9ICE + WANDE COAL + BANKY W

Hi Everyone!!!!!
Wow! Thanks to all those who have entered the ‘Mrs Club’ competition so far! U guys rock. I have read everything so far and will make the decision this weekend. Feel free to leave a comment on that post letting us know your fave.
Meanwhile, we have some other stuff we want to give away but will not put you through any more ‘stress’ this week!
So the next competition is super easy!
The person who posts the ‘first comment’ on this post will get a copy of the new Nayo album ‘African Girl’. Please try to email me immediately you comment so I identify you and sort out your prize!
Soooooo when the always fab Funmi Iyanda mentioned on her blog that she was going to be interviewing 3 of my fave Nigerian crooners, I was hella excited.
I am soooo proud of these 3 fellas!
Wande Coal’s voice is just amazing. Ololufe is my song.
9ice – need I say more? Gongo Aso is everyone’s song! His new album is amazing, so many people have been sending in reviews. I am so sad that I don’t have a copy.
Banky W, y’all know how much I luv Banky’s music! Have you bought the album? You need to HERE
Anyways, here are the interviews from Funmi’s show.

Hi Bella,you are one of the very view that has kept me entertained and informed during this period(heavily pregnant and taking it easy).Am thankful.
Am feeling 9ice,first it was his voice and style that got me while listening to the demo of Ruggedy baba as played to me by Ruggedy himself,now it's even more,his choice of words and depth.Am feeling him and take it from one artist to another,he's got it,my advice to him,watch out for the vices.....they pull you down fast,hold on to your woman,be faithful to her,be dedicated to your talent,remain as humble as ever and watch out for 'awon ota ti won se bi ore'.one love
Am new in the bloggers community and am loving it,it's my first blog ever today!
It's www.ara-drums.blogspot.com
Cheers.

Wande Coal-not COLE..quick correction dere.
I love his voice.
I don't think the questions the audience asked Banky made sense.

Ohimai Godwin Amaize said...

Heeeey Bella! I know me I'm not included in your bonanaza because I didn't take 1st abi? Ha ha...I think I like that Funmi's chat with Wande Coal - the Blackest of them all. And come to think of it, did he get that name from Charcoal? I mean Wande Char-Coal? But that sounds better, don't you think? LOL!

Well Bella, have you seen this video WHO KILLED WANDE COAL? I couldn't help rolling on the floor with laughter! You've got to see it, it's on Tosyn's blog alraedy!

TMinx said...

I would have so been attacked by Funmi for calling Gongo Aso Razz but then again I call myself razz..so does that count *cheeky grin*

Wonderful artists. I am starting to really like 9nice. There is something interesting about him. I think he is very inspiring. People like this always go extremely far in life.

Wande coal's voice is beautiful.I was laughing when he was wiping his face with his handkerchief.

And Banky is just a star. I pray he goes far. He seems intelligent.

The way Nigerian celebrities answer questions still amazes me. They have to call God's name in almost every sentence. I am starting to find this trend quite annoying.

And the audience need to learn how to ask specific questions.

err ehm Tminx - nope maam calling yourself razz, esp when you don't mean it in the same context doesn't count hon ;D sowwy

Bella, I hear say This Day Music Festival 2008 is happening in Abuja, London and Washington DC this year because the events centre in Lekki has been banned by the authorities. Do you know what is happening since you always have the entire gist on it?
