  • You know his hit soundtracks ‘Billionaire’, ‘Happy Mumu’ and ‘Karishika from the thousands of songs he has made for Nollywood soundtracks over the painting years. He is on track for a Guinness World Record for the sheer volume and vitality of his brilliance - over 10,000 songs.
    Some of the most precious songs from my childhood watching Nollywood movies have come from his heart - ‘Iyeme’ in Chain Reactions, ‘You and I’ from Conspiracy and the soundtrack from the Kate Henshaw film ‘Compromise’ that stole my heart when I was in high school.
    And what a heart - he says those songs connect deeply with us because his heart has been broken too many times. By a father who didn’t believe in his music, by divorces, and losing a wife and a child to the tragic hands of death.
    He says he knows sadness, he knows sorrows… but he also knows joy, and he knows what it means to love and be loved.

Tonton Chude please set this agenda and make this happen in the next AMVCA. This 1 no need category, they should just award him. A man who has songs for all scenarios 🙌🏾.

    For a live performance the music should have been performed live. There's no need giving the backups microphones because they're not using it at all. It's the sound track that's doing every work. At least, there should have been a live band performing with him.
