That guy run them local scam

Person wey say he enter desert. That one fit do anything for money.

BlueRayDick:


Aswear !

Eedris really senior them for streets level 💯
Eddy mentioned how his parents who resides abroad sent him $5000 which he was using to run their initial music hustle ; he dey combine school and music .

Eedris don tear eyes all those period ; he don enter desert come back even thought of joining ECOMOG soldier at a point

Eedris just chop Eddy money , chop Tetuila mama money and still ended up causing rift between both when they started making loney together as a group. The snake wey tempt eve dey learn work where Eedris dey.

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

raumdeuter:


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

odizeey:


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.

Emaprince:
The album was a very good one..but it seemed a single producer worked on it and the beats were almost similar.

Show me the way was one of my favorite then. I binged on that album for long.

Emaprince:
I really don't know much about their story until they started their fun beef. I call if fun beef cos it doesn't look anything serious.

It's true Tony's mom was financially ok....cos I've actually met Tony tetuila when he was still staying with his mom and siblings at no 3 grace street, Bariga. I think they occupied the whole first floor of the building or maybe the art quake was staying in the other flat...cos I usually see ice k of artquake around there. I was still little then. My gist with Ice k showed that Tony was too close to plantation boiz...

According to the level of talents in the industry back then, I wouldn't call Tony untalented. Edris himself was untalented too..going by the migidifigidi lyrics. He was just good in making commercial chorus...and that was the main thing back then. That's also what Tony capitalized on..like he did in "my car". Tuface and black face were the good artists that can write well then.

You are right about Edie mistake in marrying Kenny sister. Maybe that was what finished him finally.

Three of them lacked the stamina to last long.

So while Obi was using Anambra to buy crates of Hero beer which is now worth next to nothing

Abia was attracting power plants

Segedinho:
Any news from UAE as regards the restriction placed on Nigeria


Abi na audio reversal?

BlueRayDick:


Maybe Tetuila was not untalented , but he was the less talented amongst the 3 of them while their union lasted .

Eddy was really good and Eedris had the commercial rap thingy going well for him that time . I think Eddy just lost his head in the whole blowout from their breakup and his eventual failed marriage .

The way Eedris kept on slurping on Keke's
Diiick in that podcast video ehn..... He just gave me a vibe of somonew who always manipulate others to have his way

BlueRayDick:


We are still working out the modalities of the lifting of the ban.

We are working closer with our UAE counterparts for almost a year now
