LOUDAH100, born Ilechukwu Chidiebere in Katsina and raised in Abuja, has emerged as a unique musical force driven by spirit and purpose. His journey started not as a pastime but as a calling, growing up singing in church choirs and learning piano by ear. Music was more than sound to him—it was a deep feeling that shaped his life from childhood through school, where freestyle sessions with friends sparked his passion.
By 2013, LOUDAH100, then known as Wiz Wizper, immersed himself in studio life with DCMG, honing his craft and chasing sound relentlessly. His breakthrough came in 2016 when he met Nigerian music legend Mekoyo, who taught him that music production carries spiritual meaning beyond technical skill. This insight transformed his approach and led to collaborations on major hits like Vector’s “What’s Dat,” Teni’s “Power Rangers,” and Debie Rise’s “Good Love.”
In 2019, a spontaneous session with Odumodublvck created the raw anthem “Ghetto Boy,” while his 2022 cover of Ayra Starr’s “Rush” earned over 250,000 streams independently on Audiomack. Despite these achievements, LOUDAH100’s true mission took shape with the founding of Voice of the Ancestors (VOTA), a movement blending ancestral energy with future rhythms in a new AfroSpirit sound.
Now based in Lagos and working at U&I Studios, he has gained fresh perspectives on music production and storytelling. His upcoming double single release, “Up and Grateful x Chukwu Neme,” set for July 24, 2025, captures gratitude and faith. “Up and Grateful” is a hopeful prayer for new beginnings, while “Chukwu Neme” means “God is Doing It,” reflecting his personal growth amid challenges.
LOUDAH100 offers more than music—he invites listeners on a journey where sound heals, stories endure, and ancestral voices guide the way. His work stands as a testament to music’s power to connect spirit and sound in a rising new era.
