‘Keresimesi’ + ‘Mukulu’ By Skales

‘The world is a stage and I’m the main attraction‘ – Skales.
The last two years have seen a handful of new age rappers make their way to the fore front. While some like M.I, Ice Prince and Vector are already known round the country, a few others are threading the same path to prominence.
One of those ‘Freshmen’ is Skales. The Edo-born, Kaduna-raised rapper easily makes the ‘Next to blow’ list as he clearly shows his intent to dominate. His ‘Heading for a Grammy‘ single created buzz for him and signing with E-M-E has certainly given him  a head start in the race to relevance.
Skales clearly makes his intention on ‘Keresimesi‘. Spot-on lyrics and commendable delivery added with a catchy hook, this kid knows how to make a hot joint. His draws his inspiration from the forthcoming Christmas celebration and is smart enough to keep it at two verses.
On ‘Mukulu‘, Skales takes another route. While this single will confuse his Hip-hop fans, it will be accepted on the local front. There is however a very big similarity between his sound and that of his label mate, Wizkid. One would think Wizzy ghost-wrote the song for him.
Both songs were produced by Sarz (‘Joor oh, Joor Oh remix). Very good work

Kate Henshaw Nuttall Finally Divorce her white Husband

Star actress Kate Henshaw Nuttal,and her better half of 12 years, Roderick James Nuttal are no longer together!

The award-winning Nigerian actress and her British husband parted ways amicably a few months back following ‘irreconcilable differences”.

Those who know the actress and her beau claimed the separation was not bitter at all-and now they live apart(though in the same area of town in Lagos,the Lekki axis).

Blessed with a daughter, Ella who’s now 11,the couple’s lifestyles made it impossible for them to enjoy marital bliss.While Kate,now 40,is a very busy actress,moving from one location to another(across the country and sometimes abroad),and honouring endorsement engagements,Rod,also in his 40s,is the Managing Director of Ledrop Nigeria Ltd(agents for Jack Daniels and Piper Hiedsieck champagne) constantly travels.

Since both are hardly together to savour companionship,their relationship suffered strains-and after looking at the situation,they first decided to try separation and see if they could later patch things up.But they did not succeed.

But at this time,both had agreed to move on for the sake of their daughter and in loving memory of their 12-year union.

And soon,they will be heading to the courts to formalize their separation.We gathered that Kate and Rod are talking to lawyers and in no time,the divorce suit,which many close friends and associates expect to be amicable will begin.

The actress refused to make elaborate comments on her husband and her marriage....

The contestants on probation

There apparently seems to be no end to the drama and intrigues that have characterised this year’s MTN Project Fame West Africa, and avid watchers of the reality show are in for a surprise as three, as opposed to the usual two, contestants on the show would be facing eviction this week!
This decision was taken by the judges of the show in a bid to get the best from the contestants and up their ante as they felt the pace of performance was a bit slackened.
Entertainment boss Kwame, one of the judges on the show summed up the feelings of the judges when he told the contestants, ‘You all did well with your performances but we are looking for the best in you all. I believe some of you have gotten too comfortable in this competition that is why we, the judges have decided to put seven people on probation today instead of the usual six to go on probation.
‘With this new development, three contestants would be sent home from the project fame academy instead of two contestants next week. By doing this, we believe that you all would realize that this is a competition and you have to fight to win the grand prize’, he added.
Just last week, Aziga and Zaliha were evicted from the competition.
The contestants on probation from whom the three evictees would be drawn from this week are; Emmanuel, Joba, Racheal, Roy, Princess, Chidinma and Ruth.
