5 TYPES OF PEOPLE FOUND IN RADIO STATIONS - BY EKEMINI JOSEPH

Image
There's this friend I met on Facebook. He resides in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. He works real hard pursuing his radio dreams and at some time had developed a pirate radio station! He currently engages in a variety of radio production for Radio Nigeria Atlantic 104.5FM, Uyo. He also chose to share this fun piece with us. Enjoy! 5 types of people you will always see in a radio station: 1. The Microphoniac: One who loves to open the port just to talk, flow, do his thing. Everytime he gets a chance, the  mic opens. He even spends time running other people's shifts. He prays you fail your shift so he could run it. 2. The Headphoniac: Addicted to headphones, and his fingers are kind of clicky. Everytime, he clicks the mouse; Hover over people's computers searching for sounds to produce or voiceovers. He is the production type. 3. Writicus: Your one-stop copywriter. That guy who you often ask 'please may i use your biro?' and he replies 'sorry, using i

When I switched  in 2009 from DA LUVCHYLD to TONY DOE, it was because I wanted to separate the unsuccessful hip-hop act from the emerging broadcaster. Some thought it wasn't such a great move. I had a deeper insight and I couldn't be bothered with explaining it to anyone. However over time, I've grown to appreciate the body of work from a really talented rapper who probably just wasn't as enthusiastic about his art as was expected. Well, when marketers tell you endlessly that your songs won't sell, it does leave a dent on your self esteem. I'm thinking of heading back to the studio in a bit and bridging the gap between my era and what's out there today without losing substance...though I'm not sure I'll be re-enacting Da Luvchyld's aura. I'm pretty comfortable as Tony Doe and can still hold my own toe to toe with whoever spits substance and that's word to my mother. Meanwhile, if you'd like to find out what I sounded lik

MUSINGS OF A FAILED ARTISTE...

photo:  www.thefailedmusician.com ONCE THIS TWEET GETS 5000 RE-TWEETS, I WILL DROP MY DISS TRACK TO DRAKE & MEEK WHICH WILL CROWN ME KING OF HIP HOP! pic.twitter.com/HsaB2gyFWD — VIC.O (@VICOTVS) August 3, 2015 There was a prompting in my spirit to write this piece, in the wake of the noise wey Vic O don generate most recently. I heard about Vic O during his much publicised social media tiff with another in his category known as Speed Darlington. While they were notching up Youtube views in the thousands, I couldn't muster beyond 17 views for my 1st ever self produced music video "Guidelinez"!!!  Some are just discovering  Vic O  and wondering whether to take him seriously or not. If numbers do not lie, he is pretty much a big deal. He has been described as a rapper/comedian by some section of social media literati. He is currently the self acclaimed KING OF HIP HOP coming off his diss song aimed at both Drake and Meek Mill. He talked up a strong

OAPs ARE NOT EVEN MUSIC FANS...

Image
There has been an uproar on social media, specifically twitter about the nature of today's OAP (or radio personality) . My people have been accused of forcing false accents down the ears of the listener, of being voices without content and poor contributors to Nigeria's music progress. Mmmh, na wa. Recently I made a guest appearance in an edition of the very informative, colourful pan-African digital magazine, E.C.H.O. and some of the questions asked veered into OAP/Artiste/Music relationship territory. I made it clear though that artistes had to have the right attitude before expecting to hear their songs on the airwaves. However, a portion of OAPs are more interested in hearing their own voices and airing their very limited opinions on very delicate subject matter than paying attention to the quality of music they put out. They have assumed the roles of celebrities themselves, reducing their banter to base gossip or informed ignorance. I am not going to preten

E.C.H.O. MAGAZINE - EDITION 4

Image
This has to be one of the most proactive means of sustaining and propagating African Hip-hop in a digital age. At a point in my young life, I held on to the words of Ayo Animashaun's Hip-Hop World Magazine. But I have grown to see it deviate from what it was originally. With E.C.H.O. you'll find all the core elements of HipHop retained, the music (rappers, soul-singers, DJs), the artwork (graffiti, comics, fashion), the sub-culture itself (events, competitions). And even better, the relationship between what's happening in Hip-Hop communities in other countries and how they compare with what young Naija Hip-Hop acts are doing. Make I no yarn too much. Inside this editon sef, I yarn my mind about OAPs and shared my perspectives on Naija Hip-Hop and what needs to be done in the media to change a few anomalies. Make sure you download a copy and read for leisure and knowledge on your downtime. This edition is packed guy!!! E.C.H.O. MAGAZINE - EDITION 4
