Men Are Stalking Me And Won't Let Me Rest-Omotola by AloyEmeka5: 2:20am On Aug 17, 2010 |
[size=14pt]My battle with men’s advances is worse as a married woman – Omotola[/size] By ADEOLA BALOGUN Saturday, 14 Aug 2010 Omotola Omotola Jalade Ekeinde is one of the most familiar faces in the Nigerian movie industry. Five years ago, when it looked like the industry was troubled, she diversified into music and came out with an album. She speaks with ADEOLA BALOGUN about her music and marital life. T here are reports in the media that you are back in the studio. What is it all about? It is about my second album. I have been on it for two years. Now, it is ready. We will be launching it in September. I have shot about four videos now; one has been released and the other one will be released shortly. I heard that you shot your videos in South Africa. Well, three of them were shot here in Nigeria; two are being shot in South Africa. One is out, the other one is not yet out. I am not one of those who believe in shooting videos in foreign lands. What happened arose totally out of necessity. It was because the person I wanted to do it lives there; not necessarily that I am crazy about having my videos shot outside. So, how many do you intend to shoot before you release the album? Or are you planning to bring everything out at the same time? That has always been my dream, even with my first album. I really wanted to shoot all my videos. This is because I believe that videos don’t necessarily have to be big budget jobs. I have seen videos of international acts such as Celine Dion, and sometimes, they are very simple videos. I would love to shoot all my videos, though I know that there is economic downturn. But we will do our best. Are you affected by the downturn? Well, I guess the whole world is affected, but I am not going to say it is a personal worry. Contrary to the popular thinking that you only strayed into music by accident, you seem to have suddenly turned into a musician, Suddenly? Well, I have been doing music since 2005. Remember, that is about five years ago. Of course, I remember that you went into it when you and some other big stars in Nollywood had crisis and some of you were banned from acting. And that is what I was trying to make people understand. But I just realise that sometimes, you do your bit and leave the rest for time. Basically, what I am trying to say is that at that time, it was unfortunate that it coincided with the period a lot of my colleagues were coming out to sing. It was not something that I started planning that year. I had planned the album, Gba, which came out in 2005, for two years. When it came out, people started saying ‘oh, everybody is now taking to music.’ It was not like that. It was something I had wanted to do. Music is a career for me, and a very emotional one at that, because I write my songs and sing from my heart. I sing my life when I am singing, whether you like it or not. I sing what I feel in my spirit; what I feel in my heart. And I drew closer actually to my music career because like acting, it is a gift also. But while I act out other people’s lives, I feel like most times, I am singing about myself or about things that are very close to me or things that I believe in. http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art201008146102081 |
