Real name Ifeanyichukwu Benard  Ibeabuchi, Redkad is fast becoming Nigeria's deepest lyricist. He is a super lyricist and has a very dope delivery too.Born and brought up on the streets of Okota,Lagos. Redkad grew up listening to concious emcess like Nas, jayz, 2pac, krs1 ,common ,guru , prodigy, dead prez, modenine, proverb e.t.c.. An indigine of Abia state he's started writing songs at around the age of fifteen just at the point when he was about to leave secondary schoo l (mushin boys high school okota isolo lagos state 2001).. After secondary school it took a while for ReDkAd to gain admission into any university so out of frustration and boredom he took to writing lyrics as a way to kill the boredom and that some how became a hobby.Finally he got admitted to the University of Port harcourt in 2005 to study Electrical/electronics Engineering and it was very difficult to mix school and music so he kept music on the low a little and would only write occasionally or recite a few barz for his friends.On the 31st of december 2010 immediately after his final exams in the University of Port Harcourt he released his mixtape HiPhOp DeAd oR aLiVe MiXtApE to announce his arrival in the Nigerian music industry.The mixtape HiPhOp DeAd oR aLiVe which was released on internet blogs and websites like www.nigerianhiphop.net,  www.wotshotingidi.com, www.360nobs.com, www.repnaijaartiste.com, www.hiphopsouth.com generated the much required buzz as songs like One deal,you used to love me,Born me for Lagos,my life,i'm ill to mention a few got mad air play and massive downloads form rap fans in and around the country.Though he is yet to be signed ReDkAd uses the internet as his major tool to promote his music as almost every Nigeria blog has either a single of his or two including jaguda.com and notjustok where he was listed as top five in the beatbysarz competition hosted by sarz and he finished second in the end.

He has worked with producers like Latrax of beat boulevard based in the uk,Cdrill of blackworld based in the us,Mani diz jam based in Port harcourt,A1 sugarboy and sarz based in Lagos and has worked with artiste like jahborne and mostly underground cats like in Ph..ReDkAd currently spear heads a movement called Full-ish meant to bring creative hiphop minds and encourage them to do for self rather than wait for companies to come pick them up..He is currently working on his first album titled february 16th which happens to also be his date of birth.He is currently signed on to any label.For further details please call  2348134482608.Here are a few links where you can find his works
