Jimmy Jatt's Debut Album-"The Definition".jpg)
.jpg)
Legendary DJ Jimmy Jatt is set to release his highly anticipated debut album ‘The Definition’ under storm records on the 21st of July 2007 which features fifty artists and 20 original songs. Staying true to his love of hip hop music, ‘The Definition’ is a celebration of Nigeria’s booming hip hop influenced music and entertainment industry. The compilation album or mix tape boasts of the number one hit single of the year, “Stylee,” which has dominated Music video charts from MTV to STV for almost 2 months as well as radio programs, MTN Yello top ten countdown and Rhythm FM top 7 jams at seven.. The all-star collabo features 2 Face, Mode Nine and Elajoe. The album also features superstar artists such as Ruggedman, Ikechukwu, Thoroughbreds, Black Twang, Lord of Ajasa, and a host of others, and features production by Jimmy Jatt, OJB, Jokyne, Guchiano, Eldee the Don and Kraft.
DJ Jimmy Jatt has had a busy year. Besides being booked round the clock he has managed to put this monumental album together, while starring in his own television program “Jimmy’s Jump Off,” in which he mixes and blends music Videos: another testament to his leadership role in the Nigerian Entertainment industry.
He has been at the forefront of the Nigerian hip hop scene since the eighties and not only has he been instrumental to the Nigerian hip hop scene, he has also contributed in nurturing the Nigeria music scene to the level that we find it. In the eighties, he was the one who solely organized “Road block” which was a show with the aim of showcasing talented up coming artists who have been trying to breakthrough to the limelight.
DJ Jimmy Jatt was one of the few DJ’s who would play more Nigerian Artist than any other artist on any show he was invited to perform. He earned a reputation as the number one DJ in Africa because of his skill on the turntables and basically because of his good taste of music. So show him mad love!!!
The release party is on Saturday, July 21, 2007.
Between 3:00pm - 8:00pm,@NUMETRO, SilverBird Galleria.Lagos, Nigeria.
(Performances from all d stars on the album)
***Mad love to UCHE ova at Storm Records***
