Music - WallyWa ft Alexyz - I Go Need Luv Remix (DJ Don X Worldwide Premiere)

Growing up in the motherland, the Nigerian native Wallywa spent time with his loving mother day in and day out. She sang songs of praise and worship to her last born before he slept off at night and carried him to their church. It was through his mother that music began to affect his everyday life. His mother always knew there was something special about her youngest lad which is why she gave him the name Raphael Olawale Ehinmidu meaning “Bring Good Luck Home!”
At a very young age Wallywa took a different path than many of his fellow friends. He chose to follow his dreams and not let the streets get the best of him. He began perfecting his business savvy craft. His love for music, fashion and money at such a young age inspired him to take on challenges that would soon lead him to become one of the most successful international musical artists in the world! At the age of 12, Wallywa moved to Silver Spring, Maryland and strived diligently to be successful. There were long nights of listening to Bob Marley and Fela Kuti to gain insight for his musical journey. “I remembered those nights my mother used to sing worship songs to keep faith. That’s what keeps me going” -Wallywa

The sleepless nights spent writing lyrics and composing music about his life struggles in America and Nigeria added stimulation to his harmonic flows. As Wallywa continued to grow more passionate about his music he decided to take it up a notch. He gave up everything to pursue music full time. This is what made him not just a man but a true “Gentleman!”
The DC, Maryland and Virginia area is known for its irresistible beat banging gogo music and of course Wallywa used his clever forces to form a gogo band in the year 2000. He continued managing the gogo band until 2004. Times were not easy and gogo music was only limited to the DMV area. Wallywa was on a mission to be the next blazing commodity and he created a brilliant strategy to get him to the top! “The day 2one became an idea was during a time when I was desperate. Desperation opened up new doors of opportunities for me.” -Wallywa

2one Music hit the scenes in 2006 and Wallywa focused on branding himself as well as the entity. With influences like Lil Wayne and Jeezy he combined those to create his sound and introduced his own essence to Afro Hip-Hop. The release of his first mix tape MaadMan Volume 1 received tremendous reviews from fans all over the United States. Wallywa was in high demand and doing shows in DC, New York, Atlanta, and Toronto. He took on performances at the Nigerian Entertainment Awards and The Nigerian DJ’s Summer Jam. His unique sound and individuality distinguished him from most African hip-hop artists. The unique sound he brings to Hip-Hop is what sets his talent above what other artists bring to the table. Wallywa knew Hip-Hop was rapidly moving throughout Africa and he took advantage of the opportunity to be a part of the Afro Hip-Hop movement. “My goal is to conquer Africa, America and then the UK! Soon the whole world will know the name Wallywa!”-Wallywa
He is known for hot singles like “Me and You”, “I Go Need Love”, and “I Dey Feel You.” It was no surprise when Wallywa switched up the scene and moved back to Nigeria to reach his goal of conquering Africa. His African fan base wanted more from Wallywa. He opened up 2one Music Headquarters in Abuja, Nigeria to build his empire to continue with the movement.
Wallywa is currently working on the “Now or Neva” project and planning tours for Nigeria, UK and the United States. “I was so hungry and my mother fed me. She gave me a vision and that’s why I am able to see clearly. Without her I would not know my true destiny in life. My mother is my inspiration and the reason my music tells a story. People say the sky is the limit, but I’m going beyond the universe.”-Wallywa

This is a remix to the original made in 2007 and its already a club favorite in Abuja. 
Enjoy.

Music - X.O Senavoe : Killing Me feat Mugeez (of R2Bees) & Teeklef

Now independent. Kelechi Ohia a.k.a KEL is currently working on new singles for her sophomore album.
Here's something she recorded recently in one of her many sessions with the talented Deejay Klem,
it's titled 'ACTION' and is a totally different sound that we are used to hearing from the femcee.

Following suit in the following weeks, will be her new singles, till then....enjoy! (Sic)

I hear a bit of the "Party Hard" funky house trend of music that Nigeria seems to have embraced. Not sure if she pulled it off in its entirety but question is what do you think?

Music - Jedi : LasGidi Boy

Commonly called “The Well Fed Comedian,” the ridiculously hilarious entertainer Jedi was born in the late 1970s on the 30th of October to a family of 3 children of which he is the second. He Studied Microbiology at the Lagos State University but had the 'gene' of entertainment in his blood. It wasn’t until 1991 he discovered another part of being a comedian. He was given the opportunity to M.C at a University concert and it turned out to be a huge success. From there he handled a comedy segment that lasted for two years with Ayo Makinde & Dele Agadumo a.k.a Christol on Eko 89.75 FM on the program "Make it happen".
Jedi has been on demand at various shows around the world and has performed at the following events: Ali Baba live, Unleash d' Comedy with Basorge Taria, Gbenga Adeyinka n' Friends, Crack ya ribs with Julius Agwu-london(1, 2 & 3), live 'n Naked with Tee A(lagos, Abuja & london), Harps 'n Psalms with Okey Bakassi, Crazy Comedy with Owen Gee, Shades of Comedy with Princess, Holy Laughter with Holy Mallam, Laffs 'n jamz With Basket Mouth, '2nd Term' with Teju Babyface, Made in Warri with RMD (Lagos, Abuja & London), Rhythm Unplugged (Port Harcourt, Abuja & Lagos), Out of Africa with Sammy Okposo (London), The Future Awards, Nigerian Entertainment Awards-New York (2008), World Aids Day Celebration-Bayelsa State Government( 2007 & 2008) and with the First Lady of Lagos State for the Lagos Empowerment And Research Network (L.E.A.R.N) program for the youths.
Jedi has evolved over the years not just as comedian and an MC but he has a unique dimension to him that separates him from his peers and that is his dedication and passion to the things of God. He is an entertainer but he has surrendered his vision to the plan and purpose of God. He is a man that has been blessed with many talents and has not limited his capabilities. He was the first Nigerian to perform on stage at the Carlin Academy in U.K. He also has a heart for mentoring up-coming comedians, thus he organized a professional seminar for those who have decided to take up a career in the entertainment industry. The seminar featured speakers like Fela Durotoye, Mr Akinyemi Akinwuntan, Ali Baba, and Dom Lawson.
Jedi has been nominated for the Best Up-Coming Comedian National Comedy Awards 2006, Best Comedian of the year for the Dynamix Awards 2006, 2007 & 2008, and Best Comedian of the year for Nigeria Entertainment Award 2008. He has received numerous honorary awards such as the Award for Excellence-Lagos State University, Rare Gem Award-Sickle Cell Initiative, and TitbitzNews Celebrity Recognition Award, to name a few. In 2007 Jedi embarked on his first solo album (G-Pikin Project), and after two years the exceptional album was released in July of 2009. Fans have referred to his songs as “feel good music” others have called it “Gospel with an inspirational vibe.”
Jedi is a brand of relevance to any and every crowd, his ability to make people laugh and his adaptability to every environment is impeccable. These qualities are what has made Jedi the multi faceted artist that he is today, and would carry him into his future achievement.

Enjoy his new single "LasGidi Boy" ..leave your thoughts about it.

Ain Mosni presents Stop Sleeping: The Mixtape

Ain Mosni is a rapper of Nigerian origin and has been regarded as a top notch rapper with intelligent lyrics and a rhyme delivery that is likened to Hip Hop veterans. Some say he has a similar voice texture to American rapper Common, others say he is reminiscent of Hip Hop legend Rakim. A lyricist extraordinaire in every sense of the phrase; he was born and raised in Nigeria and he is one of the few rappers that is placed in high esteem for his gift of delivering songs with notable content. A lot of people still find it hard to believe that he hasn't spent a substantial part of his life in America because of his impeccable rhyme delivery. His wealth of talent and intense story telling abilities has placed him on the lips of many fans across the globe. He has been dubbed the 'Revolution' in many hip hop circles in Africa and beyond.

Enjoy his mixtape from 2010 hosted by DJ Don X. Believe you me, it is worth listening.

Video : Olamide - E Ni Duro

This artist was brought to my attention by DJ A40 last year and the record made it onto DJ Don X TGIF Quick mix Vol 11
Olamide is on the rarely traveled path of hardcore Yoruba Hip Hop under the management of Toni Payne and at this rate I see him helping to promote the ever evolving native dialect rap culture.

DX

Video: Wizkid - Tease Me

This was one of the most "buzz'd" about artist in 2010. The track Tease Me is still one of the most played tracks in clubs at the moment, so it is no wonder when the video dropped, expectations were through the roof as is the norm. But I wonder why they had to go the route of him being 21 in order for the strip club video concept to work. There are a million and one ways this video could have been made that'll still preserve the 'fun' side of the track as this video although well executed; did not do the record full justice in my book.

XP - Calabar loni shan ft Reminsce Video
