Hailing From Nigeria, a Breeding Ground of International Talents, Up-And-Coming Artist Boydripcy Is Set To Make His Mark With His Debut Single “Cross,” the First Official Release Under Record Label Elviston Music Worldwide.

Nigeria has proved to be the musical gift that keeps on giving. Even as we marvel at the artistic opulence from globally acclaimed superstars such as Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, Asake, Tems, Ayra Starr, and many others, incredibly gifted musicians from the region continue to emerge. One such talent is Boydripcy, a sensational artist who embodies ‘Afrofusion’ with his eclectic style that merges signature Afrobeat with R&B and more contemporary sounds such as pop and rap. His charm is palpable, and from the freestyles he has been posting on his social media platforms, it is apparent that he has a knack for impressive penmanship. His vocals are so icy and silky, like they have been processed; appealing with their rich, refined taste.

Boydripcy has always been fascinated by the art of music and was heavily attracted to this passion from a tender age of 7. Relocating from Imo State to the capital, Lagos, at age 5 further exposed him to a vibrant and culturally diverse world, contributing to his diversified approach to music today.

Boydripcy is now gearing up for the release of his debut single “Cross,” the first official release under the label Elviston Music Worldwide.
Cleverly defying stylistic pigeonholing, “Cross” is a stunning blend of Afrobeat and R&B with subtle pop sensibilities, contributing to its broad-ranging scope. On the mic, Boydripcy breathes life with his silky smooth and ethereal vocals, capturing the track’s thematic essence in an unforgettable way.

Boydripcy sets the track’s tone with a captivating and memorable chorus that encapsulates the song’s theme of carrying your own cross because no one else will do it for you. The catchy hooks, “They no go carry your cross, They no go carry your cross for you, That’s why I’m fighting to the top!” invite listeners into a narrative of harsh reality and resilience.

The saxophone in between the seamless blend of catchy and infectious melodies underscores the emotional weight of the track, adding to its color and depth and ultimately elevating its feel to new heights.

Boydripcy delves deeper into his own experiences growing up in a poverty-stricken homestead, compounded by the death of his father and how he had to drop out of school to chase his dreams.

“Cross” also has an accompanying music video with eye-catching visuals and scenes that perfectly reflect what the song is all about. The video was shot in Boydripcy’s hometown, perfectly encapsulating the struggle and toil to put food on the table while still envisioning a bright future ahead.

More than its mellow, unquestionably ethereal and haunting appeal, “Cross” is a motivational anthem with fulfilling lyrics that tap into common human experiences. This is a sonic tour de force that anyone can resonate with, making it a welcome addition to the musical realm.

As we count days to its official release, music enthusiasts are encouraged to follow Boydripcy on Instagram @boydripcy, check out his freestyles and subscribe to his official YouTube channel in preparation for huge things that will keep on dropping as long as he is drawing breath and is at the summit of his creative expression.

When it comes to musical ingenuity, Nigeria never misses, and Boydripcy is another shining example of the limitless talents that continue emerging from this vibrant nation. He is truly an artist worthy of fanfare.
