Henok Achido took his first step into the light in music in 2001. His
legendary feature on the two grammy winning song -Mina Hundar- became a
controversy on the Swedish hiphop scene, only at the age of 18. After
his guest appearance and touring all over Scandinavia, he still did not
create music consistently, due to personal reasons and lacking
motivation to persuade his own music career but that would took a huge
turn on the summer of 2006.
Henok Achido was born Henok Meharena on the 5th of September 1982,
raised in a single parent home in the southern parts of Sweden. The
musical influence originated from his family, mainly his mother, uncle &
cousins, all huge music fans, which later persuaded him to purchase his
first vinyl with the weekly allowance at the age of 8. Although the
response for Henok was massive, he still did not feel satisfied with the
mind state and lacked maturity and the preparation to be the complete
musician he desired. After, Mina Hundar, Henok dropped out of high
school and moved to Stockholm to continue recordings but still did not
feel that his timing was right. However, that all changed in mid 2006.
Henok Achido has always been known for having a strong character, plus
the combination of unique flow, determination, cockiness & inventive
word play describes Henoks Achido the artist best. In early 2006, Henok
recorded a song called 'Million Dollar Baby' that was a groundbreaking
change and took him back to the light of music. The song received
massive response and was featured in TV (MTV), Radio (P3), Skatefilms
(La Famillionaire, Aggressive sport commercial for Stadium), and
Compilation albums (Scandinavian Hiphop invasion (Fr), Nu Jerzey Devil &
BWS presents Hell Raiser vol.2 (US). The musicvideo for Million Dollar
Baby was directed by Tecle Street in the summer in 2006 and shortly
after Henok was signed to label DLX entertainment by co-founder Astma.
After being signed to DLX, Henok released an 8 track free download EP
called -That Fucking Guy The EP- in May 2007 that received more than
35.000 downloads worldwide. Furthermore, In October 07, He was asked to
perform as supporting act for legendary rapper Rakims' European Tour but
unfortunately his tour was cancelled at last minute, however, Henok has
already a few artist under his belt as a supporting act such as Saigon
(US), DJ Drama (US), Willie Da Kid (US), Onyx (US) and Gangstarr (US).
At this moment, Henok is recording his highly anticipated debut album
called Almaz Charming Child and did earlier this year also release 2
free downloads called Henok vs The Prodigy.1 and 2, where he raps on the
legendary techno songs No Good & Magic people. The controversial songs
did receive more than 10,000 downloads and controversial discussion
regarding his flows' potential and placed his capacity beyond anything
else Sweden has ever seen before. The free download EP and songs did
also result in Henok starting to receive more attention overseas and was
just recently posted as new artist spotlight on two of the biggest U.S
hip hop blogs ([url]www.realtalkny.net[/url]) and ([url]www.youheardthatnew.com[/url]). 2008
