Bez came on stage like he owned the moment. He was dressed in an all-white ensemble, armed with his artistic guitar and ready to thrill the audience.

His performance was marred by a series of technical glitches that almost made him lose the attention of the audience. One thing Bez did well was to be in control, despite the hitches. He treated the audience to a freestyle that was welcomed by the audience. The show went on a brief break as a result of the technical glitches, it later resumed with better clarity and technical coordination.

When you think of Olamide , what comes to mind is a youngster who epitomizes talent, diligence and hard work. His rise to the top isn’t just inspiring, but worth emulating. The way Olamide continually appeals to the street, his primary constituency speaks of a King who has won the heart of his people.

Olamide Live In Concert 3 a.k.a OLIC #3 was held last night at the Convention Centre of the Eko Hotel and Suites in Victoria Island, and it was a total departure from the soaring successes recorded from the previous two editions.
It was announced on Christmas day via OLIC’s social media handle that the tickets for regular has been sold out. One would expect that since it had been sold out, on the day of the event tickets won’t be sold.

This wasn’t the case as tickets were still being sold at the venue. The capacity of the hall wasn’t big enough for the crowd who were enthusiastically waiting to have a taste of the self-proclaimed baddo .

Over the years Remilekun Khalid Safaru(Reminisce) is one of the few Nigerian indigenous rappers who have remained relevant by combining street smart, talent and sexualized music videos to remain on top of his game.

His hit tracks like Tesojue, Kako bi chicken , Skilashi, Angelina, Kpomo and the new Konsignment have the sexualisation of women’s bodies written all over them.

Just like Olamide, Phyno and Flavour whose success story cannot be told without the deployment of this explicit sexual content, Reminisce is playing this card to sell his music.

To those who are waiting for the 2nd coming of MMM, take my quote of succour: ”Let not your hearts be troubled, for you shall reap what you sow, if you faint not”.

Members of the Mavrodi Mundial Moneybox(MMM) were thrown into great panic and confusion yesterday when they logged on to their accounts and came across the message that all the accounts of investors who are due to be paid having ‘Provided Help’ (PH) to designated accounts have been frozen and have no access to request payment ‘Get Help (GH) until January.

The implication of this development is that those whose money have been invested and hoping to recoup it in December for the festive season have nothing to fall back on. Their hopes have been dashed, their expectations have hit a rock and their investment uncertain.
