Emerging artists are essential in bringing new sounds and creativity to the constantly changing Nigerian music scene. One such rising star with the potential to leave his mark on the Nigerian Afropop scene is LB, who has a unique sound. However, in an exclusive interview with TurnTable Charts, you will get to know more about the artist, LB.

LB was greatly influenced by his family’s love of music during his formative years as he began his journey into the world of music. He was exposed to a variety of musical genres as a child, including R&B, Dancehall, Hip Hop, and Highlife, which sparked his love of music and gave him a means of self-expression.

Additionally, the church setting had a big impact on LB’s musical growth. He began playing the drums, but his Pastor’s wife eventually encouraged him to try singing. This transition marked the beginning of LB’s love affair with music and solidified his path as an artist.

LB is inspired by a wide range of musicians, including D’banj, 9ice, Ne-Yo, Sean Kingston, Wande Coal, and 2baba. These musicians, who work in a variety of genres, highlight his ardent love of music and the diverse range of sounds that have shaped his artistic development.

LB’s sacrifices to follow his passion for music show how committed he is to his craft. During his school days, he put studio time ahead of class, demonstrating his unwavering dedication to music. In order to share his talent with the world, he has put time and money into it as well as faced obstacles head-on.

‘Mula’ one of LB’s most recent singles, has achieved considerable success. The song offers listeners a delightful experience by skillfully fusing Highlife elements with Afropop and Pop melodies. “Mula” is a happy song honouring women and encouraging men to cherish and pamper them.

Encouraged by “Mula’s” positive reception, LB plans to make the song come to life with a music video that will be released later in 2023. In addition, he is working on an EP that will likely tease his expanding fan base with more great songs.

LB said that he would like to collaborate with musicians who inspire him when asked about his ideal projects. Victony, Oxlade, Burna Boy, Rema, 2Baba, 9ice, King Promise, and Sean Kingston are among the people on his wish list. Fans stand to benefit from these potential collaborations by receiving exciting music.

New artists like LB are poised to break through as the popularity of Afrobeats continues to grow on a global scale, bringing new sounds and vigour to the thriving Afropop scene. The journey of LB has only just begun, and his music promises to be a captivating addition to the ever-evolving Nigerian music landscape.

Veteran Nollywood actor Bob Manuel Udokwu shared his insights on the casting of British actor Idris Elba as Okonkwo in the upcoming adaptation of Chinua Achebe’s classic novel, Things Fall Apart.

During his appearance on The Morning Brief, Udokwu participated in a dynamic discussion about the current state of Nollywood and the significance of collaboration within the film industry.

When asked about the missing element in Nigeria’s film sector, Udokwu responded,

“Collaboration. I said this years ago that Nollywood has come of age; now we don’t have to do much to prove to the world that we have world-class talent here.”

Udokwu directly addressed Elba’s casting as Okonkwo. Although he expressed respect for the British actor’s talent, he firmly stated his position. Subsequently, he emphasized that numerous capable Nigerian actors could effectively portray the role.

Finally, Udokwu pointed out that these local talents deserve consideration for such significant cultural roles. Moreover, he suggested that the casting choice overlooks the wealth of acting experience available within Nigeria’s borders.

He explained,

“There’s this conversation about Idris Elba being cast as Okonkwo in the Hollywood make of Things Fall Apart and I don’t have anything against that as an actor but I think that we have people who are top-class actors in Nigeria who can play that role better knowing where that story is coming from but that’s another story for another day.”

Bob Manuel Udokwu emphasized the importance of collaboration among different film industries, noting that this trend is already emerging.

“What Nollywood needs now is collaboration and it’s beginning to happen. I happen to be part of another production that involves to major actors in India and another Hollywood-based actress. We need to have more collaborations with our counterparts in Europe and north America and it’s happening gradually. The bundle of talents we have in Nigeria is awesome,” he concluded.

Burna Boy responds to allegations of impregnating a lady | fab.ng

Controversy erupts as Burna Boy, the Grammy-winning Nigerian music star, confronts serious allegations from a woman named Stella. The accuser boldly claims that the globally renowned artist, whose real name is Damini Ogulu, abandoned her after she became pregnant with his child.

Stella’s detailed account came through a recent interview where she paints a picture of a three-year romantic relationship with the “City Boys” hitmaker. She describes how their relationship progressed to the point of pregnancy, emphasizing Burna Boy’s initial commitment to support their unborn child. According to her narrative, the singer’s attitude dramatically shifted, leading to his complete withdrawal from the situation.

The woman’s story takes an even darker turn as she recounts a series of unfortunate events. She describes a harrowing break-in at her residence, though she doesn’t directly attribute it to the singer. The accumulated stress from these circumstances, she claims, ultimately resulted in a devastating miscarriage of their unborn child.

Burna Boy responded to these allegations swiftly and unequivocally.

The African Giant, known for his unapologetic demeanour, categorically dismisses Stella’s claims. In stark contrast to her portrayal of their relationship, he characterizes her as a sex worker, specifically stating that he paid her 20,000 naira for her services.

The Grammy winner further discredits her by revealing that she belongs to a group of individuals who have previously made unfounded claims about his potency.

“Meanwhile this na of the first people wey call me impotent o. And Na 20k be her money that year normally of which I give am o. Abeg enter this comment section if you know this girl that year and confirm if I dey lie say na N20k be her money,” he wrote in a now-deleted post on his X page.

Toke Makinwa, a prominent Nigerian media personality, has recently used social media to highlight a problem that often arises in female friendships: the sharing of private information between friends and their romantic partners.

On October 9, 2024, this successful businesswoman took to Instagram to address her female fans, followers, and women in general. She emphasized the importance of exercising discretion and maintaining privacy within female friendships.

She began,

“I’ve got something very important to say but ladies, I’m going to eat you guys up on this video because it’s very important, so follow me as I go. My best friend contract is with you and I, not you plus your significant other. It breaks my heart to see many female friendships hit the rocks because of this mistake that a lot of us women make.”

Toke Makinwa urged women to shield their friends, even from their own romantic partners.

“I understand that he’s your guy and you guys are best friends and he has to know everything that is going on but if you love your friends and you cherish your friendship, I believe protecting them should come second to none, including that man,” she explained.

“If your best friend confides in you about something that she’s going through or something that is happening in her life, maybe about guys, your husband or boyfriend should not be privy to that information. Why? Because he’s not her best friend,” she added.

She highlighted that when a friend shares personal struggles, such as relationship problems or life challenges, those details should be kept confidential.

Makinwa concluded,

“Sometimes you wonder why your man would have an issue when you tell him you’re going to hang out with a friend; it’s the things you tell him! The same way you protect your man and don’t air his dirty laundry to me is the same way you shouldn’t do me.”
