This year's Koko Concert would be the first after the demise of that hugely successful team that used to be known in the industry as Mo'Hits Records. It has been several months since the break up that brought about Maven Records on one side; Made up of the likes of Don Jazzy, Dr Sid, D'Prince, Wande Coal and their first lady-Tiwa Savage and on the other side, Nigeria's most exposed musician till date in the person of Mr entertainer himself, Dbanj, his brother K-switch d'Product and J.Sol, that's the new D Banj Record's signee.
Everyone in Nigeria and even outside already knows that the Koko Concert is set for December 27, 2012 at the Eko Atlantic Beach venue. It is also nothing new that British born top actor, Idris Elba is going to host this year's edition of the concert. While several foreign artistes are being touted to perform, 2 of those already confirmed are, Big Sean & Pusha T. One name that most have not heard about in the equation, but that we at MM hear might be performing is none other than top international music act, who though is British born, is of Nigerian extraction and that is Patrick Chukwuemeka Okogwu jr. aka Tinie Tempah. According to our snooping bird in know, Tinie might have agreed to come to Lagos to perform at the Koko Concert, thereby helping to add more spice to the already sweet soup that's been cooked for December 27, 2012. We hear that, the DBR crew might still be trying to dot their i's and cross their t's. So if the deal scales through, then expect T.I.N.I.E TEMPAH.
It would be a fitting end to the year for D Banj and his crew, if this is another very successful Concert. His London HMV Apollo concert tagged the D Banj and friends was an unbelievable success, the venue was so packed out it was unbelievable, with many of his loyal fans flying in from the US, Nigeria and nearby countries. It has also being an award laden year, for the great Oliver Twist, aka the Black Mamba, with over 12 plus international recognition from far and near, and newer nominations just announced. His new single titled- Top of the world, has also being chosen as the official song for the 2013 African Cup of Nations. So it has been a mixed bag of the good, the bad and the ugly for him, but it all seems to be ending very well after-all.
