Brilliant! Exceptional! Incredible! Those were the
words fun seekers used to describe the Project
Fame All Star Concert that took place at the LTV
Blue Roof Arena, in Lagos, over the weekend. In
what will go down as one of the most exhilarating
and exciting concert witnessed in recent times, fans
came out en masse to party with their favourite
superstars and MTN ambassadors. Continue..
Timaya posted one of his best performances so far;
Chidinma Ekile dazzled the audience, Banky. W
rocked, Oritse Femi tickled, Praiz elated; The Mavins
made their presence felt, Kcee mesmerised and
Olawale Ojo, winner of Project Fame 6, thrilled his
fans.
The crowd stood up for great showmanship and
applauded the extraordinary giftedness of the
artistes that graced the All-Stars stage.
Every moment was electrifying. All the artistes were
exceptional. Choruses like ‘Surelere’, ‘Ukwu’, ‘When
I Become Rich and Famous’, ‘Is Nothing’, ‘Kedike’
and a lot more reverberated down the winding
Agidingbi lane and echoed across the serene centre
of excellence.
There was a moment of ingenuity when Larry
Annetts, the out-going Chief Marketing Officer of
MTN, enlivened the audience by his perfect
rendition of Kcee’s ‘Limpopo’. The marketing chief
soon became the focal point as the spot-light picked
him up and showed he was actually singing not
miming the song. Many said if the marketing guru
could learn and understand not just the tune of the
song but its lyrics, then he must represent a brand
that is passionate about its customers.
There was sheer brilliance in other performances.
For instance Seriki’s lyrics were alluring. He held
the audience spell- bound with his tight rhymes and
street vibes. He generated instant love, especially
among the teeming young people who reechoed
every line of his Yoruba rap.
The climax of all the performances was the moment
Timaya rendered his ‘Ukwu’ song and invited a lady
who many felt the title perfectly addressed.
Speaking to some of the participants, they
unanimously expressed their satisfaction with every
performance at the show.
One Salami Odumosu said ‘it was one of my best
nights’. Another participant called Ken, a student,
quipped, ‘because this is the first time I’m seeing
Timaya perform, it is actually fun’.
There were lots of positive comments,
commendations and testimonies from participants.
This is a good omen for the season 7 of the MTN
Project Fame musical reality show, which starts on
July 19, 2014.
