Bio

Suté Iwar is a visionary force in the global music industry, weaving a tapestry of sound that is otherworldly and deeply rooted in his Nigerian identity. Hailing from Lagos, Nigeria, he is a pioneering artist in the country's SoundCloud and Alté music movement.

His debut album, 2023's ULTRALIGHT, was selected as one of the best soul albums of 2023 by BandCamp, as well as being one of the fresh picks of the year by Billboard Magazine.

His genre-fluid Afro-fusion sound, which blends elements of hip-hop, R&B, soul, jazz, and Afro-pop, reflects his diverse influences and experiences growing up in Nigeria.

The Guardian has described him as 'afro-fusion's golden voice', and his innovative sounds have seen him creating waves beyond Nigeria, receiving notable cosigns from Notion, The Native, Worldwide FM, and BBC 1xtra amongst others.

In addition to his work as a rapper and singer, Suté is also a talented record producer. He has contributed his skills to a number of projects, both as a solo artist and in collaboration with other musicians.
