During a childhood which echoed with sounds of blues, instrumental jazz and African music, the Nigerian musician
Bloody Civilian, real name Emoseh Khamofu, began to find her sound for herself, writing out her own lyrics on small pieces of paper and performing these first to her parents, and then at church, talent shows and school performances. When she was 12, the indomitable artist began to take her first steps into the production element of the space, using the platform Audacity to record her compositions, before developing these skills to become the producer she is today. These early and continuing lessons have shaped her successes to date, from the release of her debut single
How To Kill A Man to her soundtracking of Wake Up for Marvel’s
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Ultimately, each lyric, composition and track is written and produced by the artist with the overarching intention of paying homage to her homeland.
