I Never Went For Rehab, But Seclusion –Majek Fashek
Legendary Reggae
Singer Majek Fashek is really getting his groove back since returning from rehab some months back as he has been seen gracing various stages performing some of his track songs.
Not admiring the way people refer him for going into rehab, the ‘Rain maker’ in a recent interview with popular TVC programme Explained That he only went into seclusion and not rehab as called by Nigerians.
He said what got him into seclusion was because some forces were trying to “tap in his spiritual intellect” and he had to go into seclusion for a while.
When analyzing the kind of sounds made by young artistes this days, Majek Fashek stated that he cannot blame them because it is their own sound they are trying to create. He noted that his future in music is in the hands of God as he hopes to bring new sound which will enable him challenge the younger ones who use women to shake their backside in videos.
“My future is in the hands of God and I hope to be bringing out new sound so I can challenge these young boys who are using women to shake their bum-bum,” he said.
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.
