Jay One will be joining Kelly Handsome, Diamond, The Pulse and Kenny Saint Brown on the label. Kennis Music has once been home to Tony Tetuila, Edris Albudkareem, Azadus, Paul Play, Lagbaja, 2face Idibia, Kingsley Ike and many others. His single, ‘File be’ is ready and will be on all radio stations in a matter of day. And plans are in top gear to commence the shooting of his video.

Meanwhile the talk in town is that Mr Lecturer, Edris Abdulkareem is set to go back to the music label which he once called home.

When we spoke to CEO of the label, Mr Kenny Ogungbe on the matter he refused to comment on it saying he is like a father figure to many artistes in Nigeria. ‘I’m a man with an open heart open to anybody who wants to do business with us. We are here to promote good music and that is what we are committed to doing.

So, if anybody that has worked with us in the past comes with something we are comfortable with we will talk business. Even if you have not worked with us before and you have something that interest us and you come forward with it we will talk.’ Edris was not available for comment.

Meanwhile a source close to the record label hinted showbiz Now that the Asakasa exponent Abass Akande Obesere will be signing on with the record label on Monday and he would be releasing about four or five albums on the label.

If the signing goes through, Obesere, a known Fuji act will be the first of his contemporaries to sign contract of such with the label. Obesere who has completed work on his hip hop album will be releasing the anticipated LP soon. The album features top acts like 9ice, Timaya, Lord of Ajasa. 9ice collaborated with him on Kilonso, Timaya did same on Gbosewo, while Lord of Ajasa did what he knows how to do best on Dancia ni party. Obesere took the bar several inches higher by rendering a track, ogbu egbu 1 in Ibo and those who have heard the song say it is a chart buster.
