Popular Nigerian artist, named TIMAYA reveals who he can call a Legend in the Nigerian music industry


Timaya has revealed that it is only Innocent ‘2baba’ Idibia that can call himself a legend among the active artistes in the Nigerian music industry.


The ‘Bam Bam’ singer frowned at the situation where artistes start referring to themselves as legends after making music for 10 years.


Timaya made the comment during a radio interview with SoundCity FM.


He said: “In this part of the world, many artistes when they get to 10 years, they start shouting ‘I’m a legend’, ‘legendary’.


“To me, in this industry, the only person that can call himself a legend is 2face. The others shouldn’t. Even if people call me a legend, I don’t like to be seen like that.”


The dancehall star maintained that he is still the king of commercial music, saying, “the crown never leaves. I am Timaya anytime any day, 13 years is not three years.


“People don’t understand that making a hit song doesn’t mean you are a star. Stars always shine, some people can make a hit song and you will never hear of them again. There’s no year I’ve never dropped a hit song.


“I don’t want to be number one. I just want to be a musician. A lot of people have come and gone but I’m still here.”


Timaya also gave his take on the issue of marriage, saying he is not predisposed to an elaborate ceremony.


He said: “I don’t really go for weddings like that. I like the private marriage.


“If I want to get married, I will not do a big gathering. One thing is to get married, the other thing is to stay married. Staying married is the hardest part.


“Do you know what it means for two people with different upbringings to come and start staying together? That’s not a joke.”

father allegedly shot dead in front of terrified school children as he waited to pick his son from school

dad was fatally shot in front of terrified school children while waiting to pick his son up from school Jim Donegan, who is in his 40s, was sitting in his car at 3 pm yesterday, waiting for his son, when he was shot dead at point-blank range in Belfast. He was shot as many as five times in what was branded a "gangland-style execution". Police are searching for a man in his 40s and wearing a high vis security vest. A security source said: It was an execution in broad daylight. A man shot while waiting in his car - that is for all intents and purposes a gangland-style execution. It was up close, personal and point blank. You have to ask, was the shooter wearing that vest to blend into his surroundings? It’s been planned and thought through. The normal dissident shooting would be a hit-and-run. And would any dissident Republican groups risk an own goal, not just outside a school but also at kicking out time? It’s not their style. This...

Vinnelsblog -  October 12, 2018 Obasanjo, Atiku’ll fail together, says Presidency The Presidency has described former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s endorsement of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Atiku Abubakar, as ‘predictable U-turn and somersault that is not surprising’. It said the duo would fail together. Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, in a statement, declared that Obasanjo and Atiku would lose together, describing the endorsement as ‘well-rehearsed theatre.’ The statement said: “They will lose together. Listening to the prepared statement of the former President after the meeting showed the usual ego trip and I-know-it-all character of Chief Obasanjo. “In the first place, we dare to say that a pompous statement from the former President advising Nigerians on a vote against President Buhari is the best recommendation that can come at this time. ...
