Starboy entertainment act L.A.X drops new jam ‘Fine Boy’ with YBNL boss Olamide produced by label mate Legendury Beat.

After three successful singles ‘Caro,Ginger and Morenike’ L.A.X drops a new one as well as the visual directed by Unlimited L.A.

Enjoy

London based artists Krept and Konan have featured Davido and Wizkid on their new released single, ‘Freak of the Week’. The track features other stars like Ice Prince, Fuse ODG and Jeremih.

Its quite a rare occurence to see these two guys together especially working on the same track which gives credence to some speculation that we might be seeing a Davido and Wizkid collabo at some point.

Krept and Konan are known for making an impact on the UK underground scene with their music, punch lines and metaphors and as of October 2013, the duo signed a record deal with Virgin EMI Records.

Fast rising Nigerian rapper – “Falz The Bahd Guy” has just dropped the video to his latest single Karishika. The horror themed visual features popular rapper Phyno and comedian Chigurl. Falz who is very popular on social media, especially on Instagram for his funny skits has been putting a lot of effort into his music lately, which seems to be paying off for him.

As expected, Falz infuses his usual comedic accent in his lines while Chigurl closes the video with her signature humorous expressions which have made her also quite popular on social media.

 

On the back of the recently released hit song “Bobo“, Olamide has decided to dazzle us with the video to his hot track “Melo Melo“, produced by Pheelz. This video is quite interesting in that the song has a traditional yoruba folk flavour to it while the video features a very traditional ballet dance session with white English dancers. This draws a very amusing metaphor watching two traditional art forms fusing together. Melo Melo is definitely going to be around for a long time as much as Olamide.

The video is directed by Moe Musa and set in a London warehouse.
