Kunle Remi: Not All Films Are Cinema-Worthy
Nollywood actor Kunle Remi believes that not every film labeled as cinematic truly deserves the title. In an interview with Hip TV, he pointed out that many Nigerians, including filmmakers, often confuse TV-quality productions with genuine cinematic experiences.
Remi used director Kunle Afolayan as an example, noting that Afolayan’s work exemplifies true cinema, while he might not be as successful with TV projects due to his focus on cinematic filmmaking. Remi also mentioned that he can easily identify rushed and poorly executed films, finding it humorous when producers claim to shoot cinema films in just five days.
Remi emphasized that his intention is not to discourage emerging filmmakers but to encourage them to accept constructive criticism. He urged filmmakers to understand the difference between cinema and TV films, which he believes is essential for the growth of the industry. Remi advised filmmakers not to take offense when their work is critiqued, as this feedback is a valuable part of the learning process.
It has been reported that Nigerian dancer Poco Lee has been arrested in the UK. It was shared that the singer was arrested based on rape allegations against him.
The case was also shared by a US artist, Ms Jorgi, who said she had an encounter with the singer to play her song, after which she and her friend were allegedly sexually assaulted by him. She added that they were able to fight him off and run away.
The singer reportedly said he wished she had reported the alleged incident earlier to avoid another case like this.
The Jonas Brothers are back, and they have announced that they will be having concerts at Madison Square Garden on August 20, August 21 and August 22, 2026.

Nigerian singer Davido speaks to his colleagues and shares that it is time for them to take a step back and let upcoming and rising stars shine.
“This is me and my contemporaries’ last 5–6 years. I am not going to be 40, still dragging the spotlight with guys in their 20s. Jay-Z took a break and he is doing his thing.”
“I can take a 10-year break, come back, and still do a 50-arena tour. I have the catalogue. I might decide not to make another song for the rest of my life, and nobody is touching my catalogue.”
“There are so many other things music should be able to help you branch into. I am not saying we should retire. But I am not going to be 40 and dragging the spotlight with some 20-year-old kid.”
