Nigerians are in grief after learning that popular gospel musician Sammie Okposo has passed away at the age of 51.
The “Welu Welu” crooner slumped on Friday, November 25, and died, according to reports that have since gone viral.
His death’s circumstances remain largely a mystery.
You may remember that the music producer became popular in the first few months of the year after he openly confessed to having an affair with his beautiful wife. Then, using his official social media account, he started to apologize to her.
His Instagram account was then deleted.
Sammie Okposo is survived by his gorgeous wife and their wonderful kids.
Wizkid, the largest bird, has accomplished a great accomplishment in his career by becoming only the second African musician to do so this in history.
Wizkid, the world’s largest eagle, broke this record in the Netherlands, becoming only the second African artist in history to do so. Prior to his Made In Lagos event, which is slated for Thursday, November 24, 2022, in Amsterdam, Wizkid has successfully sold out the 17,000-seat Ziggo Dome.
Ziggo Dome posted an official statement about this accomplishment on social media on November 22, 2022. Since the release of his fifth studio album, “More Love Less Ego,” Big Wiz has also sold out the Madison Square Garden in New York, the United States, achieving yet another historic milestone.
The music industry is in uproar as Blaqbonez joins BNXN in criticizing three strategies used by artists to boost their streaming numbers without attracting genuine listeners. Here is the rapper’s tweet:
Blaqbonez, a rapper from Chocolate City, has added his voice to BNXN’s criticism of the ways that artists and record company executives artificially boost music streams without attracting actual listeners.
Blaqbonez tweeted about it and stated: “All of you who use streaming farms will soon be exposed soon. awon hushpuppi”. This was in response to BNXN’s tweet in which he stated unequivocally that record company executives pay for music to be played on automation or robots in order to inflate streaming figures.
These tweets come soon after Ruger’s tweet in which he posed a riddle addressing a specific artist who employs influencer marketing strategies to keep a stranglehold on the scene.
Following his most recent cryptic social media post about artists, BNXN has launched further attacks on Ruger, a fellow artist.
Award-winning performer and singer BNXN, often known as Buju, responded to Ruger in a message he published on his social media account today, November 23, 2022.
Ruger had cryptically posted on his social media platform that some musicians force people to listen to their songs by using ads and by paying influencers to make the song popular on those platforms. The singer had responded to Ruger’s post.
His post read:
“I am something. For years now, I have forced my songs down people’s throat whether e sweet abi e no sweet either by too much ads or by paying every influencer to make noise about a song they don’t even like. Or by speeding my song on TIKTOK. WHAT AM I ?”
This prompted BNXN to release a reply in which he called the singer out and revealed that he also used this strategy to market his album.
BNXN’s post read:
biting the fingers of the hand that fed your boss enough to feed you ?? Even when you and your boss use the same strategy?? After all those streaming-farm payments?
Additionally, according to BNXN, musicians who work hard to create top-notch music don’t always get paid fairly. A few of the streams, he added, don’t actually result in fans attending the musicians’ shows.
His post added:
Be organic or get the fuck out of my face!! How you got a million views and less than 5k on Spotify ? Are you whining me ? You’re top of the charts and you’re not choking me in the streets like Asake? just tiktoks? Are you silly ?
The South African phenomenal rapper said that he declined two requests for features from the Ghanaian heavyweight rapper over a protracted period of time.
Nasty C, a powerful South African rapper, singer, and performer, explained in a recent freestyle why he declined to honor Sarkodie’s feature twice.
The talented rapper, who is supposed to be releasing his new album “the spank daddy” in 2023, explained in a violent freestyle on Metro FM why he declined a request to be featured by one of the best African rappers of all time.
Nasty C claims that when he was an up-and-coming artist, Sarkodie refused to shake his hand. As a result, he harbored resentment. By using lame justifications like “he was on album mode,” the Zulu man with some influence made it clear that he had turned down the feature requests twice. Nasty continued by stating that he is still a huge fan of Sarkodie and that he would do his absolute best to fulfill any future requests from the legendary rapper.
The viral video, which accuses Nasty C of disrespecting Sarkodie, has generated a lot of buzz. The young man, however, made it plain on Instagram that he has no animosity toward Sarkodie and was only using the freestyle to vent. He stated:
No Malice over here u promise you.. I had some shit to get off my chest that’s all. That’s how & why I make albums
