American rapper Rick Ross, known for his interest in Nigerian and African music, is working on an African-themed album. During a recent Instagram Live session with Nigerian rapper Blaqbonez, Ross shared that his favorite song from Blaqbonez is the hit single “Bling,” featuring Amaarae and BNXN. Blaqbonez explained that “Bling” was inspired by his disappointment at losing the Best Musician award to Kenyan artist Kaligraph Jones at the Soundcity MVP Awards.

Recently, Ross teased a new song that includes a snippet of Blaqbonez’s verse, hinting at a collaboration. This collaboration was confirmed during their Instagram Live session, with Ross continuing to develop his album featuring artists from across Africa. Earlier this year, Ross mentioned Nigerian artists Portable and Odumodublvck as potential collaborators and later discussed Afrobeats with Odumodublvck in another Instagram Live session.

Ross’ African-themed album is expected to feature a range of artists, including Nigerian Grammy-nominated star Ayra Starr, Ghanaian dancehall artist Stonebwoy, and Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz. This project marks a return to Ross’ previous collaboration with Nigerian duo P-Square on the remix of their hit “Beautiful Oyinye” in 2011.

Popular Nigerian music executive Don Jazzy recently called out a food vendor who gave him free nkwobi—but only on the condition that his star artist, Rema, would perform for free at her upcoming event.

In a video he shared on Instagram, Don Jazzy recounted the surprising encounter, explaining how the vendor insisted on giving him the dish without asking. He accepted and enjoyed the meal, but then was hit with the unexpected request to have Rema perform at no cost.

“That’s why I don’t like freebies anymore,” Don Jazzy said. “You just give me free nkwobi out of nowhere, and suddenly you want me to return the favor with Rema? How does that even make sense? What kind of exchange rate is this, all because of nkwobi?”

“I don’t know how or why you would feel blessed and happy by singing some of the songs that slave owners wrote and forced them to sing and pass down through generations while bearing and torturing your ancestors. Makes no sense. Do your research! Ignorance is not Godly!”
