Thanks.

@bolajibaok
I have it on tape. Will take a while say a few days for me to digitize it as I nod to find it in my tape archive which will be by weekendm Bear with me.

@brokoto plz post ur email here or ur numbr if u plz to richgamutonline@yahoo.com. I nid a tenor. Tnx.

[quote author=fresh_dude]What, I ask, is the originality in@the works of P-Square? Is it Usher-like dance moves, or sampling countless songs on their mediocre albums? My friend please open a dictionary and read the meaning of original(ity).[/quote]God bless u well well

Give me some time, like 3 or 4 days...

mruknaijaboy: to me I think the artist in Nigeria who have the most longevity is P-Square as they have the most originality, Wizkid and D'Banj I can see them dying out in the next 5 years, but then again most artists have a successful lifespan of 5 years anyway

Longetivity, yes; originalityn hmmm...

Nice song generally.
Vocal ability of the artiste is decent bt I'm gettin that feelin that he's really in the song. A vocal coach may be employd for a revoicin if he won't get vocal trainin altogethr.
D autotune should be properly tuned and at the rap bit, it was unnecessary. Nice delivery anyway, rap and singin.D producer drop and label drop @ d beginnnin can be left out for a deeply r&b song IMHO. Dont crucify me 4 dat. Jus my opinion.
D production is actually on point. I like the r&b and d calculated (and brief) afropop fusion
The lyrics are not bad albeit some nursery/cliche line and rhymes like
......she look so fly
........she feel so shy
......hips dont lie etc

Again, saved by delivery though.
Not sounding like d average naija thingy
Keep it up!

Plz get a BB way below a Porshe level (mayb BB7 - don't know how much it costs tho'). Porshe will not give u nada!!! Even for the people that can afford it, it is not a wise investment unless you have at least a N10m account or more. The so called prestige is not worth it below that.

Dependin on who u r working with N20,000-N100,000 should be o.k. to arrange, produce, mix and master. Dont mean it cant jump to like N500,000 o! As I said, depends on who u r working wit.

This Steele guy just stole my heart with this. Never respected his hustle before now. He just woke up from slumber. Hope he sustains the flow and not sink into the cliche...

Perhaps the siege is over ismhab. I dont know but I'm guessing as the above seems to say...

Kano State Police told SaharaReporters an ambush at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday by suspected members of Boko Haram at a checkpoint at Madobi, Kano state. The attackers, in a Golf Volkswagon and 3 motorbikes, launched the surprise attack on the security checkpoint in Madobi/ Sanni Abacha Youth Centre in Panshekara, killing one.

Police regrouped and chased the attackers who abandoned their vehicles and escaped on foot. Police then searched the nearby Sani Abacha Youth Center in Pashekara and discovered bombs and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) already planted there by the insurgents.

Commissioner of police in the state, Alhaji K Idris, said they called in a special bomb unit to carry out the controlled detonation of the IEDs whose explosive sounds panicked local area residents.

A search is underway for the attackers.

@decryptor and @mekaboy get serious plz. U dont want to be where the poster is right now. Pray for ismhab and every sane citizen fearing for their useful lives around there. JTF too if I may add. It shall be well my brother (ismhab). You will come back here to post happily IJN and if u r a muslim, insha Allah!

Plz be fair my people!!! Even at demo level, any good ear for pop music will definitely see the prospects in this beat. I love IDJA o, but truth be said this is also a very good effort from whoever did it.

Used a used Toyota Celica '86 from '99 to 2001. No probs. But dat Chinese woe, Geely is a problem to the auto industry IMHO. I may be wrong but experience speaks

Post ur email address or number here. Cant leave it in the open.

Send your number to richgamutonline@yahoo.com.

Good. Wanna join you but how?

I only read the first page and decided to reply without reading post that are either borne out of needless ethnic bigotry. I am married to an igbo woman and I'm a yobura person but I consider myself a Nigerian and also a world citizen. Prior to my NYSC, I had been conditioned to believing every other tribe save mine have problems only to discover that we are all just deceiving ourselves: we all have issues peculiar to us all either because of our beliefs or our environment. Truly, there are culture barriers that can be broken if only we can love each other like God asks to.

My wife is armed with two stories that are factual and she knows the characters that defied their parents to carry on with the multi-cultural nuptial. They are happy and thankful to God now and even all parties have "reconciled". I'm not saying go against your parents, but let them see that the reason God created us differently is to add flavour to our lives and spice it up. Also, to see how well we receive each other. We were all created by God to mingle and not to turn ourselves to gods and subjects.

Even before letting our respective parents know, we prayed and to God be the glory, there were no problems. Yes there were concerns and fears as to cultural differences but all were allayed as everyone wanted it to work. We have two beautiful children and are happy.

Nigeria may have been forced on us but God allowed it for a reason!!!

Definately Phatwall.
Foreign mixes are usually better and that results in better masters no doubt. It's not all the time though. We have a couple of 9ja engineers that do the job i.e. Foster Zino, Sesan etc.
What we do in Nigeria most of the time is mix extremely hot and then toast, sorry master. We don't even consider tracking properly and when you see those gigantic mixers and consoles in studios, sorry, they are just being used as amplifiers with stereo outs only.
Have you ever tracked all instruments on a song separately into audio? Do you take note of mic placements when recording vocals, Do you even make use of dedicated pre-amps outside the ones built in soundcards and mixers? Do you have at least a -6dB headroom on your master buss when mixing, Do you take advantage of proper uses of de-esser, eq, compressors, delays and reverbs?
After all is done with a mix that is hotter than hell, we usually pass it though T Racks or something like that to do further damage with vocals screaming like tortured demons over instrumentals with clarity of elements.
A good mix (in Nigeria and abroad) would however sound firstly, warm and pleasing to the ear and not cause fatigue with everything in its own sonic space and proper dynamics. After that, the master will give it tonal balance, punch and weight!
Just my thoughts,

Pls let us not confuse record labeel and recording studio! Yes most record labels in 9ja have studios but that is 4 their artists and 4 commercial uses. They don't neccessarily shoot videos for people either. All the above have studios, going to use their studio does not mean a thing like being signed on the label. People usually tend to think labels are record studios and vice versa. If talking about quality of studios, Orangootan and Questionmark rule but Im not sure if the former uses theirs commercially. If you need to shoot videos, get to production companies but that is not to say that the labels cant connect you but why do dat when ther's DJT, Clarence, Wudi Awa dem there?

Ok dude. Hit me up on my e mail and lets get started.

Well, hit me up on richgamutonline@yahoo.com if u can satisfy d following:

3. I knw I satisfy all ur points bt in ordr nt 2 even wast each othrs tym, once u email me, we will agree on testin out each othr 2 acertain dat its worth sweatin 4
Ciao!

I jus came across some N50 notes amounting to about N15, 000 that must have been kept since about 1999 or 2000. Plz does anyone have an idea on how to "redeem" them, that is, change it to useable currency? Thanks!

Apologies 4 my late arrival.
@ Sisi_Kill
Not all TV ppl but u cldnt be "truer" about Ms Jessica Alba.
Havent been abl to watch many movies of late but I think d newest Superman movie was not only blow par but had a dull, boring and non-roll-interpreting actors availabl, that is, d lead act. Feel same about T Cruise (except for films like The Firm n Eyes Wide Shut) but this bias does not influence my disdain 4 MI2. Yes n sorry. Cat Woman enters my list and Monster House (animation). Most Van Damme n Dolph Lundgren movies enter my list n dat may not b unconnected with their lo budget status though not entirely. I have enjoyed many of Ben Stiller n Will Farell flicks bt truth be said, "drab humour" I must agree with a poster, often characterises their movies,
