Pryse is a UK based Nigerian female rapper who is all set to storm the naija music industry. Born in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, as Princess Esindu, she started rapping at the tender age of ten with her older brother (now popular producer, Big H). She was encouraged down the path of music by her family, who owned and ran a recording studio in Port Harcourt. Pryse spent most of her teenage years listening to Jay Z, writing rhymes and recording songs. At the age of sixteen, she was an active member of the All Out Squad, a hip-hop crew which consisted of Big H, and others. Artistes she has worked with include, Frank D ‘Nero, Zubi, Mack Gee, Double Kay, Rha tha Answer and others. She had to put down the mic for a few years when she moved to Nottingham, UK to attend Nottingham Trent University. Now, however, she is ready to get back to making music again. She feels like the game is ripe for a true female lyricist and she is more than willing (and capable) to fill that void. Her influences include Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and more recently, M.I. Pryse is currently working on a mixtape/album set to drop this summer.
