If you haven’t heard of Blak Jesus by now then its obvious you’ve been living under the rock. But seriously, If you’ve got your ears on the Nigerian Music scene especially in the States you will no doubt have heard of lyrically acclaimed man of the moment Blak Jesus giving us a fusion of yoruba hooks and hip hop lyrics.

Having now raked over half a million video views on youtube alone, He’s biggest break came with the African Rendition of “Rich Boy’s Throw Some D’s”

He is no doubt a funny character, Just check this excerpt from his official myspace page

it was destined that he was gonna be great; I mean, c’mon…look at the similarities…He was born in Woodhull, Jesus was born in a manger….doesn’t take a janitor to figure out. He was really glad to have been born in NY, a place only second to heaven..but alas….he was viciously transfered to a place only second to hell…Delaware!….Actually He was taken to Nigeria to be raised and trained and skilled. He came back after a while and started school. While in school, he realized he had the ability to make people laugh He never felt it was enough to put himself out there, but it was something destined to happen. After a while, he used his God-given talent to get away with a lot of things, and to get the ladies to open up to him…literally. But in all seriousness, Blak Jesus is a really sweet, funny, and responsible man that everyone has grown to love. U can give him a chance and trust me, the only thing you will regret is having to laugh on a constant basis.

Right now Blak Jesus is on the American - Naija Club circuit doing gigs up and down. He’s a very much sort after MC and I won’t be surprised to see him make the Christmas trip most Nigerian artists make home every year.

Most recently though he has been seen mcing at the Nigerian Entertainment Awards, the So So Selective party and his latest his video which is a full blown track with other up and coming Nigerian artists titled Olomoge
