Who Is Prince Boom ?


I just watched this video Give Them by Prince Boom featuring Reekado Banks and Tekno. For most of the video I had no idea that it wasn't Reekado Banks' song and I kept on waiting to see Tekno. Who came in halfway into to music video and was both adorable and somewhat creepy at the same time. Tekno will always be adorable to me 'I AM A FAN' obviously.

When I finally realized the guy (Prince Boom) to the right (who apparently doesn't know how to do the sign of the cross...XD) wasn't just Reekado's right hand man.

I googled him (Prince Boom) and see what popped up (Look down at the second box) (if that's what it's called), Are y'all thinking what I'm thinking ? (What I am thinking: His name was inspired by The Artist Formerly Known As PRINCE and his song Boom.)

 While waiting for Tekno and being entertained by half naked girls. I saw this (what is this?)
 I have never seen this (colour changing cups) in any music video before... Definitely more riveting than them bosomy, cleavage baring chicks (I'm flat chested so I am most likely biased...XD).

Then Tekno finally arrived... Yay! (Honestly speaking I don't think I like Tekno that much I think I am overdoing it just to make this blog-post interesting... HOPE IT'S WORKING). First thing I noticed when he finally appeared was his questionable lyrics... 'You dey craze baby when you dance baby'. Hmm... that actually kinda make sense until you say it out loud. Then to top it off he had a 'Rock On' hand signal on while saying the aforementioned
Rock On ???

Then the creepy moment I can't put my head around is this steamy  moment to the right. Mr director why did this make the cut? Trust me I did not see the 'extra' girl in the black bikini until I watched this like 5 times. Tekno looks like he forgot he was on a video set, or perhaps it is just the editing. As reality stars say the producers made me look bad.

Three Reasons to Watch Jidenna's New Music Video



Who doesn't love a retro set
Jidenna's newest music video came out a while ago. All I could say after watching it was mehn this brother has vision. Okay lemme break it down, First of all, it was a retro set. It kinda had this Baz Luhrmann feel but with coloured people (please excuse my use of this phrase). It was like a live action version of Princess and the Frog and the cherry on top people. The lead dancers were styled in Ankara!!!
 Also the dancers were dope, I really enjoyed watching them. The perv in me particularly liked the scene to the right. Perhaps if I could twerk like that I'll be making some cool paper by now...(IJS..... I know it's not that simple)

Just for your info or perhaps in an attempt to make this blog post look more professional and in turn longer. Ahem... Lastly, Jidenna could be classified as a triple threat (in some regards....IDK). As he sang, danced and obviously rapped in this music video. You should watch it!

Simple Simple Simi

 I remember the first time I heard her song 'Ogaju'. This was in 2010, then I was resident in Ibadan. I was in a taxi going to Ring Road, I was at Mokola roundabout  to be precise. She sounded like a bird, her vocals were so light but yet strong enough to command your attention.
Back then she was a gospel artist whose success was mainly in the West. Now she is Afropop artist on the rise. How things change! As a gospel artist her vocals were so powerful and commanding. Now she sounds more cute than powerful. Which I feel comes with the territory catering to the mainstream market and all.
What I feel has stuck and is unchanging is her demeanour. Simi comes of as a easy going, down to earth chick. Like people of God she performed with her natural hair! (or something that looks like her natural hair) on Ndani Sessions.


Ain't gonna lie she looks good in this edit  !
Then remember how awkward that dance scene was in 'Open and Close'. I still liked it though. Watching it I'm like awwh such a good girl she still has a bit of church her... XD. Joke!!! (I think it sounds kinda lame though... Oh well) I'm definitely looking forward to hearing more from her...
