Musician Eedris Abdulkareem Is Now A Farmer



In a recent interview with a popular tabloid, Eedris said he has invested the millions he made from music in a large-scale agro-business in Kano State, adding that most of his time is spent on the farm where he cultivates maize and other crops for export and also abroad where he sells his crops.
"I am a farmer now. Since 2001, I have been fully engaged in agricultural activities and have investment in metals. I have vast land where I cultivate maize and other fruits for export in Kano," he said.
According to the 'Jaga Jaga' crooner, this aspect of his life has been kept secret because he doesn't want distraction.
Eedris said he'd be launching a new project which he calls, 'I Am A Nigerian Project,' soon and it has already commenced with the release of Godfather Godson, a single contained in an upcoming 16-track album that will be released later this year on La Cream Music label.
Aside being an artiste, he is also a social crusader bent on seeing a new Nigeria where everyone will live in peace and abundance.

Burna Boy wants to be free


Burna Boy, one of Nigeria’s most popular artists has increased the ink on his body with a new tattoo,  leaving little tattoo-free space left!

The new tattoo, according to his Instagram page, is Burna Boy’s expression of longing to be free as it depicts a bird in the clouds.

‘#Artistic representation #FREEDOM‘, he wrote under the picture.

The dancehall star (his real name is Damini Ogulu) could be depicting his plans to leave Aristrokrat Records and start his own management company later this year.

The freedom could also be from being linked to a criminal past, which he has continuously denied or freedom from the comments on his performance at the Fela memorial concert, "Felabration" wearing only his underwear.
