Abuja ROCKED! That summed up proceedings at the third edition of the Amstel Malta Showtime.
The
event, which was anchored by Darey ‘Art’ Alade, was held on October 26,
2011, at the ThisDay Dome, Abuja. It was an explosive affair which saw
top musical stars including M.I, Banky W and Wiz Kid performing before
an ecstatic audience. There was hilarious comedy from comic Buchi,
while ace dance group, Dance Na The Main Thing, entertained the
audience with their breathtaking dance routine.
The
occasion also featured a special talent hunt where wannabe superstars
slugged it out in singing, dance and comedy competitions. Samuel
Falowo, 19, a 100 level student of the University of Abuja emerged as
winner in the singing competition while Martins Currie, 23, a 200 level
Fine Art Student of Delta State University clinched first place in the
dance category. Martins Neboh, a 25 years old graduate of Mechanical
Engineering, from the Enugu State University, also won first prize in
the comedy category.
The winners in
each category got shopping vouchers worth N100, 000, a laptop and a
special trip for two in Lagos as first place prize. In addition to
their prizes, the winners were also given the opportunity to perform
with the stars that performed that night. The runners up did not go
away empty handed as the first runners-up got shopping vouchers worth
N50,000, while second runners-up were awarded shopping vouchers worth
N25,000.
Speaking after the event,
Samuel Falowo, who won in the singing competition, expressed gratitude
to Amstel Malta for the opportunity to display his singing talent. “I
would like to say thank you for Amstel Malta for this opportunity.
Everybody had fun today but for me, the opportunity to show what I can
do before such an audience is something I will appreciate
Amstel Malta for, for the rest of my life. Before Amstel Malta
Showtime, I never really had an experience like this, so you can
understand where I am coming from,” he said.
He
also talked of the experience of performing alongside M.I. ‘’It is
unbelievable. I can’t imagine that I just shared the same stage with
M.I, the best rapper in the country. It is really mind blowing,” he
said.
Echoing
Falowo, Akwa-Ibom born Martins Currie described Amstel Malta Showtime
Abuja as the biggest moment of his life: “This is by far the biggest
moment of my life as far as my dancing talent is concerned. I can’t
describe everything that has happened to me. I want to commend Amstel
Malta Showtime for putting in so much effort in organizing an event
such as this,’’ he said.
Martins
Neboh, from Enugu State, winner of the comedy category, also praised
the organizers for giving him a chance to display his comic skills.
According to him, he had failed to progress beyond the audition stage
at the Enugu edition of the event but he decided to come to Abuja to
try his luck. “I was unsuccessful at Enugu last month at the Amstel
Malta Auditions so I decided to come over to Enugu to try my luck. I
just want to thank Amstel Malta for the opportunity to showcase my
talent,’’ he said.
Also speaking
during the event was Mrs. Adedoyin Owotomo, Brand Manager, Amstel
Malta, who described the event as a successful. “I think this has been
a successful event. The members of the audience have had a nice time
and I am impressed with the performance of M.I and others,” she said.
Continuing,
Owotomo added that the event would serve as a platform for future
superstars. "Beyond the entertainment and glitz, let’s not forget that
was a platform for future superstars. For some of them it is probably
the biggest experience they have ever had and for others it’s their
first time before such an audience. So if Amstel Malta has been able to
motivate them to chase their dreams then we have achieved our mission.
What Amstel Malta is doing is giving them the opportunity to be the
best that they can be,” she said.
Amstel
Malta Showtime, Abuja was the third in the series, having being held in
Owerri, capital of Imo State and Enugu State, in August and September

The brothers who were signed by the singers havveAjayi left the lael to float theirs
By adewaleconcept Nov 06, 2011 - 8:25pm WAT
Peter and Emmanuel Ajayi a.k.a The Ajayi
Brovas have left the Alapomeji Records and now operating their own
company - ‘Sistas Brovas‘ in partnership with NuGreen Media
Entertainment Outfits. Ajayi Brovas have not been living with the singer

Don Jazzy: How the Dentuncan Mighty and Terry G deal w wrong
Mo' Hits producer and CEO Don Jazzy spoke on the meeting with Duncan Mighty that almost got him signed to the label.
Q: Was Duncan Mighty ever on your label?
I like his music and he’s talented. And everybody knows I like to
attend concerts. Once anyone has good music, I’ll be there to support. I
didn’t get that much love from artistes when I was growing and I would
have loved that. If I could attend Tuface, Daddy Showkey’s concerts,
that’ll encourage us to move on. I also give them advice on a daily
basis. So whenever I see someone with good music, I go all out to
support him and it doesn’t have anything to do with competition.
Anytime my boys go to perform in Port-Harcourt, they always tell me
that those guys there love Duncan Mighty. So I invited him to Lagos and
he came to the house. I told the boys that I’d like to work with him. We
had a meeting and I wanted to sign him or do a promotion deal with him.
And since he’s also a producer, maybe he’ll be as a sort of co-producer
for my label to help reduce some work load. But now, the same thing
that happened with Terry G at some point happened. Because if it’s
Mo’hits Records, everybody gets excited.
We haven’t signed any deal and he went ahead to tell people that
he’s been signed to Mo’Hits. I was in America when I read on the
internet that Duncan Mighty has been signed to Mo’Hits Records. And I
hadn’t made up my mind yet about him. When I read it, I had to deny on
the internet. I was hoping that after I’ve signed him, then I could tell
everyone about it, but he took shine away from me. I called Bankuli and
asked how the gist came about. I was told he’d already granted
interviews saying he’s been signed on by Mo’hits to work as a producer
and vocal coach. I ended the deal.
Q: What about the JJC thing?
We were working together but had a misunderstanding. I don’t want to
start defending myself or say it’s his fault. I’ll gain nothing by
putting him down.
Michael Jackson's doctor Conrad Murray guilty of manslaughter
Dr. Murray now faces up to four years in prison and the suspension of his medical license.
By Adewaleconcept Nov 08, 2011 - 12:41am WAT
Michael Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray, has
been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter. The Texas physician who
administered a powerful surgical anaesthetic to Michael Jackson hours
before his death in 2009 was convicted of involuntary manslaughter today
following a six-week trial in which he was slammed for his
"unconscionable" professional behaviour and neglect of his celebrity
patient. The jury deliberated for six hours on Friday then two hours on
Monday before returning their unanimous verdict against Dr Conrad
Murray. He now faces up to four years in prison and the suspension of
his medical license.
Murray showed no emotion as the verdict was read. The news was
greeted with enthusiasm by a noisy group of Jackson supporters outside
the courthouse who spent the morning chanting "Justice for Michael!" and
"Find Conrad Murray Guilty!", some waving banners praising Jesus
During the trial, the jury heard how Murray abandoned his practice
to work exclusively for Jackson for $150,000 per month, how he ordered
gallons of the surgical anaesthetic propofol in response to Jackson's
complaints about insomnia as he was preparing for a new world tour, how
Murray administered propofol on the morning of Jackson's death and –
according to the prosecution – was directly responsible for delivering
the final, lethal dose.
Murray's defence lawyers tried to argue that it was Jackson himself,
not Murray, who administered the last injection and that the Jackson
family, the prosecution and the public at large had been over-anxious to
find someone on whom to pin blame for the star's self-inflicted death.
"If it were anybody else but Michael Jackson, would this doctor be
here today?" Murray's lead lawyer, Ed Chernoff, asked in his summing up.
The jury's answer to that question was, apparently, yes; that Murray
had behaved in ways no doctor should ever behave. The defence did not
dispute that Murray was responsible for propofol being in Jackson's
home. And they did not dispute that Murray left Jackson alone after
administering a dose of it on the morning of his death – even though
standard medical practice insists on an anaesthesiologist or qualified
technician remaining at the patient's side at all times.
David Walgren, the lead prosecutor, argued that Murray was
criminally responsible for Jackson's death, whether or not the jury
believed the story about Jackson grabbing a syringe and essentially
killing himself. Just getting him close enough to propofol and giving
him the opportunity to take it unsupervised, he said, constituted
involuntary manslaughter on its own. He called it an "obscene
experiment".
"This is bizarre, unethical, unconscionable behaviour," he said in
his own closing statement. "Michael Jackson trusted Conrad Murray. He
trusted him with his life; he paid with his life."
Walgren highlighted the many inconsistencies in Murray's public
statements, the fact that it took him two days to acknowledge to police
that he had administered propofol, the delay in calling emergency
services after Jackson's lifeless body was discovered on his bed and
other damning details. "Conrad Murray did not call 911 because he had
other things on his mind – to protect Conrad Murray," Walgren charged.
Ultimately, though, the trial revolved around the testimony of just
one witness, the research anaesthesiologist Paul White, who testified
that he found the defence's theory persuasive. Intriguingly, that put
him directly at odds with a colleague and former student, Steve Shafer,
who was the government's star expert witness and asserted that the "only
scenario" accounting for Jackson's death was that Murray put him on an
intravenous propofol drip which was then dismantled before the cops
arrived.

King Sunny Ade, born September 22, 1946, is a popular Nigerian Jùjú
music artiste and a pioneer of modern world music. He has been classed
as one of the most influential musicians of all time.
By OnTV Publisher Nov 04, 2011 - 5:46pm WAT
Adé was born to a Nigerian royal family in
Ondo. His father was a church organist, while his mother was a trader.
Ade left grammar school in Ondo under the pretence of going to the
University of Lagos. There in Lagos his mercurial musical career
started.
Sunny Ade’s musical sound has evolved from the early days. His
career began with Moses Olaiya’s Federal Rhythm Dandies, a highlife
band. He left to form The Green Spots in 1967. Over the years, for
various reasons ranging from change in his music to business concerns,
Sunny Ade’s band changed its name several times, first to African Beats
and then to Golden Mercury.
In the 70s and 80s, Sunny Ade embarked on a tour of America and
Europe where he played to mixed audiences. His stage act was
characterised by dexterous dancing steps and mastery of the guitar. Trey
Anastasio, American guitarist, composer and one of his devout
followers, once said,
Sunny Ade’s music is characterised by, among other instruments, the
Talking drum - an instrument indigenous to his Yoruba roots, the guitar
and his peculiar application to juju music that would easily put him in
the same class as guitar musicians like Santana. His music is in the age
old tradition of singing poetic lyrics, (“Ewi” in Yoruba) and praise of
dignitaries as well components of “juju” (traditional African belief)
called the “Ogede”-”casting a spell”. Hence, Adé’s music constitutes a
record of the oral tradition of his people for posterity.
Sunny Ade was the first to introduce the pedal steel guitar to
Nigerian Pop music. He was the first to introduce the use of
synthesizers, clavinet, vibraphone, tenor guitar into the juju music
repertoire such as dub and wah-wah guitar licks.
After the death of Bob Marley, Island Records began looking for
another third world artiste to put on its contract. While Fela Kuti had
just been signed by Arista Records, producer Martin Meissonnier
introduced King Sunny Ade to Chris Blackwell, leading to their release
of Juju Music in 1982. Many music aficionados are quick to point out
that Sunny Ade’s brand music of Juju could not be ignored by anyone at
the time. Today, this seminal recording is often acclaimed as one of the
most important records from Africa. Ade gained a wide following with
this album and was soon billed as “the African Bob Marley”.
Sunny Ade has said in the past that his refusal to allow Island to
meddle with his compositions and over-Europeanise and Americanise his
music were the reasons why Island then decided to look elsewhere.
Sunny has collaborated with major artistes such as Manu Dibango (WAKAFRIKA) and Stevie Wonder (played harmonica in Aura).
Sunny Ade’s brief recordings with Island records opened the
floodgates for other world music artiste like Senegalese Youssou N’Dour,
Mali’s Salif Keita and a host of others.
Twice Grammy Award Nominee
In 1987, Sunny Ade returned to international spotlight when Rykodisc
released a live concert he did in Seattle and was given an astonishing
embrace by fans across the globe that were eager for another
international album release.
He soon employed an American manager, Andrew Frankel, negotiated
another three album record deal with the Mesa record label (a Division
of Paradise Group) in America. One of these albums was 1998’s Odu, a
collection of traditional Yoruba songs, with which he was nominated for
the second Grammy Award and thus making him the first African to be
nominated twice for a Grammy.
In the 80s, Ade embarked on a career in Hollywood. His music was
featured in the 1983 film, Breathless, starring, Richard Gere, and the
1986 comedy, One More Saturday Night, and he acted in Robert Altman’s
1987 comedy O.C. and Stiggs.
At the beginning of another round of tour of the United States and
Canada, Sunny Ade, now known as The Chairman Nigeria, was appointed
visiting professor of Music at the Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife.
In July of the same year, King Sunny Ade was inducted into the Afropop
Hall of Fame, at the Brooklyn African Festival U.S.A. He dedicated the
award to the recently deceased Michael Jackson.

Nicki Minaj is one of the most successful women in hip-hop so it’s hard
to imagine the singer ever wanting to take her own life. Minaj told
Cosmopolitan magazine that she thought about suicide before her career
took off saying, “At one point, I was, like, ‘What would happen if I
just didn’t wake up?’ That’s how I felt. Like maybe I should just take
my life? I would pray to god to make me famous so that I could buy my
mother a huge house.” Thankfully, Nicki is alive and well and probably
more famous than she ever dreamed. She’s featured on the new Willow
Smith track, “Fireball,” which is out now.
