Those who keep their ears close to the ground must
have already heard about this dude.
And those who are up and about should have
encountered him already - young, stylish and driven, Eric Idiahi is the man
behind Spinlet - the digital music distribution company that's the new bride of
musicians.
With Spinlet already working with 2face Idibia,
Banky W, Wizkid, Eldee, MI, Ice Prince, and many more, Eric has his eyes set on
solving the distribution problem in Nigeria, while helping curb piracy and
helping artistes and their labels make more money.
He's started well already - breaking download and
sales records with the EME all-stars
album, sponsoring Ice Prince's collaboration with Gyptian, sponsoring 2face,
Ice Prince, Naeto C and others to the globally-famous SXSW in Austin, Texas and
supporting dozens of local Nigerian artistes with recording, promo and other
facilities.
Eric, who is very much married, is a music fan who
is building a movement out of his love for the art. What most people don't know
is that he's also the co-founder of Verod Capital, one of Nigeria's leading
investment firms, based in Lagos, Nigeria
