Yugoszn has released his self-titled debut EP.
The young fast-rising artist from Lagos, Nigeria, has soared since releasing his debut single, “Before Before”, in 2023. In April, Yugoszn released the follow-up single “Renegade,” which did well on TikTok, accumulating over one million views. To his surprise, Cameroonian-American BET Awards award-winning singer Libianca shared Yugoszn’s “Jah” cover video with her growing fanbase on her Instagram and TikTok.
Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Yugoszn—real name Geoffrey Ugochukuwu Mgbeoji—is a singer-songwriter and rapper. The gifted and talented eighteen-year-old debuted with his catchy song “Before Before” on Benin City Entertainment. Its follow-up “Renegade” caught fire on TikTok.
Eventually, Yugoszn got on Cameroonian- American star singer Libianca’s radar with a cover of her song “Jah.” She reposted it to her page and spoke highly of his rendition. Months later, he collaborated with actor and rapper Connor Price for his Spin the Globe series, earning his first million streams on Spotify. The promotional video on TikTok has 1.8 million likes, and 13.5 million views. Instagram’s video has 4.5 million views.
