“High Star” has enough juice to crack the next level for 6ix. Yung6ix is the best Nigerian rapper to ever walk these streets and hit these mics. At least that’s how he sees it in his head. If you follow Yung6ix on social media, it’s a lesson in self-confidence. Open his mind, and you will discover he’s the Sango of flows, the Zeus of punch lines, and the Thor of hit records. It can be a beautiful thing to see, but sometimes (I mean many times), it’s maddening when you compare it with his status in the Nigerian music industry.Everyone knows the rapper from the South is talented. He’s proven himself in that department. No one argues when he makes his claims about personal greatness and the quality of his skill. What ticks people off is that he has never truly come into his own as the pop culture ruler that he thinks he is. No one knows what the problem is. It’s just that it hasn’t happened. His debut album, 2014’s “6 O’ Clock” is still one of Nigeria’s best rap projects since 2010.
