DOKTA FRABZ AND DAMILOLA PURPLE IN NEW YORK CITY
BROOKLYN BRED FILM AUDITION IN NEW YORK CITY (PICTURES)
JAJ, TOOLZ, ELDEE, DAREY, OTHERS SPEAK ON D'BANJ - DON JAZZY SPLIT
Here’s what some of key industry players have to say on the shocking development… We’d love to know what you think too.
Terry Tha Rapman: Well, first of, I don’t want to believe it’s true. Who knows it might be a publicity stunt. But if it’s true, then it’s sad because they were about to make history with the alliance with G.O.O.D Music. Now Mo’Hits’ fans are torn apart and it might affect both of them.
M-Trill: I think it’s a sad development not just that they split but the way they did. I wish it was more cordial. Now, I have renewed my respect for Kenny Ogungbe and D1. I wish them both the best…
Demola Ogundele (Notjustok): The split is sad. The good thing is that they are still both alive and have the opportunity to drop music that we can still enjoy. The bad thing is that we won’t get to enjoy the Synergy and the magic they have created together in the past. I wish them both blessings as they move on to their individual goals.
Evaezi: I’m genuinely speechless and sad. They made a great team… Their chemistry was unbelievable…and you could feel it in their music. As for the effects, I honestly don’t know. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
Cyrus Tha Virus: I really think it’s not as bad as a lot of people are making it out to be; both parties have paid their dues together as a formidable Mo’Hits entity. Now I guess it’s time for chasing separate personal dreams; what it portends for the Nigerian Music industry? I guess we will now see a lot of the other ‘labels’ struggling to become the number one label in Nigeria and I can’t wait to see what Don Jazzy and D’banj can do separately.
Goldie: I feel it’s very sad, especially as together; they were a force to be reckoned with. It’s hard to imagine how each would cope without the other.
Princess: They are both roles models to a lot of people. They should sort out their differences but not break up
Overdose: Both men are grown and make decisions. I don’t think it has anything to do with other people making music.
Aremu Afolayan: a fan of them. I don’t know what their problem is. They make a hell lot of money from us Nigerians. They should call themselves together and settle it. It’ll affect a lot of things in the industry.
OC Ukeje: The music industry will do well with or without them. They will need people. Don Jazzy has an advantage over him as a producer and singer.
Olisa Adibua: The industry is bigger than them. So it can’t affect them. It’s time for the industry to get more people. The artistes under the label won’t suffer, just that the friendship between the two will. They might come back again like the Beatles
Jacob Akinyemi Johnson: Well the truth is I don’t have all the facts about the matter yet, and as such I can’t really speak on it for now. Don Jazzy and Dbanj are both my friends so I have to be careful what I say about it for now.
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu: It’s hard to react yet because we’ve not heard from D’banj yet, but in all I think music has gone beyond individuals, it’s not the end of the world. The good thing is Don jazzy has said he’s gonna continue doing music and D’banj too will continue, though maybe on an international level, but at any rate, I think they will continue doing good music.
eLDee: I don’t see any negative effects on the industry. I think they are going to continue to do good music as long as they are active. It’s just unfortunate things turned out this way and I wish it wouldn’t have come to this. I’ve been through this before and I can tell you it hurts. But I wish them the best.
Damilola Purple: I was surprised and its a big blow to the music industry... i wish them well and i hope to see alot of new things from them separately in the nearest future.
Toolz: I think it’s sad because you really can’t talk about Nigerian music without mentioning them. However, I see it as a whole new chapter for the artistes on the label and I also think that won’t stop them from doing music.
Steve Babaeko: Unlike most people my focus is not on the split but the outstanding contribution that both Don Jazzy and D’banj have made and are still making to Nigeria’s music industry. Change is part of this game, sadly so. In a country where millions of young people are struggling to find their voice, these gentlemen not only found theirs they spoke eloquently about the courage, perseverance and creativity of Nigerian youths. I wish both of them good luck in their future pursuits.
Olumide Iyanda: Well I think it definitely has affected the music industry, I was there when the whole thing started in 2004. Anyway, for now, let’s see how the whole thing goes.
Segun Demuren: I think it’s a shock, especially coming on the heels of a major international deal, I wish it didn’t have to happen this way. Don Jazzy is probably the best producer in the country right now, and D’banj, in spite of what people may say or think, I mean, I know he drew quite a lot of criticism on twitter and the like, but he is one of the most electrifying performers anywhere. I think they will both go on to do very well in their careers.
Modenine: Well I’ve known D’banj for quite a while now, more than 10 years ago, and I’ve also met Don Jazzy as well and we all know they are both an award winning team. I’m not about what went down and all of that, but It’s unfortunate. I do wish them well though.
Obi Asika: I was extremely sad to see Don Jazzy’s tweet today. I just want to salute Don Jazzy and D’banj and the entire mo hits crew, amazing memories! I pray that the personal relationships can be repaired and wish both Don Jazzy and D’banj well. They made history don’t forget it! Sad News!
Illbliss: It came as a shock. They made great music as a team but then that’s the music business. Life goes on uninterrupted.
Darey: It’s pretty sad to hear that because they are all my friends. I hope everything turns out for the best

You will be missed – Dolly Parton
She was just a gift in voice. She was just so innocent in the business, and that voice was so pure and her life was so pure. That’s what I’m holding on to. I think what we’re going to do in the long run of her life story is focus on the voice. Not the tragedy, but the voice.- Lionel Ritchie

I truly, truly adored Whitney Houston. Her album ‘I’m Your Baby Tonight’ was the very first album I ever bought.- Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child
Without a doubt, her voice, for me, and for the world, was the gold standard. She had it all, she broke all barriers.- Tommy Mottola, former chairman and CEO of Sony Music Entertainment
The morning of the Grammys, the world should pause and pray for the memory of a gifted songbird.” – Rev. Al Sharpton, who called for a national prayer to honour Houston and support her family
Whitney was the reason many of us do what we do. – Pink
At the apex of her career, Whitney had no peer, with a voice that shaped a generation. She has left behind a musical and film legacy that will endure…. she will be sorely missed by us all. – Bishop T.D. Jakes

Just want to be happy — Mr. Raw
I want to be happy and to make other people happy because that is what I do through my music. If people are happy, I am happy as well. I hardly spend the Christmas holiday with my family because this season demands us (artistes) to be every where in and outside the country performing.
Don’t mind a Cadillac — Oritz Wiliki
I would not mind a Cardilac even if it is 2005 model or a junior hummer. since I can not afford it, I wont mind if someone gives it to me. I spend my holiday at home because my friends usually visit.

I want a relaxed and enjoyable Christmas in Lagos because there is a lot of stress in the country at the moment. And after the Christmas celebration, I will travel tomy home town, Ogidi in Anambra State with my family for the new year.
There are functions to attend, I will also see my aged parents and connect to my roots.
Rice, Stew and Chicken is it — Mc Shakara
I want a Toyota highlander, rice,stew, and chicken. I will want a car because am tired of the one am using because it’s old. There is usually no holiday for me because it’s going to be work, work and work all through. From now till the end of the year, I will be traveling to five[5] different states in the country for events. Also, I will be in Port- Harcout on 25th for Crack Ya Ribs.

A new Range Rover — African China
If I can get a Rang Rover sport 2012 for a gift, it will be perfect for me. My Christmas is hooked. I have a lot of activities starting from the Governor dinner party at Owerri, followed by Caniriv at Port-Harcout and lots of weddings to attend. It’s party time and it promises to be prophetic.
CELEBS RECOUNT MEMORABLE CHRISTMAS EXPERIENCES (YOU MUST READ THESE)
Damilola Purple and Tonto Dikeh
Stella Damasus
I was seven years old then. They took us all to my mother’s village in Owerri. We had a singing competition and I won. The rule was that every household must give me a gift. I got so many gifts than I could handle. That was so memorable.
Francis Duru
As a child, my father would always buy a big cock and would eat special Christmas rice with us. Another memorable experience was going to the church to watch Baby Jesus in a manger and attend Christmas carol. Times have changed, what children want now isn’t what we wanted as children. Things have changed.
Uche Jombo
December 28 is my birthday, so every December is always memorable for me. I don’t separate one from another. I mark my birthday and Christmas in December and, as far as I can remember, they have always been memorable.
Bhairay
Coming from an upwardly mobile family, everyone is so busy and on the go, even at Christmas. So, a couple of years ago, my mum sent me a flight ticket to come home as something serious had happened. Of course, I got into the next flight only to discover it was a prank! And she had sent every other person a return ticket as well just to get the family together for some great thanksgiving and family home-made meal!
Ali Baba
The first Christmas that Xqzmoi, my event centre hosted, besides being fully booked from November 23, 2006, till January 16, 2007, just to see a dream come to life, brought tears to my eyes. I’m working towards another project that would open in February 2012.
Segun Arinze
Being alive every Christmas is always very memorable because God kept me alive by His grace and compassion! I thank him for sustenance of life!
Blessing Egbe
My funniest time of Christmas was way back in the police barracks when the eve of Christmas was a big deal. We would stay up till the break of 25th, decorating the house and going from door to door singing carols in groups. And D-day it was a do or die matter to compare and flaunt your new Christmas dress, wear new shoes, hairdo and earrings. And after visiting every family friend and relation, we would retire to a home full of presents and gifts as compared to who got the most. And on the 26th, all boxes and presents would be opened.
Tonto Dike
My favourite memory of Christmas when I was a kid are new clothes, shoes, jewelleries and I would be unable to sleep at night (eve of Xmas) out of joy, because I couldn’t wait for dawn so I could bathe and slip tiny me into my new outfit to show off in church the next day (December 25th). Christmas was so much fun as a child.
Basket Mouth
My favourite Christmas memory is awkward, it was in 1999, we left school for the Christmas holiday and decided to spend it with my manager back then, Bayo Adekeye, in his home town (Ile Oluji) in Ondo State. His parents were not supposed to be around, but we were surprised with their presence and had to sneak out of the house to squat with some of his friends. It was the first and last Christmas I didn’t eat the traditional Christmas rice and stew. Didn’t even get a Christmas gift; it’s the one Christmas I would live to remember.
Damilola Purple
Its a different ball game now, before i used to watch Tv after church (Xmas Day), my food will be served and i dont have to do anything, i dont have to buy or cook anything... BUT now.. It is OYO (On YOUR OWN). Alot of responsiblity like i have to make sure my siblings are okay and with the fact that you have to make sure your girlfriend or fiancee looks good... mehn.. i wish i can go back to my old to life where i dont have to do anything... Lol.. i am enjoying my life now anyway
Monalisa Chindah
Christmas season brings forth the beauty of Christ, love and salvation. Spending precious moments with my diamond, Tamar, last Christmas left a soothing and lasting memory in me.
Denrele
My unequalled, unparalleled and unrivalled Christmas would be the very first time I was away from my family during Christmas! Christmas is always with family and I delight in trying to harass the daylight out of them, especially my dad, my sisters and my uncountable cousins!
The memorable Christmas would definitely be in 2008 with P-Square as we invaded Lusaka, Zambia. It was the final leg of their African tour and I was opportune as a media personality to tag along and report the whole event for Soundcity. The whole Zambia besieged us at the airport! We practically had to change hotels like four times, and for every radio interview we did, there were boundless crowd waiting for us outside!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
Merry Christmas to you all. Thanks for making DPB No.1
May God shower blessings upon blessings on you all and your families.
Have a fantastic Christmas celebration. Kisses to all!

MY FATHER ADVISED ME TO MARRY SOMEBODY THAT IS TALLER THAN ME... COMEDIAN JULIUS AGWU (PHOTOS)
The joy of it is the fact that I have a song where I was educating people not to underrate small people.So,many of us who are diminutive are good men.
For Instance,the Group Managing Director of Diamond Bank,who is also a graduate of UNIPORT.He made first class.He’s short but that doesn’t stop him from being a great man.
I did a song with M.I, Jesse Jagz entitled Brief Big Men (BBM) where I was praising short people.
The truth is I enjoy people say my wife is taller because it will help my children to be tall,so that people won’t start calling my generation,short.
Great things come in small packaging. El-Rufai, Nuhu Ribadu, Adams Oshiomole,etc are brief but they are intelligent and brilliant.
