He is best known for his single “Miss You,” which reached the top of the iTunes charts in the United States, the Netherlands, Ghana, Nigeria, and France.
1UCID was born in Accra, Ghana, but relocated to the United States of America at the age of nine and earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Akron, Ohio. Bedihene made his production debut in 2021 with the documentary inspired by Ghanaian theologian Mensa Otabil’s sermon, “A Generational Thinker.” The next year, he made his debut as a musician with the single “Miss You” and followed up with “It’s Giving.” The singer made a name for himself with his distinct Afrobeats and hip-hop fusion and is on a mission to create a new sound he calls “Afroblues.”
His singles got him featured on Pulse Nigeria’s Future Sounds playlist and cited by PM News as one of the artists to look out for. In February 2023, Audiomack named him one of the top trending artists, alongside Asake and Kizz Daniel, as he was one of the most streamed artists during the first week of the month.
