E-Gnyte ft J. Martins – This Kind Party

Posted on March 7th, 2010 by Ovie O

Here’s a fresh debut single from Port-Harcourt Based artiste, E-Gnyte. E-Gnyte, who is originally from Owerri, Imo State, is presently signed to Ekobeats; same label as another PH-based crooner, Keeno.

To the song itself, I’m loving every bit of it! It has that Soca/Calypso/Island feel to it… and then the Igbo lines merged with French (iThink) makes it sound even more international. This is definitely one for all generations: young and old. If it doesn’t become a hit, I’ll be surprised. Listen and enjoy!

Video Premiere: J. Martins – Iva

Posted on March 4th, 2010 by Ovie O

Uncle Jay Martins has put out another video for a previously-posted single off his “Elevated” album titled “Iva”; a high-life song, which also samples a couple of old-school hits including the Ifeoma instrumentals.

There’s something about Jay Martins that just sets him apart from most of the other modern Nigerian artistes. He has that vintage presence and veteranish charisma. No gra-gra at all! Not to mention the “sweetness” of all his songs. A cool and jandish video, in my opinion. What’s yours?

Director: GINI (Same guy who did “Pon Pon Pon”).

Video: Bracket ft J. Martins – Ada Owerri

Posted on November 4th, 2009 by Ovie O

Here’s the video for a previously posted item.

Goodness me! If Owerri women were really this pretty, I’d relocate to Imo State sharply sharply. Kinda reminds me of the lovely ladies in Solid Star’s One In A Million video with 2baba. Clarence surely knows where to find beautiful video models.

On another note, Bracket is here to stay!
