Even though she had to wait for close to one hour or more, not once did she pass a complaint or
nag when the ­interview was about to start. ­Beauti fully adorned with a flawless carriage, she ­entered
the interview room and ­everybody sat up a ­little taller to catch a glimpse of this ­seemingly ­confident
melanin skinned beauty. ­Radiating with life and vigor as the interview started, not giving any sign of
discomfort, ruby was the ideal dream of any interviewer.
Chocolate City artiste and ­afro-soul singer Ngohide Ruby Ann GyangGyang popularly known as
RUBY GYANG is a force to reckon with. She was born in Zaria, Kaduna State, and spent her earlier
years there before moving to Jos, Plateau state with her grandparents. From songs like Good man
to Okay O to No No No and Kale Ni, her EP is brimming with feel-good timeless romantic songs.
Her recent video Kale Ni which means look at me, Ruby gives us a classic artsy vibe. Alongside the
watchful cat peering at us from the lenses, it screams unconventional yet oddly fascinating. Sporting
a new sound, new twist to her image and a brand new outlook on life, Ruby shares with the world,
a sizzling hot, dance-driven song.

lived. They were actually missionaries, so that was home. We eventually moved to Jos. As far as
I’m concerned I’m from all three places, I’ve lived there, my family is there, so there’s no distinction.
