For over a decade, Chopstix has been behind some of the most iconic records in Nigerian music. Now, with a Grammy Award to his name, he has officially entered the ranks of the greatest producers in African music history.
At the 67th Grammy Awards, Chopstix’s production on Chris Brown’s 11:11 (Deluxe) earned him the award for Best Global R&B Album, an achievement that not only highlights his versatility but also cements Nigeria’s position as a global music powerhouse.
The Blueprint of a Hitmaker
Chopstix’s sound is built on a foundation of bold experimentation and fearless creativity. His ability to merge Afrobeats rhythms with Western influences has led to anthems dominating African and international charts. Tracks like “Kilometer” and “Last Last” by Burna Boy are testaments to his understanding of what makes a hit.
Yet, beyond the numbers, Chopstix represents something deeper: a shift in how Nigerian producers are perceived worldwide. No longer are they just contributors to a song—they are now leaders in defining the global soundscape.
A New Era for Nigerian Producers
The conversation has shifted. Producers like Chopstix are now being recognized for the magic they create behind the boards. His Grammy win is a beacon for every young Nigerian producer, proving that success in the global music industry is not just possible—it is inevitable.
And as Chopstix continues to expand his reach into film, mentorship, and global collaborations, one thing is clear: this is just the beginning.
Long live the king of Nigerian production.
