5 Star Music Record and Their Many Controversies

Skiibii is Dead, Skiibii dead, is skiibii dead, who is skiibii
By Nathan Nathaniel Ekpo

What could possibly be the challenges the artistes at Five Star record label going through? Virtually all the singers in that label have created one controversy or the other.

Let’s start with Kcee, while on popular programme with Toolz, ‘The Juice,’ he denied ever getting married to his estranged wife Ijeoma Cynthia Okonkwo (nee Oduah) and claims the woman is his elder sister. This got many talking and wondering what could possibly be wrong with the singer but the matter has been long forgotten.

Harry Song came up with his own tale in an interview which he denied that he was a product of incest. When the story trended and calls and comments were coming in, the singer denied the allegations stating that he never said such even threatening to sue the writer.

Well, thinking that all was fine with the singers as they seems to have been calm with their controversies, Kcee’s manager, Sososo Berekon, needed a hype for himself as he decided to share a picture of himself with some mobile men while having bottles of beer.

Now, the trendiest of all controversies is the records new artiste, Skiibii. The singer has been on some media tour trying to promote his new song and in other to have a quick wider coverage, the singer and his label team decided to stage a prank which got everyone in a sober mood when it was alleged that the singer is dead.

Even the label’s manager, Sososo Berekon shared a candle to signify that the singer had died. Within the space of about five hours, it became a trending issue only for many to be shocked at the latest news by Kcee that the singer was ok and only slumped but was recovering in an undisclosed hospital.

From the look of things, the stars in this record label just need to grow and truly define a strategic means of promoting themselves rather than set hearts pondering. Who dare jokes with death? With the way they have been pushing themselves with various controversies, their credibility will soon be in doubt.

Is this just a stunt gone too far? Because the singer just released a new track ‘Sampu’, and also released its video yesterday.

So, there seems to be a silent beef brewing between two of Africa’s Finest Comedians, Bovi and AY.

Apparently, Comedian Bovi shared a video from 8 years ago when he was obviously still a struggling upcoming Comedian.

He Shared the video with the caption:

Story story!!!! So one day Oga buy padlock con tell gateman to make sure say him daughter no comot for house. But the security man wondered how he was going to stop the girl once Oga left. Oga look gateman angrily and told him “use your head”. When Oga returns, he finds out gateman has finished his daughter with headbutt.. #orijinbitters #bitterlikethetruth #2008. #nightofathousandlaughs. Meanwhile check out my COAT

One wouldn’t understand the caption at first, but reading through the fans comments, you’d agree he threw a shade at someone. (Comedian AY – who apparently, had a Comedy skit related to his joke) Chill..

In the video he shared from 8 years ago, Bovi narrated on stage about how a security man had to headbutt his boss’ daughter all because his boss had earlier told him to use his head to prevent the daughter from going out.

In AY’s Comedy skit which he used to Promote his Event (Find the FULL SKIT here, AY tells his security man to ‘use his head‘ in a bid to stop his girlfriend from visiting him during his date with another lady. When the girl later came, the security man (played by Funnybone) man headbutted her.

Fans of Bovi agreed with the comedian that the skit was a rip off of Bovi’s intellectual property.

cai

In a preview for next episode of Caitlyn Jenner’s ‘I Am Cait’ reality show, Khloe made her debut on the show and it wasn’t a pleasant one as she confronted her step dad/mum over comments she made about his ex and her mum, Kris Jenner.

“We haven’t really gotten a chance to talk since you sent me all those tough texts,” Caitlyn says while wearing a blue sweater

“Kim said that you said they were tough and Kim read all of them and she was like ‘these really weren’t that tough,'” Khloé told Caitlyn.

“I just said ‘We don’t care what you’re doing.’ Meaning we don’t care if you want to transition. We want to support you and be there for you. But, we don’t think that that entails you speaking negatively about my mom. In our opinion, you don’t even need to mention my mom…let’s not drag my mom through the mud.”

Man United plot bid for Muller

<> on November 15, 2013 in Milan, Italy.

According to German sport news, Manchester United are plotting a bid of  £50m for Bayern Munich and Germany international Thomas Muller.

Reports in Germany say United boss Louis van Gaal is desperate to be reunited with a player he worked with while at Bayern Munich.

United have been linked with Muller for much of the summer and are hopeful that they can force Bayern’s hand with an eye-watering offer.

The problem they face is that the German giants are refusing to countenance a move for the player, who remains a key part of their plans

Bayern’s chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge reiterated on Thursday that Muller was not for sale.

He said: “Muller is not for sale. Our English colleagues seem to be unable to spend all of their money.

“It’s difficult. Everyone knows our old friend Louis van Gaal. He is very stubborn in those things.

“Maybe he thinks that there is a price where Bayern will start to ruminate but there is no price at all.

Ramos to sign news contract

Ramoscc

Spanish and Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos will now earn £6.42million a year after tax if his is to sign a new contract next week.

The Spain defender, 29, is set to pen a five-year deal to keep him at the Bernabeu till 2021.

Manchester United were keen to sign him this summer but a fee, despite Old Trafford bosses offering £35m for his services, couldn’t be agreed.

And Real have moved to reward Ramos for not forcing through a transfer

Reports clams that Ramos has two years remaining on his £5m post-tax current deal but Real are set to increase that by £1.42m a season.

That breaks down to just over £123,000 a week after regional and state deductions in the Spanish capital

Compare that to United’s offer of £7.85m a season, which would see Ramos take home £151,000 each week, and officials in Manchester must be stumped that they couldn’t secure the move.

But the true cost of this transfer saga for Real is only fully uncovered when you add the tax back on to Ramos’ proposed new contract.

“I have been working with Olamide, I designed the YBNL logo, I have done a couple of designs for the label before I got signed.” Adekunle revealed.

“When I dropped Sade, Olamide apparently liked it, and the whole YBNL crew liked it. So he called me and said he really liked my sound, and didn’t want it to change, that he would love to work with me. “I didn’t see it coming, I didn’t lobby for it, I didn’t do anything, I didn’t think about it at all.”

In contrast, the rest of the YBNL artistes are pacy rappers. The singer believes that there is a connection between his genre and indigenous rap.

“I guess it just works because I am indigenous too as well, I speak Yoruba, English, pidgin…and then my sound identifies with the street somehow. So there’s a sync somehow.”
