CKay, born Chukwuka Ekweani, has over the years become one of Nigeria’s most recognizable musicians with his music emerging from Nigeria and reaching global applause. Coming from a musical background, the singer-songwriter learned piano from his father who was also a choirmaster at the church they attended in Kaduna, Nigeria at a young age. As CKay progressed as a young musician, he formed a band called Cre8tive Music with friends, performing at shows in and around Kaduna while also learning music production. With the urge to pursue a music career growing stronger within him, CKay left home for Lagos but it wasn’t an easy decision to make.

‘My parents… never really saw music as a very stable career. I had to make the decision to either chase my dreams or regret them and spend the rest of my life thinking ‘what if’’.

In Lagos, the young musician would make ends meet as a producer, working in three recording studios. His big break came when he signed to the record label Chocolate City under which he would release his first single ‘Nkechi Turn Up’ in 2016 followed by the EP #WTFiCKay in 2017. It wasn’t until the release of the dance tune ‘Container’ in 2018, however, that he would gain the attention of musicians and fans alike. Asked about his approach to creating the song and its overall reception, the star responded:‘“Container” was not even a sound’. I’ve always been making love songs from the time, that was the music that got me signed in the first place… I think “Container” was an attempt to experiment. ‘Cos I like to try stuff out in the studio depending on my mood and I made that song; I was not even trying to make a song I was just having fun… I wasn’t really singing, I was just vibing but it dropped and was such a huge record. I mean, it’s so crazy cos the song didn’t have the craziest marketing, just love on the streets.’
