notjustOk Select-10 (January ‘10)

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by Mola OG

Another month has moved on and here is a new set of DOWNLOADABLE music as promised every month. January was another month full of new releases. One of the highlights of January was the BIG dialogue on the  ‘Maga No Need Pay’ song; a lot of emotions were stirred up due to that song alone.

Say hello to March as you Download. The Download Links will be up for 3 days only, so hurry and click on the Download Link!

notjustOk select is not a Top 10 list of any kind and there is no underlying reason why one song is listed before the other; there is no first or last.

notjustOk Select – 10 is a list of ten songs/posts that have made a major impact on the listeners/readers in a given month. Several factors come into determining how big of an impact a single post made in a given month, such as page views, record breaking amount of comments and constant mp3 request for the specific song. In addition to spotlighting the select 10s, we will provide a DOWNLOAD link so that you can save the mp3s.

The download link will be up for 3 DAYS ONLY! after which it will be deleted/deactivated!

Leak: M.I ft Tuface – Nobody

Posted on February 25th, 2010 by Mola OG

This is a premature leak of one of the lead singles off M.I’s MI2 album which is due out later on in 2010 and if you recall, Ovie posted a snippet/mix of ‘Nobody’ the other day.

Look, this is nothing but beautiful and world class music; the instrumental, content and hook are all FIYA. Tuface brought it HARD on this track with the hook, bridge and a fire verse. M.I as always spits some serious game about his experiences in a way we can all relate to. Solid and Classic Joint!

This exclusive version has 2face on the 3rd verse, but there’s another M.I verse on the final edit which will appear on the M.I 2 album. Enjoy this… till then!

If nobody talk about you/then you are nobody/whether na true dem talk or na lie/my guy walahi…

Official Leak: M.I – God Bless You + Nobody ft 2face (Exclusive Teaser)

Posted on February 14th, 2010 by Ovie O

Happy Valentine’s Day to all lovers out there! About a week or 2 ago, M.I’s song “God Bless You” was leaked online. For this reason, M.I has chosen to put it out as a Valentine’s Day treat to everyone. However, he promises to make alterations to the track due to the unfortunate leak (it was only meant to be an album cut). So, expect to hear something slightly different when M.I 2 drops.

*O.O*

M.I-Hustle

“God Bless You” will be changed for the album due to the leak… It is the first thing i recorded for MI2.. Before “Somebody Wants To Die”… It took about an hour to make… Mixed, Produced, Sung and Mastered by moi!!!M.I

God Bless You

Here’s an exclusive teaser for all notjustOk readers out there. If you recall, on the “Somebody Wants To Die” post last August, I told y’all M.I was “at the studio with 2face.” Here’s a sample of what they finally belted out. Believe me, the full song is on the same level as “Street Credibility” or any other heavyweight collabo that has come out of Naija in recent times. Stay tuned… more from M.I 2 coming soon!

Premiere: 9ice – Loni Ni + Safaware + Atamatase

Posted on February 12th, 2010 by Mola OG

9ice AKA Adigun AlaPomeji is Back with 3 new singles off his ‘Versus’ album which should be released some time in 2010. Surprisingly, he featured rappers on all 3 tracks, but looking at the image below it appears that Banky W and D’banj Terry G will also make it on the album.

Press play, form your own opinion and share your thoughts. All tracks were produced by Cheepho. I like the ‘Safaware’ track the most. Enjoy!’

Who is 9ice referring to on ‘Safaware‘?

‘Loni Ni’ vs Dagrin

New Video from Obiwon for his lead single off the ‘The Rebirth’ Album ft M.I,ILLBLISS,BLAISE and GUCHI. A very well done video and it looks like they used some footage from iLLBliss’ wedding.

Expect the video for ‘Birthday’ in a few days. Also, if you have not picked your copy of Obiwon’s ‘The Rebirth’ Album, go and get it NOW!

Premiere – Video: Maga No Need Pay

Posted on February 4th, 2010 by Mola OG

Here is the video for ‘Maga No Need Pay’ performed by Banky W, Bez, Cobhams, MI, Modele, Omawumi, Rooftop MCs, Wordsmith

Yahoo boys will vex even further after watching this video. I read the comments on the audio post and there were valid arguments on both sides (yahoo boys and legal hustlers)… The solution to the 419 problem will take a lot of work and right thinking, but I believe this is a good step to tackle the issue.

Leak: ‘Maga No Need Pay’ ft Banky W, M.I, Rooftop MCs, Omawumi, Modele, Bez & Wordsmith

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by Mola OG

This song was recorded for the “Microsoft Internet Safety, Security and Privacy Initiative for Nigeria” (MISSPIN) initiative which seeks to to re-direct the energies of participants of cyber crime to positive use. You can read more about the initiative here

This is a good step towards re-branding Nigeria and creating a Paradigm shift in the mind of the youths. A lot of money can be made legally through hard work and the right thinking. I also hope that we can avoid quotes like “Dey do pick YAHOO guys, but they don’t have the tins that they will use… Cause YAHOO guys, most of them they use JASS and other tins… Outside the country, outside Nigeria, they feel we are the most DEMON people, like JASS, different tins, every bad tins” in the future

Sing It LoudMaga No Need Pay

The rehabilitation program will allow twenty-five (25) young people who have been involved in cybercrime activities to benefit from training (life skills, employability skills, I.T., etc), mentorship and paid internships. They will serve as role models for other youth who have been wondering about their future beyond online criminal involvements. The musical collaboration project, which is led by one of the campaign ambassadors, Ohimai Amaeze, enjoys the benefit of having Cobhams Asuquo as producer, and an impressive line-up of artistes who have volunteered to support the MISSPIN project: Banky W, MI, Modele, Omawumi and Rooftop MCs! The song will be released in February 2010, alongside a sticker campaign that will present messages that will resonate with the population that will best benefit from this campaign. One of the stickers will announce, “Maga no need pay, I go hard for ma dough!

Leony ft M.I – Shawdy

Posted on January 7th, 2010 by Ovie O

Here’s another member of the Chocolate City crew. Leony was featured on M.I’s “Talk About It” track, and he’s decided to put out a single of his own.

I know it’s only his first single, which basically means we can’t really give a definite accessment of his talents. Regardless, one can make some sort of projection. Do you think he can emulate the success of fellow “labelmates” Ice Prince, M.I and Jesse Jagz?

*O.O*
