Raised in the vibrant neighbourhood of Ikpoba Hill, Clido’s upbringing was deeply rooted in his Christian faith and enriched by his family’s religious background.
Educationally, Clido’s journey took him through various institutions, including Our Lady of Mercy, Brother Pius, and Our Lady of Apostles for primary schooling. St. Paul Minor Seminary, Immaculate Conception College (ICC), Holy Child, and Holy Ghost Academy, all in Anambra State for secondary education, then furthered his studies at Madonna University.
His diverse educational experiences contributed significantly to his musical journey, allowing him to connect with people and expand his fan base. Particularly in ICC during his JSS2, Clido’s interest in music was sparked by his senior brother’s rap prowess and his admiration for Jesse Jagz’s debut album, ‘Jag of all Tradez.’

Clido’s musical catalogues span multiple genres, with a particular affinity for hip-hop and highlife. His distinctive sound, characterized by authenticity and originality, has garnered attention and praise within the Nigerian music scene.

Despite not receiving physical awards, the superstar considers the love and support from his fans as his dear achievement. His suspension from university at his 400 level due to his musical pursuits also allowed him a valuable period for self-reflection and artistic growth.
Driven by spiritual inspiration and occasional indulgence in alcohol, he channels his emotions and experiences into his music, creating songs with diverse messages that resonate with his audience.
Beyond music, Clido enjoys cooking, watching movies, and pursuing financial stability, guided by his father’s advice: “There is no romance without finance.”
Looking forward, he engineers his preparation to release new music, including his upcoming single “SLOPPY SLOPPY” and collaborations with EEZZ, Kidda x, and Dy/Dx.
Although facing challenges such as financial constraints and the need for the right connections, he remains determined to carve out his path in the music industry and leave a lasting impact on listeners worldwide.
