Good Read: The Girl With The Louding Voice - Abi Dare

  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

Video: Temi Doll Face - Beep Beep

-
Nigeria's music scene seems to be going through different phases, from the collaboration with different artistes from different countries, to a fusion of genres all rolled into one album. Meet Temitope Phil-Ebosie aka Temi Doll Face, she released the visuals for her latest single titled, 'Beep Beep', featuring Black Magic. The song could be said to be  a fusion of afrobeats and early 30's club cabaret. It reminds me of Christina Aguilera's Ain't no other man fused with Erykah Badu's soul pop with the finishing touches of Fela's Afro Beats. Listen after the break. 
  
When I heard the song a few days ago, I really did enjoy her creativity, it is very different from what every one has been releasing on the Nigerian music scene over the years and a breath of fresh air. 

Did you enjoy this?

The armed force are known for not joking around when it comes to spotting impostors wearing their outfits, whereas in some quarters, this could also be worn as a fashion statement! A man in Nigeria was caught and confronted by army officers for wearing a camouflage vest. He was later apprehended; but the impostor's response was not forthcoming but highly hilarious. Watch footage after the break.
