Artist Bio
Innocent Ujah Idibia, a singer, songwriter, producer and record label boss is one of the most famous names to ever emerge from the Nigerian music scene. A trailblazer in every sense of the word, Idibia parlayed his humble beginnings at the Institute of Management Technology (IMT) Enugu, into an impressive, highly successful career that has spanned decades and crossed continents.
To pursue a music career properly, Idibia dropped out of school and moved to Lagos where he started performing with colleagues Augustin Obiabo and Chibuzor Oji, the trio would make up the bestselling pop group Plantashun Boyz. They released two successful albums before going their separate ways in 2004.
2face Idibia signed with Kennis music and his first studio record Face 2face was released to instant commercial and critical acclaim in 2004. Face 2face was the undisputed album of the year as it spawned one mega hit single after the other including the now classic, African queen.
After 2 albums, Idibia left Kennis music to set up his own Hypertek imprint. In his storied career, Idibia has emerged as one of Nigeria’s most beloved music stars. He is also the country’s most awarded music act.
