Presh trades engineering for music, Afrobeat roots take flight

Canada-based petrochemical engineer Precious Ebie Onungwe ditched his day job to chase music full-time back home in Nigeria. The artist goes by Presh, dropped a debut single already, and has an album dropping before the year wraps up. He teamed up with producer D-Tuns because the guy has worked with major Nigerian hip-hop acts, and Presh thinks their combo can push something that hits worldwide instead of just local markets.

Presh said his whole vibe centers on African culture since he wants people to feel the continent in every track he makes. He stays completely sober when creating music and plans to shoot a collab video with Mr. Real right after finishing the audio. The competitive Nigerian music scene means he built a whole crew of producers and cinematographers to handle promotion and stand out from established names.
