Book Jidenna
Jidenna earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration with "Classic Man," the 2015 debut single that reached number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 and made his sharp-suited style instantly recognizable. The rapper, singer and songwriter, born Jidenna Mobisson, signed with Janelle Monáe's Wondaland Arts Society, an imprint of Epic Records, and followed "Classic Man," which also appeared in a remix with Kendrick Lamar, with "Yoga," his duet with Monáe. Both songs led into Wondaland's collective EP The Eephus (2015), and that year he won four Soul Train Music Awards. He has two Grammy nominations in all. His debut album, The Chief (2017), reached the Billboard 200, and 85 to Africa (2019) explored Afro-fusion sounds inspired by his Nigerian heritage and time spent living in Lagos and Johannesburg. He continued with ME YOU & GOD (2023) and THE BASHMEN (2025). A Stanford University graduate, he also appeared on the Netflix series Luke Cage, performing his song "Long Live the Chief." Mixing hip-hop, R&B and West African rhythms, Jidenna brings a polished, theatrical presence to the stage that matches his tailored image.
