Henok Achido took his first step into the light in music in 2001. His legendary feature on the two grammy winning song -Mina Hundar- became a controversy on the Swedish hiphop scene, only at the age of 18. After his guest appearance and touring all over Scandinavia, he still did not create music consistently, due to personal reasons and lacking motivation to persuade his own music career but that would took a huge turn on the summer of 2006. .... Henok Achido was born Henok Meharena on the 5th of September 1982, raised in a single parent home in the southern parts of Sweden. The musical influence originated from his family, mainly his mother, uncle & cousins, all huge music fans, which later persuaded him to purchase his first vinyl with the weekly allowance at the age of 8. Although the response for Henok was massive, he still did not feel satisfied with the mind state and lacked maturity and the preparation to be the complete musician he desired. After, Mina Hundar, Henok dropped out of high school and moved to Stockholm to continue recordings but still did not feel that his timing was right. However, that all changed in mid 2006. .... Henok Achido has always been known for having a strong character, plus the combination of unique flow, determination, cockiness & inventive word play describes Henoks Achido the artist best. In early 2006, Henok recorded a song called 'Million Dollar Baby' that was a groundbreaking change and took him back to the light of music.
