After introducing himself to a wider audience through Ozedikus’s viral hit Ifeoma, 20 year old singer-songwriter BoiGizmo returns with a vibrant new single that’s all his own. Titled Fefe Ne Fe, the track feels like a turning point where potential meets polish, and charisma meets composition.Produced by Brym and Tha Soundz, Fefe Ne Fe finds BoiGizmo in his element: effortless, melodic, and subtly magnetic.

After a protracted silence interspersed with tacit gaslighting, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, the organization tasked with organizing the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Exam, UTME, has finally admitted culpability in the widespread complaints from students and guardians across the country of inscrutably low scores. Previously, the organization had hailed the just-concluded exams as one of the most successful in history and framed the historic mass failure this year as evidence of its increased success in curbing examination malpractice and question leaks. This narrative rang hollow in the wake of widespread complaints of glitches during the two weeks the exams…
Amidst the big wins, the disappointing losses and the perennial problems resurfacing at the 17th Headies held two weeks ago, the win of Shallipopi and Odumodublvck’s club anthem Cast as Best Rap Single slipped somewhat under the radar. At the time of its nomination, the song generated controversy over its eligibility, even from other artists—it deviates from traditional expectations for Rap music, being built on a framework of log drum-driven Benin swagger that Shallipopi has made his signature, with rapping consigned to small pockets and delivered at a slow pace. Its win brings to the fore unresolved arguments about what…
When in November of 2024, Wizkid released his sixth studio album Morayo, after a longwinded rollout effort that found him chronically online—an inversion of his characteristic reticence—the 34-year-old singer appeared poised to put behind him the woes of his poorly received fifth album, More Love Less Ego. In its opening weeks, Morayo earned feverish commercial and critical acclaim. The album, which corals the many different styles he has espoused over the years, united the disparate arms of his fanbase. The result was a level of excitement—especially in Nigeria where he broke an inordinate amount of records—that seemed to mirror the…
Since stepping onto the music scene in 2018, Nigerian singer Banke has been quietly but steadily carving out a space for herself. Now, as she prepares to release her debut album—a project delayed by what she describes as a mix of perfectionism and a deep need to create from a place of genuine inspiration—Banke is finally ready to share a fuller picture of her artistry. Having moved to the UK in 2022, her ability to blend Nigerian and British musical influences is perhaps best exemplified in her soulful single Nifemito, which soundtracked Bimbo Ademoye’s film Fame and Fury. Beyond the…
Of the 1,955,069 candidates who sat for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, only about 432,829, some 22 percent, scored 200 and above, a 2 percent drop from last year’s 24 percent. These numbers tell a familiar tale, one of an educational system mired in the same dereliction that pervades nearly every aspect of Nigerian society. Shortly after the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) released a clumsy Google docs file on its X account, which it tagged “Statistical Analysis of 2025 UTME Result,” frontman of Nigeria’s Labor Party Peter Obi issued a crestfallen statement through his X account in which…
