* Written By Bimbo Olaitan.
Please don’t take this personal or as an insult,
Mr. Eedris Abdulkareem. I am a concern music
fan who likes you. I am inspired by your recently
recordings “I GO WHOOZ” & the new one
“MORINGA”. You’re not my favorite though, but
I like your person but has problem with your
personality in the face of the public. Discussing
with my friends that I have had close
relationship or that have really come close to
you. I felt bad hearing their views on your
personality and your words. It’s sad to hear how
humble and nice they said you are but believe
me people don’t see you that way.
I don’t know how or where to start from but it’s
no doubt that the only controversial Nigerian
music star Eedris Abdulkareem, is on comeback
spotlight radar with his recent singles. It has
never happened in the history of the Nigerian
Music Industry, that an artiste made a
comeback after years of silence. Eedris
Abdulkareem has always being a self acclaimed
last man standing. Looking back at his past
troubles and controversies excluding his glorious
years plus the dramatic scenario his song
“Nigeria Jaga Jaga” caused him. His issue with
50 cent, Nigerian Brewery and the presidency
banned on him then.
I have nothing against him but just piece words
of advice to you Mr. Abdulkareem. 1st I must
confessed I love your never say die spirit. But
my major problem with you was your past PR
and the way you present yourself. In all honesty
you deserve our applause because all the
trouble you had came fighting either for your
right or for others. The only ‘But’ has always
been your later approach and attitude toward
certain things and final conclusion.
Thinking of it, maybe the people around you are
scared to tell you the truth and you end up
getting yourself into the bad hands of the public.
Your PR then is not a professional I guess,
because publicity is not just about controversy
alone and bad ones for that matter. For
instance, your words on Dbanj and Don Jazzy
have become regular gist which people are tired
of; even your fans.
Listening to your new single “Moringa” which
trended for two days across the social media, I
felt happy for you because I can sense an
historical comeback. Please it will be in your
best interest to do away with your old habits
which I felt you are already working on.I was at
the Felabration 2013 concert and I was fortunate
to watch your performance and studied you. I
could sense you are humble but your image in
the face of the public like i said earlier seems
different.
Your two recent singles “I GO WHOOZ U” &
“MORINGA” are classic tracks that fit in with a
chance to become a great hit.
Though many have issues with your track “I GO
WHOOZ U” with the lines against Don Jazzy. I
was surprise also at first until I read the write-up
from Gbemi Adesuwa on the issue and I listened
to the track again before I understood you were
not actually dissing Don Jazzy, how many
people do you think will accept you are not?
This new track “MORINGA” is not my kind of
music though but it’s a good song and i believe
it has a better chance. Your next single and
conducts will determine if you can achieve an
historical comeback sir.
Please do away with the spirit of ‘I don’t care’
and start showing you do. You can become
great and celebrated again.
There is more money in the music business now
unlike how it was years back when you
championed the game.
Your new track “MORINGA” shows you can be a
good brand ambassador but you need to prove
you can. No brand wants to be associated with
an arrogant individual but a good role model.
Don’t get me wrong sir. Over the years you’ve
proven to be an individual who can be a good
role model but you need to clean the past
image people had of you and prove to us you’re
worthy.
We know you’ve done a lot for this industry but
let your music speak it and not you saying it all
the time alone. Reporters can push words into
your mouth, be wise and I know you’re smart.
Don’t let them bring you down like they did for
many other artistes. Also let me quickly say
this, it will be nice for you to take hold of the
boy called VTEK because the young man has
proven to us that he can be part of your re-
branding judging from your two songs with him.
We already notice his awesomeness on
PSquare’s recent songs including the
“Personally” song which was said to be co-
produced alongside Paul Okoye of the Psquare.
A word they said it enough for the wise. Kindly
think about all what I have said sir and take the
ones that you felt are truth into use. Please I am
begging you because I can see a future ahead of
you if only…
Thanks for your time.
What do you think?
