I don’t even defend myself on this space, no matter how bad. I have seen real love from my fans on this internet. My dm is filled with amazing and lovely comments from y’all.

”And I’ve also read comments and sometimes I do ask myself, Queen is this you or someone else? God help me. All I’ve always prayed for is too be famous and rich. Fame I’ve. Money I’m hustling up to get. But it may seem as though the fame is landing me in troubling here and there. God help me.”

I Believe ‘Everybody Loves Jenifa’ Will Hit N5 Billion – Actress, Funke Akindele Says

Funke Akindele, Nollywood’s box office star, is aiming to set new records with her upcoming movie, Everybody Loves Jenifa, set to premiere in cinemas on December 13, 2024.

“We want to make money from it. Imagine what we would have made if A Tribe called Judah wasn’t pirated. But we thank God. This is another opportunity, please protect this film for me. Please I beg you in the name of God, no phones. We had to record a video to tell people, no recordings,” she said.

The movie boasts an impressive cast, including Akindele herself as Jenifa, Folarin ‘Falz’ Falana as Sege, and other notable actors like Jackie Appiah, Nancy Isime, and Patience Ozokwor.

Nicki Minaj Features Davido In New Song To Mark Pinkprint Anniversary

Award-winning American rapper/songwriter, Nicki Minaj is marking the tenth anniversary of her iconic album, The Pinkprint.

To celebrate the milestone, she released a special edition of the album, featuring four brand-new tracks for her dedicated fans.

The anniversary edition not only honors the legacy of her 2014 masterpiece but also offers a fresh glimpse into the creative process behind one of hip-hop’s most influential projects.

The newly released tracks include a mix of surprises, from collaborations with major artists to solo ventures that showcase Minaj’s versatility.

One of the standout songs, “Turn Ya Cap Back”, features Swae Lee, with the Rae Sremmurd star providing the song’s smooth vocals while Nicki alternates between singing and rapping, creating a dynamic, upbeat vibe.

Another track, “It’s Okay”, explores dancehall influences, with contributions from David Guetta and Nigerian artist Davido. The song’s infectious beat and energetic rhythm capture the dancehall craze that dominated hip-hop in the mid-2010s, making it a nostalgic yet current offering for fans.

But perhaps the most exciting addition is “Arctic Tundra,” a track that had previously leaked in 2019 but had never seen an official release—until now.

Featuring the late Juice WRLD, the song is a poignant collaboration, with the two artists displaying a natural vocal chemistry. It has quickly become a fan favorite, praised for its emotional depth and melodic harmony.

The Pinkprint was a defining album for Nicki Minaj, showcasing her range as both a rapper and a singer while solidifying her place in the rap pantheon. The album produced massive hits like “Anaconda”, “Only”, and “Bed of Lies”, which helped propel Minaj into global superstardom.
