For the past year, Segun Obe has been in the studios - working
with some of Nigeria‘s best, especially Cobhams and
Rymzo. He has been away from the shows, but he has been working
hard and strong.
Of course, the nation knows what Segun Obe represents. Stubbornly
sticking with gospel in the face of many others who have abandoned
it, Segun has made it his life’s course to bring gospel
music into the mainstream, and to continually make it more
appealing to the mainstream markets.
After months working and sweating it out, Segun is out again
- and this time, it’s Segun like you’ve never
seen him before! He is pumping up the commercial value - and
the beats that are coming from his end right now are hits
for the clubs, for the concerts and for the par-ties!
He has announced his return by releasing into the market his
new single, Plenty Celebrations - one that features the hit
artiste of the moment, 9ice. Prominent collabo on this single
is one you cannot afford to miss. The guy just oozes talent!
And he compliments Segun perfectly. The song is already enjoying
heavy rotation in Cool FM, Rhythm FM, Unity FM, Metro FM and
indeed with all the major radio and disc jockeys across the
nation.
The critics are already raving about it - it is difficult
to find anyone who can resist moving to this beat. To cap
it all up, the single is produced by Cobhams; and Cobhams
went to town on this beat!
More singles are coming out once this has made the round of
deejays, clubs and radio stations around the country. Next
up is ‘Kinimolese’ and ‘No Time’,
produced by Rymzo.
But that is only half of the news. Even better, Segun is doing
something he has never done before in his ten year career
in music “ in re-launching his brand, he is launching
this album in a major way.
In June - working with RedSTRAT - he will be dragging along
heavyweights and the brightest stars from the music industry
for a major event of performances
And from what we are seeing, Segun Obe's launch, and his coming-soon
album, are going to grab the nation's attention big time!
Get ready!
