Meet the Four Horsemen

DJ AB

Widely regarded as one of the most talented Musicians in Northern Nigeria, DJ Ab has done much to carve a niche for himself for the past couple of years branded by the unique Hausa flavor alongside his friends YNS (Yaran North Side). READ MORE HERE

DJ AB has numerous hit tracks to his name feeding the streets with street slangs such as “Su baba ne, baban yaya, Da son Samune”

PROJECT APPEARANCE: 240, BUROUBA, Real Sh*t & T4HM CYPHER

B.O.C MADAKI

The most complete Hip-hop artist list in Northern Nigeria will be regarded as a fool’s list without B.O.C Madaki topping the list. Just like Classiq, the Dread-styled rapper hails from Bauchi State repping the North-East region. He is popular among his peers as a deep lyricist both in Hausa and English dialect. He is also known for these street slangs  “Ku saya Guys” “No English” “Ina Jin Norms” B.O.C has successfully released NO ENGLISH, SORRY PLEASE THANKS, ALLAH YA TSARE and a compilation project with Concept man CMAN titled DARASIN RAYUWA and THE FOUR HORSEMAN.

KHEENGS

He is regarded as one of the pioneers of Hausa rap with his silky-smooth vocal texture, interesting lyrics, and technique the voice of Arewa is incomplete without the Minna-born artist. His song Jealous featuring M.I Abaga off his debut project KHEENGZ-College Kid Mixtape in 2013 introduces Hausa Hip-hop to the Industry in a big way before the emergence of Morell, and  Classiq that took over the waves followed up by DJ AB and B.O.C Madaki on the forefront.

Born in Michigan, Deezell moved back to Nigeria with his parents as soon as he turns 5. Deezell has worked with a lot of renowned artists including Yung6ix, Koredo Bello, Emmy Nyra, etc… Despite being the most controversial among his peers Deezell doesn’t relent as he continually faces criticism from all angles.

The Extended Play

The Four Horsemen Extended Play contains 4 Solid tracks shared among the Horsemen!

240 – The intro of the song reminds me of one of Classiq’s song that featured Mr. Incredible (figure it out yourself). Introducing Play 240 prepares our mind for what the Four Horsemen have in store for us. DJ Ab his trademark flows with amazing delivery and punchlines followed up by Big Boy flowing Deezell as he brags on fast cars laying the bed for the Minna born Kheengs for some wordplay’ delivery. RATINGS (B)

BUROUBA – “Zed Zadicus Zul Zaranda tana ganina ta zabga surrender” might be a cheeky jibe, but I prefer not to spill the beans on Entendres. The groovy song of the project sees DJ AB, Deezell, and Kheengs redress with cheeky jibe at the oppositions. Zlatan must be proud of this record! RATINGS (B)

REAL SH*T – It’s Hip-hop 100% any moment ‘This is serious is Shambee on the beat” Tag plays on. B.O.C Madaki  dropped a great Hausa-English hook as the drums roll on he raps “This is the real sh*t  (na chen baya  atini ne X2) wanda ba ya kauna wanda ya diya munafiki ne” meaning

"This is the real sh*t the former is just a stool, he who does not love the skillful is a hypocrite" one of the talking point of the project.

 RATINGS (B)

T4HM CYPHER  – The Lyrical height of the project sees the four artists drop bars on bars non-stop on a classical CYPHER instrumentals. The best lyrical performance by Deezell on the project comes on the cypher track. RATINGS (C)

Who takes the lead?

The Four Horsemen will be incomplete without any of the horsemen with exception to change of name of the project as the four artiste all brought their individual skills and unique styles.
