AS YOU CAN "C", NAETO C JUST GOT AN MSC !!!

Yes Boss!!! On the 17th of November, 2010, Naeto C graduated with an MSc in Energy Economy. This was confirmed by Storm 360 in a statement released by the company.

From Storm 360 (released on 17th November,2010) :
Storm 360 is proud to announce that today Nov 17th, Naeto C graduates with his Msc in Energy Economics from the University of Dundee, one of the leading energy schools in the world. Naeto C represents positive action and practical solutions he chose his course of study so he can add value to the chronic power shortages in Nigeria.
From an informed position, he is now qualified to discuss the knotty issues concerning power distribution, generation and solutions for Nigeria at any level and it is this balance that makes him unique. Naeto C, on Nov 4th, in Johannesburg was crowned King of African Hip Hop @ the Channel O Music Video Awards where his video for the Dokta Frabz produced “Ako Mi Ti Poju” was rewarded with Best Hip Hop Video for 2010.

This video was shot on location in Johannesburg and directed by Bobby Boulders, and in many ways these two results culminate in the realization of two major goals. Naeto C managed to stay focused on his master’s program and has graduated with distinction and of course he remains one of the most sought after and relevant artists in Africa as this most recent award testifies.
In this same week his current single, "Ten Over Ten", which is already assuming anthemic status is being released to the major UK markets and also he is graduating today.

We are proud of him and proud of his humility and his talent. He, to our mind, represents the new modern African youth- Focused, Professional, Multi-tasking and Built to win. Naeto constantly pushes the limits of what was previously thought possible and again he has made history in his own unique way.
Join us to celebrate this unique talent, a positive story we can all embrace and one of our best young talents and minds who demand your respect.
As this phase closes with the graduation ceremony today, it's more work,no play for Naeto C as he hurries to complete his album for a xmas delivery to his fans all over the world, the album titled "Super C Season" represents a change in direction, and we will invite u all to witness the advent of Super C Season.

And we at Wahala Media say- Congratulations, you are mouthed, Naeto C.... 10/10 Gbam!! Yes Boss!!

VIDEO: MO'CHEDDAH'S GOT YA ON A ROLL!!

Mo'Cheddah has definately been the hot chic sensation of the year. With numerous award nominations, grabbing the Channel O for the Most Gifted Female Video for her first official single,"If You Want Me" and now rocking our ears with her brand nu debut album, "Franchise Celebrity"...Phew!! we just can't get enough of this amazing young lady.
And now she gives us a new outlook to the visual expression of music with the video to her latest single," Ko Ma Roll", showing off the streets of Lagos, the gaping jaws every artiste would get once you step into the popular Lagos transport system known as the BRT bus (haha! that was one of my best scenes) and of cos, the "Owambe" parties with the uniform "Aso Ebi" clothes worn by family and friends (typically Nigerian...LOL!)
Great Video, Great Direction by GiNi (the same director behind Da Grin's Pon Pon Pon)
So all my people, KO MA ROLL joor!!!
Nice one, Mo...we luving it!!
