Check-out
the N130,000 shoe D`banj wore to lumia party and what New York Times had to say
about Banga lee!!!!
Below
is how The New York Times sees D'Banj:
D’Banj is one of the
great African pop stars of the past decade, a charming singer but, more
important, a savvy showman. For years, this Nigerian singer was at the center
of the Mo’Hits Records stable, but now he’s struck out on his own with a new
label and the compilation “D’Banj Presents DKM (D’ King’s Men)”
(DB/G.O.O.D./Sony).
It’s an alluring
contemporary pop album with an emphasis on king-size dance music, like the
militarily efficient “Don’t Tell Me Nonsense” and the flash of last year’s
excellent smash hit “Oliver Twist.”
D’Banj is also a savvy
synthesizer of the old and new Africa, as on “(We the Best),” a duet with the
Congolese singer Fally Ipupa.
But really, D’Banj has
his eye on the world; he’s signed to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music imprint, and
the lovely “Scape Goat (The Fix)” features what’s certainly the most cheerful
version of Mr. West you’ll hear this year, or any year.
