D-NO (Dinisu Onyenokwe) is a Nigerian Hip-Hop artist currently studying
Public Policy in Toronto, Canada. He was a pioneer member of the
Bonafide Crew that gathered a large audience in their secondary school
days between 2004-2007, before splitting up.
D-NO continued to write and perform his own songs, developing his
own distinct style of music with an emphasis on rap and conscious
lyrics. His mother, Adesuwa Onyenokwe is a renowned journalist,
magazine publisher and TV presenter in Nigeria. She has been a big
influence on his work particularly addressing issues of common concern
in ways others couldn't through his music.
Together with
Bonafide and Laolu Ogun, D-NO is set to make a return. He released a
street single, "I'm Back" in December 2012 and this is his first
official single, "Burkina Faso" featuring Bonafide Crew member, Deolu
Solar and produced by Bamzy.
Burkina Faso incites a movement
for social change in Africa. Partly due to D-NO's heritage and his
university course, he felt a desire to use his music not only to
entertain people but to spread the right messages to raise awareness of
the continued degradation that grips the continent. He plans to
release a compilation called, Conflicted, due for release in the early part of 2013. Follow him @dno_07 or @team_bonafide.
