Let’s take a look at the top 4 on our list today.

PHYNO


Phyno began his career as a music producer, collaborating with musicians such as Illbliss and Nigga Raw, among others. Phyno went on to become a recording artiste, releasing his first album, ‘No Guts No Glory,‘ in 2014, and hasn’t looked back since.

TEKNO

Tekno Miles is one of the most talented music producers in the Afrobeats genre. Tekno is the man behind Davido’s ‘IF,’ that is one of Afrobeat’s greatest songs, among many others.

Tekno has had a lot of success as a musician, with a lot of hit songs. He is still regarded as one of Afrobeats’ most recognized sound changers and consistent hit makers.
