MC Galaxy

MC Galaxy (real name, Innocent Udeme Udofot) is a Nigerian musician. Initially a comedian, MC Galaxy came into music after a dancing cameo in the video for singer Iyanya’s ‘Kukere’ (2013).

Born in 1979 in the South-south region of Nigeria, MC Galaxy came to Lagos after dropping out of the University of Uyo in Akwa Ibom state where he had been admitted to study computer science. He went through several jobs – dancing, event hosting and comedy ¬– to survive before recording the song ‘Sekem’ (2014) which marked his official entry into the Nigerian pop space. Appropriately, his debut album is named ‘Breakthrough’ (2015), referring to his years of struggle. He met Iyanya at popstar D’Banj’s club Koko Lounge in Lagos, danced with the singer and thereafter was featured in the video for the song.

In March 2015, he launched a record label MCG Records, for his own initials.
