Biography

Bigheadphones aka BHP is one of Africa's pioneer and leading Hip-Hop collectives founded in 2012 by a group of artists (namely; Abyssinia @d33bhp, Mr. HD, President Zik and Ross) which has now gone on to blossom fully into a record company headed by longtime friend and partner Louis Adeh. Credited with having a profound impact on the underground circuit in Nigeria, Bigheadphones boasts an expansive catalogue of music consisting of 10 mixtapes/projects and over 40 singles released over the course of 10 years. Their style of music ranges from subtle throwbacks to the golden age of HipHop, to current subgenres like trap music and drill, all the way to R&B/Soul leanings as well as afro-fusion soundscapes. Their debut project "Tree House Music Vol. 1" is credited with inspiring a whole generation of artists on the style of music made, as well as introducing a new marketing and distribution approach from an independent perspective. Their catalogue has an impressive figure of over a million streams and downloads across all platforms. In 2016, Bigheadphones began their own music festival called 'Urban Lifestyle Fest' more fondly known as ULF catering mainly to a hip-hop crowd but still giving room to other prevailing genres around. The fest has held every year since it's inception.
