Now Muzik’s Loos Kollectiv is out with Take Over

Loos Kollectiv, a hip hop ensemble on the label of Now Muzik, is set to take over the airwaves with its new single aptly titled Take Over.

Take Over is full of metaphors and wordplays. The well crafted hook of the J Sleek produced song is sure to excite fans of Hip Hop music in Nigeria. Hip Hop is a very competitive genre and with four rappers on one track the competition was fierce (although friendly), each rapper brought their own unique flow and delivery to the song.

Loos Kollectiv is a hip hop ensemble consisting of rappers, producers, writers, singers, poets, B-Boys and Deejays working directly or indirectly with Now Muzik in management, label or allied scenarios. On this track you have a lyrical onslaught from Jayce, PKD, Romeo and Butafly.

Jayce (Mafoitan Oladipupo) is a wiz with indigenous Yoruba rap. The Business Administration undergraduate of Yaba College of Technology’s love for music and entertainment has seen him go on to become a social director in his department, affording him opportunities to perform and win fans across campuses in Lagos.

Ever since wining 2011 Star Quest with his group, Crystals wherein they dropped their Elevated album a year later, Romeo (Romeo Ugwudike) has garnered enough recording and performance experiences to make pursue a solo career under Now Muzik. The energetic performer gave his all in this new single.

PKD (Perekeme Dubre) is a Warri born and bred rapper with a unique voice and style of rap which blends Warri Pidgin with English. PKD was an opening act in 2Face Idibia’s Campus Connect Tour, he appeared on the Million Voices For Peace song (Break The Silence) which also features 2Face Idibia, Sound Sultan, Rigtheousman, Jo El, Ferre Galo and Samini. PKD is also a writer and content creator.

 Lois Osuoha aka Butafly is a femcee with a vicious delivery, her debut mixtape Butafly Rap Trap (BRT) in which she featured MI, Terry Tha Rapman, Godwon and Koffi was released last year and enjoys massive airplay even as she is working on a new single.  

2face preached love, hope, peace and achievement - PKD

My experience on the 2face tour was exciting and educating. I got to see how the show's i've always watched on television and even been on, come to be. It was an amazing spectacle with exhilarating performance by our favourite artists.

In the ancient city of Benin, students flocked in their legions to see the legend 2face. It was a little over whelming for the Now Muzik crew as the turnout was very impressive. So was the crowd at the University of Port Harcourt indoor complex. The late arrival of students at the Enugu campus was due to the change of location but they eventually came en- mass as the show progresses. Abuja and Lagos had similar impressive turn outs.

The sound system at each venue was state of the art and Dj Willie O was on deck at every show to provide the background instrumentals for the artist.

Opening acts such as myself, Jamaima and other local acts from each school started each show with scintillating performances, followed by some of the hottest singers and rappers in the country that are not just colleagues but friends of 2baba himself.

There was Vector tha viper, Dami Krane, Seyi Shay, Rocksteady, Sound Sultan and his Naija Ninjas crew, Phyno and other acts took the stage as a prelude to the entry of Trubaba as I have dubbed him. 

It was a successful tour and I know Now Muzik and 2face especially have achieved their purpose, as the 2face brand has been successfully pushed to the younger generation who may have been too distracted by the high supply of music on the internet, but a tour like this will make the 2face message stick and leave the fans with a memory of a legend serenading them preaching love, hope, peace and achievement.

Yes, he has achieved but has not forgotten his roots and the up and coming youths even as he has been able to pass a message to the younger generation amidst entertainment and fan fair. The students will forever remember moments like 2face giving them a privileged catchy phrase, let somebody hold you from an unreleased song, the pictures taken in the Amstel Malta booth, the free drinks and CDs.

I am indeed very grateful to Mr. Efe Omoregbe and Innocent 2ace Idibia for the opportunity I had to be a part of this tour.

Personal experiences from 2face Campus Connect tour

Although the 2face Campus Connect tour has come, it will definitely not go away as it will remain indelible in the memory of everyone who was involved, one way or the other, in a tour that seeks to bring 2face Idibia closer to the students.

Scriptorial Pr will, as a shift from the norm, be giving you experiences of some of the people on the tour. This week, we are featuring PKD, one of the opening acts on the tour.
