Offica - Plotting (Freestyle Video)
One of Ireland’s most loved young rappers, Offica, returns with a bang, with his new freestyle ‘Plotting’, out now.
Born in Lagos Nigeria and raised in Drogheda, Ireland, Offica is known for pulling on both these cultural influences in his lyrical content and delivery, in a very unique way. As a solo artist, he has become the top streaming Rap artist in Ireland.
Set to an early noughties inspired beat, in ‘Plotting’ Offica delivers straight up bars with some trademark witty and cutting word-play, as he schemes and plots his next moves with a sniper-like mentality. This comes ahead of some seriously big announcements and releases to come next year. A stripped back performance music video also dropped alongside the freestyle.
Offica says “For me plotting is about closing the year with a bang and going into the new year with a bang”.
Having risen to the top of the UK music scene all whilst putting Ireland on the map, Offica shot heavily into the public eye with the A92 Plugged In Freestyle; sitting on 115 million streams on Spotify and almost 56 million views on YouTube– the freestyle brought great attention to not only Offica but the rest of the Irish scene as well.
Offica has redefined what it means to be an Irish rapper, breaking records with a run of classic singles and game-changing freestyles. He has carved a niche for himself by seamlessly incorporating Irish and Yoruba slang into his lyrics, providing a unique window into his culture and identity.
Offica’s artistry goes beyond boundaries and is a testament to his unwavering commitment to authenticity. After a two year period which saw Offica as a masked up anonymous rapper; in 2020 the Irish prodigy revealed his face and identity and since then he’s never looked back.
Since then he has continued to make waves delivering captivating freestyles for Fumez The Engineer, Kenny Allstar and Charlie Sloth, whilst dropping tracks with YouTube phenomenon KSI, Fizzler, Skengdo AM and international stars like D’banj, Odumodublvck and Physco YP.
