Here are 5 fantastic hit songs courtesy 'The Wicked Producer'

The producer's impact on the YBNL label's success story holds so much weight it can't be denied.

The contribution of music producers in making a hit song cannot be over-emphasized, even though the artists tend to be the ones that take credits for the song's popularity half the time.

Akwa-Ibom YBNL in-house producer Young John 'The Wicked producer' ticks off another year as he marks his birthday today February 16, 2017.

The producer's impact on the YBNL label's success story holds so much weight, as he has been instrumental in making many of the hit songs that have come out of the YBNL studios.

Olamide, Lil Kesh and Viktoh, among other artists have him to thank for his ingenious production of many of their street certified hits.

In the spirit of his birthday celebration,  Pulse Music gives you five top picks out of Young John's rich library of produced hits, plus a self-rendered song from him.

                             

'Story for the gods'

Olamide's 'Story for the gods', controversial as its lyrics may be, stands out among other reasons due to the 'killer' production from the 'Wicked' producer.

'Efejoku' feat. Viktoh

Lil Kesh and Young John showed mad chemistry on this collaboration. The street credibility of the song proves Young John was simply on fire with his production.

'Bobo'

The award winning street certified anthem is credited to the genius producer. So good the beat blended hand-in-glove with the dance step carved out by Baddo Olamide for the jam.

'Mama'

Kiss Daniel vibed right on Young John's stellar beat that translated to an award-winning anthem. This shows that 'The wicked producer' is not only about the butt shaking dance songs.

'Konkobility'

The rich Afrobeat instrumentals cooked up by Young John for Olamide's 'Konkobility'  is attention grabbing,  keeping you interested  as your ears remain glued to the rhythm and synchronization of the beat and Olamide's singing.

Bonus - 'Gbagbe' (Produced by Mojarz)

Here, Young John shows himself as  'The Wicked Singer'.  'Gbagbe' is a love song nicely rendered by the YBNL maestro, and it's melodious in every sense of it. He hands off from producing the song, leaving it to a certain Mojarz who does a pretty great job at it.
