| TheYoung, Rich Rulers Of Naija Music (Wizkid,Olamide,Ice Prince,Davido and more) Posted: 30 Sep 2013 07:22 AM PDT  A new generation of artistes are rocking the entertainment scene and smiling to the bank, JAYNE AUGOYE reports A wind of change is currently blowing across the music industry in Nigeria. A new order championed by young, vibrant and talented artistes has emerged. Rather than curse the day that their children decided to embrace a career in music instead of education, the parents of these wave-making artistes are pleased with the success they have achieved. Today, the young artistes are giving the older and established stars a run for their money. These new-wave superstars now rub shoulders with the same artistes whom they once looked up to or chose as role models. Apart from competing with the 'old guards' in terms of income and expenditure, they are often nominated for major music awards in similar categories. Multinationals and telecommunications outfits, as well as other major events sponsors, have realised that the younger generation of music artistes represent the future of entertainment in Nigeria. With a good number of them aged between 20 and 25 years and a few others barely clocking 30, the sky seems to be the limit. Many of the emerging stars are not just rich; they flaunt their wealth at every given opportunity. It seems that the rewards for their modest efforts at making many Nigerians happy are without limit and they always come in the form of luxury mansions, sold-out concerts, huge fan base, state-of-the-art cars, bestselling albums, multi-million naira endorsement deals, chattered flights, big budget videos, custom-made outfits, 'bling bling' and generous airplay on terrestrial TV stations. Usually dressed in sagging pairs of trousers with expensive jewellery around their necks, many of them charge as much as N1.5m to mime to their songs for only 10 minutes at wedding parties or concerts. Many of them had to drop out of school to pursue a career in music. E-Punch presents six young music stars that have taken the music scene by storm. Wizkid At 23, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, a.k.a Wizkid, leads the pack. A string of endorsement deals, including one from MTN, has placed him on the list of big earning music artistes in Nigeria. At present, he is the highest paid Pepsi Ambassador in Africa and he lives in a N140m choice home in Lekki, Lagos. Wizkid's personal cars include a N14.6million Porsche Panamera, Rolls Royce, N10m BMW X6, N6million blue Volkswagen convertible and a Hyndai Sonata. The talented singer, songwriter and performer has emerged one of Nigeria's hottest music acts, seven years after he broke into the Nigerian music scene. The last child in a family of six, Wizkid began to sing at the age of 11. Like new wine, his performance matured with age. His talent has taken him to different parts of the world and seen him perform alongside world class artistes, such as Chris Brown, Akon, and Young Jeezy, and Kardinal Official. The young man's fortunes improved in 2012, a few months after he released his Superstar album. As expected, his rating soared in the same year and he was named the second most influential Nigerian artiste on Twitter, an enviable position which clearly reflected his growing popularity. Wizkid's position on the African music chart was further justified after he made it to the Channel O/Forbes List of Bankable African Artistes. Mentioned alongside big weights like Don Jazzy, Psquare, D'banj, he was placed ahead of Tuface Idibia, on the list. Early in the year, he threw a free appreciation party for his fans at the New African Shrine. He has the BET, MTV, Channel O, Ghana Music Awards to his credit. Olamide Olamide Adedeji, aka Badoo, has succeeded in filling the vacuum created by the death of rap sensation, Dagrin. The alternative rapper, who has redefined the word Razz as the new cool, has been dubbed the 'king of the streets. He recently signed a multimillion naira endorsement deal with the makers of Ciroc Ultra Premium vodka. For the self acclaimed 'Voice of the Street', who grew up in the Bariga area of Lagos, fame did not come cheap. He fell in love with rap music at a tender age and was always visiting renowned producer ID Cabasa's music studio in his school uniform. Today, Olamide hobnobs with some of the industry big names, especially D'banj. Pictures of both artistes surfaced online and their close relationship gave room to speculation that he had been signed on to the seld-styled Koko Master's record label. The rapper's hit songs comprise Jale, Street Love, Jesu O kola, Durosoke, Stupid Love, First of All and Ilefo Illuminati. His forthcoming album titled 'Baddest Guy Ever Liveth' will be released in October. Today, the 24-year-old star acquired a brand new 2013 Range Rover Sport. He also topped the winners list at the 2013 Nigerian Entertainments Awards in New York, US, with three awards. Ice Prince Twenty-six-year-old Ice Prince lives like a true superstar. A proud owner of a 2010 model of Bentley GT, a Range Rover SUV, among many others, the Chocolate City Records 'golden boy' is also a BET Awards winner. Since his first single 'Oleku' was released, he has witnessed a meteoric rise to the top. He gained international recognition after beating 2face Idibia to the Best International Act Award at the BET Awards. He recently relocated from his apartment in Palm Groove Estate, Lagos to a bigger apartment in the Ogudu area, after completing a mansion in his hometown, Jos. The buzz around him got louder after he appeared in Yvonne Nelson's 'House of Gold' alongside Ghanaian actor, Majid Michael. Dammy Krane At 19, this 2face Idibia protégé is the youngest of the pack. He hit the limelight after signing on 2face's Hypertek Records in 2012. He started singing when he was eight years-old in the toddlers' choir in church. By the time he clocked 11, he was already a back-up singer for other artistes. His mum, who is currently based in the US, manages a number of Fuji artistes. Long before he put out an official single, music video, or inked a record deal, he had over 4,000 followers on twitter. With his hit singles, My Dear and Ligali, the artiste known for his melodic voice, engaging lyrics and exciting genre of alternative music has collaborated with the biggest names in the industry. Burna Boy Burna Boy made newspaper headlines after reports emerged that he sold the marketing rights to his debut album, 'Leaving an impact for eternity' for N10m to popular Alaba music and movie marketer, Uba Pacific. The album is also said to have made a record sale of 40,000 units on the day of its release. The singer has the backing of his grandfather, Benson Idonije, who was the manager of the late Afrobeat legend, Fela Kuti. Burna Boy officially broke into the music industry in December 2010 when he moved back to Nigeria from London and has remained a household name in Port-Harcourt. But, it wasn't until June, 2012, when he made a cross-over to the Lagos music scene with his mid-tempo Summer Jam, Like to Party. He is a Globacom Ambassador. Davido At 20, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, is one of the most popular young artistes in Nigeria. The singer drew the attention of millions of music fans when he introduced himself as Omo baba olowo in his hit song titled Dami duro. Translated from Yoruba to English language, it means 'son of a rich man'. Davido, whose father, Dr. Deji Adeleke, is the chairman of Keplo-Pacific Energy Pacific, a company that is involved in banking, steel, power and energy, found his way to the top as if with the snap of a finger. The youngster, who is not afraid to boast about his father's wealth, always causes a stir on Twitter with his controversial tweets. So far, he has won some international awards and performed at various shows within and outside the country. He is also the face of MTN Pulse. Davido's personal collection of exotic cars comprise a silver 2012 Honda Accord, a 2012 Hyundai Sonata, which he won for being 'Next Rated' at the 2012 Headies, a N12m 2012 Audi Q7, N17m Chevrolet Camaro and a N21m Mercedes Benz G55 AMG, his fifth car since he shot to fame last year.

| Posted: 30 Sep 2013 07:05 AM PDT  Making a surprise appearance in The SCOAN, Nollywood actor Jim Iyke entered quietly and unannounced, joining worshippers from around the world as they listened to the inspiring message from renowned Prophet TB Joshua during the service on Sunday, 29 September, 2013. As The SCOAN's Wise Men moved through the congregation in prayer, the lightning of God located Iyke and he was no longer able to control himself. Lunging towards one of the Wise Man as if to attack him:  An evil spirit that had been tormenting the life of Jim Iyke manifested! The congregation in the auditorium and the overflow congregations shouted in surprise as they began to witness the deliverance of a man they were all too familiar with. The evil spirit that had tormented the life of Jim Iyke for so many years confessed that it was the cause of his setback and disappointment. It confessed that it was the reason he could never marry, stating that it would not allow him to love anyone. It continued confessing that Iyke was the biggest and that it was only God's grace that had kept him. As the evil spirit inside him struggled to attack the Wise Man, the supremacy of the Holy Spirit continued to overpower it. The deliverance continued but the battle was not against flesh and blood; it was against the spiritual entities that had been causing crisis in his life, family, health, career and future. To the jubilation of the congregation, the name of Jesus Christ prevailed over the evil spirit and Iyke received his freedom. Overwhelmed with what had just happened, Iyke immediately knelt in God's presence, appreciating His Creator for his miraculous deliverance. Hallelujah! Jim Iyke, born James Ikechukwu Esomugha, is currently one of the highest paid actors in the Nigerian movie industry and cultivated the name "Nollywood bad boy" for himself. As one of the most successful actors, he has starred in over 150 films to date. He has launched his own film production unit, "Untamed Productions" and his own music label, "Untamed Records" with his very own album, "Who Am I?"He is also founder of "Jim Iyke Foundation", contributing funds to children of the less privileged and children with physical challenges. Among his movie awards are: The Teenage Choice Award; Best Actor In Nigerian Entertainment Award; African Achievement Award; Best Actor of the Year (Mode Men Award 2010); Sexiest Man In Nigeria 2008, Best African Actor (NET Awards). The humility demonstrated by Jim Iyke in submitting himself to the power of God should prompt others in his industry to make the same life-saving choice.   Recommended for you:  |

| Wickedness! 20-Yr-Old Jealous Ex-Girlfriend Sets Rival On Fire For Snatching Her Boyfriend (Photo) Posted: 30 Sep 2013 05:11 AM PDT  A 20 year old girl allegedly set ablaze the 22 year old new love interest of her ex-boyfriend. Cynthia Onah reportedly went to her ex-boyfriend's house at Onugba Nike area in Enugu State late at night with a gallon of fuel and emptied its content on Chinwe Igwe, her ex's girlfriend, who was sleeping. The incident took place on August 24th. The Commissioner of Police Enugu State, Mr. Mohammed Adamu described the incident as very unfortunate. "It is terrible that a girl because of jealousy would set another girl on fire simply because they are befriending the same boy." CP Adamu explained that on that fateful day, Cynthia had in connivance with another suspect, one Obiora Chukwuegbo stormed Chika's home and set Chinwe on fire. It was only the assistance of neighbours that Chinwe was rescued through the window as the fire consumed the room. She was said to have been taken to a private hospital before she was transferred to Annunciation Specialist Hospital Emene, Enugu State where she is still receiving treatment. The boyfriend, Chika told Sunday Sun "I am a driver and I've been dating Chinwe for the past five years. We had little quarrel and we stopped dating. I meet Cynthia who is a prostitute and dated her for just one month. We separated one month after because at times she would be chasing me with a knife. I couldn't bear it and so I went back to settle with my former girlfriend. Cynthia didn't give up as she threatened that she was going to deal with us. She even threatened to pour acid on me. Being a driver, I travelled the day Cynthia burnt my girlfriend. It was one of my neighbours that called me to say that my house was on fire and that somebody poured fuel under the door and it exploded and burnt my girlfriend who was sleeping in the room; that they have rescued her through the window. "When I got home, I saw that all my property had been burnt to ashes. My girlfriend was hospitalized because she sustained injuries from the fire. But I am determined and I have promised God that with the condition of my girlfriend that I am still going to marry her."The suspect, Cynthia, who hails from Isi-Uzo Local Government Area of Enugu State, said "I started dating Chika when he had misunderstanding with his former girlfriend, Chinwe. We dated for one month and then he told me that he was no longer interested in marrying me. Chika is owing me N12,000. When we had a quarrel, I did not threaten him with a knife. I only used the knife to deflate his tyres. "I have quarreled with Chinwe several times. I sent her a text message to leave my boyfriend. Because she threatened me, I also threatened her that she will never enjoy the relationship. I don't know anything about who took fuel to the house of her boyfriend and burnt the house. On that fateful day, Chika called my phone at night and said that I should meet him at Emene junction. I was out waiting for him when the policemen from the State CID arrested me. I didn't know anything about the incident. I only know we have traded words."When Sunday Sun visited the victim at the Annunciation Specialist Hospital Emene Area, Enugu State, she said: "I am still shocked at what happened. I regret dating Chika as I have been turned to something else now. I saw Cynthia Onah and Chukwuegbo Obiora after they had poured fuel under the door and fire was everywhere. I was calling him for help. It was when I was calling for help through the other window that I saw Cynthia Onah and Obiora Chkwuegbo running away and I was shouting for help until the neighbours broke one of the windows and carried me out from the window", she said. "My relationship with Chika is over. I am in pains and agony. I didn't know what to do. I was sleeping and suddenly I saw smoke and it exploded and caught fire. I could have been burnt to ashes if not for the neighbours who broke through the window and rescued me," she added.CP Adamu said the suspects would soon be charged to court.  |

| Posted: 30 Sep 2013 01:37 AM PDT  Wise man Daniel had laid hands on Jim Iyke and immediately, the evil spirit started manifesting, confessing through him.
