For decades, Trace, the Afro-Urban cultural entertainment force with a 350 million fanbase has tirelessly created global media, digital and entertainment content platforms and the contemporary entertainment giant isn’t about to discontinue this trend.
This time, in partnership with Hennessy Nigeria, Trace rides on the Hennessy Artistry series to present a titillating three-part docuseries tagged ‘The Conversation’, featuring two of Nigeria’s finest hip-hop artistes, M.I., self-styled ‘Mr Incredible’ and Vector, a.k.a ‘The Viper’.
Award-winning hip-hop superstar, Jude Lemfani Abaga, better known as M.I Abaga, is seen by many as Africa’s biggest and most decorated rapper, with a plethora of hits like ‘You rappers should fix up your lives’, ‘Safe’, ‘Crowd mentality’, ‘Fast money Fast cars’, ‘One naira’, ‘Bullion van’, ‘Action film’, ‘Badbelle’, ‘Brother’ and so many more; while Olanrewaju Ogunmefun, better known by his stage name Vector, is a sterling Nigerian rapper and songwriter, who has released three studio albums including “State of Surprise” and “The Second Coming” and two mixtapes in 2016 and 2018, all in the effort to keep the spirit of Nigerian hip-hop alive. In some quarters, Vector too is seen as one of Nigeria’s greatest rappers. Some of Vector’s hit songs are ‘Gee boys’, ‘Adurah’, ‘Angeli’, ‘Wasted’, ‘King Kong’, ‘Judas the rat’, ‘Kanawan Dabo’, Lafiaji, ‘No peace’ and ‘Be happy’.
Exclusive to Trace on TV, the desideratum of this gladiatorial bout is to address the longstanding beef between both hip-hop artistes as to who is the better between them.
Both superstars took to social media to announce their participation in this epic melee to their respective audiences and since then, social media has gone wild with breathless anticipation.
