Czure is a Nigerian born and raised producer/songwriter who currently lives in Houston Texas — home to some of the most talented Nigerians in the USA. Growing up in a music-loving household exposed him to the sounds of everyone from Fela to Dr. Dre from an early age. This without a doubt influenced his keen ear for, not just music, but “sounds” in general.

The ability to pick out the right tones is the hallmark of every producer’s sound and Czure definitely does this well! With over ten years of “music-making” experience tucked under his belt, its no wonder he is able to curate music that anyone can relate to.

Recently stepping into the spotlight as an artist himself, Czure has dropped a few singles that are actually rather impressive. The ability to wear numerous hats while creating gives him an unfair advantage if you will.

Listen below to his newest Afro-beat offering titled Dumb, I am hundred percent certain that this will move up the charts quickly.

Did you all hear about the death of Chima; the Mechanic that was Killed in Port Harcourt Nigeria by men who were said to be members of the Nigerian Police force? He was allegedly arrested and tortured to death just because he refused to offer bribe after he broke the traffic rule and drove on the wrong side of the road. The news sparked outrage in Port Harcourt and all social media platforms.

In the past few years, Nigerian youths have been harassed by some members of the Nigerian Police Force and given various unjust treatments including – illegal detention, torture, and false accusations. This has prompted the famous rapper, DR. Barz, to start a movement for youths, standing against all forms of human violence. “We are the voice to the voiceless youths, through music, art, and drama. We stand against all forms of Police Brutality in Rivers State and demand Justice For Chima and the Ikoku 4 as the law permits.” Dr. Barz also narrates the incident in a one minute video he put out on social media

They were allegedly tortured in police custody which led to the death of Chima. We hope with this video we have been able to tell the story of Chima Ikwunado, and the illegal detention of four others who were arrested alongside the deceased by the men of the Eagle (E) Crack for alleged car theft on December 19, 2019.

This is very Courageous and we want to commend DR. Barz for this. This is a way that music could be used to educate, spread information, sensitize and bring positive change. More artists should follow this lead to bring issues that have been swept under the carpet to the surface so that it could be addressed accordingly.

The Indianapolis local scene is booming with a lot of great African music and entertainment talents and it is so necessary that we begin to support and recognize talents to reinforce good behavior and appreciate hard work. As a community, this is not a choice it is an obligation. It will alsp ensure brand growth and development within the community. These are the main reasons for creating the Afrique Entertainment Awards.

Illgod is well Known for his Sampling, heavy drums, basslines, kicks, and loops. His style is different from anything you can find in Nigeria and Timi Kei really seizes the opportunity of a dope beat to educate folks.
