Encompassed with talent, Folarin (Falz) who also has a comic personality ventured into the movie industry and in no time clinched “Best Actor in a comedy” award at the Africa Magic Viewer’s Choice Award (AMVCA) 2016 for his character “Segun” in the series “Jenifa’s Diary” edging out old existing and top actors like Bishop Umoh and IK Ogbonna which makes him the first Nigerian musician to win the award.

No other word describes Falz better than “gifted” as he has been consistent over the years gaining international recognition and winning top notch awards both as a musician and an actor like Viewer’s Choice Best New International Act at the 2016 BET Awards, Best Collaboration at the Headies 2016 Award, Best Actor in a Comedy at the Africa Magic Viewer’s Choice Award (AMVCA), Album of the Year at City People Entertainment Award and many more.

With pressing issues craving solutions in the Nigerian society, Falz has been able to lend his voice to speak out against wrongdoings with songs like Wehdone Sir and This is Nigeria: drawing his inspiration from Childish Gambino’s “This is America”.

For an intelligent artist with a unique style of music, Falz is definitely on his way to becoming an African legend whose music would still have an impact over the years to come.

Absolutely agree. He makes socially conscious music that no other artiste is really making at the moment. And if history is anythng to go buy, these are the songs that become timeless. Not the 'are you gonna dance oh if i show you my wallet' crew.

not like those vain repetitions that all those weed smoking artiste call hits or song.


or saying crap on top good beats.
