PRESS RELEASE — London, United Kingdom; 29 November 2022
Nigerian rap star Nicholas Ihua-Maduenyi, popularly known as PsychoYP, dropped 500 fan passports on Web3 music marketplace TokenTraxx. The $1 passport will allow PsychoYP fans to join the emerging star as he leaves his hometown Abuja and takes his new wave trap sound global.
Following the passport launch, PsychoYP will drop eight unreleased tracks on TokenTraxx as a part of his ‘ABJ to Heathrow’ fan-engaging release.
TokenTraxx has a mission to be at the centre of a new independent music creator economy, providing a Web3 platform that redefines and enhances the value of music by bringing artists and fans closer together.
The young rapper’s original drop enables passport holders to collect individual ‘ABJ to Heathrow’ tracks as VISA stamps and gain access to exclusive fan perks.
Web3 is attracting artists seeking more creative freedom and financial independence from traditional music publishing models. Underpinned by blockchain, the booming sector is ushering in new and innovative formats for releasing music, opening up unlimited opportunities for creatives looking to connect with their audience in a meaningful way.
The innovative collection designed by visual artist Bidemitata allows PsychoYP fans to pick between 250 red and 250 purple passports minted on the Polygon network.
The following two drops will feature four unreleased tracks each. Meant to be collected as VISAs that go along with the passport, individual ‘ABJ to Heathrow’ tracks priced at $10 and limited to 50 copies will enable fans to unlock various levels of utility.
Divided into three tiers for fans to access by collecting one, four, or eight tracks, these exclusive perks range from free merchandise and discounts to shows, to VIP event access and meet and greet with PsychoYP.
Born and raised in Abuja, the 23-year-old Nigerian artist has a diverse sound that cuts across Trap, Rap, UK Grime, UK Drill, R&B, and Hip-Hop. His multi-faceted music catalogue has achieved over 20 million streams across all digital platforms independently.
