• For the benefit of your fans out there, tell us a little bit about yourself. Like full names, where you from, when you started singing and your notable achievements so far.

My full names are Obinna Marx Okereke, I started singing since ten years old. Also I’ve been functioning in church choirs since then. I started music professionally in 2011. I’ve grown overtime singing background vocals and performing as an opening act for the notable award winning international Gospel Artiste & Worship Leader Sinach’ at her series of worship concerts and other programs all held in Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroun, Uganda, South Africa, Amsterdam (The Netherlands) and other parts of the world.

In pursuing my career in music I grabbed 2nd Runner - Up at the Next Gospel Star Reality TV 2011 Edition Lagos Nigeria and in the later part of the year 2012 I also released an Extended Play Edition titled "D OFFICIAL SINGLES" containing multiple songs off of my newly released debut album 'INSPIRIT'.

In 2013 I was nominated as the Next Big Gospel Act at the Cool FM Praise Jam which took place at Eko Hotel & Suites Victoria Island Lagos Nigeria. After gaining the privilege of nomination as the Next Big Gospel Act position for emerging artistes, I got nominated again to co-host 2014’s Cool FM Praise Jam edition alongside its top OAPs. I’m also a Media Personality and adding to my credit I’ve hosted a gospel entertainment TV show on one of Nigeria’s terrestrial station.
