Early Life & Education
Masterkraft was born on the 28th of July, in the late 80s, in Lagos State. He hails from Enugu State, which falls in the southeastern part of Nigeria. During his childhood, he had a passion for becoming an accountant. He went to Ajeromi Ifelodun Local Government School in Lagos State for his primary school education, where he also did his common entrance examination and was later offered a scholarship by the government due to his excellent result.
Due to the ignorance of his parent on the importance of education, they rejected the scholarship opportunity, which later shattered Masterkraft’s passion of becoming an accountant. He lost his father when he was very young and had to struggle so hard to cater for himself and his family.
Career
At a very young age, Masterkraft began an exceptional career as a DJ by performing in the junior choir for his church. In 2009, Masterkraft signed a contract to become an official DJ for Kennis Music, one of the biggest record labels in Nigeria. Even after meeting Nigeria’s most well-known rapper, MI Abaga, who later introduced him to Banky W, another prominent figure in the music industry, he didn’t give up on his efforts.
Masterkraft gained greater popularity and produced a number of top hits in Nigeria, including “Jasi” by Bank W, “Girl” by Bracket featuring Wizkid, “Fine Lady” featuring Lynxx and Wizkid, and many more. After collaborating with Yoruba rapper CDQ to produce the popular track Indomie by Olamide, he gained additional notoriety.
