Folarin ‘Falz’ FalanaRAPPER/ COMIC / LAWYER / ACTOR / THE BAHDGUY

Who says you could never be successful being a seasoned professional and a literally incurable humor merchant all at once? People holding such school of thought have obviously never met a remarkable character like FolarinFalana.
One would never imagine that an Attorney at Law could ever be so engrossed in humor, talk more make a living off it. But ‘Falz’ does it so effortlessly well; you’d actually wonder if it does require any sort of effort at all. Popularly referred to as ‘Falz The Bahdguy’, he is an interesting persona that embodies what his peers represent fully these days: a multidimensional existence.

Rémy Martin recognizes this generation of people that understand that real fulfilment comes from realizing all of their talents. We salute them. Tagged the Slash Generation, these individuals live a life between slashes – work / play / hobby / desires – and are not defined by one thing that they do, but all that they do. They meet new people, go to new places, try new things and live many lives.
After graduating with LLB Honors and getting called to the Bar, Falz has gone on to exploit his multiple personas to the fullest. A record label executive, his unique and hilarious style has carved a niche for him as one of Nigeria’s most entertaining Rap artistes presently. Famed for his rib-cracking skits on social media, Falz also thrives as a Compere and a Comedian. And yes, there’s more; he also recently debuted as an actor starring in a Sitcom series titled ‘Jenifa’s Diaries’. What more could one man be, right?

Well, for Falz it’s all just about one thing actually – living his one life to the fullest and achieving all his potentials. After all, he is what he is: a Rémy Martin man, and a complete ‘Bahdguy’.
