Incredible Music is the record label Nigerian rapper M.I Abaga (Jude Abaga) founded in Lagos in March 2020, immediately after leaving Chocolate City, the label he had fronted as an artist since the late 2000s and run as CEO from 2015. He announced the move on Instagram the same day he released his debut project under the new imprint, Judah The EP, and has continued releasing under the Incredible Music name since, including the 2022 album The Guy, which carried a joint credit with his former label.

The label is M.I Abaga’s own, run under the entertainment vertical TASCK Creative Company according to its own website, with a small roster that includes M.I himself (billed as “Mr Incredible”) and the artist Loye. No Nigerian corporate registry filing confirming its incorporated structure was located; the label’s existence and activity are established through M.I Abaga’s own statements, phonogram credit lines on his releases, and coverage in Nigerian entertainment press rather than a company register.

Incredible Music operates primarily as the vehicle for M.I Abaga’s solo output and does not appear to run a wider signing or distribution business beyond his own catalogue and its one or two other credited artists.
