With scarcely anything left to prove to his northern fans as
to the veracity and versatility of his talent, North- based Afro pop star
,Abdullahi Suleiman Jimoh, aka SHAI , has moved down to Lagos to try his luck
in the industry. The smooth-talking rapper- singer- songwriter says, “I decided
to relocate to Lagos, the center of excellence, where the music business is
really happening, where the drum sounds loudest. He said, I am convinced beyond
reasonable doubt that I have found the formula for mainstream staying power.
He explains I am motivated seeing how other artistes
creatively do their thing and people embrace it. And I told myself I have to talk
about reality and things that means the world to me in order to make my music
timeless and ever green, That is why am infusing a lot of innovative beat into
my music to create a style and concept that is fresh, unique and urbane .
It took me over eight months to study and figure out what the
industry needs, now I believe am matured and experienced having come a long way
since 2007 when I did my first hit,
Shai first caught the attention of music lovers back in the
north when he released his first single titled mubaje (lets flex),which was a
hit then and even spewed an animated video Alaba pirate because of the
anonymity of the artist. The single earn him a lot of attention and patronage from
big brands that include MTN , which made him a headline act at its (music by us
and for us) along buzu, fati naija, zule zu
Mubaje Remix song is a dance track, video’s story line has a
traditional feel based on the costumes, the theme is hilarious, sexy and it demonstrates
love. One of the major attraction in the video is one where the dwarfs prove
his ability to add fun and drama to the video, which prove that your disability
don’t limit what you can achieve in life.
