Updated: Feb 16, 2022

He was born on December 1993 in Lagos, as the last child of the family. He is originally from Ondo State. Reekado started his music career in 2008 after he left secondary school but later attended the University of Lagos, where he graduated with a degree in History.

His elder brother, Temi, who was an artist manager, produced all of his earlier songs and gave him guidance on how to write, sing and produce music.

In 2014, Reekado Banks got signed into Don Jazzy-owned record label ‘Mavin Records’ alongside Dija and Korede Bello, after his brother submitted his songs in an online talent hunt organized by the record label. Prior to his record deal with Mavin, he went by the stage name ‘Spicy’.

Under Mavin, Reekado released his official debut single ‘Turn it Up’ featuring Tiwa Savage. He teamed up with Don Jazzy, Tiwa Savage, Di’Ja, Dr SID and D’Prince on the song ‘Dorobucci’. With some of the aforementioned, they released songs like Adaobi, Arise and Looku Looku.

He released a Don Jazzy-produced hit single ‘Katapot’ on February 13, 2015. He also released other singles like Easy Jeje, Sugar Baby, Blessings on Me and so on. In 2018, he announced his departure from Mavin Records to start his independent label ‘Banks Music’.
