Amplifyd Crew, ASA, Riz

Hello peoples, hope u all had a gud weekend?
really didnt get up to much but the weather was good tho...i cant believe i was just talkin bout the weather....i hate weather talks; i think its wen u dnt have anything to say that u start rantin about the weather, anyways b4 i go any further on rambling.....
First and foremost, i just want to thank "blogger team" as in seriously when all hope was lost, they were able to help and fix back this site! Seriously cant express the joy of havin this site back...
Dont really have much today, just a tidbits from here and there, so lets get to it :-)

Amplifyd Crew: Wetin Man Go Do??
Okay, the Video is finally here.
What is wrong with it??: the video is damn-long as in Michael Jackson's You Rock my World kinda stuvvs; i almost cldnt watch it thru.
Whats right about it??: The Effizy of course and the CNN ish is almost believable, Muyo is such a cutie too...


I'm personally not feelin the song itself...cant get past the beat! If u like the song tho, download here.

Naija Record Label Orangootan Signs Idols Stars :

Orangootan, the music label that's home to Naija stars Ashionye, Fadabasi, Ohun, Timmy Chris and Peace Josef, has just secured a sub-licensing deal with Pan African Entertainment for two of the Idols West Africa Top 10 contestants, namely Mercy and Uche.Carl Raccah, CEO of Orangootan, said, 'Nigeria is blessed with an abundance of singing talents and Mercy and Uche are two of the best!" Asked for a glimpse of the musical direction the label had in mind for the artists, Carl said to expect 'Christian Inspirational' from Mercy and 'Afro Soul' from Uche.Sam Mbelu, the spokesperson for Pan African Limited (one of the companies that helped facilitate Idols West Africa) said, 'It is encouraging to work with an entertainment outfit like Orangootan; the company really understands the music business and we hope to partner with them again on future projects."

Though 'The idols is back this year...its not coming to Naija West Africa! The new season of Idols will head to Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe early in 2008 and it is also open to citizens of Burundi, Comoros, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Lesotho, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Reunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, Somalia and Swaziland.

Ms. Vixen! How far nah? The Amplifyed song is long and unfortunately does not make me want to dance. Sorry guys!
As for the Flex song by Riz, it is based on Flex which was sung by Cobra, not Shabba. Sorry, just had to point that out. Don't believe me? Visit www.solomonsydelle.com. I put the Riz video up a few weeks ago and put up a link to the original version. It just reminds me of Lagos when i was much younger. Love the Riz version though I have listened to it only twice.

Okay babe, enjoy your Val's day, oh! And did i say that I'm glad you are back?

Oh, my, I'm so upset! So, I actually watched the Omigbono song/Amplifyed song all the way to the end. The version they play at the end of the clip which laces the African drum beat over the 'Stronger'/Daft Punk beat is so much better than the stuff they forced us to listen to for over 6 minutes.

Come on Amplifyed...re-release this video with the second version, only. I think it would be much better.

Ms. Vixen, can you get Shank's people to release his 'Julie' wideo? It is online in facebook but does not include an embeddable link. Quite frustrating. My niece is losing her mind, I said i'd ask you to help if you can.

Happy Vals day!
I feel Asa.Question for Orangootan: When is Timi's debut landing?
their music video trailer played in a naija TV station yesterday (a first i might add)
...not big on the song but that talk in naija circles is that this is channel o video of the year

give it up to amplifyd.....theyve truly stepped their game
