ICON is set to bring a new vibe to the Afropop genre to fans with the release of his first ever EP aptly self-titled ICON which is an acronym for “I Came Outta Nothing” which is due to be released in the first quarter of 2020.

ICON started his music career as a young teenage member of a boy group known as ‘Thug Angels’ (later called the Chronicles) he also competed in the famous Star Trek music competition in 2006. His quest for stardom has not been without his fair share of challenges and the many curve balls life
throws.

Along with the EP announcement, today also marks the release of his single from the EP, “CHUKWU” produced by music genius YEAR 1-2 premiering on all digital platforms worldwide.

CHUKWU which is also called A Hustler’s Prayer was inspired by a true life story. “The challenges and trials I faced made me come up with general lyrical view everyone can relate with. This song is very special to me because I felt every word in the lyrics and I had to express myself through my delivery”, ICON said. It’s a cool melodious vibe with a smooth delivery style that makes for easy listening. ICON will subsequently commence on a Radio and Club Tour regionally. Club venues and dates will be communicated shortly.

Thing’ plus a bit of Highlife and Afrobeat-inspired numbers. Listeners will find the EP to be rich in soul and melody. ICON is particularly impressed with the final outcome of all the songs on the EP. “I can’t even begin to believe that we could put this together and still maintain a consistent standard in the quality of the sounds on the EP. I am simply sponsored by grace”. ‘Goziem Nwuju talent manager at Kosyperry Talent Management Company “There is something about ICON that is indescribably different: and with his new project he has discovered what most musicians spend lifetimes working for – a place where feel-good music meets vital social commentary”.
