An interview with Ajofé, a Nigerian artist making alternative music in America and his perspective on the Alté music movement.
The industry has prepared people’s minds to think of your success in terms of numbers. This is a clash with my style and belief as an Alté artiste. Inspired by the likes of 2Shortz and BigLo in the early 2000s, Ajofé forged a distinct and appealing approach to delivering his alternative sound. He progressed from his initial persona as ' Ajofé Street Mic' to emerge as a remarkable voice in the Alté music movement.
The most captivating aspect of Ajofé’s music lies in its unique fusion of street language, storytelling, raw emotion, and unconventional Afro-Groove beats. In this interview, we explore Ajofé's experiences as a Nigerian artist making music in America, his definition of Alté music, and his opinion about Tems and Burnaboy
