Nawa. That na another OG them. Chai.

At least Freestyle still try. But where KB dey? Last guy in Trybesmen

BlueRayDick:
U need to watch the podcast. As much as it was hard to make money from music, these guys made money!

When Remedies made their first millions from tour; Eedris narrated how Keke helped them collect the cash, get hotel room with safe at Sheraton and all....

They didn't make much money from selling CD's and cassette but they made money from Shows like Benson & Hedges, Star Mega jam etc.

They said Eedris lied o. Na 350k them make. Watch Tony and Gbenga Awe interview with Daddy Freeze.

Eedris too dey lie

BlueRayDick:
Omo! That day I listened to their songs over and over again; Eddy's talent just ended up getting wasted. It's such a pity.

He was as good as Tuface; the guy could sing. It was a big business mistake he made getting emotionally entangled with Keke's Younger sister. If he had not mixed pleasure with busines , I believe he would've achieve more than he did.

Naso o. The thing hook am for throat. The things dey pain me for most of them.

A pity that they were born in the era they were born.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]That guy was underrated, abeg.
[/color]

Na setup. Industry dark. And keke were the lords then. raypower was one of the first if not the first private station in the country.

Kenis controlled the music side of things. If you go fall out with that kind people, how you won blow when your major way to blow na radio?

This life get as e be.

Eedris na street. The guy don see life. He carry everybody handicap.

See as he milk 50 cent issue. Na now I just dey hear say 50 no even dey plane then.

BlueRayDick:
Eedris just use everybody head.

If u go back and listen to their songs, u will pity Eddy and how his career later turned out. Eddy was really really talented with a very good voice. Eddy could've gotten the level of success Tuface had if he wasn't enmeshed in the fallout of the group's breakup and his marriage crash.

That Eddy get mad flows. Shade dey burst my brain every time. This life sha.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Oga, all these songs were not hits naa.

You wan compare 2face, Faze and Blackface solo album?

Which one go come last, if not blackface?

The guy good oh, but the others dey sing pass am.[/color]

First solo album, Two face, Blackface then Faze. Ghetto child album was mad back then.

iamoyindamola:
Calm down I never said black faze is not good
He went for Igbo instead of music

That's not true. Igbo did nothing to him.

Were not hits?

"Oh lord. Show me the way. To make my pay" was not a hit?

Una no dey listen to blackface. I never even call Erima sef o.

As an independent artist, the guy did numbers. Forget

izzou:
[color=royalblue]After Ahead of the game, which of his songs was a hit again?

Abegg

The guy was known to be the songwriter, and i would give him his flowers for that.

But for singing, he was the distant third in that group.[/color]

Una no dey follow naija music. Na 50 cent dey una cd rack that year.


Show Me The Way, Be Ur Man, Carry Us Go, Why Oh Why, E Dey Pain Me, Hard Life. Ghetto Child album was dope.

Ahead of the game was even in his tribunal album with Rocksteady and Mallam Spicey.

Not aligning with any big music head was his downfall. No platforms like spotify then. Plus I don't think Youtube was already big then.

Industry mess am up.

Jodera:
I also say it here that Ten Hag have experience trophy -wise in managing his team compared to Arteta so yeah, there's high probability that with a stable and good environment he'll deliver trophies as well as good football quickly compared to Arteta

As for Arteta, we're already done in setting/playing the good football , the next is trophies which we're in that phase and we're already gunning for.

All these things is about Process sha. That's why the perfect model I always admire and look up to is Klopp and Liverpool. I remember defending him even when others are calling him bottler. Now, he's rated as one of the best or top 2 coaches in the world

Ten Hag has one ego that will destroy him. Apart from that, he should be fine.

He should go and let his ego finish him somewhere else.

iamoyindamola:
Same faze 😂😂😂

E sure me say you go dey among people wey been dey talk say Nigerian music no fit dey your phone that year.

Faze irrelevant?

No talk am for hood o

iamoyindamola:
Black faze became an addict
Wasted talent

Ahhh. Where you see this one now?

No talk to Idolo like that.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Maybe he chose his own path.

But saying Faze didn't have talent? Ahn Ahn.

Apart from us hearing that Blakface writes, wetin e sabi sing?[/color]

Black dey sing o. No play.

Dancehall, Reggae, Rap, vocals. He dey.

iamoyindamola:
But that’s the truth
Btw he was favorite in the group but when they dissolved he was irrelevant

Faze Irrelevant ?

You no follow naija music back in those days. Two solid solo albums wey I fit remeber

izzou:
[color=royalblue]What did you just say? [/color]

I weak. I just see am now.

All of them for Pboys were talented

raumdeuter:
It depends on you. Alaba is an International market in Lagos, MMA is an international airport minutes from the shrine

At least those entities added international to their names. MMA is used for international flights. I don't know why Alaba is international. But they rate themselves.

Is shrine called international?

BlueRayDick:
Did anybody here really follow the Eedris, Eddy and Tony Tetuila matter as per their recent podcast cameo?

Over the weekend I watched the full version of Eedris podcast session with dem Nedu & the gang , I watched Eddy's interview with Freeze(In reaction to Eedris podcast session) and Freeze's interview with Tony Tetuila. All I can say is Omo!

Eedris gave a version of the formation of The Remedies that goes thus; Eedris had been doing music in the north before coming to Lagos. He was squating in Lagos and was hustling to make music and along the line he met Eddy. They made music together, one thing led to another they met Keke Ogungbe who was already on raypower, he gave them airtime and the song blew.

They made money and Keke asked them for the name they will call themselves and he mentioned how he was called Remedy in the north. So Keke asked if he can call them The Remedies and they agreed. Somehow they met Tony Tetuila whose mum was rich and the mum gave them 60k which they used for music promotion and all.

After listening to Eddy's intevrview giving his side of the story and debunking allegations Eedris made about Eddy being the greedy one who wanted Tony out cos he (Eddy ) felt Eedris and Eddy are the one's doing the work while Tony was not really talented; I believe Eedris was the snake in the group.

From Eddy's account of the events, it appears Eedris met with Tony's mum and collected money from her with the intention to carry her son along. Eedris did this without ever informing Eddy about it. He just smuggled Tony into the group knowing he had limited talent. Eedris was playing middle man in the game. Eedris was the one that advised Tony to start writing his songs by himself cos he felt Eddy would soon push Tony out .

Eedris advised Tony to move close to Plantashun boiz and that was what made Tony feature them in his first single "Omode Meta " in which he dissed Eedris and Eddy. Immediately, Same Eedris advised Eddy for them to respond and this led to them releasing "Jealousy" in response.

Eddy claimed he never even knew or met Tony until the day they (himself and Eedris) were to reocord their first single and Eedris came to the venue with one boy limping behind him( i.e Tony) .

Eddy happens to be the one that was 4cked the most in the group at the end of the day. Omo I felt for him watching the video. Niggga completely broke down and was sobbing in the video. He was 4cked by even his own wife who was the vice president of Kennis music as at that time. I think he made a costly mistake marrying Kenny St. Brown. While he was trying to leave Kennis music; his wife was an executive on Kennis Music. The same wife was having dinner with Eedris his partner. The story long. By the time his marriage was over, Eddy was well over 4cked.

Tony is what we call "omo oni mama" on the streets. His parents were comfortable; at the time the group was on; his Mercedes benz was he first car they used to commute as a group. At a time there was no mobile phone, he had a cellular phone. These things made him prey to Eedris who really everyone around him. Tony listened to Eedris' advise of writing his own songs himself and was able to make commercial success after the group split.

There's a lot to unpack in those 3 interviews , but one thing that stick out for me is that Eedris is not who he's actually portraying himself to be to the younger generation. The whole videos and narration will give u nostalgia sha if remember the Nigerian music industry in the late 90's/early 2000's

Eedris story has a lot of loopholes.

Most were saying things that would justify them.

Eedris said he told Tony to gum Pboys. No be you bring am come group? Why no stand up for him? Blackface that said in one old interview with Osagie that he was the one that met Remedies and told ask them why were they treating him like that. Blackface talked about how thye helped him write songs for his first album too.

Eedris na snake. That part where he denied Eddy before keke when they wanted to leave was where I knew the guy na snake.

Industry messed Eddy up. I can't remember any of his hit solo single. Person wey get pure talent (Not Hazard type) pass all of them. I believe they blacklisted him.

raumdeuter:
Will Washington make it local

Will Lagos make it international?

raumdeuter:
So wetin concern his father inside

Of course na Fela shrine be that local shrine. Surely you can't see the insult

Is the shrine in Washington?

Jodera:
Ten Hag also bought himself some space by winning trophy and taking them back to champions League. The issue is what happens after that?. Both played terrible football, like very very terrible football and results aren't showing on the pitch after some acquisitions so the fans are rightfully asking them to be sacked.


I'm just giving reasons why Ten Hag might not be as bad as he's presently showing because of how the environment is. Afterall we all saw how coveted he was in a stable environment

Okay. What has the Arteta done for you guys other than beautiful football after the terrible football with trophies.

Maybe he shouldn't have stopped playing teribble football.

We want trophies and good football. We don't want one. We want both.

Jodera:
Maybe Una fit win am afterall Ten Hag get more matches and silverware experiences than Arteta na.

But then, everything needs to be resolved at the top first for coaches to thrive

I hear

Jodera:


But for real, imagine say we sack Arteta na, by now we for don dey do hire and fire anyhow with lots of money spent.

SIr RJ seems to be getting it right in the recruitment and football sides of things upward for any manager to excel, exactly what arsenal did when the recruitment side was suffering too and Arteta was the one handpicking players himself (just like ten Hag now)

Why not wait and see how he'll fare when the recruitment and stability is there for a manager to strive?

One thing is certain, if Sir Rj Is serous, Most of these players will be gone(including the one Ten Hag signed), same way Most of our players too were gone including the one Arteta signed at first too.

Yeah. Una don come win EPL or UCL with am?

oliverano:


Hazard; "when it comes to pure football, I'm better than Ronaldo"

For Hazard, pure football must mean dancing makosa in a monkey post.

For ETH, pure abilities must mean being outcoached by Wolves and other mid teams.

That's the pure truth bro.

Leyqute:
He may be serious. Odizey is a man of many colors

.

Jokerman:
🤓😂

The Hazard of coaching

Leyqute:
Sarcasm?

Forget achievement.

Make we come down to pure abilities.

Based on pure coaching abilities, ETH is better than Pep.

If my boy Antony no go play, Amad sef no go play.

I dey see the plan

That man male winch

afrodoc2:
Haaland is the only sure banker, and of recent Foden and Alvarez. Once KDB regains full fitness i go dump those 2 and leave only Haaland because the rotation go mad wella.

Yeah. Halland is sure banker.

I will take out Foden soon.

afrodoc2:
Odizeey your KDB points don lazzident.
