Biography
Michael Ikenna Ozigbo, also known as NazB, is an Afrobeats artist who hails from Anambra State in Nigeria and is based in Zurich, Switzerland. NazB’s genre of music is heavily influenced by the native culture of his homeland, as seen in the West-African references in his songs. NazB grew up in a home heavily influenced by the art of music. His family members, both immediate and extended, sang and played musical instruments, which made it almost natural for him to be a musician. He thus began making music at a very early age. His persistence and perseverance eventually gained him the nickname Nazodobas, which eventually evolved into NazB and became his rapper alias, Now Based in Zurich, Switzerland.
In his early teens, NazB began performing at local clubs and slowly he built up a loyal audience. He soon sadly realized that he was unable to gain the support of his beloved parents at that time, so to fulfil his dream of becoming a successful rapper, at the age of 18, he made a tough decision to leave his home to pursue his burning music dream. Thus began NazB’s journey around the world as he lived in the street life of Mali, The Ivory Coast, Ghana, Senegal, South Africa, Surinam and Brazil. Independence fuelled his passion, music held the torch, and his hard life and hardships not only moulded a spirit of resilience and hard work but the places also honed his musical vision and talents.
