WaywardSon:Why are your comments clothed in negativety? Not all interacial relationships end up sour. And FYI he has investments here in Nigeria. Ever heard about Chelsea Estates? He's also got a record label, and stakes in other sectors too. |
He asked her mother what's wrong with her? And she let it pass. In country that's family meeting |
NwaNimo1:Sometimes we just need someone to hold us, someone to tell us that everything would be okay. It's not all about what she took there. And even if she took some things with her, maybe she didn't want YOU to know, like the holy book says, your right hand shouldn't know what the left is up to. |
The younger Eberechi Eze would have been a better option for that position. He's got mad skills, blistering pace, and a great work ethic. He is having a great season right now. At this point, there's no need for players who'd just complete the numbers, but those who can add value. Maybe Rohr saw something in Anderson, let's see what he has in store. |
Larryfest:Life in prison + a daily dose of beating |
When it comes to fashion, them Italians are a very talented bunch. |
The same line. When you're arrested, them politicians deny you. Enjoy your time man, at least na for foreign jail. Close your butthole though. Na who them catch, na him be the if. |
Many of those beats that made it to your list better qualify as noise than music. Honestly, they all follow a similar pattern of production, with little changes to spice them up. They not only cause pain to the ears, they leave so much to be desired from our Nigerian producers. |
Which one is : 1. Not a financial member of the party, and 2. Has spent less than one year in the party? Someone please help me out, because I'm not understanding this party. Same party that would immediately give ticket to an aspirant who decamps from an opposing party. |
badboywizzy:What ever happened to repaying the evil with good? Did our Bible not say that we'd win them over with our good deeds? |
TheGiftedOne:Them go see red |
Geniusspecs:How much is the Y8? |
It better load o |
BuhariAdvocate:So tell us the correct one na |
kettykin:Then why is he a Senator? As a legislator he should take his peoples case to the national assembly. He wants to goan celebrate yam. |
Person that would have comfortably start Arsenal's opening 2 games. See him now! He is a Walcott! |
Wouldn't it be wiser to be like Edo that is building a creche for its civil servants. Abi government want to give them paid leave? |
Something is coming. THE ALBUM MAYBE |
CrimeKsmart:Until then I am happy to know that the Basket called Akpeyi is not there and Ebuehi, and Semi Ajayi's back. |
Ivory Coast's DJ Arafat, a well-known singer in French-speaking Africa, has died following a traffic accident, state broadcaster RTI is reporting. He was admitted to hospital in the main city, Abidjan, with a fractured skull after his motorcycle collided with a car on Sunday, Jeune Afrique says. The 33-year-old died early on Monday. He has been referred to as the "king" of coupé-décalé dance music and one of his biggest hit songs, Dosabado, has over five million views on YouTube. The singer was also known for his love of motorcycles and featured them in his most recent hit, Moto Moto, that was released in May, which has more than four million You Tube views. Ivory Coast Culture Minister Maurice Kouakou Bandaman has expressed his condolences in a statement and said a tribute would be organised to honour the musician. Fellow artists have also been sharing their condolences, including Nigerian star Davido and fellow Ivorian rapper Kaaris. DJ Arafat, whose real name was Ange Didier Huon, was named best artist of the year at the Coupé-Decalé Awards in 2016 and 2017. Coupé-decalé (meaning "cut and run") was born in the early 2000s during Ivory Coast's civil war and emphasised that young people still wanted to have fun despite the conflict, reports the BBC's Hatouma Diarra from Abidjan. DJ Arafat came to symbolise the flashy well-dressed lifestyle associated with the music, which features fast percussion, deep bass and hip-hop-style vocals. |
One day some Olosho's them to enter Big Brother come back with STD |
He'd PROBABLY get more playing time. I don't know, but I think moving to Everton is a step down for him, hope he doesn't end up like Iheanacho that because he was scared of competition moved to Leicester to warm bench. I'd have been happier if Iwobi had moved to a club like wolves. That team looks like it would win the Premier league someday. And they are also on the Europa league this season. |
With Government money. |
Forgetting say the MTN, Shop rite, Multi Choice here in Nigeria employs thousands of Nigerians. And them still dey use that their MTN Sim card, them go reach house on DSTv to see if Channels, and TV C go carry their news. Idiots. |
Whizzcute:Please who's that 'somebody'? |
JonDon12:Only the wise would accept that they've made a mistake. Fools would never do that. |
What would foreigners gain from destabilizing Nigeria? They are just like their cows, cowards! |
What the all these footballers them do with all those money they bag during the high times of their career. If them wey done blow go dey complain with their family too, wetin we go do? |
Even North Korea better pass Nigeria sef. I sure say Nigerians cannot even produce that binocular |
'The smartest people collaborate first' Prior to featuring on Beyonce's latest album, some of these artists were already well on their way to global recognition. Wizkid's US breakthrough came in 2016, when he featured on Canadian rapper Drake's hit song One Dance, becoming the first Nigerian artist to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the first song to hit one billion plays on streaming service Spotify. This year also saw Mr Eazi and Burna Boy perform at Coachella in the US - one of the most famous festivals in the world. Meanwhile Tiwa Savage, who already had a management deal with Jay-Z's Roc Nation, signed an international recording deal with Universal Music Group in May. Fellow Nigerian Tekno signed a deal a distribution deal last year with Universal Music Group Nigeria and Island Records, and Yemi Alade has been touring across Europe. International features are mutually beneficial for global stars and African artists, said digital marketing director Kareem Mobolaji. "Americans and others are paying more attention now. The likes of Wizkid have shown how their presence on songs can help increase sales and listening across Africa and indeed all over the world." So for Shopsydoo, Beyoncé will also gain by working with the African stars. "It's a bigger platform for the pop and mainstream world to recognise African artists", and also a "brand-new following for Beyoncé by collaborating with some of Africa's pop culture icons", he said. "The smartest business people are those who reach out to collaborate first." |
When the album was revealed, many East Africans shared their disappointment at being left out. Many of the film's characters, after all, have Swahili names and animators for the original 1994 film reportedly based the setting on Kenya's Great Rift Valley. "We were not represented in her love letter to us. It hurts," Kenyan singer Victoria Kimani said on Twitter.

Some of Africa's biggest music stars look set for success on a global scale having been handpicked by US singer Beyoncé to appear on her Lion King-inspired album. While Nigerian stars like Wizkid and Burna Boy have already broken through to the mainstream in the UK and US, their collaboration with the superstar in The Lion King: The Gift is bound to give their careers a bigger boost. The 14-track companion piece to the Disney film is filled with sounds akin to music currently rocking the continent. Beyoncé, who curated and produced the project, has called it a "love letter to Africa". "I wanted to make sure we found the best talent from Africa, and not just use some of the sound or my own interpretation of it," she told ABC News. "I wanted it to be authentic to what is beautiful about the music in Africa." From lyrics in English, Swahili, Pidgin English, Zulu, Xhosa and Yoruba, the project incorporates several genres from Afrobeats, pop, R&B, hip-hop, and the South African version of house music known as Gqom. "A lot of the drums, chants, all of these incredible new sounds mixed with some of the producers from America, we've kind of created our own genre", Beyoncé told ABC. African acts featured include Nigeria's Tekno, Yemi Alade, Mr Eazi and Tiwa Savage, as well as Cameroon's Salatiel, and South Africa's Busiswa and Moonchild Sanelly. Several African producers also have credits on the album. Alade said some artists claim to want to pay homage to their roots but are "all talk and no action". This is not true of Beyoncé, she told the BBC.
