Mo hits and G.O.O.D Music star D’banj added a new Aston Martin Vantage to his already crowded garage. The Vantage was said to cost him a whooping $200,000. Unilag students however could not hide their jealousy, spraying the car with water when he came to perform in their school.
US R & B singer Keri Hilson on Saturday tweeted about a Nigerian song she was listening to where she heard “Lick your speakers” continuously. A little FBI detective work I did showed that D’banj’s latest rave Oliver Twist had the word “Lebete” which literarily means “lick your slippers”. Anyway we’re glad Nigerian music found it’s way into Keri Hilson’s bedroom.
Singer Darey Alade and Jodie topped the nominees list for the upcoming Nigerian Music Video Awards (NMVA) scheduled for the 27th of November,2011 at Eko Hotel & Suites.
