2Face Idibia Essentials

Innocent Ugah Idibia's career began in the '90s with Plantashun Boiz, an alliance with BlackFace Naija that spawned two albums. However, it was as a solo artist that 2face would thrive, crowning a string of decent albums with an international hit, “African Queen”, in 2007 and three years later Best Male and Artist of the Year gongs at the MTV Africa music awards. Cementing just how universal his brand of feelgood Afropop is, his 2014 album The Ascension debuted in the upper reaches of the Billboard world music chart.
