Rapper and lyricist Pedi Official 254 has officially marked his entry into the major leagues with his first formal project under Black Market Records, dropping a hard-hitting single titled “Ni Legit” featuring Seta Bam Bam.

That unwavering dedication has paid off heavily. After generating massive viral traction on TikTok with street anthems like “Perepere” and “Goshodo,” and collaborating with elite powerhouses like Joefes, Fidel Rayd, and Exray, Pedi is cementing his position as an elite industry heavyweight. “Ni Legit” serves as a celebration of authentic street identity and unapologetic success. Seta Bam Bam’s signature “Wananiknow Wolan Babilow” cadences flawlessly complement Pedi’s high-octane energy, delivering an irresistible, club-ready dynamic.
