The
Nigeria music industry should be prepared for what seem like one of the biggest
comebacks in history. With Uber-talented pop star - Sean Tizzle ticking all the
boxes and gradually easing back into spotlight. From a very successful sold out
appreciation concert for his fans at The
New Afrika Shrine boasting of some of the finest industry players in
attendance. His recent Single "LOTTO"
is currently dominating the airwaves, he is also set to release a befitting
visual to it this week.
Everything seems to be pointing towards the right
direction for Sean Tizzle since he
resurfaced few months ago after going on hiatus.
Arguably with one of the biggest Albums of the last
decade, and with over 15 hit singles to his credit, it’s safe to call his
comeback a return from sabbatical, when asked about his more than a year
absence from the industry, he said it's not completely true. He spent part of
the time touring in the US while also working with some creative people which US based Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer, Tory Lanez happens to be one of them
and a lot yet to be unveil. Moreover, change of environment is needed sometimes
to clear the head and further hone one's skills.
His fans should also be expecting a body of work which we
are privileged to listen to, we can assure you it’s a material that can stand
at par with the JOURNEY Album.
Also, on the cover of Acada
Extra is Naira Marley who is currently
in a case with the EFCC and been
remanded at the prison pending the next hearing of the case.
In the US, Nigerian-born student, Tobechukwu Philips smashed 125-year academic record of her high
school by having straight As all through her stay and eventually graduating
with a 6.9 CGPA while being the
first black valedictorian.
Meanwhile Unilag
Student, Funke Ademola-Aliu also wins gold at Future Creative Leaders Academy. The program which is designed to
test students’ general understanding of advertising has been on since 2008. And
courtesy of the Advertising
Practitioners Council of Nigeria, Funke is expected to attend the Rogal Hatchuel Academy in Cannes, France
in June.
These
and many more are some of the juicy stories to expect in this forthcoming
edition.
