Tunde and Wunmi Obe Release 5th Star Studded Album titled #TWOPlus


Following over twenty-five years of professional and personal collaboration in a career which has spawned several hit songs and music awards, pop duo Tunde and Wunmi Obe aka T.W.O. have announced the release of their fifth studio album titled T.W.O. Plus. 

Featuring collaborations with artistes such as 2face, 9ice, Dammy Krane, Teniim, Segun Obe, Floss and Brace amongst others, the 15-track album is a fresh addition to the artistic repertoire of T.W.O who have previously been recognised for being one of the few Nigerian music acts from the 90s who have maintained their staying power with evergreen music. T.W.O. Plus employs a more urban production feel and mixes it with their signature melodies and socially conscious messages.

The couple, who are Nigeria’s most recognizable husband and wife act, first achieved recognition and public acclaim in the 90s and over the past two decades, their creative collaborations have spawned successful albums such as T.W.O 4 Real, T.W.O. Legit, as well as popular anthems such as 2005 smash hits “Mogbomoya” and "Adupe".   T.W.O. Plus retains the feel-good factor from their previous albums while appealing to the nineties and noughties audience.


Speaking about the new album, Tunde Obe remarked that it is the culmination of their musical careers thus far, and the result of four years of painstaking creative work. In his words, “T.W.O. has grown and evolved over the years, both as a sound and as a brand and this album is a celebration of all that is great about T.W.O. as well as a venture into a fresh sound because we have always prided ourselves on our ability to be musical innovators. I think our fans are going to love this new album because we made it with them in mind. I myself find it very difficult to pick a favourite from the songs on T.W.O. Plus.”


Featuring production from elite music producers DelB, Samklef, Papi J and B. Jay Productions, T.W.O. PLUS promises to be a delightfully original and fresh marriage of sounds, which will further be complemented by the videos that are to be directed by none other than Clarence Peters of Capital Dreams Pictures


T.W.O Plus is a 15-track album which includes the hit singles, Green White Green ft. 2face Idibia, Omonsa, Bianu ft. Floss, and Wedding Day, whose video has already won the NMVA2014 award for Best Use of Costume.


The new album, marketed by Ugo Best Global Ent., will be launched for general release on Tuesday May 5, 2015. See the full track list below.

All is Set For ‘Fools Day’ – A Stage Play To Watch Out For In March

Tiata-tori series and Kininso-koncepts productions presents ‘FOOL’S DAY’ written by Olufemi Oke and directed by Joshua Alabi.
This rib-cracking play encapsulates the decadence in the family over the years in our contemporary societies. It is a dramatic survey especially on the Nigerian family prevalent in these times.
The play tries to examine dramatically the resultant effect of parent’s non-challant attitude towards their children’s affairs outside the home. Though a COMEDY, this play touches serious issues that parents could face when all they do is provide for their children’s needs and believe all is well.
The family is the nucleus of every society and this means that, if the family is not well taken care of and structured in a way to improve the societal moral and human sanctity, then chaos would be the order of the day. A certain Chief and his wife are faced with the discovery of their children and house-helps wayward lifestyle on a day they least expect and…. (This is thrilling, See the show) When chaos thrives in the nucleus of the society, then everyone is left at the mercy of fate. Non-stop Laughter and humor until you get back home after seeing this show.
Tiata-tori continues on the last 3 sundays of every month.

My Lagos My Nigeria – A Young Man’s First Experience of Lagos #AmProudlyNigerian




Ever wondered what makes Lagos special?
 Some would say that it is because countless opportunities abound in Lagos, others would argue that it’s because of the crazy traffic.
Speaking of traffic, ever driven over the famous 3rd mainland bridge on a Monday morning between the hours of 8 and 10? Then you know what traffic in Lagos means.
 Here’s a story from Jerome, a young man who relocated to Lagos from Issele-uku, Delta state, in search of a Job:
Sitting down in the danfo bus, sweating profusely, I began to wonder if this job interview was really worth the struggle. Between the incredible heat, the smell in the danfo and the noise – both inside and outside the bus – I would be lucky if I got to my interview in one piece. But I needed the job badly; so going back was not an option.
