Born & Raised (Freestyle) (Mixed. By Ear Drvms)

Nate A-Eshun, born Nathaniel Kwesi Afful Eshun, is an artist whose sound bridges continents, generations, and identities. Born in Takoradi and raised across Kumasi, Tema, and Newcastle upon Tyne, he carries with him a rich legacy — his maternal great-grandfather, a king in Winneba, was born to a Ghanaian mother and a Scottish father. Nate’s music is the natural expression of this cultural duality, where traditions collide and harmonise.

Orphaned at 17, with three younger siblings to guide, he walked a path few would choose: Electrical Engineer by necessity, artist by calling. By day, he powers cities. By night, he powers souls.

Blending the storytelling of Highlife and Hiplife with the pulse of Afrobeats and the electricity of EDM, Nate draws inspiration from legends and global icons alike — Daddy Lumba, Kojo Antwi, Bisa Kdei, Akon, Linkin Park, Sean Paul, The Chainsmokers, and more. His vocals flow across Fante, Twi, Ga, and English — crafting music that feels both ancestral and futuristic.

Two worlds. One artist. Which side wins?
Join him on the journey to find out.
