HIT or SHIT: Authentiq "Many Girls"

Many Girls - Authentiq

Authentiq, born in London in the late 80’s, is a talented UK rapper. Having moved to Nigeria with his family during his early childhood, he was an active child at school, participating in drama and sports events and began developing his passion for music.

Authentiq was a quiet child who was very close to both his parents, and through his family influences was determined to focus and succeed in both his academic and musical love.

In 2002, his father passed away, leaving him shattered and brokenhearted. He spent time traveling to the US and UK for a change of environment to ease his pain, but to no avail. Then he finally decided to express himself through his love for music and wrote a song for his dad.

In 2005, he was signed as an artist to Impact Records, a Nigerian based record label, where he recorded his first single. He promoted this single throughout Nigeria, performing at universities and music festivals across the country, to rapturous audiences. He later left for the US to develop his rap style and recently returned to London.

Authentiq has recently signed to Titans Entertainment, a UK and Spain based Entertainment Company, and is now looking to create an impact on the UK rap scene. His first single, What I Want, is an up-tempo positive lyrical track, with a great feel-good factor vibe! The track focuses on his passion for his new girlfriend, wooing her in a nightclub. The single, produced by the Hatter Brothers is due to be release in September 2008 and is sure to be a great club track! He's single was released in 2009 entitled many girls. A track Authentiq colorfully uses to appreciate all the women he has had the pleasure of encountering.
