Orezi: After entertaining us with hits like Shoki, Rihanna and Shuperu, Sprisal Entertainment act, Orezi is finally ready with his debut album ‘Ghen Ghen’. He’s been worthy of a major break for some time now. Pundits say the turn around may eventually happen with the release, today, of his LP.

The album will feature MI Abaga, Flavour and others.

Brymo: Olawale Ashimi returns with his fifth album and first international offering, Trance which will be distributed in the US by TMG. With his career already slowing down, following a dispute with former label Chocolate City Music, and a legal tussle that did little to push his music, Trance should bring back attention to the music. This father-of-1 is one of the best singers to ever grab the mic. The kind of singer critics will give five stars before even listening to the body of work.
