Don Jazzy Under Attack For Dorobucci
Since the release of
the Monster hit song Dorobucci, Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy has been under fire recently when speculations went viral that his “Durobucci” song has an occultic inclination. Although he came out to debunk such claims, tongues have not yet stopped waging.
A recent report has it that DonJazzy has asked for entries for the creative designs of “Doro Mega Super Hero” with a cash reward of $3000. According to one of Nigeria’s creative directors, Tola Alabi, the competition is a publicity stunt which he sees as unethical and exploitative. He argued that instead of spending such money for the so called competition, he could have approached a creative agency or individual to do the job for him.
“As a matter of fact, how do you effectively pick the best out of over a thousand anything, he queried. He stressed that if DonJazzy has $3000 to spend on developing this excuse of character, why did he not approach a creative agency or individual and work with them which is how he does his music videos.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
