PHYNO

Although a native of Anambra State, Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike was born and raised in Enugu State. His stage name, given to him by one of his high school friend, was derived from the word phenomenal. Phyno developed an interest for music production during his secondary school days. He initially wanted to become a pilot, but was told he could be a doctor. Throughout secondary school, he learned to play the drums and piano. He also learned to create his own rendition of every recording he heard. He studied public administration at the Institute of Management and Technology in Enugu, and started profiting from music during his second year there. Phyno told Ifeoma Onoye that Mr Raw is one of the few people he looks up to. Phyno started rapping in 2010 and relocated to Lagos to further his music career.

Phyno began recording his debut studio album No Guts No Glory in 2012. The album features guest appearances from Stormrex, Omawumi, Olamide, Efa, P-Square, Timaya, Flavour N'abania, Mr. Raw, MI, Ice Prince and Runtown. It was primarily recorded in Igbo and Nigerian Pidgin. On 25 September 2012, he released the Olamide-assisted "Ghost Mode" as the album's lead single. It won Best Collabo at both the 2012 The Headies Awards and 2013 Nigeria Entertainment Awards. The music video for "Ghost Mode" was released on 7 December 2012. It was shot and directed in Lagos by Clarence Peters. Sputnet Records released the album's second single "Man of the Year (Obago)" on 23 March 2013. The song won Best Rap Single at the 2013 Headies Awards. The music video for "Man of the Year (Obago)" was uploaded onto YouTube on 20 August 2013. It was also shot and directed by Clarence Peters in Abakpa Nike, and features a cameo appearance from Illbliss. In September 2013, the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation banned the music video from being broadcast.

The album's third single "Parcel" was released on 11 October 2013. It was originally titled "Parcel (a BIG Nwa)". The music video for "Parcel" was shot by Clarence Peters and released on 19 February 2014. "O Set" was released as the album's fourth single on 4 March 2014. The song was produced by WizzyPro and features vocals from P-Square.[14] The music video for the song was directed by Jude Engees Okoye.[15] On 22 May 2014, Phyno released the music video for "Alobam", which was directed by Clarence Peters. Produced by Major Bangz, the song is an Igbo slang for "My Guy". On 2 September 2014, Phyno released the video for his "Authe (Authentic)" song with Flavour. On 7 October 2014, he released the Major Bangz-produced "Yayo". It debuted at number 8 on the Pulse Music Video charts. The Clarence Peters-directed music video for the song premiered on 5 January 2015. Opeoluwani Akintayo of The Daily Times of Nigeria gave the video an overall rating of 8 out stars of 10, commending its use of props.

Phyno's collaborative album with Olamide, titled 2 Kings, was released on 1 April 2015. Both rappers went on social media to announce plans for the album's release.

In June 2013, Phyno performed for 25 minutes in Owerri as part of the Star Music Trek tour. He toured with D'banj, Burna Boy, Chidinma, Vector, Pucado, Seyi Shay, Show Dem Camp, Kay Switch and Sean Tizzle as a supporting act on the 2013 Hennessy Artistry Club Tour. He performed at the 2014 edition of the Star Music Trek tour in Nsukka, Enugu State.

In November 2015, Phyno started a Festival titled Phynofest and picked the Chuba Ikpeazu stadium in Onitsha, Anambra State with an attendance of 12,000 people . The following year Phyno moved the venue of Phynofest to Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium Enugu in essence taking his festival back to the city he started his music career with an attendance of over 30,000 people featuring a star studded line up P-Square, Onyeka Owenu, Olamide, Mr Eazi, Lil Kesh, M.I, Burnaboy, Kcee, Zoro and Patoranking.

In November 2017, Phyno brought Phynofest back and put together the biggest concert in Africa by an Artiste at the Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium Enugu with an attendance of over 50,000 people . He had a mouth watering line up of star acts D'banj, Yemi Alade, Timaya, Runtown, Zoro, Ycee, Flavour, Lil Kesh, Mayorkun and Duncan Mighty.

In March 2019, Phyno announced plans for the release of his third studio album Deal With It. It has been supported by two singles: "Agu" and "The Bag". The album features guest appearances from Olamide, Falz, Davido, Don Jazzy, Zoro, Runtown and Teni.

mrvitalis:

Are you high ? Which olamide ? Phyno was already big in the east just like olamide in the west ...the collaboration brought them to the others base not that olamide made phyno

Olamide is big in Africa

Until Phyno himself can come out to say Olamide didn't help his life, then I will take you serious

Stop fight wrongly for phyno

Wintertime:
You afonjas are something else


Both of them sang ghost mode which it was even Phyno that sang the song and featured Olamide

This help pass a message in the music industry, that afro and culture could be use well


Meanwhile phyno has other blasting songs

Just that to give Africa culture a sense of belonging

Phyno sang more culture rap and featured Olamide who also rap in culture

Giving Africans and Nigeria especially a chance to listen to rap in culture.

Meanwhile before meeting Olamide for ghost mode

All phyno music was a hit back to back on a non stop radar

Mind you, phyno himself was a music producer before he tow the line of releasing his own songs..

And phyno is a legend on his own, with or without Olamide

But both of Olamide and Phyno singing even gyrated other artists to fall back to culture

Phyno has featured other artists like mi and Burna boy back down years back on link up


So if Davido features Olamide,

You lot will come out and say Olamide help Davido

But I know you afonjas fill of tribalism reason only on the stem of tribalism

Or did Olamide signed Phyno

Rubbish and Ingredients

Funnily enough, Phyno himself cannot talk this shit

Did Olamide sign portable?

You don't have to be signed before being helped

Phyno was nobody before he met Olamide who helped him
If Olamide did not help him,there will be no need for the question in the first place

Simple and short

Never help an Igbo man, they will turn against u

SisterFire:
...phyno sanged multiply with mi flavour ,
And anamachikwanu with illbliss 2 years before olamide sanged omotosho..
He was brought to lime light by illbliss .
Phyno befriended olamide because he wants to .

Nobody knows Phyno until Olamide helped his life

I did not say he has not been singing,
Many musicians feature celebrities yet they are not known, I'm very sure, many Igbo guys have featured Phyno now that he is Celeb now but they still didn't blow

Olamide help Phyno,he brought him into limelight

One thing be say, if you blow today, your old music wey no blow before, go blow

pinkgoodies:


Shatap. Stop saying shits u don't know. He sang shutdown and multiply ft M.I and Mr raw way b4 2012. All these songs were hits in d streets from SS to SE. Were even played on Hiptv and MTV base. So wat limelight are u talking about?

You want to argue, but I don't have your time

Portable as also been single andknown in his family house before Olamide helped him

Same as Phyno, he has been singing and all his friends in village knew him till Olamide helped his career. Today, there will be no Phyno if not for Olamide that God used for him...

Bye, even if you mention me 50 times, I won't reply again

DenewLegends:
I'm real and I must tell you that phyno is self made.
No one really made phyno.

I heard a lots of people imposing phyno success on Olamide while some claimed that ill-bliss was the one who made him.

I have come to end the long confusion by Assuring you that Phyno is a legend who narrowly succeeded in the entertainment industry after so many years of struggling to move to the Top.

Thank you all... loved

Phyno himself cannot say this

Olamide brought him into limelight just like portable

Allahmuzayaf:

Where should it be?
Religion?
Lol

Even God do pass this one when he impregnated Mary,lol
They are doing God's work,but on a serious note all these pastors dey use their members head, imagine one lady go come carry herself give pastor to bathe and touch her recklessly,lol

Boko Haram

He is not a pastor

He is a ghanian actor, he hate Christianity and does all sort of stuffs to demean Christianity

All planned, his fellow actors have cast him many times

GreatBoss:






Burna boy is Ijaw.

Yes his dad is Ijaw though

Burna boy - Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu son of Bose Ogulu. His mom is Yoruba (Yoruboid), his mother is behind his music career...

Oluwaburna

Wow! Igbos can argue for Africa

They argue Yoruba domination in Music when it's so obvious
Wizkid, Davido, burna boy, Fireboy, Olamide, Ladipoe, lil kesh, Adekunle Gold, Zlatan, Kiss Daniel, Asake, Mr Eazi, Reekado, Zino, Naira Marley etc

Tems, Ayra star, Tiwa, Simi, Nini, Teni, Yemi Alade etc

They argue Yoruba domination in movies when it's so obvious

Funny enough Edo, Ijaw and Urhobos even beat igbos hands down in music, movies and sport

House will not generate revenue, industries and company will

I dont understand ur post

When it comes to scam and prostitution in Nollywood movies they use igbos and they are always happy to be used

Is Niger Delta is bone of contention here ?

Stop drifting around

Sonyboom765:
All of a sudden because igbos are no where to be found in the banking industry it is now promiscuous industry.

Visit any bar hotel or olosho joint from Badagry Ajah VI Sangotedo Ikeja Abule Egba Ikorodu Ojuelegba Ikoyi come back n tell which tribe dominant the olosho trade if it is not Igbos. You can simply join tinder n get frustrated trying to hook up any girl that is not Igbo, that is when you will know this tribe is on the path of perdition.

Don't mind them

IMO girls dey like to do, ke do, ke do

Even most sexually oriented part of jokes, comedy, movies is always towards Igbo girls

Benchilwell:
continue, a time will come,u will need a help from d tribe u hate.

Nobody hates any tribe
De thing be say, una too dey beat chest

TheNiceGuy:
