Signed to X3M Music, Praiz has been on the tips of music lover tongues for a while now; after a stunning performance at the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria (MBGN) pageant this year and a few other show, music critics are now anticipating his singles.
According to his label the fast rising vocalist will be debuting with two new singles; ‘I love you’ and ‘Jekalo’ tomorrow Monday, August 29, 2011.
‘I’m offering these two songs to anyone who has ever felt the sweetness of love. Working on ‘I love you’ and ‘Jekalo’ was a positive experience for me and I’m talking to love birds on these cuts. It’s from Praiz with love and I’m sure everyone will fall in love with these songs’, Praiz says.
According to the uber talented act; ‘I love you’ featured production efforts by Wole Oni while Tee-Y Mix produced ‘Jekalo.
Since then he has gone on to wow music critics and fans with cameo appearances and collaborative efforts with top artistes in Nigeria; most notably his stellar performance on M.I’s ‘Epic’ and a guest appearance on alternative singer Bez‘s ‘Super Sun’ album. Praiz is signed to X3M music, a Lagos-based record label which houses rapper Overdose.
Coson Declares September 1 As ‘No Music Day’
The Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON) has declared Thursday September 1, 2011 as a ‘No Music Day’ throughout Nigeria. The declaration was made in a statement issued by COSON president Chief Tony Okoroji on Friday, August 26, 2011.
Okoroji says the day ‘will be dedicated to drawing national attention to the widespread infringement of the rights of composers, song writers, performers, music publishers and other stakeholders in the music industry in Nigeria’.
Similarly, the Nigerian Music Industry Coalition have requested that all broadcasting stations dedicate time on the same day to granting and airing interviews, debates or any other program related to artistes rights as a way of supporting the cause.
This isn’t the first time a protest of this sort would hold as it was first staged throughout the country two years ago on Tuesday, September 1, 2009.
In 2009, the compliance level was low, but the facilitators said at the time that the campaign was a success judging by the level of awareness and debate that followed the advocacy.
This also spurred the apprehension and prosecution of the notorious ‘Alaba King of Pirates’, Tony Onwujekwe and consequently the birth of COSON.
No word yet from PMAN, the umbrella body for musicians in Nigeria. And we’re yet to confirm which stations (TV and Radio) will be joining in the ‘No Music Day’ campaign…
Banky W, Eldee, Tiwa Savage, Jesse Jags Headline Hennessy Artistry
Organizers of the popular music platform Hennesy Artistry have announced the list of artistes to participate in this year’s edition.
At a media briefing held at Liwkid Lounge, Victoria Island, Lagos, on Friday August 26, Tokini Peterside Hennessy’s Communications Manager, informed that singer/producer eLDee da Don, R&B singers Tiwa Savage, Banky W and pop singer/producer Jesse Jagz will be front lining this years’ Hennessy Artistry project.
According to Peterside, these four artistes were chosen ‘because of their cutting edge style that sets them apart from the crowd’. They will be working together to ‘create, mix and blend their different styles and sounds’ as they create a ‘special song’ that encapsulates the vivacious styles of music in Nigeria.
The organizers of Hennessy Artistry, the innovative musical platform launched by Hennessy worldwide in 2006, say ‘The grouping together of such varied artistes is what Hennessy Artistry is all about. That is: a perfect blend of unique elements similar to what is experienced with Hennessy’s premium range of cognacs. Similar to last year’s edition, a video will be shot for the song these artistes come up with. Four premium night experiences are also in the works at which our consumers can get to be a part of the Hennessy Artistry experience’, Peterside explained.
This year’s Hennessy Artistry will be showcasing eLDee, Tiwa Savage, Banky W and Jagz to the public giving them the opportunity to see and meet fans live at the Hennessy Artistry VIP Nights coming up in September and October in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt.
As a teaser to the upcoming VIP Nights, music acts YQ, DavidO, Shank and BlackMagic will be performing live at various clubs in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. Music will be supplied by BEAT Fm’s DJ Caise.

Mercy Johnson's Mother: No evil hands or thought against my daughter will work!
The wedding which has been earlier overshadowed by rumours that it has been called-off will be holding on August 27.
In a recent interview, Mercy Johnson’s mother opens up about the husband snatching scandal.
Excerpts from the interview;
Madam, are you indeed Mercy Johnson's mother?
Yes I am. Mrs Elizabeth Johnson, mother of Mercy Johnson.
What are your plans towards her marriage amidst these controversies?
I don't have any plans now, God is our town planner, I put my trust in Him. He is the one that raised her to where she is today, before she met Odi God was aware, everything happening today are not unknown to Him. My belief is that if God assigns Odi of which I know He has done for her, as a husband, the gate of hell can't prevail over it. God that made their paths cross know their future, present and past, whosoever stands anywhere looking for the downfall of the innocent girl will face the battle of God.
Madam, did Odi inform you he was married as is generally reported in the media?
Odi isn't married, he told our family, that when he got to Italy, the lady was his girlfriend and she bore him a child, later, Lovely met a guy and followed him to Canada and she bore him that boy, the woman herself confirmed it. We are not aware of other things because Odi has said the truth and when we asked him how long they separated, he said for the past 5 years. Let us say the truth and let the devil be ashamed. I have told my daughter to let the will of God be done in her life. As for rumour mongers saying Mercy has scattered her home, she is the one who scattered her home because if she loves Odi she wouldn't have followed another man and even giving him a child, the man is late now, so they want to set my innocent daughter up and spoil her day of joy and I know God will never agree with them.
Why do you think this is a planned work to disrupt Mercy's wedding?
There are people who watch you without you knowing, out of all the children I have, Mercy is unique, I can never deny her anytime any day, she is gifted and God has used her to bring the family up, so if anybody is stepping on my joy, he or she will face the wrath of God cos one stupid person who claims to be a man of God said in the newspapers that if her mother is reasonable enough she will make her cancel the wedding. The man is not a born-again cos if he is and isn't deaf and blind, he would have asked how a woman who left her husband five years ago now shows up threatening with fire and brimstone, this definitely is a set up but as many as run their mouths against the Johnson's family will face the wrath of God because we are innocent.
Did you have any inkling at her inception or birth that she would be this famous?
No, we are Christians in our family, we hand our children to God and after that it is sealed up. It is God who made her what she is today, when she was young, she used to play and make a lot of people laugh, she is very free, that made us to know that she had a brighter future ahead, she was the head girl in secondary school, she always come first in sports, dress rehearsals so I see no reason why she shouldn't excel in her career. No evil hands or thought against Mercy can work; nobody can overcome her I Jesus name. (Father cuts in) I have been reading stories tarnishing our image, imagine somebody wrote that I said I have cancelled the wedding, when did I say so? We should have the fear of God in whatever we do. Like this Lovely of a person, if she is actually the wife of Odi and my daughter is struggling to take her away from her marriage, I will pray to God and tell my daughter not to go into another person's home but the truth is my daughter knew Odi in 2009, if Odi is so important to her why must she leave him for another man; now, she wants to come back saying somebody is snatching her husband from her, I can phone Odi's father and they will tell you they don't even know her.
There was also a report that Mercy has run away from home?
How can they say she has run away from home, I saw her this morning, we were together.
Madam, are you saying the wedding is still going on as planned?
God is a God of plans, He will bring out everything perfectly, we depend and look up to Him, we have put everything into his hands and nobody can change the plan of God
What would the party be like, is it going to be church affair or with some traditional touches?
In our area, we do traditional, court and church weddings. I did the three when I was getting married to her father; it is the same pattern that we will follow.
You don't attend the same church with mercy?
No we don't, we attend Pentecostal church, Mercy and her elder sister used to go to The Redeemed Christian of God before she started attending the Christ Embassy
What are her church plans for the wedding?
I don't have anything to do with the church cos we don't attend Christ Embassy; all I know is that God says her marriage will stand. Mercy is not the first person people will plan evil against. Our God is a God of battle. She has never soiled her hands in anything devilish. Many people mistaken her ole in movies to be her person, she has been given different names, some say she wants to marry because she is pregnant, I asked her if she was pregnant and she said she was in her period that she was going to show me.
So by your words, the wedding is going as planned?
By the grace of God, with all the powers of God. I Elizabeth , I say nothing though I have nobody to assist me, I have God, nothing will stop my daughter's wedding. Let this be a lesson for every woman who doesn't want their husbands to be their husbands. If you don't respect what you have when you lose it you will be crying for nothing because she lost her husband and Mercy took over, so nothing can happen. She has lost her husband, Mercy has taken over, let her go and die.

D'BANJ AND MOHITS RECORDS CREW IN ILLUMINATI PLOT TO TURN THE NATION GAY
The certain proof was offered by artists of the record label themselves, causing Nigerians to philosophically comment that ‘they have used their own hands to do themselves.’ The proof in query is a video clip produced by the record label in which D’Banj, Don Jazzy, Doctor Sid, Wande Coal and an unidentified man dance like gay men to D’Banjs’ new hit single, Oliver Twist. Doctor Zen Solonso, a Zen expert and a leading name on everything Illuminati, analysed the video and exposed all of the concealed Illuminati symbols in it.
According to him, one of the largest objectives of the Illuminati is to turn everyone gay this is the reason why their known members like Kanye West, dress like Gay men. It might be remembered that D’Banj and Don Jazzy have just signed on to Kanye Wests’ record label.
In the group’s Oliver Twist video, they didn’t only dance like gay men, they also invite folk to record their own Oliver videos and post it to them at olivermohitsrecords.com. And they further lured folk with thousands of bucks that’ll be paid to the best video.
Already there are a large number of videos on Youtube showing younger people, both lads and lasses, dancing like gay men to the Oliver Twist song.
Doctor Solonso also indicated that in the group’s video Don Jazzy is wearing what seems to be checkered trousers. “This swapping pattern of white and black squares is the Illuminati’s mind control method,” he claimed. Indeed, according to the expert, the song’s familiar tune and highly danceable sound is down to Don Jazzy’s pants.
Doctor Solonso also indicated that at some specific point in the video the unidentified man walks across the camera, holding a red bag and what appears to be a fascinated horn. Eventually , the expert turned the spotlight on the sound speakers and other electronic apparatus organized to spell the word ILLUMINATI behind the artists as they dance like gay men. This, according to him, is the most powerful proof the video, the track, and the invite for folks to video their own Oliver Twist videos are nothing apart from an Illuminati plot to turn Nigerians gay.
‘Our Marriage Is Intact’ – Will Smith And Jada Pinkett Shutdown Rumours

Actress Steph-Nora threatens to take P-Square to court over stolen song
Steph claims that several months ago, she sampled the opinion of Jude Okoye, the elder brother, producer and manager of Peter and Paul, on one of her songs titled ‘Jeje’, only for her to find a sample of it in P-Square’s new album, The Invasion. Here’s what she told the press:
“I sent the song over to Jude via email and he listened to it. The next day I called him for his opinion and he said exactly these words ‘Stephnora the song is good but don’t release it like that because it doesn’t meet the standard of the Nigerian market’. I asked him what should be done and he suggested that I return to the studios and brush it up.
“As a brother and colleague, I took his advice and went back to the studio with my producer, Jiff. I also consulted with my manager, and we agreed to improve on the work ahead of the album launch, which I planned for this December. I finally completed the song in May/ June. But to my consternation, two weeks ago my personal assistant called my attention to P Square’s new album, which included a track entitled Jeje.
“What they did was to remix the chorus of my version to a danceable track. That was not all; they also gave their version the same title, Jeje and featured Waje.”
As Steph threatens to go to court, P-Square have kept totally mute on the issue.

Obey, Juliana Dies At 67
Although the family is yet to disclose the cause of death, we however gathered that the lady evangelist had recently travelled to a healthcare centre in India. A family source also told Nigerian Entertainment Today (NET) that she died of a heart related disease.
Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi reportedly quoted a bible verse at his first reaction of her death, ‘For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even unto death (Psalm 48:18)’, and speaking with our reporter when NET paid a visit to his residence on Olu Akerele Street by Balogun Bus/Stop, Ikeja on Wednesday, August 24, 2011 where a press briefing was being held, he said, ‘I have nothing much to say, but to thank the creator…. Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD (Job 1:21)’.
Born Juliana Olaide Olufade on March 23, 1945, the deceased married the Obey in 1963. NET also gathered that she was a frontline businesswoman and a poultry farmer.
Mrs. J. O. Obey-Fabiyi is survived by her husband, Evang. Obey Fabiyi (MFR), Shina, Rotimi, Bukky Obey-Olaiya, Lanre, Toluwaleke and Folarin.
