Newcomer rapper Yesi re-energizes Hip-Hop with a raw, multi-lingual flavor. Born and raised in the 
Ibadan, Yesi’s education took him to Orlando, Florida, and eventually New York City where he currently resides. Yesi seamlessly blends 3 languages- English, Yoruba and Pidgin (Broken English) - delivering impressive lyrics over heart thumping Hip-Hop beats. Think Fela (Afro beat King) meets Kanye.
