eLDee The Don
In 1998, eLDee and his high school friend, “Kaboom” teamed up with “Freestyle”, and the group Trybesmen was born. Subsequently, eLDee founded his own independent label, Trybe Records, to support the group, and took the Nigerian music scene by storm with hits such as “Trybal Marks”, “Shake Bodi”, “Work it out” and “Oya”. With an incredible blend of Afro beat, Reggae, Highlife and hip-hop, and over 78 sold-out shows in one year, eLDee, as the head of Trybesmen and Trybe Records, re-engineered what has now become the music genre most call Afro-hiphop/Afro-pop/Afro-beat or contemporary Nigerian music.
The album “Return of the King” marked the beginning of eLDee’s impressive solo career which has seen 4 albums, over 50 major award nominations, and critically acclaimed singles like “Im leaving”, “I go yarn”, “Champion”, “African Chiquito”, “big boy”, “Ota mi”, “One day”, “Bosi Gbangba”, “Higher”, “Wash-wash”, and "We Made It" airing on radio stations all over the world. eLDee’s robust resume includes his work as an artist, producer, video director and a cutting-edge interactive media consultant for Fortune 500 international brands such as CNN, D3 Publishing, Hines, Accenture, Andersen, Kimberly Clark, Naruto, Primedia, NBA, UPS, Cartoon Network, Consumer Source, and Warner Bros, just to name a few, with numerous national and international awards for design and new media campaigns.
In addition to his numerous accomplishments as an artist and businessman, eLDee is very passionate about the current state of Africa and is one of the few outspoken Nigerian celebrities when it comes to social issues. His passion is evident in his activism towards social change. eLDee’s thirst for sustainability in Africa is also evident in his music as with each album, he hammers on real issues and seeks to motivate/inspire fans to greatness. eLDee hopes to inspire a new generation towards a more sustainable Africa through his musical works and was recently featured on CNN for some of his social campaigns. Radio and video charts are incomplete without eLDee and with just under 1,000,000 fans across social media platforms, he still stands as one of the most promising Nigerian artists on the music scene today.
