on

Victony, Tempoe, Don Toliver, and Rema collaborated on the song “Soweto” remix, which has now reached a crucial milestone by receiving the prestigious #BRITcertified Silver certification. This certification is a noteworthy acknowledgement of the song’s popularity and success. It’s a credit to the exceptional musical talent and originality of these musicians that they have collaborated to create a track that has connected with listeners and amassed a sizable fan base.

The song has earned a significant level of sales and streams, according to the Silver certification, which further solidifies its status as an important contribution to the music industry. This success highlights the song’s significance and influence inside the music industry in addition to the artist’s commitment and talent.

However, an accolade and certification known as the BRIT Certified Silver is given to British music recordings that have attained a certain level of commercial success. It is a component of the British Phonographic Industry’s (BPI) BRIT Certified programme, which is a certification system for music sales and streams in the UK. The trade organisation that speaks for the UK’s recorded music industry is called the BPI.

A music recording must fulfil certain requirements, frequently connected to the number of sales, streaming, or downloads it has received in the UK market, to be awarded a BRIT Certified Silver certification. Depending on whether the certification is for singles, albums, or other sorts of music releases, the precise certification requirements can change over time.

Moreover, these artists are highly recognised and have made amazing contributions to the music industry. Victony is renowned for his distinctive fusion of hip-hop and alternative music. He became well-known in the Nigerian music industry thanks to his 2020 song “Maria” and the accompanying “Saturn” EP. Victony has received appreciation for his music’s storytelling abilities and lyrical depth.

Nigerian music producer and songwriter Tempoe has collaborated with several different musicians there.
He is renowned for creating popular songs and influencing the tone of many Nigerian music. Rema, a rapper and musician from Nigeria, rose to fame in 2019. He joined Mavin Records and put out his debut EP, “Rema” which featured the songs “Dumebi” and “Iron Man.” Rema’s distinctive tone won him praise from the critics and he is considered as one of Nigeria’s rising stars.

Last but not least, American rapper and musician Don Toliver is renowned for his melodious style. In 2018, he became well-known for his appearance on the track “Can’t Say” from Travis Scott’s “Astroworld” album. In 2020, Don Toliver published “Heaven or Hell,” his debut studio album, which featured songs like “No Idea” and “After Party.” For his contributions to the current hip-hop and rap scene, he has received appreciation.

Renowned music executive and record label boss, Michael Collins Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy, recently expressed disappointment over his current relationship status.

On Monday, he took to Instagram to share his desire to participate in the popular “suspect challenge.” This social media trend involves couples playfully teasing each other. However, the 41-year-old entrepreneur lamented that he couldn’t join in the fun due to his single status.

“Suspect wants to do suspect challenge but no suspect partner,” he wrote. In the accompanying caption, the music executive lamented that “it hurts.”

This isn’t the first time Don Jazzy has publicly discussed his relationship status. In 2021, he revealed that he married Michelle Jackson, a UK-based writer and model, at the age of 20. Unfortunately, their marriage ended in divorce after two years.

“I fucked it up cos I was giving all my time to my music. Music became a priority instead of my family. We got divorced when I was 22 and it hurt,” he said.

Earlier this year, Don Jazzy explained that he has not remarried as he is currently focused on personal growth and self-development.

“I dey work on myself so that when my head correct, my babe go enjoy me,” he wrote in pidgin English.

A few months ago, Don Jazzy made headlines when a foreign investor acquired his record label, Mavin Records.

In 2004, Don Jazzy and his former partner, D’banj, co-founded Mo’ Hits Records. Following its closure, Don Jazzy established Mavin Records in 2012.

Mavin Records has produced and nurtured a roster of talented artists. They include Tiwa Savage, Reekado Banks, Korede Bello, Dr SID, D’Prince, DNA Twins, Ayra Starr, Johnny Drille, Crayon, Boy Spice, Bayanni, Rema, Lifesize Teddy, and Ladipoe.

To commemorate his 37th birthday in 2019, Don Jazzy unveiled the Mavin Creative Studios. The studio is a multimillion-naira mansion serving as the label’s corporate headquarters.

Mavin Records has received numerous accolades, including two consecutive MTV Africa Music Awards for Best Record Label in 2013 and 2014.

The label’s artists have also collaborated with international music stars such as Beyoncé, Selena Gomez, Kelly Rowland, and Chris Brown.

Our Parent’s Generation Didn’t Support Their Children’s Talents – Phyno

Published

Phyno Says His Parents Didn't Support His Career | fab.ng

Nigerian rapper Phyno praised today’s parents for showing greater support for their children’s talents than the previous generation did.

During his interview on the In My Opinion Podcast, the renowned musician shared his personal experience. He revealed that his parents initially discouraged his musical ambitions.

Phyno explained that the current generation of parents is more understanding and open-minded about their children’s aspirations. This creates a more supportive environment for young talent to flourish.

“My parents didn’t support my career when I first started. It’s different now,” he said.

He added, “I think the generation after my parents understands what it means to support their children’s talent and knows that there is something special about a child who loves music, or a child who loves to play ball.”

The rapper compared the two generations. He emphasized how children in the past were often disciplined for pursuing their artistic dreams.

“Then, when parents come home and see you playing ball, they beat you and seize the ball and give you punishment. You understand me?” he said.

Phyno applauded today’s parents for identifying and fostering their children’s talents, be it in music, sports, or other fields.

“I’m just trying to say that era and this era are different. Now any father who sees his son can play ball and enrols him in an academy. Some, at 1 year old already buy you a ball and say you must play ball like Neymar,” he explained.

Phyno also acknowledged the shift in perception surrounding creative careers, saying,

“Different generations, you know and I also don’t blame my parents. I’m sure that the money in music now was never in music then. They also look at people who did music back then as useless people. As people who just wanted to carry dreadlocks and walk around. But now everyone sees the talent and a gift to be shared to the world, and shout-out to this era of parents.”
