Born to a Ghanian mother and a Sierra Leonean father, Gibril was raised to embrace his multi-country heritage. As if to fore-shadow the rest of his life's story, Gibril da African made a very dramatic entry into this world. At birth he was diagnosed with neonatal jaundice and requird a total exchange transfusion to survive. Despite this rocky start, Gibril soon began to flourish and started rhyming in Lagos, Nigeria where he spent the first eight years of his life. .
With pure electric energy, charisma, knowledge, and skills Gibril brings strong vibes as he spreads his message of African awareness and the need for African solidarity. By weaving the story of his life's journey and experiences into hypnotic lyrics on powerful beats Gibril is able to connect with and "edutain" his audience simultaneously." Foreign Exchange" his debute album is set for a Fall release. Music is one of the pieces of my puzzle he says.... Not only is it my passion but also a very useful tool in my ultimate goal to play a part in the movement to unite the African continent.I know the day will come when we as Africans all over the globe shall stand as one people, join hands and fly one flag, and till then i will continue to use my talent to push us all towards that day.
