Abass Akande Obesere, also known by his stage name Omo Rapala, was born on January 20, 1965, in Ibadan, the largest city in Western Nigeria. He is a renowned Nigerian artist, singer, and record producer who gained fame for his distinctive style of Fuji music. Obesere carved a niche for himself in the music industry with his unconventional approach and unique slangs, which have captivated fans and propelled him into the limelight. Following in the footsteps of Fuji legends like Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, Obesere has taken his brand of Fuji music to audiences around the world.
Initially signed with Sony Music, Obesere’s career took a turn due to payment disputes, leading him to join other labels. Throughout his musical journey, he maintained a long-standing rivalry with fellow Fuji star K1 De Ultimate. Today, he is signed with Mayors Ville Entertainment, a subsidiary of Maxgolan Entertainment Group, a record company based in Lagos, Nigeria.
On April 8, 2012, Obesere was involved in a serious car accident near Ijebu-Ode while driving his Lexus LX470 on his way to Lagos. The accident occurred around 7:30 p.m., but fortunately, the artist and two other passengers only sustained minor injuries. They were promptly transferred to Orisunbare Hospital in Jakande Isolo, Lagos, where they received treatment.
