Motivate is a single created by Nigerian American artist King Uche featuring fellow Miami, FL rapper Phresh305. King Uche created this single after a testing year filled with trials and tribulations. The central message is that; wherever you are in your life, wherever your hurt and pain comes from; whether it’s from fighting poverty, fighting pandemics, or fighting social injustices- it can not define you. As long as you stay strong and MOTIVATED to win You Can Never Lose!
King Uche is a Nigerian musician who currently splits his time between Miami, Florida, and Los Angeles, California. This allows him to incorporate the originality and uniqueness of West African hip hop and afrobeat sounds into his music, as well as the positive flavour of life in California. Today, he releases his new EP, “UCHE MUSA,” which is based on true events such as Mansa Musa’s rule, the Nigerian civil war, and King Uche’s quest to be born in the ghettos of Nigeria.
All of this inspired him to write music, which he hopes will serve as a spiritual stimulus for those who lack motivation and inspiration: a positive and uplifting message delivered through Hip Hop and Afrobeats. Despite his failings and past, King Uche’s determination has not dimmed, and everybody who listens to him finds comfort and camaraderie!
Today we had a chance to interview King Uche about his journey into the music industry and his freshly released single, “Motivate.”
