After a long musical hiatus, award-winning Nigerian artist Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, better known as Iyanya and famed for hits such as; Ur Waist, Kukere and Flavour, has released a new song and it’s getting a lot of love from his fans.
The jam dubbed Fever has been ruling the airwaves since it was released a few hours ago and to be honest, we’re also feeling it.
Iyanya
Basically, this track is about a certain lady that Iyanya can’t get enough of so much so that he claims that she can she can cure his fever.
Fever is so infectious. Listening to it made me realize how much I had missed the 33-year-old singer who I must say I am a huge fan of.
Iyanya
Iyanya has an amazing voice. I particularly like how he expresses himself in his songs. I know many ladies will have this jam on their playlists for a very long time. I mean, isn’t it obvious why?
I also love the beat on this jam. Other than the fact that it’s very catchy, it also blends well with Iyanya’s style as well as his tempo. Believe you me, you will not resist the urge to stand up and dance when this song comes on.
The video concept and execution is quite impressive. The other things that I liked are the location, impeccable drone shots, styling and of course, the beautiful vixen.
They boast of several hit songs, some of them are even signed by international labels like Jay Z’s Roc Nation. But interestingly these Nigerian artistes have nothing to show in live performance.
If you’ve been paying attention to what has been trending on social media in the last two days, especially Twitter, then you must have noticed Nairobi revelers have been lamenting over the distraught performance by Nigerian singer Tekno Miles.
Tekno Miles
Miles tops the list of Nigerian singers with big names and nothing to show for in live performance. The singer left Nairobians cursing after dropping subpar performance at Ngong Racecourse on Saturday September 9th.
Kenyans were surprisingly impressed by local artistes’ performance especially The Kansol and Camp Mulla; but Tekno’s performance didn’t match his big name and the expectations of revelers.
Tiwa Savage
Tiwa Savage
She was causing ripples across Africa with her new album ‘Red’ when she flew to Nairobi to perform at 11th edition of Barbeque Live that went down at Ngong Racecourse on November 12th 2016.
Tiwa Savage, who signed to Jay Z’s label Roc Nation, didn’t leave a lasting impression after her performance at Ngong Racecourse. Nobody even seemed to have noticed she performed, this is usually not the case when Wizkid or Diamond Platnumz perform anywhere in Kenya.
Remember how tongues were wagging after Wizkid’s concert at KICC on Saturday July 22nd and Diamond performance on the 17th edition of Koroga Festival which went down on 28th May 2017?

He’s probably a shadow of his past, yes he was featured in Jaguar’s remix ‘One Centimeter’ which gave him clout in Kenya, but currently Iyanya can’t impress a diverse audience other than the bimbos who go berserk every time he removes his shirt on stage.
The Nigerian singer regularly jets into Nairobi to perform for small audiences, mostly pool parties at B-Club. The last gig he had in Kenya was on 4th June 2017, bet most of you were not even aware Iyanya was in town.
Patoranking

On Saturday June 24th 2017, Nigerian sensation Patoranking was in Kenya for a performance at the Kiza restaurant and lounge in Nairobi.
The show was hyped on radios and billboards across the city but surprisingly there were no chitchats on social media to indicate that the Nigerian superstar had won the hearts of Nairobi revelers with his performance.
Big names like Patoranking are paid millions per show but if they have no impact with their performances then there is no need for local promotors to waste millions on them.
Davido

Hehehe… His show in Nairobi on March 28th 2015 was the exact copy of Tekno Miles’ Saturday September 9th 2017 concert at Ngong Racecourse.
All roads led to Carnivore grounds on Saturday 28th March as Davido was set to drop the most electrifying performance ever.
But then disaster happened that Saturday night, Davido performed for 20 minutes and left the stage. Revelers were mad, twitter erupted as Kenyans who bought tickets started throwing tantrums.
All in all Wizkid and Yemi Alade are the only Nigerian artistes you should pay to watch them perform, for the remaining artistes I would advise you to stay at home and watch their performance on YouTube.
There have been lots murmurs about an ultimate VIP pool party that Nigerian singer Iyanya was to headline. It turns out the said party is happening sooner than expected.
Iyanya has confirmed he will headline rooftop pool party on June 4th 2017. The Nairobi office of Temple Management Company (the label which has signed Iyanya) confirmed that Up 2 Somtin crooner will have a meet and greet with fans on Thursday June 1st at the upscale B –CLUB located at Diamond Plaza and an exclusive performance on Sunday June 4th at the B-CLUB VIP Pool Party.
Iyanya, fondly called ‘Kukere Master’ is riding on the crest-wave of his new eight-track Signature EP album produced by Mavins Records led by maverick producer, Don Jazzy. The EP includes popular songs such as Hold On, Up 2 Sumtin, Odoyewu and Baby Answer.
During his brief visit, the ladies’ man has been lined up to visit popular media houses including Kiss FM and Homeboys FM among others. In anticipation of his arrival, it was learnt that imposing billboards of the singer now dot the city’s nerve centre.
