I Begged Duncan Mighty For Collabo On Fake Love -Wizkid
Wizkid has fans admiring him after he revealed that he had to beg Duncan Mighty for a collaboration. The two talented singers released a major hit song titled ‘Fake Love’ in May, 2018. In no time the song topped major charts and most people claimed Wizkid helped revive Duncan Mighty’s career.
However, Wizkid cleared the air at his recently held ‘Made in Lagos’ concert where he brought Duncan Mighty to the stage and told his over 20,000 fans present that the went the whole mile in beging Duncan Mighty to do the song with him.
Clearly, the successful result of the hit song can be tied to a visionary Wizkid and undiluted talent of Duncan Mighty who before the collaboration with Wizkid, majorly dominated the East, but is now going national and maybe international with his music.
With the success of Fake love, Duncan Mighty also moved on to feature in Tiwa Savage’s song titled ‘Lova Lova’ and also Davido’s song titled ‘Aza’ all of which have been successful hit songs.
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.
