KCEE - I Am Very Stylish, Can't Do Without My Studs

Image
How many Jesus piece chains do you have? I have just one and it is very precious to me. I got it in Spain when I went there to shoot the video for my new song, Okoso. I can trade it for money anytime. It is like saving my money. I got it but it was quite expensive. I will not say the price so that I won’t be attacked. I have been robbed several times. I’ll not want to expose myself any more. What is that fashion item you cannot leave home without? I can’t leave home without my earring (studs) for both ears. I don’t know why, but that is something I cannot leave home without. I don’t joke with it. I wouldn’t want to mention how much it costs. I don’t like mentioning figures but they are pretty expensive. Why I love them so much I don’t know. Even if you come to my house in the morning, I would put my studs on first before I come downstairs to see you. I have over thirty of them.  What influences your sty

One half of the multiple award-winning P-Square, Peter Okoye, last Tuesday, shocked many of his fans when he finally proposed to Lola Omotayo, his long time friend and mother of his two kids (Cameron and Aliona) with a diamond ring and a brand new white Range Rover Vogue. The proposal put to rest the widespread criticisms that have trailed their relationship over the years. Lola, who said ‘Yes’ to the proposal, reportedly was close to tears when the musician slipped the diamond engagement ring into her finger, and handed the car keys to her. Peter, who didn’t give Lola prior notice of his plan, visited her residence with the car and parked it inside her compound. On the bonnet of the vehicle, he also dropped a rose flower and a love car

Celebrated entertainer D’Banj might face the biggest crisis of his career thus far as his blood brother, Kayswitch, who is signed on to his record label, DB Records, is said to be seriously considering dumping him because he is fed up with how D’Banj keeps projecting himself first . The grapevine has it that Kayswitch is seriously considering becoming independent of his more acclaimed elder brother and mentor and striking out on his own to finally achieve the genuine music success he hasn’t under D’Banj’s tutelage. Kayswitch’s dissatisfaction with the antics and strategies of the Don’t Tell Me Nonsense singer, D’Banj, is said to have come to the fore over their label’s debut album, D Kings Men. Being a compilation album, DKM should h

While it is no longer news, that Star Boy, Ayo ‘Wizkid’ Balogun, will not be headlining this year’s edition of the annual Nigerian Breweries PLC sponsored musical concert roadshow, Star Trek, the main reason why the artiste was dropped has been revealed. Inside sources privy to how the recruitment and negotiation of fee for artistes for the concert are conducted said that the inability of the organisers and WizKid’s managers to agree on performance fee led to the musician’s absence from the oldest musical concert in the country. The source said that WizKid was offered N3 million per show and allotted four shows which would have seen him pocket a grand sum of N12 million but his managers allegedly turned it down on thegrounds that it was too small for the highflying artiste. The original aim of turning the offer down according to our source, “was to force the organisers to increase the amount to N5 million per show. However, the marketing strategy backfired as Nigerian
