Tekno makes Billboard’s 10 Hip Hop and R’n’ B artistes to watch in 2017
No Case Matched!By Sewe Ishola,
Even though, he was disqualified from the Headies, Pana crooner, Tekno has moved onto the international scene, as Billboard has included his name in the list of “10 Hip-Hop and R&B Artistes to Watch In 2017”
Talking about Tekno and his feats in 2016, the magazine said;
Tekno already has a number of hits in Nigeria, and Columbia Records took note, throwing its weight behind this agile, elastic-voiced singer. Tekno’s “Pana,” which has already accumulated more than 13 million views on YouTube and inspired a minor version of a video challenge, is romantic and light on its feet with little more than a nagging guitar line and squirts of bass, everything pegged to a serpentine forward march. There’s clearly a demand in the mainstream for feathery dance cuts like this one: close your eyes and imagine a smart radio programmer cueing this up after Drake‘s “Too Good.”
Others on the list are Kehlani, Aminé, YFN Lucci, Leela James, Kodie Shane, Princess Nokia, Guordan Banks, Khalid, H.E.R.
