EXCLUSIVE : Artiste Of The Week

23 year old Mobolaji Odojukan, popularly known as BOJ, is the poster boy of Nigeria’s Alternative Music. BOJ defies the notion that alternative music is not for everybody, as he shares a fan base with his Hip-hop, Afrobeat and Afropop contemporaries. His signature voice delivers lyrics effortlessly in an unmistakable style unique to him.

                    

Despite the obvious parallels between BOJ's sound and the music he listened to while growing up, he finds it difficult to mention any particular artiste that influenced his style of music; and till date, his sound cannot be compared to that of another artiste from the past or present.

In 2013, BOJ was nominated twice as a featured artiste in the Best Alternative Song category at the Headies Award. He later bagged a solo nomination in the same category the following year, and won the award for his song 'BOTM' (BOJ On The Microphone).

BOJ has graced the stage at some of the biggest events in Nigeria and abroad, including USA, Canada and England where he was born. He is signed to HF Music Nigeria.
 His latest single which he featured Nigeria's top rapper Olamide 'wait' is already enjoying massive acceptance .
