SOUND SULTAN THE ENIGMATIC

If one is following the Nigeria music industry from the original epoch, one will nothing but agree that there are some people who have actually struggle for the stable of hip hop and R & B in Nigeria. To me these people are Legend or how would you describe them to the world if not calling them legend? Or would someone deny the consistence of the man called SOUND SULTAN in the music industry; a man who actually took a keen interest in music in 1991.

Sultan is one of these legends and his impacts cannot be underestimated in Nigeria music industry. Via peeping into his journey, one would concur that he is not just an artiste but a mercenary in the industry that keeps the industry going due to his desire for it.

Born Olanrewaju Fasasi, a graduate of Geography and Regional Planning from the Lagos State University, Ojo, Lagos. 

 Sultan is one the successful acts in Nigeria who have not just played music but also laid a good temperament for other people to emulate. Let me take you back to 2001 when he released his first album titled Kpseeeeeeew, what about his second in 2004 “Compulsory Text book” where we found hit single like MATHEMATICS. In 2007, Sultan released another album titled Naija 007, 2008 was titled SS4, 2010 was Back to The future (Mission 2010) and 2012 was Me, My Mouth and Eye.

Sound Sultan has also built a strong relationship with a lot of artistes most especially a renowned International artist “Wyclef Jean”. He had featured the artiste on some of his projects like King of My Country (2009) and People Bad (2012). Due to his realistic delivery style which is unique and his exemplary life in the industry, sultan was made a UN ambassador in 2007.

Sound Sultan has created and laid a landmark in the Nigeria Music Industry which cannot be eliminated even if he decided not to play music again. Truly, he is a legend who has relly helped a lot of young act in the industry to define their sense of direction in the industry a good example of that was SEAN TIZZLE.

A man with dignity in the industry; he has been respected by lot of people in the Nigeria Music Industry and with that alone he deserves to be a Legend of our generation.
