Nigeria’s most celebrated and decorated rapper M.I Abaga has released his long-overdue EP, “Judah.” Initially scheduled for release in October 9, 2019, M.I has finally made good on his promise by giving fans the project he has been teasing since last year.
This project was first announced in the heat of his highly publicized beef with Vector the Viper last year. In fact, its lead single was initially supposed to be ‘The Viper’, the dashing Vector-aimed diss track that threw his fans into an orgy of celebration.
This new project contains 8 tracks with appearances from some of the sharpest wordsmiths we have in these parts – Alpha Ojini, Kauna, and Buckyraw. It particularly guests a scene-stealing feature from AQ on the third track, ‘The Trinity’ which is already a fan-favourite.
Earlier today M.I also announced his departure from Chocolate City, a label he has called home for over 13 years. This project would also be his last under the label which is one of the biggest in the country. He also used the opportunity to unveil his own imprint, Incredible Music.
“There is a lot of truth in my new EP the “Judah EP.” I had a dream that CBN would be the greatest group the world had ever seen.. it was on me.. and today I announce my decision to finally let go and move on to something new! Thank you for your support and love for 13 years.. and if your still with me!! Let’s go.. please follow @imthetribe,” he posted on Instagram.
