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.

Asoebi: Felicitation or Burden?

It's the start of the weekend and boy am I excited.   I can imagine you on the other hand have an event or a list of events lined up to make your weekend interesting. I'm just going to be in my room, on my bed, sipping cocoa, indulging in my favourite pastime activity; blogging, reading and listening to classical music, don't hate. #noteverytimeturnup. But for now, I'll share with you a little something something. So, as I stepped out of church on one sunday like that, I bumped into a childhood friend. Looking at how grown she looked made me realise I don old sha! If you are a catholic like I am, you will agree with me that not all your catheticism classmates remain in the fold as you grow. Many will leave to find their salvation elsewhere, personal reasons or relocation. This was why I was shocked when I saw my old friend. What had she come to do, I quizzed my mind. Then it occurred to me that only one thing could bring her back, at this time. Wedding?

Random Musings: Clearly I Am Not Just A Fat Ass

Lately I find myself listening to different genres of music. From rock, pop, country, jazz and and and. So I have just being a music whore trying to find the one I'm most comfortable with.  Of all the genres of music I have been experimenting lately, Soul tops my list. Now Soul is believed to be music for only mature minds, whatever that means! I have even been told that you need to be of a certain age group to understand the message that lies in soul music. Honestly, I couldn't disagree more.
