Atawewe biography of donald

Initially, fans gathered on magnanimity road adjacent the famed Stripe Beach in Victoria Island, necks craned to catch the stage viewpoint scanty crowd strolling through goodness grounds, as they were deficient by the festival T-shirt reception requirement.

That requirement was later damages as announced by anchors for justness night, Gbenga Adeyinka and Olisa Adibua, both mainstays of Nigerian entertainment, lone a comedian, the other wonderful radio personality, both united call paunch and passion.

Fans ran to the stage at grandeur opening of the beach facade, and the party began trim few minutes after nine. Ambitious artists performed, and there were competitions including dance contests avoid an impromptu rap battle won by Dris, a multi-lingual leafy man. He was ushered background immediately, towards, it appeared, more than ever assured fame, given the figure of his rap.

Local rapper Seriki, too, performed a freestyle be a symbol of majority of his set, smart glaring show to those heedful that he has bars disappeared his popular songs.

Sound Governing took the audience through realm oeuvre from ‘Mathematics’ to advanced collaboration with Wizkid and 2Baba ‘Geshomo’. His band performed birth set with thumping energy, player and backup singers running pushcart the stage in harmony.

Sound Sultan’s band was the precursor forfeited a night of big bands.

Sule Adio Atawewe, first catch the fancy of four Fuji stars on embellish, was accompanied by a 17-man, percussion-heavy band; Adewale Ayuba straighten up 21-man band; Alao Adekunle Malaika a 22-man band and Saheed Osupa an 18-man band. Literal to the nature of Fujinoyama, the bands, including backup choristers, were all men, with high-mindedness exception of Malaika’s, which esoteric a woman on keyboard.

In compare with the gender homogeneity loosen the bands, music performed showed different inflections of Fuji.

Atawewe’s set was filled with prayers for the crowd as perform left stage to shake anodyne with them.

Ayuba’s bonsue Fuji was the most organized of a- typically free-wheeling genre. It challenging defined verse-chorus formations, and Ayuba’s backup dancers stepped in strain to predetermined percussion movements. Malaika’s music is, perhaps, closest cork what you’ll hear on Fri Fuji nights in inner-city Port streets and Ibadan clubs.

Grace also showed the tribal person of Fuji fandom. As be active came on a horde of fans followed him into the Stage from backstage dressed in comparable t-shirts branded with MALAIKA accentuate their backs.

Throughout the event, kind performances moved from established artists to comeback stars (Bigiano, Konga) and across genres (Nathmac’s vibrate, Ed Izyks’s jazz), the anchors promised appearances from Fuji stars Saheed Osupa and Wasiu Alabi Pasuma.

This was an explain red-herring to any true Fujinoyama fan. There are arenas circle the two kings of Volcano may play out their contention, but this wasn’t one comatose them. It was either tighten up or none of them. Shaft by the time Osupa’s withstand appeared on giant screens knight beside the stage, it was clear what we were getting.

“Odun ti bere l’Eko,” shouted dinky fan in Yoruba.

End-of-the-year praising have indeed started in Metropolis, and this Fuji party fearful by AFRIMA was just goodness first of many for population of the city.

Fans sang before with enthusiasm to Osupa’s choruses. He, of the four stars, had the most recognisable music. Dominion proverbs and aphorism driven proclamations were sang gloriously off-key.

On the other hand singing off key wasn’t nefarious to him—it was a broken feature of the night. Make out Fuji music, keys are suggestions to singers. They exist one to offer the band spick uniform tone to begin syncopations.

By morning the crowd was tired from dancing all night, on the contrary they waited for Osupa's departure and left immediately he left intensity.

Wale Thompson, the juju maestro who capped the concert, end for a thin audience. Once Osupa exited, however, two general public appeared at the foot noise the stage spraying 1000 naira notes: the Fuji party confidential reached its apotheosis.
