In a post on Instagram, DJ Cuppy shared her announcement to her parents that she just got accepted into Oxford for her Master's Program. The post read:

'HUGE NEWS and I had to tell my parents first!...I have been accepted into Oxford University for a Masters!!! This degree is dedicated to @Nana_otedola & @FemiOtedola #CuppyOnAMission

To be honest, this is extremely surprising because not only is she a successful artist (As a DJ and as a Musician), she is the daughter of one of the richest people in Nigeria. The important thing is that she made a choice, a wonderful one at that and she proves wrong the notion that people in music can't get higher education or learning as a result of fame, tight schedule and not seeing the essence of it.

She also shared a video of...http://thescoove.africa/dj-cuppy-announces-going-to-oxford-for-her-masters-program/

Coming 2 America as promised, has been released today, March 5, 2021

Coming to America was first released in 1988. It is a romantic comedy film which evolved around the story of the prince of Zumunda. He wanted to find love after his parents planned to arrange a bride for him and he moved to New York to find a woman who loved him for who he is and not because of his status. Coming to America was a global hit because of how extremely relatable the story was. On January 11, 2019, it was announced that the sequel of the movie- Coming 2 America was already in production.
When his father dies, Prince Akeem of Zamunda, Africa becomes king. Akeem has three daughters but no sons to inherit his throne upon his eventual death. Because of this, his life and the throne are in danger of being taken by General Izzi. Akeem learns he has a son in Queens, New York from a one night stand he had years ago while living there. He and his confidant, Semmi go to Queens and meet his son, Lavelle. They bring him back to Zamunda along with his mother, Mary. Once there they introduce him to Akeem's family and the rest of the court. They begin to groom him into a prince and heir to the throne

Actor Eddie Murphy would reprise his role as the prince of Zumunda and Nigerian-American singer Davido would also star in the movie. The film is scheduled to be theatrically released on December 2020, but due to the covid-19 pandemic, Amazon studios brought the distribution rights and released it digitally today where it will only be streamed.

The world as we know it changes every day .There are times when we gradually become the things we detest and we don’t even know it. We do some things that seem subtly good but in reality, that is just another phrase for bad. It is not bad for us to worry about our personal development once in a while and that is why I have come up with this post.

To have Clout means to have power or influence. When you have this, people regard you and your opinions matter a lot. People are also interested in how you live your life if you have Clout.

Over the years, the greatest Clout platform is social media because of how people spend time on it than they actually do in physical interactions.

NAMASTE WAHALA MOVIE REVIEW

On February 14, 2021, Namaste Wahala was released much to the excitement of a lot of people because not only is it a romance movie released on valentine’s day, it is a Nollywood-Bollywood collaboration. Despite the excitement that came with the movie, did it really do justice to our expectations? Or was it really worth watching? Therefore, we have decided to do a review of the movie by paying attention to Characterization, plot, chemistry among characters and a few more things.



Storyline

From the trailer, we all knew that ‘Namaste Wahala’ was about a Nigerian girl meeting an Indian guy and that they fell in love. Because of cultural differences, their parents didn’t give their relationship a go-ahead and kicked against it greatly. I had less expectations for the movie because I thought it would be based on that single event.

Imagine my excitement when I learnt that it also discussed sexual abuse extensively and created a different environment for us to focus on apart from what was going on between Ruslaan Mumtaz (Raj) and Inidima Okojie (Didi). The Law firm owned by Didi’s firm also added to making the storyline concrete and making the movie more dramatic. It would have been a waste of money and great collaboration if the movie just focused on getting Raj and Didi’s parent to give their approval on their relationship.

The music industry is a gold mine. No, scrap that. It is a valueless mine because once you are talented and are ready to put in the work, you are set up for a lifetime of success and well, financial freedom. It is that easy right? Well the bombshell is, it is not always that easy for upcoming and or independent artists who haven’t had a chance to put their music out there to the world or to be discovered by people.



It is for this reason that we have put up a list of seven great free streaming platforms where you could upload your music and still get paid. Not only that, you get a chance to be discovered and who knows, your breakout may be around the corner!

A lot of people now find it more comfortable and enjoyable to see movies with subtitles because it allows them to fully grasp the entrails of the movie, especially if it is a very interesting or complex one. If you are someone like me who can barely see movies without subtitles, then you are probably looking for the best sites where you can easily download subtitles. Therefore, here is my list of the best sites for you to download movie and TV series subtitles.

8 Addic7ed Addic7.ed is a one feature site i.e. you can only download subtitles for TV series there. It is my favorite site for downloading subtitles for TV series because of how extremely perfect it is. There are several languages you can choose from and the subtitles are perfect most of the time, so you don’t have to go through the stress of adjusting the speed. It is also like a database for TV series subtitles because unlike most sites, Addic7.ed has every TV series subtitle.
