DJ Smart is out again with another banger. This mix is thoughtfully put together to create butterflies in your stomach. All you need to do is plug a headphone and the hit play button. This one is one to go on a road trip with and you will not know how you got to your destination. Volume 1. was a hit and volume 2. sounds even fresher.

DJ Smart describes himself as an Afrobeats Dj from Indianapolis USA, but one thing I could deduce from listening to his mix is that he has great ears for good music. His new release “Smart’s Mix Vol 2” is filled with premium Afrobeats and Alté vibes from several African countries. I really enjoyed the quality and content of the mix and the transitions are so seamless and smooth. It is well put together.

The music business is a very lucrative business. Revenues can stack up quickly and profit can run into millions of dollars, but it is also a pretty unpredictable business and many artists are unable to reach their full potential mainly due to the fact that they do not have the capital to cover the expenses associated with running a healthy music business. This is the reason companies such as Pinaza records take the initiative to set up structures that can ensure the success of talented youths in Nigeria.

Pinaza Records is owned by Architect, businessman, Philanthropist, and renowned human rights activist Chief Piniki Azaiye. The company launched in 2019 with the aim of taking artists in the Niger-delta to the next level. They have been involved in numerous entertainment-related projects in the Niger-delta already including The Homecoming of Elvis Poko which was hosted in conjunction with Africa Magic, The Pinaza unveiling which featured Harrysong, Niger-delta Ijaw day and award night in conjunction with alterplate records and Wafftv, and more recently, the Wizkid live in Warri concert that failed to hold due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus.

So far, the label has 4 artists on its roster who have already put out great singles in the market. They are Austin Okerenkoko aka Shanky Grey,  Marvel Genekama popularly known as Vhino Kama, Gideon Ebipade known as Darlingrind, and Lizberg whose real names are Lisbon Awiki. Listen to the first set of songs put out by the newly signed Pinaza record artists below.

2020 has been a really difficult year for creatives. Therefore, we should throw our support behind artists like vibetone who are putting out good music at this time.

New Jersey based Afro-beat brand vibetone is out with a new song titled “Oskambo”. Vibetone is riding on the wave created by his previous singles as he follows up with a very catchy vibe. Oskambo is a blend of Afro-beat and high-life elements fused together by DXL his usual collaborator.
