FECKO

About Me

Fecko (born Ifeanyi Chukwuebuka Ibegbunam on June 17, 1989 in Onitsha, Anambra State) is a young and witty Nigerian emcee-cum-rapper. Raised in the suburbs of Lagos state, Fecko has, throughout various times during his career, also gone by the stagenames of Raplogic, Feck, and Tha Lyrical Soulja. FECKO has also developed various backronyms for his name, including Formidable Emcees Can Knock-out Obstacles. He started doing rap music professionally in 2005 when he recorded his first Demo tape at a digital studio in Surulere (Lagos) after he graduated from high-school. Before then, he recorded a couple of freestyles and rap songs with the aid of a tape recorder, while he used hip-hop beats of various musicians as his background sound theme, which often played from the loud speakers of his father's deck and he apparently rendered most of his dad's high-life cassettes useless as a result of his mini-recording studio-experiment. Well after producing his own demo tapes locally, he would distribute them free of charge to most of his friends and school mates so they can review his work.Later on in 2006, Fecko was commited in joining forces with an Enugu-based record label and eventually worked on a 9-tracker album. However the album wasn't released due to a snag which was caused by the label, but that didn’t stop him from forging ahead in his hip-hop career. Plus, he made sure that some of his hit tracks off the unreleased album got airplay on both local and international radio stations, while some tracks also got featured on mixtapes, hosted by several DJs who were based in Nigeria, Ohio Sate (USA) and London (England).Fecko participated in several hip-hop auditions, some of which include the Zain/Nigezie Trusearch (Enugu), Starcomms/Collosal Live Revolution Concert (Lagos) and the Channel O SPRITE EMCEE AFRICA Freestyle Battle Competition which also took place in Lagos. During the first quarter of 2009, he also got featured on the AfricanHipHop.com mixtape alongside other rappers from Zambia, Zimbabwe etc. Although he hopes to pitch his tents with PalmBeach Records sooner or later, but in the meantime, he's currently working freelance on an album and a hip-hop mixtape which will include guest artistes and production works from Nigeria, Cameroon, South Africa, Europe and USA.Fecko is also working real hard to make sure he drops at least two musical videos of good quality on or before the second quarter of 2009, so as to help promote his forthcoming mixtape and album. Currently he has two singles on radio entitled (Nollywood ft Terry da rapman and Phunky Somethin). He's also a member of the African Hip-Hop Movement and a presenter/news correspondent with PowerHouseAfrica.com which is an all-African music website and have, throughout various times during his career as a journalist, conducted several video-taped interviews with some illustrious Nigerian acts like Banky W, Modenine, Overdose, Illbliss and Terry tha rapman just to mention a few. And aside from being a student, lyricist, rapper and a presenter, Fecko is also a graphic/web designer, writer and an online publicist. While some of his hobbies include: surfing the internet, meeting new people, playing basketball, researching, watching musical videos and listening to great songs with thought-provoking lyrics..
