Celebrities / Federal Government To Order 2face Arrest ? by thesoundng: 11:32pm On Jul 24, 2017
In a recent interview with HipTV, Nigerian Singer, Blackface, has claimed that 2Face is yet to acknowledge him for his role in writing African Queen.

The dancehall, ragga and reggae singer has no intention of letting his beef with former Plantashun boyz band mate, 2Face simmer down, as he is insisting 2face must apologize.

Speaking on Faze’s move to reconcile them, he said:


“Faze is my friend and he is going to do his own bit. But, one thing that he does not know is that who feels it, knows it. He didn’t write the song, I did. So he does not know what I am talking about.It is easy for him to call for peace. But then, it is the duty of the offender to apologise for his action. I can’t keep quiet about what happened because I haven’t offended anybody. I have not stolen anybody’s song.”

He also stated that the Federal Government is yet to in.....

Celebrities / The Definitive A-Z Encyclopedia Of Wizkid by thesoundng: 7:51pm On Jul 20, 2017
The buzz sounding Wizkid is not mere hype: there’s no bigger act on the continent than him right now. A combination of his boyish charm and his ability to deliver hits after hits has ensured that his being signed to an international record company is not a dud.

His first body of work on SONY RCA just came out to much applause. Any listener would agree that it is earned. Otherwise successful artistes have tweaked their sound to sound like his (no bigger example than Drake) and he has shone more light on the continent of Africa with his music.

With the release of Sounds From The Other Side, it is a fitting time for explore the man Wizkid and give context to his continuous rise. This is the encyclopedia of Wizkid, presented by Thesoundng



A

Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun

How fitting it is that a Wizkid encyclopaedia starts with the man’s government name? Born 16 July 1990 in Lagos, he would grow up to be one of the most iconic music stars of his generation.

B

Banky W

Without a doubt, Banky is the most important figure of Wizkid’s career. When he returned to Nigeria to start a record label, Wizkid was the first act signed (along with Skales) and that opportunity helped the teenage star show the world what he had to offer. Beyond the music, the two seemed to be brothers that really got along. There were rumours of infighting before Wizkid departed EME after his second album AYO but it’s been nothing but love from both parties since then.

C

Come Closer

The second duet with Canadian rapper Drake after the global success of One Dance became Wizkid’s fastest video to hit the 20 million mark on YouTube. It defied critics of the artiste when he was a no show for the visuals to One Dance and Drake was unavailable for this one’s. Had leaked earlier in the year and was Wizkid’s first official single under SONY/RCA.

D

Davido

Pop star and Wizkid’s arch nemesis. Except for the slight difference in age and birth location, the two could very well pass for siblings. They’ve had similar success- and live similar lifestyles. However as it sometimes happens, these two do not like each other; and that’s putting it lightly. They shot barbs at each other on wax and on social media. The most recent being the Yankee passport/frog voice subs on Twitter.

Drake

Canadian rapper who rode on Ojuelegba’s success to create an Africa flavoured album that turned out to be his most successful yet. He can thank Wizkid for that. The influence of the other’s music has been evident in the two of them. After jumping on Ojuelegba, Drake has gone on to be on Come Closer, returning the favour Wizkid did not for him on One Dance.

E

EME

Empire Mates Entertainment, Wizkid’s home for nearly six years. Owned by Banky W and the Demuren brothers, the record label was successful with its marquee signing even if the other guy Skales was dissatisfied at a point. For now only Banky W continues to be the main player since his two biggest stars left, leaving Niyola and Shaydee to step out of the shadows.



F

Fela

Afrobeat god. Music genius. Social crusader and thorn in the flesh of Nigerian government before his 1997 death. Fela is obviously Wizkid’s biggest influence right now. He references Fela in several interviews, dances like him and got the man tattooed on his arm.

Celebrities / Rapper Yung6ix Has A Message For Lai Mohammed Over Proposed Ban On Videos Abroad by thesoundng: 2:33pm On Jul 18, 2017
Rapper Yung6ix has berated Lai Mohammed after he revealed about the proposed ban on Music Videos, Movies shot abroad.



Seems like Lai Mohammed has angered some people..

Since the news of the proposed ban on Music Video shoot, Movies abroad.. Folks have condemned the proposed ban, with many saying the Federal Government have gone too far.

Peter Okoye also reacted to this news, and he totally condemned the act. In a series of tweets, he wrote;







Even his Elder brother, Jude Okoye reacted to the development;

‘Smh. An industry they NEVER encouraged, supported or empowered is what they now want to control. Let all of you stop running to abroad when you are sick as na naija money una dey use patronize oyibo hospital dem. You people are the ones refusing to fix our health facilities so u travel out when mosquito bite una.

So why tell us where to record when u can’t provide uninterrupted power here in Nigeria. Sometime I wonder how we got it all wrong. Una children when dey sch for abroad na which money una dey use patronize them? Abeg stfu!’

Now, Rapper Yung6ix isn’t having any of it, and he’s taken to Twitter to air his thought.
