"I WISH CLARENCE PETER IS NOT MY SON" SAYS DAD, SHINA PETERS.




 Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Just recently,  popular OAP and Video blogger, Toke Makinwa, hosted legendary music icon, Sir Shina Peters on Hiptv's 'Trending'.

The Nigerian Juju musician who was born Oluwashina Akanbi Peters appeared very healthy and lively as he spoke about his life, career and his relationship with his son, Clarence Peters.

'I would soon be 60, but I believe I am where I'm today by the grace of God. Praying and fasting also helped in sustaining me in the industry. I also owe part of my success to story to Late Fela, for his encouragement and candid advice. He warned me not to be a one sided musician, but to do something that would be accepted by all- music for all nigerians. That advice helped my acceptability in the whole country and across."

When asked how he feels about the success of his son, Clarence Peters who has taken Nigerian music videos to the next level, the Ogun State born ace musician gushed thus.

"Clearance is from heaven. I call him Yomi. When I look at him, I see myself through him. He is just too much. I'm not saying all these because he is my son. I wish he is not my son, I would have showered him with lot more praises for the great things he has been doing in the music industry. It was a good combination from Clarion his mother, who's also a proffesional in her acting field, and myself. I'm so proud of him."
Beautiful Anambra State born actress, Clarion Chukwura and Sir Shina Peters were entangled in sweet romance in the 80's which bore the ace music video director, Clarence Peters.

Aged 31, Clarence is synonymous with top quality musical videos and he has been responsible for stamping the works of lots of musical artistes deep inside our minds with those great musical videos that we just love to watch. As significant as his success is however, he is one individual who, though having two entertainment icons as parents, has achieved most of what he has without necessarily climbing on their backs.

"WE GET MONEY FROM EVIL MUSIC" SAYS TERRY G.






Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Benue State born 'crazy' musician, Terry G,  who is also a proud dad, has revealed that the reason why artistes of today have lewd lyrics in their songs is because they make millions from it.

The “Gbagbe Osi” crooner revealed that only songs without any morale backing fetch them more money than the usual sensible musics.

Reacting to the current trend of bad music in the entertainment industry, he said “You see, today’s music is evil. We call it commercial music. This is the music that brings the millions. People are still doing good music here but there is no buzz. It is the commercial music which some people term ‘bad’ music that is getting us the millions. It is all about the business of music and the ‘glam’ that accompanies it. I said before that I was doing good music before, but the buzz was not there. So, I researched what the need is and experimented with songs like ‘Make I Nak You Apako’ and others. It is not easy doing music; recording a song is a piece of creativity and you just do it from your heart and await the feedback from listeners”.

ACE COMEDIAN "JULIUS AGWU" STEP DOWN FROM POLITICAL AMBITION, DUE TO PRESSURE FROM OCCULTIC GROUPS TO JOIN THEM.










Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

It has been reported that ace comedian, Julius Agwu has abandoned his political ambition to be the next governor of Rivers State come 2015, shortly after he claimed occult members have been threatening him to join them or he won't make the seat.

However, it was revealed that his change of heart is coming on the heels after he reportedly had with his Ikwerre kinsmen.

According to Julius Agwu’s manager, Prince Sunday Uwem, "There was a meeting on Thursday, October 30, between Julius Agwu and his kinsmen from Ikwere, and it was agreed that he should step down from the governorship race because the current Governor Rotimi Amaechi is his friend and they are both from the same area."

Speaking further, Uwem said: ‘They’ll want the position to rotate to another part of the state and Julius Agwu has decided to listen to his people and withdraw from contesting.’ This, however, doesn’t mean the end of the road for Julius Agwu’s budding political career as the comedian is said to have only withdrawn from the governorship race and has not ruled out contesting for any other office. Earlier this month, sources in the comedian’s camp revealed exclusively that Governor Amaechi invited Julius to a meeting, urging him to step down based on the rotation quota of the state.

Sources also disclosed that the comedian is being offered a legislative post but he’s yet to fully decide what his next line of action will be, which will be determined by a couple more meetings he is planning with stakeholders to ascertain what other viable positions are available for him.

Julius Agwu declared his intention to run for the governorship election of his native Rivers State in August 2014.

NIGERIA RAP STAR "RUGGEDMAN" PROFESS HIS LOVE FOR AMERICA SINGER "RIHANNA"







Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Michael Stephens, popularly known as Ruggedman, is a graduate of Political Science from the Lagos State University, Ojo. In 1989, he started exploring music and in 1999, he produced his own songs and released two tracks. Since launching his music some years ago, the rapper has grown to become a top artiste in Nigeria. Apart from music, Ruggedman is into fashion and event hosting. In this exclusive interview, the rapper talked about some issues.
How have you been coping with the industry

It has been very hectic (for me) because I am working on my artiste (Mbryo), mine and my 20th Sept Wear clothing line projects. It has also been fun because I am a workaholic and I enjoy doing what I love.

What about rumoured affair with Maheeda, Halima and Monalisa

These happen because certain people can’t keep their noses out of my private life. So, they try to forcefully attach me to any female they see around or with me. Those are not scandals, (they are) just antics of attention/hit seeking bloggers. Maheeda modelled a top from my soon to be re-launched 20th Sept Wear clothing line. Super diva Monalisa did the same. Halima graced a birthday event held for me. So that is how I automatically started dating them ‘in certain bloggers’ eyes.’

Maybe they do this because you are yet to get married?

So, I should rush to get married for bloggers to stop attaching my name to women? (that is) very funny. God forbid I do because of such a reason. I will marry when i marry.

What is now your relationship with 9ice and Toni Payne

Next question please. People should let the matter rest.

Why have you not done any hit like in the past

I chilled out a bit from making music to concentrate on my record label and signed Mbryo. He is a singing sensation who produces and plays the guitar, drums and piano. I am working directly on his project to build a new brand that Nigeria will start feeling a lot really soon. I have also been manufacturing wears for my clothing line that will soon go on sale. (I have also been) promoting my ‘Agidi’ song featuring Wande Coal and it is getting heavy rotation on radio stations nationwide. I have already shot the video (Paul Gambit directed it) and it will soon be released.

Can you tell us how much you make from your clothing line

No, because I am about to go live with sales. But I can tell you I have spent millions producing snapbacks, varsity jackets, hoodys and T-shirts.

Do you intend joining politics in the future

No, I do not.

How was your first breakup experience like

I guess she shattered my heart. I wrote her a long letter and she replied on the back of the same paper, saying we can only be friends. I think I even still have the letter somewhere in my house.

would out take her back if she comes begging now

She is happily married now with kids (laughs). We were in secondary school then.

Describe your kind of woman

(She must have a) good sense of humour, respect, moral values and accepts what I do and vice versa.

What can't you do for money

Kill.

Would you accept N100million to give up your career for a houseboy job

I wouldn’t be a houseboy if I have N100million. I will hire someone else to do the job.

What turns you off

Lies, pretenders and body odour.

What have made you survive and remain relevant in a highly competitive industry

God, originality, creativity, guts and hard work.

Who is your favourite celebrity and why

2Face Idibia; he is a wonderfully blessed singer and his humility is amazing.

Do you support the idea of flaunting assets online

No, I do not. It’s not my nature.

Tell me one thing you can spend your last kobo to get?

If it is not a ticket to heaven, then there is nothing I will spend my last kobo to get. I have learnt not to attach too much sentimental value to material things.

What would you change in the entertainment industry if you were in government

I would create a proper body to protect the works of entertainers and make sure their royalties.

Who is the person you would want to meet, dead or alive? And what would you say to the person?

(I would love to meet) 2Pac because to me, he is the greatest rapper and Rihanna, because I am so crazy about her realness.

AFRICA'S FINEST SINGER "DAVIDO" PLANS COLLABORATION WITH AMERICA RAP STAR "DRAKE"


Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Africa and Nigerian biggest music sensation, David Adeleke aka Davido, recently revealed his musical plans, stating that he plans to have a music collaboration with American Rap star, Drake.

The Skelewu crooner, who has been on tour to some Africa countries , made it known that his reasons for delaying in releasing another album is because he wants to stand out in the Nigerian music industry, which some say is filled with mediocres.

'I have plans to do a collabo with Drake. I like his kind of music. It’s going to be the bomb! Something my fans would appreciate. We are already working on that,’ he said while answering to some questions from our reporter.

Speaking on his relationship status, the singer said, "I don't want to talk about relationship, so that I can keep being happy. Talking about my relationship status might make me sad at the end of the day and I don't want that. Like the media keep speculating whenever they see me with any girls, I don't really care. I just want to be happy."

Lately, Davido has been spotted with different girls in compromising positions but he keeps insisting there is no string attached to any of them.

"NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE THE FIRST FEMALE RECORD LABEL IN AFRICA", "SUSAN OPUTE-SOMOSU" SPEAKES.


Sussy and Her Artiste "Kuality"(Right)






 Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Music is a phenomenal soul to the mind, its a men-world and not so many females are seen controlling the business aspect of it when it comes to Label company and Music management. But the story has changed and tables have turned, as Nigeria-born, Namibia-based entrepreneur, Susan Opute-Somosu is the first female label owner in this era. She successfully floated her multi-media entertainment empire, Sustones Records in Windhoek, Namibia just a year ago and has watched it grow in leaps and bounds.

The mother of three and a  graduate of Mathematics and Statistics from the University of Lagos,spoke to us, as we caught up with her in Namibia where she and her families stay, on how she ventured into the entertainment industry, why she came to establish her label in Nigeria, and much more.

What prompted you to start a record label?

I actually started with beauty business in Namibia and one way or the other, I had people approaching me to manage them.

I didn’t know much about the music industry then as I had never done anything like that. So I did my research and also discovered that Nigerian music dominates Namibia. I thought about it and decided to try it out. This led me to start Sustone Records.

When was that?

We started just last year but our popularity and growth over there has beaten my imagination. This success led me to say we have gotten to a point where I think I should come back home and set up here.

But why did you have to start the label in Namibia before bringing it home?

I left Nigeria a long time ago. I didn’t leave because of entertainment or business, but when I got there, I realised that Nigerians were celebrated a lot, not only by Nigerians but Namibians. I also found out that anything that had to do with Nigeria, be it music, movies or anything whatsoever, as far as it is from Nigeria, it is highly celebrated over there.

How many artistes do you have on the label now?

Susan OputeI have a Nigerian artiste, because I was actually managing two artistes there. Now, I have a Nigerian on my label and we have decided that the artiste should not come in now until we make ourselves known as a label in Nigeria. I know that the market is more competitive here but I’m confident that with the unique flair we’ll bring in terms of infusing their style into ours and if we can successfully add that to our music here, I believe a lot of people will embrace it.

How successful is Sustones Records in Namibia?


So far, I think we are not doing badly over there but there is nothing as good as coming back home with what you’ve been able to do out there. We’re not coming in to compete with anybody. We are just coming in to see what impact we can make on the music scene here.

Have you considered having a producer who understands the market here and the kind of music that will do well and what is the name of your artiste?

The artiste’s name is Naijaboy. We have taken alot of things into consideration before we embarked on this project. We didn’t just go for any producer in Namibia. We went for the best, his name is Eleo. He is an award winning producer over there. Moreover, when Naijaboy comes back to Nigeria, he’ll be coming with our producer and we can work together with Nigerian producers but we need the Southern African producer because they understand the beat I told you about. I’m quite sure we’re on the right path.

How would you compare the entertainment industry in Namibia to that of Nigeria?


The entertainment industry in Namibia is still a bit far compared to that of Nigeria and that is why we cannot be content with being big over there. We have to come to Nigeria and establish ourselves.

Does Naijaboy have any single to his credit yet?

Yes, we have singles, Ile Ijo and we have also shot the video. Another single we have out now is Olote. We are also planning to collabo with big stars here but we have not made up our mind yet. So, I can’t mention anybody right now.

How has it been running a record label as a woman?

I don’t actually see a big deal in that. I know it is male dominated but I think gone are those days when you say some things are meant exclusively for men and other things for the women. I believe that it is the zeal that matters.

You’ve not had any difficulty in the business because you are a woman?

So far, I’ve not had any problem because I’m a woman. Maybe later it will come up but for now, there’s nothing like that. I’m comfortable doing this and I believe in myself. I believe it’s your passion that matters whether you’re male or female.

Do you plan to do songs yourself now or in the future?


That I can’t say right now. Nothing is impossible and I can never say never but for now, there is no such plan. What the future holds in that regard, I do not know. Just like it was never in my plan to go into the music industry, I believe that anything can happen.

Internationally acclaimed singer and rapper "Nicki Minaj" was seen at the uber cool Club 79 in Paris wearing a small turtle neck top, revealing the bottom part of her boobs as the ‘Pills N Potions’ star didn’t have any pair of bra covering her breasts.

The latest boob-revealing act, which everyone has become a popular topic on social media in the last few hours, would not have come as a surprise to those familiar with Nicki Minaj’s antics.

Nicki was seen dancing in the VIP section of the club, wearing a teeny turtle neck crop top, which looked too small for her ample cleavage. The fact that she wasn’t wearing a bra meant that those close by had good a glance of her under-boobs as her top kept rising while she danced.

POP ICON "TUFACE IDIBIA" IS NOT EXPECTING BABY NO.6, SUED ICON MAGAZINE FOR 100MILLION NAIRA.









Words:Adedosuv 'kenzy' Adekunle

When news broke of 2face’s alleged romance with Teniola (a Lagos banker), social media, critics and pundits went hard on the pop icon. The unconfirmed story published by Lagos based ‘Icon Weekly Magazine’ rode on the singer’s reputation as a womaniser and serial baby daddy. But 2face, who has since settled down with Annie Macauley simply dismissed the story as a rumour that wouldn’t ruin his marriage.

The Alleged Story ‘Icon Weekly can authoritatively inform you that as you read this, a young lady who works for one of the new generation banks, Teniola, is three months pregnant for this prince of African music! Did that hit you like Mike Tyson’s punch! Wait, more is coming. We gathered that Teniola who hails from Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State has been 2face’s account officer for a long time now. Did you say this sexual relationship could have been going on before his marriage? Teniola, a graduate of University of Lagos might just be another victim of the pressures marketers in the banking sector face to lure customers with everything they have, if you know what I mean.

The worst part of the story is that 2baba wants the pregnancy terminated! Our source revealed to us that he has been begging Teniola with a brand new car to get rid of the pregnancy and keep this scandal out of media radar. Has he stopped counting his children? I guess it is time to ask 2baba. Tuface Idibia has become notorious for making several children with different women who are not his wives! Tuface is the celebrity who has made Baby Mama culture the new norm in Nigeria.

When he decided to settle down with Annie, one of his Baby Mamas, many of his fans and critics were happy that finally he would become more responsible and sexually focus on his legal wife, Annie, but the latest report filtering into town concretely suggests that marriage cannot change this Benue born singer.’ 2face and Annie response Shortly after the news went viral, 2face in a series of tweets vehemently denied the allegation. He took to his twitter handle and wrote ‘The whole world knows I’m an open book. If anything happen, na me go first tell una’. He went on to write ‘Everybody make una see fake blog @africancelebspy with fake news trying to soil my reputation. God go judge una’. In another tweet, he sarcastically wrote ‘Ok make I give them news, I don give 8 virgins belle. How about that’. All through, 2face’s wife Annie never for once doubted her husband; she stood by him all through and even tweeted saying ‘people are trying to ruin their happiness’.

The 100m Naira lawsuit Not wanting his reputation to be tarnished, 2face sought to address the issue legally by slamming a hundred million naira lawsuit against ‘Icon Weekly magazine’. Sources told KREST that 2face sued the soft-sell magazine, ‘Icon Weekly’ for libel over the story they published claiming he impregnated a female banker in Lagos, just a few months after his elaborate marriage in Dubai.

Sources at the Ikeja High court revealed that Innocent ‘2face’ Idibia filed libel proceedings against the soft-sell magazine ‘Icon Weekly’, seeking the court to award him the sum of #100,000.000 (One Hundred Million Naira) as damages for the libellous publication posted on the magazine’s online and print platforms. Icon Weekly pleads with 2face, The weekly magazine has since tendered an apology to the star. According to Idibia’s label 960 Music group, ‘Icon Weekly has in a letter dated July 20, 2014, tendered an unreserved apology’. ‘Please note that the 960 Music Group offers Funding, Marketing, Promotions, Distribution and Label Management Services. Protecting our clients’ Intellectual Property and reputation are paramount as brand guardians.

The 960 Music Group will not tolerate Slander, Libel or any Intellectual Property infringements against our brands, artistes and/or Music. 2face looks forward to being allowed to focus on the business of making the music you have come to love him for, and thanks to his fans for their continued support’....





SUPERSTARS "DAVIDO AND WIZKID" STILL AT LOGGHEADS.








Words: Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle

Barely 24hours after Davido‘s attempt to clear the air on any issue between himself and Wizkid, the feud between them seems to be unending as Wizkid threw all caution to the wind in his latest tweet today where he wrote ‘Dumb Niggas catch feelings! We just tryna make it over here! Nobody got time for that! ATL turn up!’ .

Wizkid clearly didn’t mention names in the tweet, but going by what’s transpired between both parties in the last 4 weeks, it’s clearly another shot at Davido. Recall that Davido, in an interview yesterday with Sahara TV attempted cleared the air on his grouse with Wizkid saying ‘it’s not beef at all, but I’m the type of person if I feel something you do me is bad, I’ll speak up, you don’t hit your brother down. ‘This is the first time I’m saying this, but the only reason I was upset was because of the NY (New York) concert. I was even going to tweet that ‘make sure everybody turns up for my brother Wizkid’s concert’, and he threw a shade like that. ‘I’m not going to take that, that’s why I said what I said. But its all cool, at the end of the day, we got to keep it on the music. Shout out to him. I’m still a big fan. It was never nothing but don’t throw a shade at me, especially when we were on the flight earlier. By the way, check the numbers on my last concert. Let’s leave it like that’.

This is surely not the last we would hear from these two superstars....
