Wizkid Plans to Collabo with Daddy Showkey
This is a clear case of the old school and the new school blending in a musical collaboration as Wizkid prepares to release his sophomore album which he featured ‘90s ghetto soldier, Daddy Showkey, in one of the tracks. Having already showed off the track list from his forthcoming album with promising collaborations with Don Jazzy, Seyi Shay, Efya, Banky W and more new school artistes, Wizkid is taking it a bit further back and has revealed that he would also be releasing a song with the ‘Dyna’ crooner who was one of the biggest stars in the country in years gone back. The duo spent some time together in the studio and Wizkid confirmed that a ‘jam’ has been produced between the musical geniuses from two different generations. Recall that Wizzy did a collabo, ‘Jaiye Jaiye’, with Afro Beat King, Femi Kuti, a few weeks ago.

Notting Hill Carnival London 2013: All Colour, All Fun, All Things Bright & Beautiful (Photos From The Nigerian Corner)
We Nigerians are a lovely bunch. We are in tune with our natural desires, never passing up an opportunity to connect with finer things in life. And so we saw at this year’s Notting Hill Carnival in London. Once again the Nigerian corner ruled the event, as it was a jamboree of colours and explosive performances.
Comedian Gbenga Adeyinka kept the mood jolly, and the celebrities such as Teju Babyface, Dr. Sid, Dayo d1 adeneye, Sunday Are, Naeto C, Ayo Shonaiya, Alariwo of Africa and OK Nigeria Owner, Alexander Amosu were on hand to taste of the pervading verve.
Acrobatic dancing, and intricate gyrating routines made for thrilling spectacle, with D3 Dancers leading the band of revelers. Dizzy was a class act, and so was Honey B, Daughter of Fuji music crooner, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal KWAM 1. Honey B’s electrifying performance will go down in history as the best from a female act.
Next up were Moelogo who graced the stage with sensational singing and banging beats. Tillaman cut in with a performance, Tipsy, Lace and Nikki Laoye raced us all to finish line.
With a crowd held spellbound all day long, with a lethal combo of good food, better wine, and the best music, the Nigerian Corner made for the hottest of stops. See you all next year.
If for any reason, you contrived to miss the event, citing reasons best known to you, you did yourself a great disservice. But not to worry, we got you pictures. Say thank you!
