VIDEO: BASE ONE - SKON SKON

Aquila Records’ lyrical machine-gun BASE ONE decided to tone it down a bit and have some fun on his SKON SKON project. Asides the comical lyrics that the SKON SKON song is rich in, the viral video is here and it is nothing but sheer fun as it doesn’t only see Base One and select dancers have a go at the Skon SKon dance, it also features some of the best entries from the #SkonSKonDance contest held on Instagram a couple of weeks ago.

Directed by Ruff Ikonz Films, the viral video was shot on location in Dolphin Estate, Lagos.

This is just a breather as we anticipate Base One’s collaboration with K1 De Ultimate, titled Better Dey Come, which drops in a week.

VIDEO: IBK SPACESHIPBOI - PADEYA

Welcome to the Spaceshipboi season! IBK just launched out as an actor in the Chioma Onyewe drama flick, #8barsandaclef and he isn't showing signs of slowing down.

In the first quarter of the year, he headed out to the United states to work on his new music project (WORLDRADIO by SPACESHIPBOI) that is now said to be scheduled for a 2017 release. This is a project aimed at showcasing the world's beauty and destroying the stereotypes we have about certain races and geographical locations through the power of good music and collaboration.

But before the entire project is ready, the Martianship Music Company CEO has decided to drop the visuals to the first single off the (WORLDRADIO by SPACESHIPBOI) project.

Title : PADEYA

Recorded in The United States and Cali - Colombia.

Lyrics: Spanish

Directed by IBK Spaceshipboi

The video features his good friends Fabian Sanchez and Daniel Demendoza of the @1beatmusic 2015 alumni as well as other local musicians in Cali-Colombia.

Padeya is available on all digital media stores worldwide (itunes, googleplay, amazon, tidal, spinlet). Be sure to cop it and spread the good word.

This is going to be a Summer to remember for good and PADEYA is definitely going to be on your playlist.

OMENESA RETURNS WITH NEW SINGLE, "GOLD" | @OmenesaPearls

OMENESA(Oruma Akomolafe, Aka: Lady O) is a resounding name in the Gospel Music Industry. As she struggled through  many upheavals in her life(Armed Robbery, Mental Abuse, Miscarriage, Anxieties and Depression), she wrote this song in her FIGHT for life, as a message to everyone - "Life happens, but how you respond to it is what matters. I have fought the battles of life, and I came out stronger." 

Her new song "Gold" is a reminder to her audience that the fire does not burn, it only refines.

Her Mentor,  Sam Oye made that statement.  She purposely released this song today ( June 20) as it is her Dad's Birthday(Bishop Ben Oruma). " I have seen my dad stand in the midst of the fires of life. He came out with smoke, but he never got burned. He was so upset that the release date would be  so far from when I recorded it. He said ' It is a Hit'. He is my Hero and I dedicate this song to him."

I also dedicate this song to Apostle Gift Uwubanmwen of South Africa. This is one Pastor who heard me sing 'Gold' LIVE in a Conference in Yenegoa, Nigeria  and insisted I record it. Hence, you have it today."

This Singer/Preacher has set a mark with her new song : GOLD. She further states, "I wrote GOLD at one of my Dad's services, during the altar call. I'm called to emotional healing. I have a prophetic word for this pained generation. There is a phrase in the song that states, "I don't care what the Doctor said. I don't care what the Lawyer said. I don't care what your Mama said. All I know is you're coming out gold".

 After her exhilarating ministration on the Impact Network on The Bobby Jones Show in Nashville TN, her ministry hit a bar, that has kept her itinerary busy.

Currently residing in New York City, USA, with a global mandate to heal the sick and raise the dead through her anointed voice, She is known for her passion in delivery, and contute range.

Being a survivor of an 18 hour Scoliosis Surgery, abuse in her early teenage and adult years, police brutality, a miscarriage, and years and years of private pain, OMENESA harbored this message after she too went through the fire... YOU ARE COMING OUT GOLD!

The Video for the new single, GOLD  was directed by her husband, Niyi Akomolafe (Aka: El-gibbor), President of Nibbor Productions. Gold was produced by Nigeria's Finest Producer: Niyi P.

MORE ABOUT OMENESA

OMENESA has shown that tenacity does pay off, as she auditioned for American Idol 7 times, Sunday Best 5 times and became a Semi Finalist on American Television Show (Gospel Dream).  She is determined to set the captives free, as she sings and preaches to the glory of God the Father. She is a Certified Life Coach and currently working on her Masters in Thanatology (Study of dying & mourning), and taking a double degree as PhD in Sexology. She is also a Mentee at the International Institute of Mentoring in Cleveland TN, as well as the Liaison Officer for Fogmmon ( Fellowship of Gospel Music Ministers of Nigeria ). OMENESA has her work caught out for her as she goes fishing in dark places, to show that hope is light.

OMENESA is a member of Brooklyn Tabernacle Church in Brooklyn New York and apart from her Parents ( Bishop Ben & Joy Oruma), She is also mentored by Minister Judy Jacobs, Pastor Sam Oye, & Shimite Bello

With a profound gift of God, here comes another block buster Jazz song, remix of ‘Igwe’ by Multi Award Winning Music Producer, International Jazz Pianist, Arranger, Synthesizer programmer, Music Consultant and UN International Youth Peace Ambassador Wole Oni.  

He comes with this breathtaking, heart-stirring, spine tingling Afro Cuban known as Salsa music which has so many intriguing, alluring elements of transverse horns ensemble with diverse coloration and rhythmic procession of luxuriant percussions, heavy bottled syncopations yet easy to sing along and danceable vibes. 

Haven produced so many great hit such as; ‘Olomi’ by Tosin Martins, ‘Kosobabire’ by Folake Umosen, ‘Ijoba Orun’, ‘kolebaje’ and Others by Lara George, ‘Woman’s Need’ and ‘Afurumginaya’ by Praiz, ‘African Woman’ and ‘Mango Tree’ by Jodie, ‘So More’ by Kenny Kore, Nigerian Centenary Theme Song All Stars by Onyeka Onwenu, ‘Mo More’ by Kayode Olusoji, just to mention a few, Wole Oni, popularly known as (WOMP) is indefatigable making waves across the globe.

‘Igwe’ features the world acclaimed Saxophonist and Performing Artist Mike Aremu and dexterous Trumpet player Victor Ademofe.

To show that God is the only Igwe (King), Wole Oni recorded an acoustic, fluffy, warm, silky yet fat and inspiring sound of heaven. Rattling on the piano with an astounding improvisation disseminating some plausible, incontrovertible chords while punctiliously interpreting the song in his own arrangement although the original version was released years back by the quadruple ever-blazing group Midnight Crew. 

‘Igwe’ song exhibits another expression of a copacetic and exceptional talent out of Africa and speaks about the musical prowess and divinity of God’s awesomeness; with a blend of sweet and enthralling melodies.

This is for all Salsa dancers. Put on your dancing shoes and rock with this euphonious and mellifluous music.  Have fun and enjoy!
