Chukwuemeka Gabriel Obi, better known as Le Mav, is a Nigerian record producer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and DJ—one of the earliest contributors to the alté sound. Recognized for his unique sonic fingerprint, Le Mav has produced for notable artists including Tay Iwar, Odunsi, Cruel Santino, BOJ, Seyi Vibez, Falz, Tiwa Savage, and Masego.
In 2023, Le Mav earned a Grammy nomination for his contribution to the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack (“Anya Mmiri” featuring CKay & PinkPantheress) in the category Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media. In 2024, he produced “Ogo” by Seyi Vibez and Tion Wayne, which peaked at No. 3 on the Top 100 Nigerian Songs chart.
From his debut production credit in 2016 to the present, Le Mav’s portfolio reflects not just his production genius but his profound impact on Nigerian music.
