
Everyone has a talent. What individuals need is to discover it on time and work on it. Your talent may be crude as of the time of discovering, and this means that you have to nurture it. If there is a need for you to go back to school, you have to, and the reason for this is for you to refine your talent.
“Part of the refinement is to raise your standard, so you become marketable. For instance, for someone who has a talent in singing like me, you need to do voice training, learn how to play at least one musical instrument Then, have a good dress sense, wear your thinking and creative hat to be able to compose fine songs,” Xander 042 said.
He also charged the established practitioners to create space for the growing artistes, and be ready to help and support them, so they too can develop confidence to become great in the industry.
Xander 042  also appealed to the Africans and top players in the industry, especially from the corporate world, to further create means by which the youth can be supported in realizing their dreams, adding that many have been incapacitated by finances, the reason he said some of the youth go into odd jobs, as quick means to make ends meet.
Well my music is refined, very, commercial, Afro highlife classic fusion, and melodious for lovers of good music worldwide. And still talking about my style, I’ll say it’s very abstract from the rest, from the way I think to how I compose and write my lyrics, delivering,  attitude, confidence, message, live performance, etc, portrays my uniqueness, which you all my fans should watch out for.
 from Mgbidi Town in Awgu Local Government Area of Enugu State, but currently living in Houston Texas of United States of America.

Iyare Uwaifo – Reggae Star (EP)

0

A lion cannot beget a goat.

There’s no better way to describe Iyare Uwaifo, the first fruit of the Late Professor Sir. Victor Uwaifo of the joromi fame.

Iyare Uwaifo is a multi-talented Nigeria-born, US-based musician and the Chief Responsibility Officer of YAFOGENERAL ENTERTAINMENT USA.

The Nigerian music industry is about to inhale a new fresh breath as Iyare Uwaifo comes hot with the release of REGGAE STAR, an EP of 3 songs. NATTY BONGO, DEVILS FUNERAL AND LADY.
All songs were recorded at Mercy Studio USA and produced by Keville Rodney.

With his wealth of experience, music can never be a stranger to him as he was born into it and had the privilege to learn from the best.
It’s safe to say without a doubt that after many years of working underground, the multi-instrumentalist has done his homework and is ready to serve all lovers of good music some sweet Reggae music.

He studied music and Graduated from JOROMI ACADEMY OF MUSIC AND THEATRE ARTS founded by his father at the age of 19 years old, he was already a master of all the major instruments as he was the bass guitar player for his father, that was after he formed his first band called the SUSPECT in the early 90’s

He and his siblings traveled everywhere with their father and it was one of those tours that took him to the United States of America where he decided to stay and study for more knowledge.

In his words, even as a son to Prof. Sir. Victor Uwaifo, one of the greatest musicians out of Africa, growing up to become a big star in the city of Benin was still very rough and tough.
One of my best friends, the reggae powerhouse,  Righteousman can testify how the journey through thick and thin from villages to cities all over Nigeria playing music together was not a comedy show before finally he followed his father’s band on tour to the US in 1995.

For those wondering why reggae music instead of following his father’s successful brand. Iyare Uwaifo has this to say, music is a universal language and an expression of life experiences.
