VIDEO Premiere: 2Shotz – I Am William

Posted on September 1st, 2010 by Ovie O

A few months ago, we posted a brand new single “I Am William” from 2Shotz, one of the veterans in the Naija hiphop game. We also told y’all that his 5th (and possibly final) album was in the works. The final product is now set for release later this month, and hopefully, it will be made available for purchase right here at the notjustOk Shop. Guest appearances include M.I, Shank, Jesse Jagz, Ice Prince, YQ, Enze, Lynxx, Olstar, Waje. Production credits include some of the finest in the industry, Cobhams, Dr Frabz, Jesse Jagz, eLDee, Terry G, J-Smith, Spanky and IKON!

“I Am William” was directed by the highly respected DJ Tee, produced by M.I (hook also done by him), and shot in Victoria Island, Lagos. All in all, this will go down as a “Grade A” video by all standards. Enjoy!

Exclusive: YQ – EfiMile (Remix) ft. Naeto C, M.I, Banky W, eLDee, Ice Prince

Posted on August 27th, 2010 by Mola OG

The original version of this song is what brought YQ and even the late DaGrin to the lime light. Their innovative collaboration kept this song banging in people’s CDs for a while. If you watched the video for ‘Efimile‘, you saw the hunger in the young YQ during his performance and his eager anticipation to blow. Now, he has reached a respectable status in the music industry and is getting ready to drop his much anticipated ‘I AM YQ’ album under 2Koncept/Storm 360 on ground in Nigeria this weekend and online (notjustOk.com) on Monday Morning. I can personally say that I have seen YQ evolve into a stronger and more mature artiste.

As you can see, this remix here is packed with big names so you should only expect a big Tune! Listen and share your thoughts.

PREMIERE: Jamix ft Ice Prince, Wizkid & Kel – My Party + Omo Naija (Remix) ft Terry G, 9ice & M.I

Posted on July 15th, 2010 by Ovie O

Anyone who is anyone in the Nigerian music industry knows and respects Jamix! He is one of the craziest producers in Lagos but not as visible as the common names. His productions include Styl-Plus’s “Always on my mind,” ModeNine’s “Nigerian Girls,” Faze’s “Kolomental”, most of OverDose’s songs, and several others.

In 2009, he stepped out with one of the heaviest collaborations of the year featuring M.I, Terry G and 9ice” on the hit single “Omo Naija.” Now he has released his debut album as a Producer titled “The Lecture.” It’s a very juicy compilation with features from the likes of Kel, Ice Prince, Wizkid (on “My Party”, which you can hear below), among other known names. You definitely need to own a copy as a music lover. For those in Nigeria, look out for it on the streets. For the rest of us abroad, NJO is currently working on getting it on the notjustOk Shop for your consumption. We’ll update you guys on that. Stay with us… as always!

VIDEO: P Square, M.I & Kojo BET Awards Red Carpet Interview with Nick Cannon

Posted on June 29th, 2010 by Mola OG

This past Sunday (June 27, 2010), the BET awards went down in Los Angeles California. Two of Nigeria’s finest, P Square and M.I were nominated for the Best International Act and both present at the award show.

Unfortunately, their category was not presented live but the winner (Dizzee Rascal) was announced online about half an hour after the show was over. I was quite pissed off that BET decided to skip this category on the live broadcast. I mean these artistes traveled a great distance to show up at the awards. Anyway, I hope the twins and Mr Incredible made as much contacts as they planned to.

In the video below, Nick Cannon of Dummer Boy Drum Line and Wild ‘N Out fame caught up with P Square, M.I and Kojo on the red carpet.

This is for all of you out in Naija who were not able to watch the pre-award show. Enjoy!
