“M, iF I no blow this year, I would quit music.” Like every one battered by life’s struggles, Blessing Akiode came very close to giving up on her dream.

It was mid 2016 and she was just another rapper scouring the streets of Lagos for a career-lifting miracle. A miracle she got later that year, even though she wasn’t really expecting it. Her career trajectory remains proof that ‘time and chance do happen to us all.’

However, what does the magic for Candy Bleakz is her vocal control – her impressive ability to stylize her vocals to glimmer with a certain pop-appeal, yet retain its sanctity as a core rap record. On Fire, she rehashes the magic she made with the viral hit, Tikuku, which is also the EP’s lead single, soaking the record with her narratives of life on ‘the street.

I am not dressing sexy or any of those things. It is harder for me . It is even easier for guys to connect and collaborate, but it is harder for female singers like that. I have to work 10 times harder than others.There is no special way, really. If a producer comes around, he/she plays me a good beat and I draw inspiration from it. I like people around me when I am recording; I like conversations going on. I am more of a freestyle artiste.
