This right here is a dope Jam, Special Shout out to the President and co-owner of Just right music, Big Mike. I have been listening to this alone greedily but today I decided to share. With the right marketing and promotions, this song right here will be played worldwide in every radio station and every gig.
From the camp of Just right music, I present this very amazing work featuring Teresa Marie, Cristian Cartier and Solo D.
Teresa Marie, a 16-year-old, pop artist from New Hampshire, was born a star. Teresa started singing at the age of 5 and began performing in local coffee shops shortly after. In 2017, Teresa made the choice to turn her passion into a career by writing and recording over 23 songs.
Teresa Marie’s recent release featuring Cristian Cartier and Solo D is just breathtaking. The banging beat is produced by Wizz Dakota.
Mohammed Usman Adamu with the stage name Magnito is a super dope Nigerian singer born on September 15.Magnito who hails from idoma tribe of Benue state, was born and raised in Abuja where he had both his primary and secondary education. He also obtained a degree in business management from the university of Jos.
His new video which features Port Harcourt’s first son Duncan Mighty is an Ode to the Nigerian superstar Actress Genevieve who recently made a kill with the release of her movie Lion heart on Netflix . According to reports, Geneieve made a ton of money from the contract with Netflix. Genevieve is viewed by Nigerians as the Ultimate woman , She symbolises the Independent and hard working Nigerian woman. Her illustrious career is filled with accolades , achievements, and awards and she is admired by every Nigerian.
One thing i must add is that I really love Magnito’s Hausa Rap . It is safe to say Yoruba and Igbo artiste have really established themselves in the Nigerian industry, now we are looking to have many rappers who flow fluently in Hausa and other various languages, break out also and become as big.
In my opinion, He is pretty much saying he needs an independent woman.
Tuesday morning, i don’t feel like getting out of bed, I just want to lay in bed all day scrolling through posts on social media. I picked up my phone and turned on my instagram app. After about 10 mins of scrolling and swipping, i landed on LARIZZLE’s page and decided to click on the link to his new video . When i was done watching the video i was ready to go . The truth is, the video gave me a reason to get up and grind. It is that motivational .
I totally agree with his Philosophy , You gotta hustle like you just got out of jail . Nobody makes it to his goal without putting in a considerable amount of effort. At any point in life you have to grind like you got nothing . The more successful you are the more grind you are required to put in. Watch the video below and let me know what you think .
Belect tagged me to a post some days back. The post read “ My boy @rikartsenz1 is a sure ‘hot head’ this track here is super nice. Just one listen and u will get me.”
I said oya nah , i am going to listen at my free time . You already know that i am always looking for new amazing talents .
Today i hit the link to his soundcloud and the first song i listened to is Hot Head .
My first reaction was Damn! This dude’s delivery is special. His attitude is up there with the greats and his vibe is lively . Very interesting, so i paid a little more attention to his lyrics and the message he was passing across. I am like Damn! dude has got shit to say.
I am a real hiphop head and i fucks with rappers who can tell me things i learn about their experiences and immediate enviroment. Real talk is priceless , and a rapper must know how to tell his side of the story. Having said this , the song that finished work for me is Cry. Deep reality-based music .
Cry questions the fairness of life in general. Is life reallyfair?? why do some people’s cross seem heavier than others? Why do people find themselves in trouble or situations they know nothing about while others seem to get good results they do not seem to deserve? It is really a deep song and some of the questions asked are the same questions i ask myself on a daily. He also pays tribute to some notable people who have lost their lives. I do not want to say too much , Y’all should give this young intelligent rapper from Nigeria a Listen. Thank me later like i Thanked B-Elect.
She has a very beautiful voice. One of the most beautiful voices I have heard .The moment hit the play button on this, I was captivated.
Joy Williams is a singer-songwriter from Santa Cruz, CA who now lovingly calls Nashville, TN home.
Formerly of four-time Grammy Award-winning Folk, Country and Americana duo The Civil Wars, Joy recently recorded her forthcoming solo album, Front Porch, produced by Kenneth Pattengale of The Milk Carton Kids.
Following the recent birth of her second child, Joy is steadily performing new music from Front Porch live in advance of the album’s release on May 3rd.
Joy recently released visuals to the title track, “Front Porch”, and it is a masterpiece. It refers to a point in time in America’s history when it was not cool for a black man to be seen with a white woman vice versa. The very emotional love video narrates the story of how two individuals who love themselves missed out of having a life together just because they were of different color and could not publicly express their love for each other due to the stigma. Racism and tribalism prevents a lot of love stories from blossoming .. Shout out to couples who went through this and made it to the finish line together.
No top 20 list can reflect everyone’s opinion, but after careful consideration, I came up with a list of my own. The list does not imply that one song is better than another; it only highlights the significance of one song over the others. By significance, I mean the overall impact of the single on the Nigerian music industry. Some songs laid the foundation for the success of other records or acts.
20. Da grin – PonPon
Da Grin broke the monopoly of Afrobeat and highlife to serve a kind of hip hop never seen in the country before. Although he wasn’t the first known person to rap in Yoruba, his music was heavily influenced by street/thug life, which made him very unique. He was respected among his colleagues and was touted as the King of the Streets.
19. D’Banj feat. Snoop Dogg – Mr Endowed Remix
D’banj’s song featuring Snoop Dogg paved the way for Nigerian artistes to collaborate with their USA counterparts. The single also laid the foundation for D’banj’s collaboration with Kanye West.
18.Sound Sultan – Mathematics
Sound Sultan’s single Mathematics is a major part of every Nigerian’s growing up. He took people’s minds off love songs and party songs to address some of Nigeria’s socio-political issues. Sound Sultan creatively used the mathematical acronym BODMAS to proffer solutions to the country’s problems.
17. Baba Fryo – Denge Pose
Baba Fryo’s Denge Pose was an instant hit when he released it. It was part of the galala movement of the late ’90s, which started in Ajegunle, Lagos.
16. P. Square – Senorita
P-Square set the standard for dance videos in Nigeria. The twin brothers, Peter and Paul, entered the music scene with the single Senorita and quickly gained people’s love and attention.
15. Plantashun Boiz – Somebody say
This is arguably the first successful boy group from Nigeria. The group comprises 2Face Idibia, Faze, and Blackface. The group went on to achieve a lot of success together but eventually broke up along the line; each member is now chasing a solo career.
14. Styl-Plus – Olufunmi
Styl-Plus is a Nigerian R&B group that rocked the country in the early 2000s. The single Olufunmi is one of the biggest singles to come out of Africa.
13. 9ice-Gongo Aso
Gongo Aso was the biggest single in Nigeria between 2008–2009. It took 9ice to legendary status, with a lot of people expecting him to bring home a Grammy.
12 . Lagbaja – Konko Below
No Nigerian dance floor was spared when Lagbaja dropped the single Konko Below. The vibe of the song was infectious, and to this day, you will still find it at major events.
11. Faze – Originality
After Plantashun Boiz broke up, each member set out to prove they could function alone. Faze had a good run, releasing several hits that placed him among the greatest musicians ever to come out of Nigeria. In many quarters, Originality was his biggest hit. The single pays tribute to Nigerian music legends before him.
10. Eedris Abdulkareem -Wackawikee MCs
This is one of the most relevant records to come out of Nigeria, especially considering the fact that it set off a trend of major events that would change the face of rap music and the music business in general in Nigeria. Eedris called out members of Plantashun Boiz, and it received massive airplay and created a lot of buzz.
9. Modenine – Cry
This is the song that made Nigerians believe that made-in-Nigeria boom-bap rap music could gain international acceptance and recognition. Aside from selling several copies, Cry won a lot of international awards and endorsements for Modenine. His storytelling abilities were in full swing; he kept it real and emotional. I was deeply touched by the lyrics of this song. It remains one of the greatest hip hop records from Nigeria.
8. Tribesmen – Plenty Nonsense
This is the first and only official Trybesmen video ever released. Due to the unprecedented success gained by this single, Eldee developed into one of the biggest music businessmen in the country and Africa at large. Plenty Nonsense was the biggest single in Nigeria.
7. Mr.Incredible – Safe
When this record dropped, the entire country was shook. “Who in the world is M.I, and where did he come from?” was the question on everyone’s lips. Chocolate City had unleashed a beast. He sounded far ahead of every competitor. M.I heralded a new era of rap music in Nigeria; he was very successful commercially, and it changed the perception that rappers could not be commercially successful.
6. Banky W. – Ebute Metta
Although this wasn’t an original composition, it still rocked the airwaves in Nigeria and received massive airplay from radio OAPs and DJs. After the success of this single, Banky W. would later grow to become Chairman at EME Music, which is responsible for nurturing one of Africa’s biggest talents at the moment, Ayo Balogun (Wizkid).
5.Daddy Showkey – Somebody Call My Name
This became the national anthem in Nigeria. Everyone was dancing to this track and doing the galala dance step. Daddy Showkey is another artiste in the Ajegunle galala movement who became a national star. He came from the ghettos in Lagos and became a household name in Nigeria. Daddy Showkey brought the ghetto to national TV. Up till today, his shows are packed, and his performances are still lit. He is regarded as a legend by music lovers.
4. Wizkid – Holla at your boy
He is the youngest on the list but arguably has the most hits and has sold the most records. Wizkid needs no introduction; he is the most sought-after artiste in Africa. When his first single, Holla at Your Boy, dropped under E.M.E Records, we all knew a star had been born.
3.Tony tetuila – omode meta n sere
Tony Tetuila was kicked out of his group, The Remedies, because he had requested to be considered a singer instead of a dancer. The group refused his request, so he decided to go solo. He released a single titled Omode Meta featuring Tuface Idibia, Blackface, and Ruff, Rugged & Raw. The highly controversial single is responsible for bringing Tuface and Tony Tetuila into the limelight.
2.Ruggedman ft Nomoreloss – Ehen
Ehen is one of the most controversial songs of our time. It was definitely a turning point for hip hop in Nigeria, something like Jay-Z’s Death of Autotune. We could divide the rap timeline into “Before Ehen” and “After Ehen.” Ruggedman was warring with the powers that be in the music industry. He lyrically attacked Kennis Music acts like Eedris Abdulkareem and Rasqie, and also called out Maintain and Big Bamo. He made it clear he was in this to take the crown. Ehen was cold and reformed the entire music business, including giving power to independent artists.
RIP Nomoreloss.
1. 2Face – African Queen
Without a doubt in my mind, African Queen by Tuface is the most relevant record in recent times. It is the first Nigerian song to win major awards in Europe and America and was featured on the soundtrack of several Hollywood movies. African Queen helped shed light on the work Nigerian acts were doing and opened the doors for more international collaborations.
The vibe coming from Lagos is endless. Afrobeat is at an all-time high and I do not see this high coming to an end any time soon. Matter of fact Afrobeat is on course to becoming the worlds most played genre in the future.
Latoria Bassey is making her debut on the blog with this melodious Afrobeat number titled Maka Why. Maka Why is the Igbo boy’s way of saying but why. I am so in love with the video
Two of the best emerging Talents from Lagos Nigeria. The vibe is above spectacular.
A rare angle of music, A fusion of Afropop and dancehall music. There’s never a smoother version of GBESE out now. This is one of the collaborations of the hottest youngsters right now in the game as DJ VOYST(@dj_voyst) teams up with JOEBOY (@joeboyofficial) and OXLADE(@oxladeofficial) to produce a masterpiece titled GBESE. GBESE was cooked with a mixture of soft rhythm and pure vocals.
A classical vibe for also every mood. The visual content displays an atmosphere of dance, party, lights, and originality. Telling the GBESE story as Dj Voyst headlines the party.
This is one of the baddest tunes that has dropped in March. Big shout out to empawa for pushing out videos to some of the most forsaken talents on the African continent . It is really making life easier for those of us that have dedicated time to ensure that these talents are spotted, scouted and exploited. It has empowered a lot of young entrepreneurs and that is a win for Mr. Eazi.
This Joeboy’s song was sent to me by a woman that means a lot to me . Trust me if women love your song, you don blow o and if this particular African baby endorses your song , it means you have a diamond of a song. Looks like this Jam is on every woman’s playlist at this point o. Don’t dull just hit the play button.
This is probably the most powerful song you will listen to all month . Rebel Rae as her name indicates has lashed out on the system again via her new song titled We the people featuring Deante Hitchcock. It is not a secret that the system of Government in the United states of America is broken and has been designed to favor a greedy majority . Historical evidence proves that the system has been harsh on the Negro . From the slavery era to post slavery, the African American community has been subjected to racial abuse ,unequal opportunity , and police brutality . The video shows images of the black struggle from the slavery to date .
Rebel Rea draws inspiration from the songs of the spirituals during the slavery era. Her music has elements of the origninal music made by the slaves . As Christianity took hold of the slave population during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, spirituals, a type of religious song served as a way to express the people’s new faith, as well as its sorrows and hopes. Some served as coded messages of secret meetings, of protest, or even of an intent to escape. An estimated 645,000 Africans were imported into the United States between 1650 and 1808 as slave labor. They came primarily from sub-Saharan Africa’s northwestern and middle-western coastal regions and worked under harsh conditions predominantly in the cash crop economy of the rural South. A lot of Nigerians were taken.
I encourage videos like this because it makes newly borns aware of their history and conscious of the political and econimic climate. Everyone needs to know who you are to understand your journey so far and to undertsand your purpose and plan. Shout out to Deante’ Hitchcock for providing such dope and well thought of verses on the Joint.
We all fighting against the eyes and a broken system / Twisted to favor of those who making the most of riches/ The wealthy the powerful those who sit in that one percentage / No love for the darker skin it don’t matter lil boy or girl / and them niccars promised us heaven to tske over the world __ Deante Hitchcock
