Africa’s finest artiste, 2Face Idibia is scheduled to
return to the school circuits come 2013. This announcement was made at the
recently held Playas’ Ball event which held at Auto Lounge VI on the 9th
of December 2012. The end of year party was produced by Hypertek Entertainment
in conjunction with NM En.Core and was supported by Soundcity.
The
event was engineered to provide the artiste with a platform by which he could
show gratitude and appreciation to everyone who played a part in making the
2Face brand successful in the year 2012. More importantly however, he was able
to highlight his plans for the next year 2013 while taking time to interact
with people with the intent of fostering a relationship that would ensure
continued association and cooperation in the future.
Perhaps his
most important announcement of the night was his return, after a six-year
hiatus, to performing in the nation’s higher institutions. 2013 will see Idibia embark on a scheduled campus
tour that would see him visiting various tertiary institutions in Nigeria for
the first time in over six years. The announcement was met with cheers by
attendees at the event; a sure sign that 2Face’s return is a welcome
development.
A
2Face Campus Connect competition has been designed in order to make school
selection for the tour seem less of a task as well as to involve the
beneficiaries. Students are to visit www.2faceonline.com
to vote their schools as one of the six schools to be visited in this first
window of touring. The schools with the highest votes will automatically be
selected as the first port of call.
Without any
doubt the most accomplished artiste of his generation, 2Face Idibia put out his
first recording Body & Soul as a member of the trio Plantashun Boiz in
1999. Thirteen years later, having gone through more ups and downs to panic
even a seasoned stockbroker, the artiste has emerged a newer, stronger brand
winning several awards for all of his past releases. This year, he added
another album to his catalogue. The album is titled ‘Away and Beyond’.
‘Away and
Beyond’ is available in CD stores nationwide and also on Itunes online music
store.
