by Dele Momodu By Dele Momodu Fellow Nigerians, please let’s leave politics for this week and discuss my primary constituency, showbiz. I’m always happy to see young people break barriers of poverty through creativity. This is why I have invested materially and otherwise in our talented youths since 1989 when Sir Shina Peters broke record... Read More

by Lekan Olanrewaju It’s quite the exciting start to a week if we ever saw one! After the seemingly never-ending saga regarding the Mo’ Hits break up, top Nigerian producer Don Jazzy has announced the launch of his new label, Mavin Records. The label has on board former Mo’ Hit’s all-stars Wande Coal, D’Prince and Dr Sid as well as none... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju A couple of days ago D’Banj finally broke his silence over the much talked about Mo Hit’s break up. In an exclusive interview with NET Ng, he said: “Don Jazzy was no longer comfortable. You know, we were like fishes out of water, in this new system, starting all over again, like when... Read More
Yes, we’ve all seen it, talked about it, tried to analyse it, laughed at it, and whatever else we could do with it. So let’s check out the top ten tweets on D’Banj finally breaking his silence on the Mo Hits break up. @Lagoshunter: I can see DBanj’s P Setting value rising rapidly. I can... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju So by now we’ve probably all seen and read the exclusive interview D’Banj granted theNETNg titled “How Don Jazzy Betrayed Me” and decided if we’re going to remain Team Don Jazzy or jump ship to Team D’Banj or just wish them both the best and go on not caring about the whole...

by Chi Ibe I have spent the past two days looking at those vicious leaked emails between D’banj and Don Jazzy. (See the leaked emails HERE) Both of them have had the chance to speak, but none has denied the authenticity of the emails – so that’s is not in doubt. But looking at those... Read More
by Hauwa Gambo So this morning, emails emerged that were purportedly leaked from exchanges between Don Jazzy and D’banj, former Mo’Hits Records heads who have now gone their separate ways. The vicious back and forth made it clear the two young men won’t be back together anytime soon. Most striking were claims of Dban’j’ buying multi-million dollar... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju For any who have been paying attention (not that anyone could possibly overlook it if they tried), the Mo’ Hits break up saga has been one hell of a roller coaster—and that’s only been from information visible to the public. So we could only imagine just how much more insane it would be behind... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju No, it’s not Don Jazzy again! It’s Don Jazzy long before he was Don Jazzy. The producer extraordinaire is pictured above during a birthday celebration as an infant. It’s a tad weird, really. He’s one of those people who seem like they were never babies. Sorta like they just randomly begun to exist... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju “we’d planned what we were going to do with the one million naira sef” It’s Don Jazzy Again! Well, you know how that goes. The popular producer recently sat down for an interview with Hip Hop World where he spoke on such issues as his beginnings in the United Kingdom, and how... Read More
by Henry Okelue I have read with interest the many articles that have found their way onto the internet about the travails of Mo’ Hits records, with titles like “Mo’Hits Break up, Why Don Jazzy Stands to Lose”. The coincidence in title and sense of these articles has led me to one, possibly subjective, conclusion,... Read More
by Wilfred Okiche Forget the D’banj/Don Jazzy separation and all the brouhaha about who may or may not lose out. On second thought don’t forget it, (how can you anyway?) just stop thinking about it for some minutes to remember these 5 other music superstar teams that hurt us with their eventual break up(s). The... Read More
by Tolu Orekoya D’Banj Vs. Don Jazzy: ‘Ye’s history of wreaking career havoc continues While the Nigerian blogosphere is agog with talk of the supposed break-up of Mo’hits Records as Don Jazzy and D’banj squabble over dividing the baby that is the American breakthrough, we all seem to be forgetting the Solomon in... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju Finally someone else from the Mo’ Hits crew has broken his silence over the recent “break-up” saga that’s been playing out. Following Don Jazzy’s lead and taking to twitter, Dr Sid on Monday morning described the producer as “the most important piece of Mo’ Hits” and went on to say he “doesn’t get... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju From Fernando Torres finally ending his 5-month goal drought to more on the Mo’ Hits break up, check out what had everybody talking on twitter yesterday. @ged: Praise the Lord! Fenando Torres has finally located the goal post. [the news reaches Barcelona] – http://t.co/2liHDzzA @maryero: The day Mo Abudu allows her guests... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju So I read my colleague’s piece on Don Jazzy being the one to lose in the Mo’ Hits fall out and I had to scoff. As expected, my eyes were subjected to opinions, in agreement or otherwise, from people who believe there’s some form of glory in pretending to be the online... Read More
by Chi Ibe Okay, first let me say I am firmly #TeamDonJazzy. Well, not really. I am #TeamMoHits. But if (perhaps, when?) D’banj and Don Jazzy do finally – officially – break up, I am unquestionably #TeamDonJazzy. So, understandably, now that he is being played as the underdog in the unfolding drama over a rumoured...

by Hauwa Gambo This whole story is clumsy – so clumsy that even the artistes under the Mo’ Hits label (one of whom we have spoken to on condition of anonymity) are not exactly clear what is going on; unless this particular artiste is part of the cast in a complex mind game produced and... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju In a new twist to the saga of sorts that’s been playing out for the past few weeks, the Nigerian music industry’s worst kept secret has received confirmation; or so it would seem. By now we’re probably all aware of the rumours of a split between top music duo, Don Jazzy and... Read More
by Hauwa Gambo So you remember that story, yeah? The one about D’banj and the now-famous interview with Ebony that we broke in Nigeria first and that got @DONJAZZY trending on Twitter? Yes, that one. Well, as it so happens – it never happened. After Nigerian media culled the interview and a frenzy ensued on... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju From talk on certain perplexing quotes from D’Banj to thoughts on Nigerian online commenters, check out what had everyone talking on twitter yesterday. @ogundamisi: With the list of committees so far, fault me if I say we need 17 days prayer vigil, 1 month dry fasting 4 GEJ. Mr President is NOT... Read More
by Hauwa Gambo We told you! Two weeks ago we shared the story about a split between Nigeria’s hottest music ‘couple’ and some you doubted it, but now it’s (well, almost) official we’d say, something is amiss in the house of Mo’ Hits between D’banj and Don Jazzy. (See the story HERE) But don’t take... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju Rumours of a split between popular collaborators Don Jazzy and D’Banj are now being reported to be untrue. According to a report published by Ascology, D’Banj laughed off the news, saying that such rumours popped up at all times. Don Jazzy is also said to simply be out of the country on... Read More
by Lekan Olanrewaju In an article published Monday by the Daily Times, it is being reported that popular collaborators Don Jazzy and D’Banj are on the verge of parting ways due to “creative and personal differences”. Don Jazzy is said to have moved out of the mansion they once shared at Lekki and refuses to... Read More
by Wilfred Okiche When it comes to entertainment, fame is often misconstrued for power. Thankfully we know the difference. While having an instantly recognizable face or a world famous brand may get you into all the swanky parties in town, you need more than those. We are talking raw, unadulterated power, the kind that seeps... Read More
by Seyi Lawal Producer and head-honcho of Mo’Hits records, Don Jazzy has released a statement clarifying comments credited to him in the most recent issue of Hiphop World magazine. He was reported to have dismissed rappers and opined that no Nigerian parent was proud of their rapper offspring. The backlash was swift and came from... Read More
by Daniel Essien MoHits have released a video clip for D’banj’s song, ‘The Entertainer’. The four minute-long video is essentially a compilation of some of the superstar’s concerts and tours, with appearances by Kas, 2face, Chris Aire, Snoop Dogg, etc, highlighting his skills as an entertainer. The song is from the Kokomaster’s third album which... Read More
