“It’s been a whirlwind since the launch of Mavin Records”, says Dr Sid onset of the shoot. “We all have been working hard on our individual projects.

PREMIERE: Orezi – What Is The Need


Orezi has always been baddass when it comes to making catchy music. The Channel O Awards 2012 nominated artiste releases his new single “What Is The Need”. I’ve had this song on repeat for the past few hours. The clubs, radio and Alaba mixtapes will embrace this for sure.
“If there is any artiste in Nigeria who the whole industry is tuned to his music at the moment, he is Orezi, Dat Gehngehn Guy. He has all of us mesmerized with his powerful and melodious vocals on the great song with the legend Cool DJ Jimmy Jatt ‘Komije’, DJ Debby’s ‘Emoti’and his talent is undeniable garnering him a nomination for most gifted raggadancehall artists in Africa at The Channel O Music Video Award to be held November this year for his song Booty Bounce.
He is coming out with the first official single off his forthcoming debut album (don’t forget booty bounce is a freeystyle :-) ) and the whole world is waiting to hear him.. Here it is, ‘What is the need?’ is the title of the new single.
This makes you wonder what he is trying to say in this song. Orezi said to the girls ‘what is the need of your boyfriend claiming he is rich if he cannot buy you Brazilian hair?’….what is the need.
Or what is the need, if you still ‘wowo’ after all the MaryKay..
The Channel O Music Video Award nominee for 2012 is asking all of us WHAT IS THE NEED?”
