oh yeah bc of my "no ranking their Actual Name" rule for the artist name thing I had to google... MANY, MANY people to see whether their stage name was a stage name or not...

Google is going to have a REALLY incorrect idea of my taste in music after this.

Seen here in 1989, Fela’s firstborn son, Femi, joined his father’s band at age 16—and has been a fixture in the international music scene ever since.

Brett Dennen feat. Femi Kuti - Make You Crazy lyrics

[lboogie1906]

Iyeoka Okoawo (born April 28, 1975) is a Nigerian-American poet, recording artist, singer, activist, educator, and TEDGlobal Fellow. Her music includes elements from soul, R&B, rock, hip-hop, and jazz.

A first-generation Nigerian-American, she was a practicing pharmacist before launching her musical career.

She began her musical career by founding the group The Rock by Funk Tribe, a collective of musicians that enabled her to interweave her poetry with jazz, blues, funk, and gospel. She released her first solo full-length album of poem songs, called Black and Blues, through Phanai Records. Then she began to tour and appeared on other artists’ albums, including The Press Project’s Get Right album and Memoirs of the Tempo by Tempo Valley.

She released her second album of poetry and music fusion, Hum The Bass Line, again on Phanai Records. She made a cover of U2's hit song “Desire” for a compilation of U2 covers called In The Name Of Love: Africa Celebrates U2. The album featured Grammy Award-winning/nominated African artists, including Angelique Kidjo, Les Nubians, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars, Vieux Farka Touré, Vusi Mahlasela, and the Soweto Gospel Choir.

She released her new album, Say Yes, containing nine songs and two poems, through the Underground Sun artist development company. The first song, “The Yellow Brick Road Song”, was featured in an episode of How To Make It in America. “The Yellow Brick Road Song” is being used as the theme song for the series “Fairly Legal”.

She was nominated in The 10th Annual Independent Music Awards for her song “This Time Around” in the R&B Song category.

She is touring in support of the new album and her poetry. She has toured in support of artists such as Femi Kuti, Zap Mama, and Soulive, as well as playing at musical festivals, including Bonnaroo. The buzz surrounding her poetry has garnered her national attention through performances at the TBS Trumpet Awards, the Sullivan Honors Awards at the Kennedy Center, and Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry Jam. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

“In the northern suburb of Ikeja, tucked away amid warehouses and factories, is the home of that sound, the New Afrika Shrine. This cavernous auditorium, with its corrugated metal roof and walls drained of their colour by years of humidity, is a reincarnation of the musical home of Fela Kuti, whose Afrobeat style – defined in part by the polyrhythmic drumming of Tony Allen – pointed the way to today’s Afrobeats sound. Although he died in 1997, Kuti’s life and influence are celebrated with Felabration, an annual week-long festival of music, art and politics. Ezra Collective, one of the most exciting bands to come out of Britain in years, have been invited to grace the stage at the Shrine for this year’s festival. It is more like a pilgrimage than a normal gig. Bandleader and drummer Femi Koleoso arrives at the venue by 2pm looking excited and tired: “I went back to the studio with some local musicians last night so didn’t get much sleep.” It must have been a late one as he was still dancing on the side of the stage to Made Kuti, grandson of Fela, at 1am. Clearly, he was determined not to waste a minute of the trip.”

"We will be having a new student joining us today." Orio-sensei informed them.

˜"*°• [Third Person Pov] •°*"˜

 Ah hah  Oya, Oya, Oya (3x) (Beng beng beng) - ad lib Beng beng beng beng beng Beng beng beng beng

Chiagozie hummed along to the lyrics, moving her body to the rhythm of the song. Dancing with music while cleaning is better than cleaning with no music.

She was listening to Beng Beng Beng by Femi Kuti alongside her little sister Amaka, and little brother James. who are in the sitting room.

'James is probably asleep though', she thinks reaching for her phone only to be met with air.

'Where did I put my phone?'Chiagozie looks frantically in every single one of the cupboards and cabinets.

'I'll just ask Amaka to call it for me.' she reassured herself.

" Amaka!"

"What!"

" Call my phone!"

" Why!"

"Just call it!"

"Fine!"Amaka agreed and Chiagozie could practically feel her roll her eyes. Ugh this gonna be a long day.

The time is 12, midnight my brother The girl leave, out of my bed now The weather outside na correct weather That kind of cold freezing weather

[̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_]

It's 1 A.M on a school night, by this time most children would be sleeping only to wake up for school in the morning. 

And Chiagozie would be sleeping two if not for the fact she's been hooked to a whole book series for 3 hours. 

She rubbed her eyes as it was getting hard to see with them getting watery. 

This was exactly what Harry had been hoping for. He slipped his wand back into his robes, waited until Cedric's friends had disappeared into their classroom, and hurried up the corridor, which was now empty of everyone but himself and Cedric.

"Hi," said Cedric, picking up a copy of A Guide to Advanced Transfiguration that was now splattered with ink. "My bag just split. . . brand-new and all. . . ""Cedric," said Harry, "the first task is dragons. "

"What?" said Cedric, looking up."Dragons," said Harry, speaking quickly, in case Professor Flitwick came out to see where Cedric had got to.

"They've got four, one for each of us, and we've got to get past them. "Cedric stared at him. Harry saw some of the panic he'd been feeling since Saturday night flickering in Cedric's gray eyes."Are you sure?" Cedric said in a hushed voice.

"Dead sure," said Harry. "I've seen them. "

"But how did you find out? We're not supposed to know. . . . "

"Cause he's Harry Potter." she answered the book, the book didn't respond.

If you couldn't have guessed before then yes, what she's reading is none other than Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. 

Bookmarking the page she was on, she checked the time on the phone it read 2:59. 

'Okay that's enough for me.'she thought as she set the book on the desk right next to her. 'I have school tomorrow.'

Yawning Chiagozie blinked tiredly and stretched her arms generating a popping sound. She sighed. 

Reaching over to the light switch right above her desk, a thought popped into her mind. Chiagozie had almost forgotten one more thing.

Quickly she sent a message to her pen pal Yugi Muto.

CaramelEnthusiast:

I'm Here In Domino.

[̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_]

BEEP!

The sounds from the alarm surrounded the lovely Reynold home.

BEEP!

Russet's eyes cracked open, narrowing at her ceiling as if it offended her. Then widening as she looked at the alarm.

BEEEEEEP!

"OH Shit I'm late!"

[̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_][̲̅_]

The voices of students were spread all over the classroom. With students talking in their respective friend groups. 

And at the center of it all was none other than our rising protagonist Yugi Muto, making a card tower.

Though all chatter died down when the classes homeroom teacher Orio-sensei arrived with his usual paper  at the classroom. 

"Good Morning class.",Orio-sensei called placing down his belongings .

"Good Morning Orio-sensei!", they answered back.

"We will be having a new student joining us today.", informed them.

Just as he said that the door opened and as a tall dark skin girl wearing the Domino high school uniform walked in. Instead of the blue ribbon being tied around her shirt collar in a bow as it usually was for the girls uniform, it was just a simple knot paired with black leggings and a longer skirt. 

Whispers spread through the class like wildfire as they all stared at her, thoughts like 'Wow a foreigner.', 'Who is she?' and 'She's so tall.' swam through most of their minds except for two.

"Hello I'm Reynold Chiagozie,nice to meet you." She bowed politely before pulling herself back up with a nervous smile,"And I'll be in your care."
