Do You Think Banky W Is All Jidenna Wishes To Be? #YankyBanky

We can all agree that R & B singer and CEO, Empire Mates record label, Banky W and Jidenna Theodore Mobisson, known professionally as Jidenna, a Nigerian-American recording artist signed to Wondaland Records has some similarities and lifestyle when it comes to their musical career. Well so we think.

In 2015, Jidenna released two singles, “Classic Man” and “Yoga”, promoting the label’s compilation EP The Eephus.

Banky W made his debut into the Nigerian music industry with his hit song, Ebute Metta. It was an instant hit especially because its tune was got from Rihanna’s Umbrella. Subsequently, the dude has since dropped hit songs

Jidenna says that his music is inspired by Nigerian music, specifically the Highlife music genre.

“Every album I’ve ever put out has been largely based on my life and personal experiences, at the time, or at least on things I’ve witnessed and been inspired by. “Undeniable” the EP, was my first project so the music was inspired by the life I was living at that time and the things I was going through.” – Banky W
