This is such a positive song that i listen to it every morning i wake up . It provides a positive out look on life and raises your energy levels. In a world full of negative energy , you need to find songs that are therapeutic . Jae The Lyoness is definitely one of my best discoveries for the year already , her lyrics is purposeful and her voice on the mic is so soothing . Listen to her medicinal song titled “ VIBES ”
Enjoy the good vibes ..
I am a man on a mission. My mission is to open the market up and shine the light on Artiste who have been doing everything right musically . My intent is to expose as many talents as possible to you , the listener . Many talents do not make it to the masses because of Payola . Radio stations and radio presenters only play the songs of those who pay them. Hence, you only hear music from a privileged few who are mostly wack.
Today let me shed the light on Maxo Kream real names Emekwanem Ogugua Biosah Jr. , an American born Nigerian rapper. He was born in 1990 to a Nigerian father and an African American mother.
His song “ ROACHES ” provides a vivid description about his life growing up . All the struggles he went through to be where he is at . It is very troubled childhood i must say and there are several Nigerian parents passing through the same issues in the USA today . It is very difficult for African parents to groom kids in America . Often times , the kids end up on the wrong side of the law . But on the postitive side , Maxo Kream is a very dope rapper and with all the stories he has to tell , he will sure keep his listeners glued. I love the fact that he sampled his pops and mums voice at the end.
It is valentine season, love is in the air and love songs are gradually climbing the chats on peoples individual play list . Better is the second single off of the long awaited DREAM BIG album by Dez Tha Reason . Better features Model Jay Mahlae, Dancer Victoria Fox from The Dance Movement and Mike Budrow.
His vocals are the closest you can get to Rick Ross . When i first heard the song i was expecting to see the Maybach music Group C.E.O on the credits . This is a dope song for the grown , classy and sexy . BETTER is available on all streaming platforms
Listen below
If you putting together songs to play on Valentines day then look no further; NOMHA ‘s single “ My ” is more than adequate .

Check it out for yourself .
NOMHA is an African American artiste , writer , model , and actor . I would encourage y’all to look him up and book him this valentine season. it is going to be worth your $$$$$$
Good morning Africa / America ,
I am proud to present to you one of the best singers to ever be featured on my blog , Oh my Lord ! i wish i had experienced his music long before now .
Jamesse’, raised in SC but is now a native to Louisville KY, is a R&B/Pop artist with a pure sound that stands out among his peers in the industry.
Although relatively new to the scene, Jamesse has a presence that has been noticed by industry heads. Jamesse’s has performed on world-renowned stages such as the Apollo Theater in New York and has worked in the music media realm with artists such as Pharrellwilliams, Jazmine Sullivan, John Legend, Smokey Robinson, and much more.
Jamesse released an E.P in 2018 titled “ Spectrum ” . I would definitely recommend it to R&B lovers .
Hey Jamesse , If you continue making music like this , you are going to be unstoppable .
Squalle is the C.E.O of Black Liaison ATL, a clique of dope individuals. According to the description on his page , “ A Dope Soul is one who chases their dreams in an unapologetic form! Daring to be different; not following the trends of the culture but creating their own. A Dope Soul is a person who is free from dwelling on others opinions! Free to be whoever, however, whenever ”.
Squalle is definitely different . His music comes from deep inside just like the good all days when rappers had a pen, a rhyme book , and a bunch of life lessons to share . On this video, It feels like Squalle was telling a story of Nigeria from the narrative of Eddie Murphy’s movie – Coming to America , because his Instagram post about the song made reference to Nigeria. It leaves me wondering if the rapper has ties to Nigeria. Anyways , Coolin is a feel good hip hop song , the type that the older folks will definitely vibe to. Younger folks seem to be obsessed with mumble rap
Watch coolin below . The video was directed by Yinde ..
Contrary to popular opinions and beliefs, Nigeria’s main export or mineral resource is Talents not Crude oil . The only issue is, while crude oil is being exploited on a massive scale , the talent industry is left untapped . There is little or no government involvement or foreign investment, talents are left to go all the way by themselves.
The goal of this blog is to expose talents found all over the world to foreign investors and businesses .
Tiqeu is one of the talented acts from the untapped talent rig in Nigeria. His new single “ Mo ni ” just found it’s way to my play-list. His collaborator Minz disappeared on my radar for a minute, his single “ Talk ” released in 2016 was a monster single and i have been wondering where he went. Mo ni is a feel good afrobeat tune that has HIT stamped all over it . Kudos to the director Gabriella Kingsley , she really did a fantastic job on the video
They say “ the young shall grow ” and that is exactly was Troi has done . I knew Troi while she was growing up , i worked with her mum Famika on different projects . Little did i know that Famika’s daughter will grow up to take after her mum . Troi’s mum ( Famika ) is an amazing vocalist.
Fast forward 2019 , Troi a native of Detroit has blossomed into a potential star. Troi has developed from a runway model to a full fledged entertainment brand . This is one artiste i would definitely be signing if i had a record label . She is pretty , vicious , sexy and extremely talented; a combination that only a few possess .
Check out Troi’s new video sitting pretty below ..
Chocolate City in collaboration with 100 Crowns, Martell and Continued Ent. surprised us with an Official MARTELL CYPHER . People are still digesting the content of the cypher but many have already expressed an opinion on whether they think the cypher was dope or not. In my opinion, i think the cypher lived up to all expectations , all the featured rappers came out smoking . When you have a Legend like M.I , a veteran like Aq and Loose , and a rapidly growing brand like Blaqbonez , you really do not expect anything less.
For me , regardless of whether the rappers were dope or not i saw this from a business perspective and i think people missed the point. The point is M.I and Choc city are fighting for rappers to get paid for the features they do with brands . They are challenging other brands to ensure that whenever rappers are used for commercials , they should ensure they have a budget to cater for the rappers needs . It’s more like a campaign rather than an actual cypher or battle rap. I see it as a healthy competition between MARTELL and the other brands who supposedly do not pay acts for what they do for them . I really commend M.I and his team for their forward thinking.
I have always championed the cause that acts who get featured in projects should get royalties or compensation regardless of how small their contributions are . So long as you find a persons talent sufficient enough to be exploited , you need to pay for their services . Gone are the days where we would leverage on the fact that you are providing a platform as an excuse to cheat others. People have real needs and situations they are facing and their work of art need to pay their bills . Read more
Unfortunately , the same rappers who Choc city are opening up the market for are the same rappers that have come out to criticize the cypher for not being dope enough or off-the-top. In my Opinion , that is completely missing the point .
Fuck the industry , I pay Payola with suitcases – AQ
It is only a matter of time before the world hears of Kolaboy . Kolaboy, real names Nwodo Chinonso is following in the footsteps of the likes of Phyno , Illbliss , and Zoro. The Igbo rapper has definitely stepped up his game and is giving his predecessors a run for their money.
Kolaboy hails from Enugu state in Nigeria and that explains why his prefers to rap in Igbo Language . Igbo’s occupy the Eastern part of Nigeria and are some of the hardest working and most successful tribes in Africa . People insinuate that they are too desperate for money but that is a topic for another day. Enugu is a state in Eastern Nigeria home to the likes of Flavor , Runtown , illbliss , Phyno just to mention a few , and it has long been the scouting ground for musical talents from the East . Just like Lagos , it is safe to say the Enugu is the capital of Igbo music .
Somedays ago Kolaboy released his new single titled “ Wire ” starring some of Instagram’s most notable Nigerian comedians i.e Broda Shaggi , MC Lively , Kreb , Oluwadolarz , Comedian Boma , Zfancy , Sydney Talker , Datvideoboyy , Xtacy , Mama Chinedu, Bishop Kalliper . Watch below .
The world should get ready cos my food don dey don – Kolaboy
