OLUCHI by Solidstar ft Flavour

http://www.tooxclusive.com/2013/11/28/videosolid-star-oluchi-f-flavour/


         Joshua Iniyezo is a Nigerian dancehall artiste, producer and songwriter. He released his first hit single featuring Tuface - One in a Million in 2010 which I believe introduced him officially to the Nigerian Music industry.
        SolidStar as he's popularly called is known for releasing top notch videos and promoting the Nigerian language. With 3 major music videos such Omotena, Skibo and most recently Oluchi in his kitty, Solidstar has been able to prove his versatility and creativity. He is certainly not a one hit wonder.
       This multiple award winner is presently signed to Achievas Entertainment. He always brings to the table a distinctive blend of reggae, R&B and traditional African music, a factor that sets him apart.
 Oluchi which was released some hours ago is yet again something 'Fresh' from the 'omotena' crooner. I watched it and I must confess, it is very international.Oluchi from the video depicts a beautiful girl Solidstar is in love with.
       The video begins with Solidstar singing with his band while Oluchi, a young girl with a very captivating smile makes few apperances. I'm glad that the Oluchi is not scantily clad or wearing a suggestive outfit like many other videos we get to see these days, Thumbs up to the director and producer of this video.


 Solidstar swings the mic out, Flavour catches it, and Scene 2 begins with flavour and his own band singing his verse till he passes it back to Solidstar, joins him on his stage and they start to sing together.
       So I don't seem partial or make it look as if his video has no fault, here is one aspect of the video I have a problem with:
Enough with  the stage and band concept. Can we try to do something else,please. Its becoming cliché. As much as I believe he's trying to meet both the contemporary and international standard, this doesn't stop him from thinking more out of the box.
       Above all, its a great video, I like the moving/swinging microphone concept, #soft. I must also confess, Solidstar's stylist does a great job all the time. So from the depth of my heart I give the video 6/10 which I believe is above average.

   Don't forget to post your comments on this review. I'd love to read them.



Till next time, Live, Love and Learn.

LIVING IN LAGOS CHRONICLES BY YOURS TRULY

Its been a minute yeah, I know and I've missed you. After a conversation with some friends, I finally got inspired to write about one of my Living in Lagos Chronicles. As much as every memory of this incident surprises me, I find a reason or two to laugh real hard and even consider acting...lol. The initial plan on this fateful morning was to go to work as usual but then that bad angel whispered evil thoughts of where I could go to and would have more fun (unholy) obviously, #imnosaint!. So I changed routes and headed to ........... story for another day. I had enough opportunities to change my mind because I was so unlucky from the very beginning. First, I had to sit in a bus for 2 good hours trying to wait for passengers and of course they never came. I got impatient, got off the bus and went to some other bus stop. Luckily I found one, it took me to Costain. At least I was a bit close to my destination, Surulere. Then I began to wait again at the Costain ...

Mummy North!

Guys, I have come again o!. This time, its about a certain Mummy North. I will gist you all that happened since yesterday till now. Imagine how just a few photographs can stir up the world. Power of Social Media or perhaps InstaMedia (Instagram) So I was told Mummy North was on her own when Paper magazine walked up to her, requesting that she'd be the cover girl for their #breaktheinternet issue. As a sharp 34 year old nursing mother of Armenian blood, such an offer must not pass her by. Considering the amount she was going to get from it which by now we know would be no chicken fee.  My very reliable sources say it was actually Mama North that suggested the nude photos to The Paper Magazine.  Even its director told us that Mummy North said 'if we are gonna do it, let's really go there'.  According to him, it was Mummy North's idea to take off her clothes and show more butt. She was willing to take off her clothes.... Hmmmm, things we watch on TV. She must have...

#DoubleHustle - Banking meets Hair Fashion

It seems like everyone in Nigeria is an entrepreneur these days. Could it be some sort of trend that will phase out after a while, the liberating and elevating feeling it gives to be addressed as a business owner and an employer of labour? Maybe it is an attempt to break even in the current economy reality we are experiencing, or perhaps an effort to change the stereotypical impression that only white collar jobs are the best.
