He had his elementary and secondary school education in his hometown of Bonny Island. As far back as when he was just 10 years old, Idahams had already started doing music in his local Anglican church where he played a variety of instruments such as the guitar, keyboard, and trumpet. For most of his teens, Idahams was consistently involved in playing instruments for his local church until he left for Lagos State to study Marine Engineering in Seamanship at the School of Oceanography.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Age\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Idahams was born on May 19, 1990, so he will be 33 years on May 19, 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Idahams&#8217; Career in the Nigerian Music Industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Idahams official entry into the Nigerian entertainment scene was in 2016 after a relative of his had played his demo for Tonye Ibiama, founder of Grafton Entertainment (or Grafton Records), an artist management and record label with dual headquarters in both London and Port Harcourt. Tonye Ibiama was pleased with Idaham&#8217;s talent from what he heard in the demo and offered him a record deal which Idahams accepted. The stage name Idahams is coined from the first three letters of his middle name (IDawarifagha), the first two letters of his first name (HArt), the third letter of his surname (IsMael), plus an &#8216;S&#8217;.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Idahams signed a record deal with Grafton Records, it wasn&#8217;t only for his singing capabilities but also as a record producer. Remember, he spent most of his childhood playing instruments in his local church. Immediately after signing on to Grafton Records, Idahams went to work, releasing several singles that had moderate success in the Port Harcourt region, such as <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toast <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anything for You. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it was not until 2018 did he get his big break when fellow Port Harcourt musician signed to Grafton Records, Mr 2kay featured him on a single titled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">God Can Bless Anybody. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Idahams&#8217; verse on the song shot him into the limelight as critics and fans had positive reviews to give.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Later in 2018, inspired by the love story of Davido and then-girlfriend and (now wife), Chioma Avril Rowland, Idahams released a single titled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No One Else. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He would later enlist the help of Teni of Dr. Dolor Entertainment on the remix of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No One Else,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which received massive airplay across the country<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the last quarter of 2019, Idahams, through Grafton Records, dropped his debut extended playlist (EP) titled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amayanabo. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 6-track EP spoke about Idahams&#8217; journey from the creeks of Bonny Island to becoming a musician of national repute. The songs of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amayanabo <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EP include <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gbese, Amayanabo, Off for You, Yarinya, Hustle, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No One Else <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remix.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two months after the release of his debut EP, Idahams released a hit single titled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Billion Dollar<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, after signing a new deal with Universal Group through a joint partnership established by Grafton Records.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On June 12, 2020, Idahams released his second EP through Grafton Records titled <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Man on Fire. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The EP consisted of seven songs, including <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ada, Blessing, Local Girl, Oghene Doh, Man on Fire, Enter My Eye<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shima. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Orbeat, Yussy Beatz, Tu2, and Ayzed contributed to the production of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Man In Fire <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EP. In March 2021, the deluxe edition of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Man on Fire <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EP was released. The deluxe edition contained four tracks. These are: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">God When, Belle, Blessings, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Local Girl.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2022, Idahams dropped his first album titled, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Truth, Love &amp; Confessions (TLC), <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">through Grafton Records and Universal Music Group. He was part of the production team alongside Yussy Beats, Micron, Orbeat, Prince D, Mr. Mayer, and Fardigo, while Ajebo Hustlers, Xenia Manasseh, Zack Zoya, Muthaka, Metha4our, and Tugga Skii were featured as guest artists. The 13-song album narrates Idahams&#8217; most sombre life experiences, from the grief of losing his parents and his bittersweet adventures with romantic love to his eccentric escapades with an Abuja-based &#8216;sugar mummy&#8217;.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The songs that make up the album include <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gratitude, Che Che, Bad Girl, Hate That I Love, Odeshi, Lovina (<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remix), <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kpofire, Go Again, Oyeh, Somebody&#8217;s Daughter, Pressure, Where I&#8217;m From, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rapid Love.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we mentioned earlier, Idahams is also a record producer.
