About Desquad
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My boarding school days, when my friends and I would play songs in the hostel and sing along together. Those moments were loud, fun, full of energy and the experience shaped my love for music and the kind of connection I want my own songs to create.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bayanni, Love & Hustle - EP Llona, Homeless Ruger, RU The World Each one connects with me differently, Ruger’s bold delivery, Llona’s honest and reflective storytelling, and Bayanni’s balance of love and ambition. They’ve influenced how I shape my sound, especially in expressing emotion.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Big Mama (feat. DMOFFICIAL & Wizparty)” Working with DMOFFICIAL and Wizparty brought a unique vibe, and the chemistry on the track made it feel natural and fun. It’s special to me because it captures both connection and collaboration.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Watching my colleague Fiyana record her part on the “Distance Remix" right in front of me. Her performance was so powerful it made me reflect on myself as an artist, it pushes me to improve, changed my mindset and motivated me to be more serious.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Building a strong, structured team around my music. I want to grow into the greatest artist to come out of Northern Nigeria, not just through talent but with the right support and vision. That goal drives everything I do as an artist.
