Eedris Turayo Abdulkareem Ajenifuja (born December 24, 1974), popularly known as Eedris Abdulkareem, is a Nigerian hip hop artist, songwriter and singer. He was the lead rapper of the defunct Nigerian hip hop boy band The Remedies. Born Eedris Turayo Abdulkareem Ajenifuja to a polygamous family in Kano, Nigeria, his father was from Ilesha, Osun State, and his mother was from Ogun State, all in the South Western part of Nigeria, but he adopted Kano State as his state of origin. He lost his father at the age of 2 and eight of his elder siblings as time went by. Abdulkareem formed and performed with the hip-hop band The Remedies from 1997 until they split up in 2002. He continued as a solo artiste and released his first solo album, P.A.S.S. ("Pains And Stress = Success"), in 2002. One of the hits in the collection titled "Wackawickee MC's" criticized Tony Tetuila, Plantashun Boiz and Double X Posse for their unprofessionalism and troubleshooting antics. Later the same year, he released an album titled Mr. Lecturer. Its title track attacked students in Nigerian colleges and universities receiving higher grades in exchange for money and sex, as well as exposing lecturers who perpetrate these acts. In 2004, Abdulkareem released his third album, Jaga Jaga, a Yoruba term for "shambles", declaiming corruption and suffering in Nigeria. The title track was banned from radio by President Olusegun Obasanjo, but continued to be played in nightclubs and spots all over the country, and became a sort of underground Nigerian national anthem. The album cover was by the renowned artist Lemi Ghariokwu, known for creating many album covers for Fela Kuti.
