A new wave of young talent is quietly shaping the sound of Afrobeats, and their names are the Giddy Girls. The teenage vocal group, made up of Ifeoluwa Ayoola, Irene Aziba, Michelle Imafidon, Isabella Osayi, and Deborah Aleshinloye, is becoming one of the most sought-after background vocal collectives in the Nigerian music scene. Based in Lekki, Lagos, these young voices have been featured on some of Afrobeats’ biggest songs, including Burna Boy’s “Higher” and “Love,” and TML Vibez’s “Amiri.”
The Giddy Girls are signed under Dapper Music & Entertainment, led by music executive Damilola “Dapper” Akinwunmi. With the guidance of vocal coach Omoba Godwin Eshiomomoh and producer Chisom “Jaysynths” Onyeke, the girls have developed a sound that blends gospel harmonies, pop rhythm, and Lagos street energy. Their vocal contributions have given depth and emotion to chart-topping records, adding a youthful warmth that resonates with listeners across generations.
What makes their story even more remarkable is how they’ve built such strong professional reputations while still in their teens. Their discipline, studio presence, and creative flexibility have turned them into a secret weapon for top Afrobeats producers and artists. As background vocalists, they’ve contributed to hits that have streamed millions of times globally—proof that behind-the-scenes talent is just as vital to the growth of Nigeria’s booming music industry.
Industry analysts note that the rise of groups like Giddy Girls shows how the Afrobeats business is expanding beyond solo stars to include an ecosystem of supporting creatives who drive the sound forward. With plans to release their own music soon, the Giddy Girls represent the next generation of African artistry, where skill, teamwork, and youth energy are setting new standards for excellence.
