Love Meets Hate: Yawng Boss Serves Fans A World-Class Project

By


 


2020's identity had trouble written all over it; it was the perfect settlement for unimaginable realities. Even for an ultra-optimist, who relishes the protection of great prospects, 2020 proved that man's propensity to shed layers of hope in the face of uncertainties remains fixed. 
As we ruminate on the events of the year engrossed in a pandemic, we see our routines and needs either surviving on the back of improvisation and enterprise or facing annihilation for staying traditional. Apparently, the survival of the music industry depended on the choices it made with available options and, thankfully, it chose to survive.

As part of their allegiances to the industry's decision, artists the world over, galvanized by resilience and an availability of technology-aided tools of production, released projects. Indeed, in 2020, where the collapse of businesses littered headline news, the entertainment industry maneuvered its way to survival.

On home soil, obvious artists at the forefront of Nigeria's entertainment— Timaya, Chiff Timz, Burna Boy, Davido, CitiBoi, Quirries, Eddieroll, WizKid and Olamide—all lifted our spirits with their respective projects. 2021 is here, and the tradition is continuing.

Rapper Yawng Boss almost in an invader-like fashion, begins the year with a project titled Love Meets Hate. Love Meets Hate, a 6-track EP, housing promising singles and the best of collaborators from the South South, represents Yawng Boss' partnership with 2020 for inspiration and guide. It must be put lucidly, however, that while Love Meets Hate withdraws from the experiences of 2020, for the sake of relaying relief to the casualties of 2020's global movement, Yawng Boss' intent is rather to empower listeners than to push for an adulation of 2020. 

"The world is fucked right now, my country Nigeria is in a worse state, it is safe to say LOVE met HATE like never before in 2020. However, rapper Yawng Boss thought it wise to start off the year 2021 with some positivity, music to lift our spirit, y’all have a great 2021", says Yawng Boss via a press release.

Both sonically and creatively, Love Meets Hate meets every possible criterion on which music enthusiasts could pass an untainted judgement. Yawng Boss shows he now is a skilled driver of worthwhile content, rightly armed, and able to tap into the extremes of creativity without incurring dreadful consequences. 

Besides its pithiness-- which makes for easy listening--Love Meets Hate boasts an array of star acts, including Payper Corleone, El Vidal, Wuka, Chiff Timz, Kel Money and, obvious surprise act of the project, BigJ5.

Kvng KiLa: Manifesting Destiny

By
Image
  Artby   Goodluck Ataria "People see a marital union as 'being held down', but for me, it’s more like 'stepping up to the plate'...."    " W ho is KiLa ?" desperate for answers, a mother spoke in a quizzical tone for the umpteenth time. I couldn't consider her chivvying pointless nor adjudge it the backwash of her paltry understanding of hip-hop culture, which confers upon a participant free rein for inventiveness and coinage rights. Of course, given her son's passionate devotion to the 'tribe', its mores could have been revealed to her – that coinage is a tradition in the performing arts. Besides, not many artists hang on to a legal name. All the same, mama KiLa was worried, and deservedly so.  On another day laced with the appearance of routineness – a busy backdrop; pungent air due to burning refuse; and strange weather conditions that could make one doubt the legitimacy of a good weather forecast the day before – an event gave f...

Yawng Boss Talks Forthcoming Album (I Forgot To Love You), Family, Life and More In Exclusive Interview.

By
Image
Add caption Yawng Boss is your ideal representation of a superstar. Effortlessly, he wears the attire of celebrity. He's so careful not to dent it. When he speaks, his cadence gives inklings of, not where he is, but where he wants to be in years time, a place he ought to be. In his raps, his vocals scream: 'I was made for this shit'. His dress sense, however presented, is always fine-tuned to disclose his suave persona.  Yes, Yawng Boss is a star! He commands uncontested attention wherever he shows up; more than needed to build a solid fact about his artistic affluence, are a concrete proof of his ability to effect atmospheric changes with his presence. Yawng Boss is somewhat the opposite of what many emerging artistes are in that unlike most (emerging) artistes, who put a target to reach, before they feel sophisticated enough to display an ounce of eminence, he doesn't have to wait for the validations of a certain height in his career before he shows you this. Being...

Street Hop Solidifies Eddieroll's Position As King

By
Image
  Eddieroll is embracing individuality and success, but not without acknowledging their many faces. From facing difficulty finding his feet in Ghana to moving back to Nigeria to his involvement in the careers of artists of prospects (scoring a string of hits in the process), and from making an unbelievable switch from the behind-the-scenes guy to the artist whose days are now spent coveting fame, Eddieroll's string of activities to artistic dominance could be made into a blockbuster. For most artists, fame is the invaluable currency; for it allows them to gain entrance into territories previously unreached. Fame, as a means of exchange, allows for the acquisition of worthy valuables and, sometimes, it makes way for the acquisition of vanities. So far, however, Eddieroll's motivator is clearly the first point. When Wida You was released in 2017, none was ready for the havoc and the shift in culture it would put in motion. But years on, Eddieroll's fame and his wielding th...

Yung6ix Discloses How He Met Payper Corleone As He Premieres What If With Ijeoma Mbama On Rhythm 94.7 FM Yenagoa

By
Image
Payper On the 26th of April 2019, Rhythm 94.7 FM Yenagoa had rapper Yung6ix in an interview to premiere his new single "What If".   The interview which is part of Yung6ix's radio tour and was anchored by O.A.P., Ijeoma Mbama (I.J.) , had the rapper talking about the making of What If and his meeting with Peruzzi. Upon further questioning from I.J. the rapper revealed that the inspiration behind What If, although a product of a trivial studio session, was the search of mutuality in relationships. The video is just an expression of the song... when you have a beautiful girl you're crushing on, right? But she's more interested in what you have to offer, than what you really need from her — which is true love. This is what most of us guys go through these days. —Yung6ix The interview didn't end without an obvious question, one that has been on the minds of every Bayelsan entertainment enthusiast. I.J.: "Well, some people actually...

Yawng Boss Laments Over Delay Of 'Welcome To Yentown E.P.'.

By

Yawng Boss source: www.Instagram.com/yawngboss775 Rapper Yawng Boss couldn't hold back his frustration over the delay of his incoming E.P. 'Welcome To Yentown' which was originally scheduled for 1st of April 2019. The rapper has apportioned a certain amount of blames to his colleagues, who he claimed haven't been helpful. Yawng Boss' Post 1 By virtue of his Facebook post, one can deduce that things are not going as planned (at least, for now). The rapper who just dropped the visual of  'Retired Heartbreaker'  (one of the singles of Welcome To Yentown), did also give hints at his inability to have full access to the studio when appropriate, which, consequently has slowed down the album process. Yawng Boss' Post 2 We at Sleek Buzz are not yet armed with full information on this development, yet it's of the utmost importance for us to pray for him; and offer our assistance (whichever way we can). Yawng Boss' menta...

Retired Heartbreaker artwork Bayelsan rapper, Yawng Boss, who previously dropped '2019 Intro Freestyle (Road To #WTY Album)'  and 'I don't like these rappers' which features Abobi Eddieroll, drops a new music video titled 'Retired Heartbreaker' which features M2. Retired Heartbreak has the rapper explaining the impossibility of a relationship with any lady who's bent on winning his heart. The rapper gives such excuses as 'love for the bass, snare, kick and strings, giving his full attention only to his music hustle. Oh! And if anything should have him and these ladies in a thing, it's only sexual and no feelings involved. M2  laces a fitting chorus, and production credit goes to E- Brown Beatz.

#ThrowBackKiLa: Review Of Kvng KiLa's Dark Clouds

By

Add caption "Flow of Self-worth and Self-narrative: A Stylo-linguistic Appraisal of KvngKiLa's " Dark Clouds". By Nsikak Ekikor. Previous reviews on KiLa's musical oeuvre have largely neglected the concept of style and flow while striving to unravel their semantic import. For this critic, the restriction of musical analysis to its subject matter at the expense of style is not recommendable in that it is the effective manipulation of stylistic devices that lift an ordinary verse to its poetic level. Thus, it is unarguably that there is no true Hip-Hop without style and flow. Ipso facto, a thorough assessment of a rapper's song should embrace its propensity to good style and flow. To emphasis the preponderance of good style, an American Hip-Hop critic, Edwards P. in his publication entitled: "How to Rap": Chicago Review Press, opines that:           " It's all about styles, just the way you're getting           your subject across. If peo...
