April 22nd Is Around The Corner When It Will Be 3 Years That DAGRIN Died by Nobody: 9:47pm On Apr 10, 2013 |
April 22nd is around the corner when it will be 3 years that our brother left us to be in the bosom of our lord, rest assured he's smiling down on us wishing we do the right things, may his soul rest in perfect peace...... DAGRIN! Lives on in our hearts Oladapo Olaitan Olaonipekun,also known as Dagrin (21 October 1987 – 22 April 2010), was an award winning Nigerian rapper from Ogun, Nigeria.A film of his life entitled Ghetto Dreamz was released in April 2011. Biography Dagrin's home was in Meiran, Alagbado, Lagos. His style of rapping incorporated Yoruba, English and Pidgin English. In 2010 he was nominated for the Nigerian Entertainment Awards for Best Album (C.E.O.), Hottest Single "Kondo", Best Rap Act and Best Collaboration with vocals. His album C.E.O. (Chief executive Omota English: Chief Executive Gangster) won the Hip hop World Award 2010 for best rap album.From it came the singles "Pon Pon Pon", and "Kondo". Dagrin worked with other Nigerian artists such as Y.Q, 9ice, M.I, Iceberg Slim, Bigiano and Konga. He associated with music producers like Sossick, Dr Frabz, Sheyman, and Frenzy. He died at the age of 22 on 22 April 2010 after a vehicle accident in Lagos, Nigeria. WORK Dagrin's single "Pon Pon Pon" has some cultural significance, it talks about the life style in Lagos, Agege,Ifewara Mushin, Ikeja, Surulere, Isale Eko, and many other parts of south western Nigeria where life in the slums mixes up with life in the affluent cities and parts of Lagos Nigeria. His songs touch upon ethnicity, pride, while surviving the streets of Lagos and a hint of criticism elderly people hurls against bad behaviour. The music video proudly displays young people in their twenties and early thirties proudly displaying their tribal marks in retrospect of the old Yoruba empire of Ile-Ife. Ashawo dey every where,even gay dey fear,say ashawo collect all the boys for this year, I no say I be sinner GOD I dey sin,every day we go shayo all night na dry gin,I know say heaven dey, GOD even dey,if u wan chop cake na then u go know say oven dey...RIP. "Erin loo, Ajanaku loo, Akogun loo, Daaaaaagrini loo"........" taba ni kama so lati eni d'oola o, koni ki eni to lo, ko pada bo wa oooo, o ti di arin nako, od'oju ala o, awa toku ka gbaye se rere". RIP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OMOITA!!! COMMENT IF YOU REALLY MISS HIM source http://www.bekkyblog.com/2013/04/april-22nd-is-around-corner-when-it.html
