Praiz Ugbede Adejo, better known as Praiz is a singer, songwriter and music producer who has carved a niche for himself in his almost one decade in the Nigerian music scene.
The singer has remained consistent since he came into limelight in 2008 when he emerged second runner-up in the popular music reality TV show, MTN Project Fame.
With songs like – ‘Rich and Famous’, ‘Mercy’ and ‘Oshey’ featuring Congolese musician, Awilo Longomba and a rendition of Rihanna’s mind-blowing single, ‘Stay’ to his name, the soul/R&B singer has worked with notable artistes like M.I, Sound Sultan, Wizkid, Bez, Sheyi Shay, Iyanya, Chidinma, Kcee, Waje, Cobhams Asuquo, Patoranking and Skales.
After nearly a decade in the industry, on December 14, 2014, the singer who is currently signed to X3M Music, dropped his debut double album, Rich and Famous, with a UK promo tour scheduled for this year.
In 2012, his track – ‘I love you’ was nominated for The Headies Recording of The Year/Best Vocal Performance and the Next Act by NEA. He was also nominated for NEA Best Pop/R&B Artist of the Year Awards in 2014.
Music fans who wonder what has become of Nigerian R&B acts should keep in touch with this artiste as he possesses what a Banky W, Timi Dakolo or Bez would offer.
