Popular RnB sensation and dancing superstar @amazingdipp in an interview with enigma naijas @sirbentleykun had a little something to say on the state of the nigerian music industry.
Find out exactly what....

What's your favorite song of all time?why?
I don't have a favorite song, there a tons of songs in different genres I like.
What do you or would you hear in a song that would make you go "oh! That's a great song"?
once again its difficult to answer because I like not only great lyrics but a good melody. and that differs with each genre.
--> ok then, what are your criteria, if you have any for working with obscure(upcoming) acts?
Be talented, be sure of yourself! That's all!
--> a lot of up coming acts want the opportunity to work with you and artistes of your calibre... What do you say to them?
Be sure of yourself!
You had a silent period before your latest track 'balance for me', what happened?
Nothing, I just took a break.

We caught up with the #SOFA crooner and BMG superstar @vitotohbadt as he prepares to release a brand new smashing single on the 24th of this month. Characteristic of most superstars in the Nigerian industry today, they all have to teach us a new word...
Examples include; Lamba, Zanga, Okpekete, Limpopopo and a host of others... Some of them really have no meanings, but now let's find out the meaning of the word #Ogbu
Hello Vito, so good to have you here.
VITO: yes o..happy to be here too
Just for reference sake, Could you tell us about your last single and video?
VITO: yea that's SOFA and I had W4 on that track with me..well the song gained massive airplay you know..the love was crazy..and when we dropped the Video the response was MAD I must say...Great job from my fans and ma TEAM..BMG.

Cool! So How has the industry treated you since then?
VITO: uhhmm..After I dropped SOFA I was off for a while...had a project I was working on ''Personal stuffs''..did a Tribute to Goldie and Remixed Chris brown's Don't judge me which people really appreciated...got over 150,000 downloads...later I got called up for the BIG FRIDAY SHOW..the first episode for 2013...got shows in Lagos,Enugu,owerri and Abuja....so now I'm back and here to stay..Good music all the way

Crazy african themes in illustrative form...

CEO SoughtOut Studios GRA, Ikeja, the title of his soon to be released album is "Door2DoorS" an avalanche of contemporary soul music. Don't worry, its not boring at all, on the contrary this brova sings with a guitar better than most, with a very unique style fusion.

I first meet him at a live concert designed for the best of up and comers 'Normoreloss Live' holds every saturday at Rodisso, Ikeja. He performed in front of an unforgiving crowd and amazingly, won them over... Trust me, you need to have been there. There's no child's play about Normoreloss live the crowd will chew you up and spit out your bones, if you ever doubt your ability these guys will clear your doubts... Anyways Ola Soetan was able to win them over and woo some of the ladies in the crowd including Nigerian Music legend lady Umuke...

If you haven't already heard of him you just need to crawl out of the cave you've been living in the past few months.

Brodock Music groups fast rising star VITO is one of those young men you want to give your full attention.. FULLY!

Its very simple, if your complaining about a lack of originality and lyrical depth of popular music today, then you must be prepared and willing to listen to something new. I can safely say, that you could drown in this young mans lyrical depth.

There are a lot of famous people out there who have a reputation for being tough, but the following list is reserved for only those who are not only tough, they are lethal. They don’t need a gun or a knife or a sword or whatever OJ had in the trunk of his car on a certain fateful night because they themselves are a lethal weapon. You might be surprised by some of the names on this list but that’s only because they don’t need to advertise the fact that they are bad asses. They are like radiation or a silent fart –- deadly, and you’ll never see them coming. So, if you ever see any of these nine famous people in a dark alley, run, because if they get their hands on you, it’s all over. Unfortunately, Jet li is not one of them... not on this list anyway.

Finally Jesse Jagz has responded to controversies trailing his sudden ‘exit’ from power label Chocolate City.

In an interview with HipTv, he revealed that he would rather hoist a flag he owns. ‘At this stage of my life I would just rather do something for myself’.

He also disclosed he still has a good working relationship with Choc City. ‘I still have a good working relationship with the company, of course M.I, Ice Prince, Brymo are my brothers, so it’s not a big deal’.

And as to why he blindsided M.I on his departure, Jesse explained; ‘I just discussed it with my team. It’s a personal decision outside all sentiments and opinions, so nobody was really involved’.

He also indicated he will not be signing any artistes to his newly created JagzNation music label for now…

It was a night of fun, Excitement and live music this past Saturday as Rodisso bar hosted Nomorelos live! the event which is targeted at giving young musicians a platform to showcase their talent saw a host of celebrity guests... Co hosted by Normorelos and Omobaba (the comedian) guests danced and sang along to their favorite songs performed live by a number of talented singers..

A few faces at the Hennessy Bar crawl at Rodisso Bar and Restaurant, Ikeja on Saturday

News reaching us is that singing duo SKUKI are set to spend "millions" on their anticipated condom brand "Peeshaun Condoms".

entering the final stages of registration, peeshaun condoms seems to have garnered the interests of UNICEF as a partnership between the two brands is in the pipeline.. PEESHAUN!!!

I didn't know a thing like this could even happen well...

You might be sitting atop a pile of cash that would take far too many lifetimes to spend, and your company’s stock, while battered for a bit, is still the envy of many other companies out there, but regardless of the apparent power that you seemingly wield in the tech world, you will still not gain an inch from Brazil’s copyright regulator. Yes sir, I am referring to Apple Inc. being stripped of the right to use their iPhone trademark in Brazil, which so happens to be Latin America’s largest market, as the trademark was granted instead to a local company which registered it first.

Never heard of Gradiente Eletronica SA before? Well, this Brazilian consumer electronics maker is sure to get a whole lot more famous from now on, as they registered the “iphone” name all the way back in the year 2000, a good seven years before Apple actually rolled out their first iPhone. The Brazilian Institute of Intellectual Property will make an official announcement of its decision a day before Valentine’s Day. Needless to say, we are not ruling out the possibility of Apple challenging the ruling in the Brazilian court.

Jimmy jatt comments about 17voices and his live stage performance. "What kind of human being is this?"

The answer would be; "he a crazy Mother****a" but I have got to hand it to him that song 17 voices should be entered into the Guinness Book of world records... Why? Because its tight! That's why!

We are always in the habit of bringing to your attention people to look out for and here is one of them:
The artist J Royalty is a director a producer and an Artiste under Sunday Arehs List Ent. This young man is a bundle of talent, one you need to watch out for.

I'm telling you! Do a song like this and you will get signed! Lol!

This is definitely something different, a lyrical holiday if you like such a relief. The funniest thing ever done I think in naija history. A fussion of Asa, Rick ross, terry gee,snoop dogg,lilwayne,brymo on one song lolzzzz. Click d link to Download and laffff. Its really good!

Being a Blackberry user has its perks sometimes but other times can be quite annoying especially when you have a lot of contacts...

Broadcast messages can be quite a pain especially on public holidays, urgh! And new months. I mean I woke up one morning a few days ago to find 100 messages on my phone all of them bc's telling me today is 1st of Feb... I mean, that's why the calendar on ma phone is there, yours is obviously working so gimme a break! *sigh*

Other times broadcasts may be timely, informative and well, funny...

Here's some I think you'd enjoy, pls enjoy;

One of my all time fashionable men in sports if not my all time favourite has got to be David Beckham... He just seems to be able to put together simple and yet sophisticated looks all the time... Crowning it with a smile, he makes it all seem so easy.

Here David Beckham attends the Victoria Beckham Spring 2013 presentation during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at New York Public Library on September 9, 2012 in New York City.

The journey hasn't been bad for the Mavins after D'banj as the members all dropped one or two songs that did well 'in a class of their own' in 2012.
2013 started filled with promises, and now twitter has given the Mavins their first gift of the year, and the Mavin boss Don Jazzy shared the news via Instagram with the message, "So twitter paid the mavins a visit. And the blue tick was in the goody bag. Osheee. @wandecoal @dprincemavin @iamdrsid @tiwasavage #MAVINS #FRENZY #2013 #PoP #imgoingtobed love always."

I can't find the blue tick on their pages yet from old computer, but if the boss says they are, then they are.

Verified Mavins!

Pop singer Lady Gaga recently purchased 55 items once belonging to Michael Jackson at an auction in Beverly Hills, Calif. But is the "Born This Way" singer actually eyeing a much bigger Jacko prize? Rumors published by the Sun, NME and the Huffington Post, say Gaga plans to buy Jackson's 3,000-acre Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara County, Calif. and return it to its former glory.

Gaga has reportedly become good friends with Jackson's sister Latoya, and the reason she wants to purchase Neverland is supposedly so it can be preserved for Jackson's three children. "His kids are all desperate to hold on to their childhood home so they can decide what they want to do with it properly when they've grown up," the Sun quotes an anonymous source as saying.

Jackson bought the sprawling ranch in 1988 and named it after Neverland from the story of Peter Pan -- a magical land where boys never grow up. He built a railroad track, a petting zoo and carnival rides. But later, as he became embroiled in financial troubles, the ranch fell into disrepair and was eventually sold to investment group Sycamore Valley Ranch Company, though Jackson's three children and mother Katherine still hold a share of it. If Gaga were to purchase the ranch she would likely have to shell out tens of millions of dollars to both purchase and renovate the dilapidated estate.
