Big Brother wellcome back by His Grace you will excel again as usual. Amen.
I downloaded "Osinanga" to listen with a crave of that classic signature. This could be an update of the library of our rich evergreen music in Nigeria
That's what I'm talking about. I find that too many pioneer Nigerian musicians "throw in the towel" at about 50. Music has no age boundary.
I have not stopped from Nigeria to US and China. See my story at http://www.africaskyshop.com and tell me what you think. Music is meant to be shared.
Ride On, bro. Emma Ogosi and hey! Anyawu.
Amen. Tnx.
Lol.
