“Since the onset of this feature on BN Style, women have been the focus – deservingly so! However, this year, we want to take it to a new level, and explore areas previous untouched. That is why for the first feature of 2011, and for the first time ever, we are putting a man on the spot, and it is not just any man, it is Naeto C! Naeto C born Naetochukwu Chikwe is a rapper and music producer – His quick rise to fame can be attributed to the release of his debut single “You Know My “P” in 2007, which got the industry buzzing about this newcomer with a fresh sound, and that all too commanding “Yes Boss” swag. However, it was his third single “Kini Big Deal” from his debut album, that legitimized him as force to be reckon with as it soon became the club anthem and ruled the charts. From his steady fashion forward appearances on the red carpet, to his remarkable efforts as a trendsetter and his indisputable stylish looks, we at BN Style give Naeto C a 10/10.”

“When we found out that multi award winning rapper Naeto C was in Johannesburg we had to get some candid pictures of him. The rapper, who just picked up an award for “Most Gifted Hip- Hop Video” at the 2010 Channel O Awards, was working on what looked like a new song when we saw him in Sandton. ”

“In 2007, Naeto C released his debut album ‘U Know My P’ which spun the multiple awards winning monster hit, ‘Kini Big Deal’ to make a grand entrance into Nigerian’s mainstream contemporary music. However, he made a daring decision of taking a recess to pursue a Masters degree in Energy. Now with an MSC feather to his cap, he is poised to reclaim top spot in the Nigerian Hip-Hop quarters with his soon-to-be released sophomore album, ‘Super C Season’. The unassuming Storm Records artiste speaks about his quest of getting a higher education while remaining relevant within the Hip-Hop circle.”

“He is gearing up to release one of the most anticipated albums of 2011; rather than lean back and relax after his recent hit, “Ten Over Ten (10/10)“, Naeto C has decided to tease and tantalize his fans a little bit more! What better way to do that than to release a track with international star, Asa. In the track, “Share My Blessings“, Naeto is in a reflective mode and shares details of personal trials and aspirations while Asa croons in her trademark melodic tone in both Yoruba and English. The track was produced by Tee Y Mix.”

“We’re kicking off 2011 in grand style with a brand new single from Naeto C featuring Asa titled “Share My Blessings“. In 2009, Naeto C released “Ako Mi Ti Poju” and then followed it up with “10/10” in 2010. The hiphop maestro has set the ball rolling in 2011 with this mega-song, and we’re told the “Super C Season” album is about to drop (finally!). More info on that in the coming days/weeks. Till then, enjoy this classic piece! ”

“Hip-hop star Naeto C has become the latest big name to throw his weight behind the campaign to save Dundee Football Club. The multi-million selling and multiple-award winning Nigerian rapper - real name Naetochukwu Chikwe - has spent the past year studying for a Masters in Energy Studies at the University of Dundee’s Centre for Energy, Petroleum and Mineral Law and Policy, and has been dubbed the most educated entertainer in Africa - the only Mcee with an MSc.”

“One of the world's fastest rising hip-hop stars will next week ditch the bling in favour of more sober robes when he graduates from the University of Dundee and becomes the only MCee with an MSc. Naetochukwu Chikwe, better known by his stage name of Naeto C, is a multi-million selling and multiple award-winning Nigerian rapper. He has also spent the past year studying for a Masters in Energy Studies, and will receive his degree at the University’s Autumn Graduation ceremony on Wednesday, 17th November.”

“Even for a country teeming with talented high-flyers, Naeto C is a genuine role model. He is an award-winning, internationally-acclaimed rapper with a masters degree in Energy Economics from Dundee University. Even more remarkable is the fact that Naeto completed his degree after having sold a reputed three million plus copies of his 2008 debut album You Know My P, while also recording his highly anticipated follow-up. Signed to west Africa’s entertainment powerhouse Storm Records, Naeto is one of Africa’s best-known rappers having won Channel O and MTV Africa Music Awards. His sophomore album, Super C Season is scheduled for release early next year and as something as a trendsetter, we hope that 2011 sees Naeto get more involved in fashion – we don’t know about y’all but we think a Naeto C menswear line would be a very big deal indeed.”
