As the Nigerian music industry continues to soar and establish a foothold in the international music space the narrative has begun to change. Bolatito Obisanya popularly known as BolaBMH [the Lagos-based Music Producer, Engineer, Composer & Songwriter] is fast cementing his place as one of the leading forerunners of this global phenomenon.

His alluring sound and melodies can be heard on emo-afrobeat artist Ckay’s lead single Emiliana, this has no doubt contributed to the song’s widespread success. Recently certified Diamond in France by the French body SNEP, Emiliana is one of only four Afrobeats records that can boast of this impressive feat. In addition to being eligible for gold and platinum certifications in a host of other European countries [Sweden, Portugal, and Netherlands to mention a few], Emiliana is also the fastest solo Afrobeats record to hit this milestone.

He was recently nominated at Africa’s most prestigious award show; Afrima for producer of the year, which is as a result of his distinct contribution on Emiliana and the year in review.

At the young age of 21, the fast-rising star BMH already has a buzzing catalogue to his name and can be associated with big names in the music industry such as Moroccan rapper El grande Toto, Ayra Starr, Blaqbonez, PyschoYP, Whoisakin and couple of other talented acts.

BMH’s distinct drums and melodies lead a new frontier with Afrobeats as he is the propelling engine behind the breakout EP of Chocolate City/Nu tribe’s latest signee Tar1q and Empawa’s Afro-Pop King WhoisAkin.

His moniker BMH as we’ve come to understand is a short form for “Burst my Head” which also serves as his producer tag is sure to soon become a household name and on the lips of every music enthusiast worldwide.

BolaBMH is definitely here to stay for a long time, and we are proud to witness his journey as well as looking forward to seeing what the multi-talented producer has in store for us.
