Here’s a debut video for Ibo rap artiste, Sliq Mettaliqa, whose song was previously posted. Sliq Mettaliqa is a graduate of Enugu State University of Science and Technology.
Storm 360 & Podium Vybez present to you the official remix of CHAMPION. The Remix features, Gt The Guitarman, Sasha, Naeto C (Member’s of Pype’s Storm Family), Da Grin & Vector. A video has been shot by Bobby Boulders and will be dropping on all platforms very very soon.
Meanwhile, General Pype has been busy shutting down events all over the place from, The Samsung For The Love Of Music & The Beat 99.9 FM Launch Party.
General Pype is considered one of the hottest emerging dancehall artists on the continent. His album is due to in the second quarter of 2010.
Here is a brand new Artist by the name of Kayze Blinks under Sugar Town Entertainment. I don’t have much information on him, but I enjoyed the tracks he sent in. For whatever reason I am more interested in the girl on the hook just because she appears to have had more air time on the track and of course she sounds good.
This is the official introduction of yet another international collaboration between two heavy names in the African music scene: Pitch Black Afro from South Africa and General Pype from Nigeria.
Not many Nigerians are fans of the South African Kwaito music genre, but for the very few who are, you must know PBA. He’s one of the heaviest names South of the continent, winning numerous awards and topping several charts in the region.
This song was recorded about 3 months ago during the shoot for M.I’s Teaser video in South Africa. It was recently released into their market, and it’s already gaining mad airplay. It will be sent out to radio stations across Nigeria in the coming days/weeks. You know how we do…
*O.O*
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a better pic of Pitch Black Afro. lol.
Ladies and gentlemen of the Naija Order! I present to you 17-year-old DanceHall princess from Edo State, Cynthia Morgan! (yeah! 17 years only). She graduated from high school in 2008, and while she’s looking to further her education by going to college, her very obvious talents make it almost impossible to keep her off the musical radar.
This is her very first single, and I’m told there’s lots more heat in the kitchen. She’s already been snapped up by Candy Records under the project of Bay Productions. For me, she fully held it down, and refused to be drowned out by Pype (who often murders you on your own track). A bright prospect, I must say. What do you think?
*O.O*
Fun fact: DanceHall artiste, Nyore, who is quickly becoming an established name in the industry, also hails from Edo State. Do I smell homegrown competition?
There’s a new Igbo rapper in the house, and he goes by the name Sliq Metallica. He’s currently under the 411 Entertainment label, and I’m told he actually tutored Nigga Raw in the 90’s.
Sliq Metallica, real name Akabike Chudi Lawrence, is a graduate of the Enugu State University of Science and Technology, and he already has enough material for a soon-to-be-released album titled “Resurrection of Rap.” The video for this song is already being lined up as well. Listen and let me know what you think…
General Pype has dropped in with a brand new tune! This track is dedicated to Jamaican Sprinter, Usain Bolt, who recently broke his own World Record in the 100m race.
For the records, he is officially signed to Podium vybez/Storm Records.
Fast-rising Producer, Jay Sleek, has teamed up with the talented Igbo crooner, Klem, to form a lethal duo. Together, they’re called Big Dreams. This is their 1st single, and we’re told to expect more tracks from them. With the right promotion, this WILL be a hit!
