When it comes to Nigerian hip-hop, M.I Abaga doesn’t hesitate to give credit where it’s due.
In a recent episode of the Hip-hop To Afrobeats podcast, the rap heavyweight named Mode 9 as the country’s most respected rapper, praising the veteran emcee for his influence on the entire scene.
“Mode 9 is always gonna be the most respected Nigerian rapper of all time because he is a rapper that when you found him, you didn’t need to visit anybody else to improve your craft,” M.I said.
For him, Mode 9 isn’t just about the hits or the discography. It’s his dedication to the culture, his consistency, and the way he’s stayed true to hip-hop over the years that make him a benchmark for other artists.
M.I pointed out that Mode 9’s music continues to guide up-and-coming rappers who want to refine their craft.
What really sets Mode 9 apart, according to M.I, is his originality and lyrical depth. His ability to weave complex, authentic lines has earned him lasting respect from fans and peers alike.
