CHOCOLATE CITY SIGNS FIRST FEMALE ARTISTE

Chocolate City, an award-winning entertainment company owned by Audu Maikori and Paul has signed their first ever female artiste.
The label which harbours top artistes like M.I, Jesse Jagz, Iceprince, and Brymo has welcomed their latest member Princess Esindu a.k.a Pryse. The talented rapper who was born and raised in Port Harcourt, Rivers State studied media in a UK university; her influences are Jay Z, Drake, Lil Wayne, and M.I.

Energetic and talented Pryse welcomed the opportunity of being featured along-side, award winning Africa’s rapper numero uno, M.I on his upcoming mixtape “Deux Illegaux de Musique – Illegal Music 2”.
She became enlisted in the Chocolate City camp when label owners heard her part in the song “No-tis” (a cover of Jay Z and Kanye West’s Otis).

 Reacting to the honour, she said,”I thank God I’ve come this far, and I’m just happy its finally happened, and I’m ready to put in the work, so let’s go. I’m ready to be a BOI (Bold Original Innovative).”

I love the way femcees keep springing up! Yaaay!

FUNNY, OLD PICTURES OF NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES

Okies. This is different and I hope u find it hilarious. See how our stars looked when they were young. Let's analyze one by one:1) Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson-Okojie-Senior Mercy's(3rd from left) baggy trousers, poise, haircut point to the fact that she was an authentic senior, who would have thought that the well-endowed actress once looked like this (well, I refuse to judge her by her 'past'.lol)2) Musician, Susan Harvey a.k.a Goldie- So, Sisto Goldie once suffered hair-drought. The few ones on her head shouting Halleluyah together with her shimmering forehead makes this picture look funny.3)Musician Timaya-The self-acclaimed Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa's mouth and ears in this picture is something to 'text home about'.4)Musician Panshak Zamani, known as Ice Prince obviously got the folder and school uniform from a senior in SS3 and if I may ask, ow many ladies fell in love with him after seeing him on shades?5)On Air Personality, Tosin Bucknor looked like a strict health prefect in this picture. Sure some juniors avoided her wahala.lol6)Nollywood actor-Segun Arinze-only his size has changed, he still an 'overSEEer'.7)Presenter Denrele Edun-so Denrele has been like this since he was 2, I'm sure he personally requested for socks instead of clothes and I'm sure he graced birthday occassions like this.smh (Now I know better)8)Ex Beauty Queen and rapper Munachi Abii- this was supposed to be a birthday party or something, I understand Munachi was dancing but was she thinking she could 'uproot' the dance floor by doing this. You are outstanding joor.9)Rapper Jude Abaga a.k.a MI-looked so much like a 10/10 boy. He looked like somebody who doesn't look for other people's trouble and would sit on a spot for 5hours without uttering a word but now??sigh10) Musician Bankole Wellington a.k.a Banky W must have nursed the idea of being a footballer, this one that he was dribbling nobody, that must be the fifth time he 'escaped' from his sitting position.11) Comedia Teju Oyelakun a.k.a Teju Babyface- take a look at this picture well, something tells me Teju looked like a piece of puff-puff or a drowned Agege bread. I will follow my mind.12)Musician- Prince shared some of MI's attributes, gentle or quite but maybe uncomfortable with the dreads.
