[GIST] WORD ON THE STREETS IS RAPPER 'MODE9' IS GOING COMMERCIAL WITH HIS MUSIC

There’s no doubt about it. Mode 9 is probably the best MC to have come out of this side of the Atlantic. Known for straight-up pure Hip-Hop, he’s managed to convince everyone of his talent and stay true to his Hip Hop roots.
The thing is though, real Hip-Hop or ‘conscious music’ doesn’t always put money in an artiste’s pockets in Nigeria. Yet when an artiste goes commercial in a bid to make money, certain aspects of the music community berate them for ‘selling out’.
Mode 9 has held out long enough. On his next music project, he’s specifically targeting the commercial market. And just incase you were wondering how ‘commercial’ Mode is going to get, Mode 9 has confirmed exclusively to Hip Hop World that ace producer Don Jazzy is going to be the album.
