Vector’s journey into hip hop dates back to junior high in the year 1994 as he’s vibrantly involved in social activities entertaining his peers from the stage as a young rapper.In 1999 he formed a group “Badder Boiz”. So determined they were about hip hop that they started writing their own songs and along the line, in the same year, they started performing at showcases combining their various skills, aimed at selling the underground sound to the surface.
They recorded their first demo series in 1999. The three did not leave any stone unturned as far as making their presence felt at talent showcases. Vector was going the way of an emcee as his freestyle skills became obvious to the other members of the group. As a group of three, they were together till 2004 when Krystal left the group due to irreconcilable differences with Blaze leaving also while Vector creatively remained glued to his dream. Vector’s versatility runs through the fast and equally slow tempo, a rapper cum lyricist, an excellent songwriter, and producer. Vector is an undisputed emcee endowed with freestyle skills and flair that he awesomely displays on several freestyle battles e.g. Channel O Lagos Party at the Vaults, Unilag Rap King Etc.
The act Vector is synonymous with creating raves and hitting the mark when it’s all about making tunes. Vector is one act that craves for songs transforming into lifestyle and beats that will transcend our Hip Hop boarders. Not stopping there he plans to affect lives positively with his chosen career further proving a point globally with numerous Crossover-Hybrid synergies with Naija Hip Hop songs to his credit, such as his collaboration with Maye Hunta on the track titled "Paparazzi(Superstars)", which eventually became the theme song for Endemol/MNet's BigBrother Africa Allstars, and still counting.
