NooLah Drops Christmas Single: “Birth and Salvation”


NooLaH (Jibrin Nyekwap Fionnuala) is a gospel indie singer and songwriter who was raised in Jos, Plateau State Nigeria and she is currently working on releasing songs she has been writing over the years.

Like many other artistes, NooLaH sang as a child and joined her church choir at a very early age as well as in her high school where every student formed part of a mass choir. She was a pioneer member of “Christ for Everyone” (X4E), a music collaboration of friends and family who got involved in creative song writing and hosting live Christmas concerts in Jos for 7 years.

Exposure to various genres of music from her 4 older siblings gave her an opportunity to appreciate music and form her own NooLaHidentity. Pop, hiphop, R&B, rock, soul and many others found their way to her heart, but rock made the biggest impression, even though she didn’t realize it at that time. “It was much later in my adult life that I realized that most of my favourite songs from the past were rock songs; it’s a relief to know I’m not part of a fad!” she remarks, laughing. However her preference for rock has not so much constrained her music – a reason why she refrains from belonging to any specific genre for the time being. “I just sing from my heart, my soul. The lyrics come, the melody comes. Fitting in has never been part of me, as uncomfortable as it may sometimes feel. I don’t expect my music to do the same, except resonate with those it was meant to connect with”.

Most of NooLaH’s music is rooted in her journey of soul-seeking events and situations. “I never write based on a whim” she says, “music is my high; it makes me happy, but it is also a form of expression for me and so there has to be a connect before I can do something meaningful with it”

NooLaH has one single titled “I love you” which was released earlier this year and is set to release another Christmas inspired track titled “Birth & Salvation” (produced by Gboof Music) in December. She currently lives in Lagos.

Morell – GANGA DA GARAYA


With the music video for his latest single “Anti-Social” featuring Olamide still sitting high on nationwide charts after nearly 5 months, Morell returns with a brand new offering titled “Ganga Da Garaya” but with a very alternative and unique twist as the exciting artiste continues to be a shining light for innovative forward-thinking music and continues to push the boundaries for modern Nigerian Pop music.

Produced exquisitely by Danja and backed by lush traditional Hausa drum patterns and traditional Hausa guitar instrumentations, “Ganga Da Garaya” is a feel-good record sung uniquely in Morell’s native language of Hausa. With a glorious vocal performance and catchy indigenous lyrics with emotive and uplifting translations such as “come and see the gathering of the youth, real love born out of likeness” and “celebration is what’s happening, growth came with a promotion”, Morell is in resounding form with this new song.

Already poised for massive radio success in the Northern regions of Nigeria with Rhythm FM Abuja showing early massive support for “Ganga Da Garaya”, this gloriously infectious tune is set to spread like wild fire across the country, with both Hausa and non-Hausa speaking audiences falling in love with this song. | ENJOY!!!

Sagas – Kini Mo Se


“Sagas is an emerging pop sensation, signed to Grand Empire Entertainment. Born Jason Worlings in Lagos, the singer hails from Akwa Ibom State and is the son of a renowned Broadcaster.

Before signing to Grand Empire Entertainment and release of the massive new single ‘Kinimoshe,’ he released a mixtape titled FAKE –(Flow and Kill Everything) a year ago. Influenced by the new breed of urban artistes from Drake to Naeto C, Sagas delivered a record that draws an impressive mix of frankness and joviality.

‘Kinimoshe’ was recorded to portray the real story of a Nigerian who is in love with who is not. With quickfire witty lyrics and infectious flows from Sagas, Kinimoshe is a playful and light-hearted ode to an unfair lover.”  Enjoy.
