How it really began with 
 Shyne :
 Shyne  began his career as a near-novelty -- a preteen delivering Soul RnB. Born and raised in the infamous Oshodi neighbourhood of Lagos state, he was a straight-A student but never felt his true intelligence was expressed through any kind of report card. He found music was the
best way to express himself, and after taking the name 
 Shyne  , he began perfecting his vocal skills. Combining a strong work ethic with aggressive self-promotion, the 19-year-old convinced the Diesel Music label to
take him on, even if it was just for odd jobs around the office. Few weeks later, he found favor in the eye of the CEO of 
 Diesel music, Bolanle Ninalowo  they partnered together with music in-house producer B-Vybz and the duo made Shyne’s first song titled 
 “turn off d light”  which was considered a straight hit by the label and other listeners. 
Ever since then Lo and behold 
 Shyne  was discovered.
Since his sign-on deal with the label, Shyne has recorded over 20 songs and currently promoting 5 of the songs including a collaboration with his label mate, 
 Shawn Jessa  titled “Colonize me”. A club banger, presently being played in all clubs and radio stations. What ya'll didn't know bout this artist is if you love 
 Brymo's  music,  then SHYNE aint no difference.
