Naira Marley, Nigerian music executive and head of Marlian Music, has spoken extensively about the death of his former signee, Mohbad (Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba), in a new video interview released on August 20, 2025. The Afrobeats star maintained his innocence while calling for a reinvestigation into the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s passing, which remains one of the most controversial cases in Nigeria’s music industry.

Maintaining Innocence and Presenting Evidence

In the interview, Naira Marley insisted he had no hand in Mohbad’s death, which occurred on September 12, 2023. He presented evidence, including WhatsApp conversations, bank transactions, and other receipts, to show that he had a supportive relationship with Mohbad. Marley stated that he not only gave financial assistance to the late artist but also intervened to protect him on several occasions.

He addressed longstanding accusations of bullying, which have lingered since Mohbad’s exit from Marlian Music in 2022. While acknowledging tensions within the camp, Marley denied personally bullying Mohbad, adding that he often advised him against drug use and stressed the impact of mental health struggles on the young artist’s wellbeing.

Frustration Over Detention

The Marlian Music boss also recounted his two-month detention in 2023 by the Lagos State Police Command. He described the ordeal as unfair, pointing out that he was out of the country at the time of Mohbad’s death. According to Marley, his arrest was more about public outrage than solid evidence, and he expressed dismay that his passport was seized for months even after no case was established against him.

A Call for Re-arrest and Fresh Probe

In a move that has stirred further debate, Marley urged authorities to reopen the case and re-arrest everyone linked to Mohbad’s death, including himself, Sam Larry, and others previously accused. He specifically called for a trusted police officer to oversee the reinvestigation, citing mistrust in how the initial process was handled.

“I came back to Nigeria to support the police because I can see fingers pointing our ways. If they believe there is still doubt, then re-arrest us and let justice be done,” Marley said in the video.

Clarifying Financial Allegations

Marley also addressed rumors of financial exploitation. He explained that some of the funds he sent to Mohbad went into an account belonging to Mohbad’s mother-in-law at Mohbad’s own request, countering narratives that he diverted money for personal gain.

Additionally, he revealed that he has reached an agreement with Mohbad’s lawyer to transfer all royalties from the late artist’s works to a family member legally appointed by the court to manage his estate.

Public Reaction

The interview has sparked divided opinions online, particularly on X (formerly Twitter). Some users see Marley’s evidence as proof of his innocence and a demonstration of transparency. Others remain unconvinced, arguing that even if Marley was not directly responsible for Mohbad’s death, allegations of intimidation and a toxic label culture remain unresolved.

No matter what you do, no allow them kill you.

Legal and Investigative Background

In February 2025, a Yaba Magistrate Court cleared Naira Marley, Sam Larry, and Prime Boy of direct responsibility in Mohbad’s death. The court instead charged an auxiliary nurse and an associate with reckless negligence. However, Mohbad’s father has since challenged the legal advice that discharged Marley and others, and a fresh hearing is still pending.

The autopsy conducted on Mohbad’s body provided inconclusive results due to decomposition, leaving the exact cause of death uncertain.

Two years after Mohbad’s death, the case continues to raise broader questions about accountability in the Nigerian music industry, particularly regarding artist welfare and record label dynamics. Marley’s latest remarks represent not just a personal defense but a renewed push for transparency in a case that has gripped public attention and continues to stir debate.

In the ever-competitive world of Afrobeats, inspiration and imitation often walk a razor-thin line. Over the past week, Nigerian music fans have been consumed by a brewing controversy between two of the genre’s brightest stars; Omah Lay and Rema — following claims that one may have lifted the other’s creative blueprint.

The Spark: Omah Lay’s Revelation

The saga began when Omah Lay appeared on the Zach Sang Show in August 2024, revealing that he had shared the sonic direction and concept for his then-upcoming album Clarity of Mind with a fellow artist he trusted. According to him, about five months later, that artist released an album heavily echoing the very ideas he had disclosed. Feeling blindsided, Omah Lay said he scrapped large portions of his work and re-recorded the project from scratch.

While Omah Lay didn’t name the artist in that interview, the timing and sound of certain releases set fan speculation ablaze. On social media, names like Rema and Victony floated to the top of the suspect list — with Rema’s HEIS album drawing the most attention.

Screenshots and Social Media Fire

The controversy reached a boiling point on August 12, 2025, when an Instagram account believed to be linked to Omah Lay posted screenshots of what appeared to be an iMessage exchange from December 16, 2023. In the alleged conversation:

– Rema sent a track titled “Now I Know” (a song later appearing on HEIS).

– Omah Lay shared a file labeled “mara rough”, presumably containing his developing concept.

– The messages hinted at Rema showing interest in the idea and possibly collaborating on it.

These screenshots quickly made their way to blogs, Twitter threads, and WhatsApp groups, igniting intense debates over intellectual property, artistic integrity, and the blurred boundaries of “influence” in music.

Silence from Both Camps

Interestingly, neither Omah Lay nor Rema has officially addressed the leaked screenshots. Omah Lay has not confirmed whether the burner account belongs to him, while Rema has remained entirely silent on the matter. This vacuum of direct statements has only fueled fan theories and kept the issue trending across Nigerian entertainment spaces.

The Bigger Picture

Allegations of idea theft are not new to the music industry, but in the streaming era; where artists constantly share snippets, demos, and unfinished concepts with peers — the risk of creative overlap is higher than ever. Without clear public evidence beyond the screenshots, this saga exists in a murky space between perception and proof.

For now, fans are left dissecting lyrics, comparing sounds, and speculating about what really happened in those private exchanges. Whether the truth eventually emerges or fades into the background, the conversation it has sparked about ownership, originality, and collaboration in Afrobeats is unlikely to die down anytime soon.

Wizkid turns a year older today, and while social media is flooded with tributes and throwbacks, we’re taking a different route. It’s time to rank every Wizkid album;the highs, the lows, and the game-changing moments that have defined his journey from Ojuelegba to the O2.

This isn’t just fan love. It’s a critical deep dive, praising what deserves praise, and calling out what could’ve been better. Because even legends have missteps, and that’s okay.

– Replay value
– Growth and boldness

6. Sounds from the Other Side (2017)

Highlight Tracks: “Come Closer” ft. Drake, “Daddy Yo,” “African Bad Gyal”

Wizkid’s “Sounds from the Other Side” was his first major leap into the international market. It had ambition, dancehall, Caribbean-infused pop, and big-name collabs like Drake, Major Lazer, Chris Brown. But the album lacked soul.
Yes, it gave him global visibility. But it felt like Wizkid trying to fit into Western radio instead of bending them to his rhythm.

My thought: A strategic move but not a masterpiece. The most forgettable album in his discography.

5. More Love, Less Ego (2022)

Highlight Tracks: “Money & Love,” “2 Sugar,” “Frames (Who’s Gonna Know)”

The follow-up to Made in Lagos was always going to be tough. But “More Love, Less Ego” felt like a beautiful shell with no core. The production was elite, clean, vibe-heavy. But the writing lacked what Wizkid was more about compared to other Albums released by the music Icon.
It’s Wizkid at his smoothest, but also his most emotionally distant. The album didn’t push boundaries, nor did it feel like he had much to say. In many ways, it was a continuation of Made in Lagos, just less hungry.

My thought: Sonically pleasing, but too safe. For an artist of his calibre, we wanted more.

4. Ayo (2014)

Highlight Tracks: “Ojuelegba,” “Show You the Money,” “Jaiye Jaiye,” “In My Bed”

Ayo was a comeback and a stamp. Coming after Superstar, this project showed a Wizkid with more control, more polish, and bigger ambition. It had the hits, the hooks, the spiritual storytelling of “Ojuelegba.”

But it was also a bloated album, with too many tracks (19) and some clear fillers. A lot of it felt like a compilation of singles, not a cohesive project.

My thought: Imperfect but pivotal. An album that balanced fame and faith.

3. Superstar (2011)

Highlight Tracks: “Holla at Your Boy,” “Tease Me,” “Don’t Dull,” “Love My Baby”

This is where it all began — Wizkid’s breakout. He was young, hungry, cocky, and vibrating with potential. Superstar wasn’t just an album, it was an era that even the superstar we have today will never forget.

It changed Nigerian pop forever. The swagger. The slang. The sound. From “Pakurumo” to “Oluwa Lo Ni,” this was the soundtrack of a generation.

But let’s be honest; even as good as the album it isn’t his best project. The album hasn’t aged perfectly. Some tracks feel dated, and there’s a juvenile tone that’s natural for a debut.

My thought: A cultural classic. Not his best technically, but you can’t overstate its importance.

2. Made in Lagos (2020)

Highlight Tracks: “Essence,” “Ginger,” “Blessed,” “True Love,” “Reckless”

This is the album that redefined Wizkid for the world. Made in Lagos was sleek, patient, grown. It wasn’t chasing the charts — it was building a mood. And it worked. Globally.
Essence became the first truly global Afrobeats love song, and the album showed a matured artist comfortable in his skin.
Still, the album gets criticism for being too chill, not enough tempo variation, little experimentation. But that’s the point. Made in Lagos wasn’t made for the club. It was made for late nights and great moments.

My thought: A timeless piece of mood music. The moment the world took Afrobeats seriously and Wizkid led the charge.

1. Morayo (2024)

Highlight Tracks: “Morayo,” “Energy,” “Palm Trees,” “Sade,” “Better Days”

After years of smooth, laid-back vibes, Wizkid finally returns with clarity, heart, and hunger on Morayo; a title that feels personal, almost spiritual. 

The project is named after Wizkid’s late mother, Jane Morayo Balogun, who passed away in 2023. Her death left an open wound in the heart of an artist who, until then, had rarely spoken so openly about grief, loss or legacy in his music.

This album is Wizkid at his most honest and intentional since Ojuelegba first release.
“Morayo” (the title track) is a reflective, emotionally stirring opener that sets the tone. He’s not just singing; he’s telling stories. About love, Lagos, loss, legacy. There’s an intimacy to the lyrics we haven’t heard from him in years.
Sonically, Morayo balances mellow Afrobeats with bolder experiments — it’s smoother than Superstar, deeper than More Love, Less Ego, and less commercially calculated than Sounds from the Other Side.

My thought: Morayo is Wizkid’s most complete and cohesive album. It merges growth with grit, melody with message. After all these years, he still finds new ways to surprise us.

Final Thoughts:

Wizkid has evolved in real-time, from a young Nigerian singer to a global legend. His discography shows the growth, the experiments, the setbacks, and the wins.
Whether you miss the energy of Don’t Dull or prefer the silkiness of Essence, one thing is clear:
Wizkid is not done yet.

Happy Birthday to the Biggest Bird!

Wizkid attended with his young daughter, providing an emotional glimpse into his life as a father and artist.

The Broader Message: Lagos as a Creative Force

Beyond Wizkid’s personal story, Long Live Lagos is a love letter to the city that raised him. It captures the essence of Lagos. Its hustle, creativity, rhythm and positions it has as a central player in the global entertainment scene.
The documentary doesn’t just follow a superstar’s rise; it also talks about how a city gave birth to a sound that changed the world.

Previous Documentaries vs. Long Live Lagos

While Wizkid has appeared in other documentaries before, like Lagos to London (2018), A Day in the Live of Wizkid (2020), and A Superstar Made in Lagos (2021), this is his most complete and personal documentary to date.

Oscar-winning actress Angelina Jolie has publicly reiterated what matters to her above all… Motherhood.

While speaking on Good Morning America with Michael Strahan to promote her upcoming film, Maria, Angelina Jolie expressed how she feels about her kids describing it as something similar to Maria Callas’s passion for singing.

The actress told Strahan that motherhood is happiness: “You can take everything else away from me. Nothing else matters.”

Maria is a biopic about the opera singer, Maria Calles portrayed by Angelina Jolie. The movie also stars legendary actors Haluk Bilginer, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Alba Rohrwacher, and Valeria Golino directed by Pablo Larraín.

She and ex-husband Brad Pitt share six kids: Maddox, 23, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and Knox and Vivienne, 16-year-old twins.

Jolie’s two eldest sons, Maddox and Pax, worked with her on Maria as assistant directors, which described the experience as “amazing” despite having no interest in being seen on camera yet. “They’re quite private. Shiloh’s extremely private. They weren’t born with privacy, right? So I hope they can have that as they grow,” she said.

The Eternals star has always been outspoken on motherhood and the importance of education.

“I’m somebody who has tried to have a better education on foreign policy. I think of the amount of times it’s been summarized, ‘You’re an artist, but you also use your voice,’ you feel like, that’s just being a person,” she said. “I’m trying to understand what is happening within our world, why so many things are the way they are. I’m trying to understand how to best be a guide for my children, to make sure that they are good people. I don’t often feel like I’m doing enough. So when you say, ‘You use your voice,’ I feel like there are so many things I don’t quite know how to do or say at this time.”

Angelina Jolie underwent vocal training for her performance as Callas in Maria—a process that her kids were apparently witnesses to. “All of my children suffered through my early opera singing in the house before I got kinda good,” she recalled, adding jokingly, “which was a nightmare.”

Lawal Mayowa Joel known professionally as Mayor Glorious is a talented Nigerian Juju Gospel singer. He was born on 20th of September, 1993 and hails for Ibadan city, Oyo state, Nigeria. He has a Higher National Diploma (HND) and is the second born in his family and is currently engaged.

Mayor glorious is what we can call a real hard worker as he joggles his musical career with his pharmacy store. He decided to delve into music in 2015, after he discovered that he had a passion for the art and wanted to make use of his given gift.

Over the years in total Mayor Glorious has released various tracks that’s been a blessing to his fans as the melody of his artistry captivates his listeners in all tracks.

He released his first single in the year 2022, a track titled Iyanu. When he is not doing music he’s doing music in that he loves to sing and another thing he also loves doing aside singing is reading.

Mayor Glorious can be said to gain his inspiration from playing. He is currently signed to Juju Gospel label as he himself is a certified Juju gospel singer. His band name Mayor Glorious Band Music Worldwide or just MGB Music World is a beauty to behold.

He plays talking drum and mostly loves to listen to Gospel music as faith and believe keeps him going all the way. He is determined to achieve success in life and stay focused on his dream.

Congratulations to Alexandra Daddario and Andrew Form. The 38-year-old White Lotus star announced the birth of their newborn baby.

Alexandra Daddario made the birth of her child through a whimsical Halloween Instagram post. She shared a picture of her child in a bowl with some candy on him with the caption, “I thought this was a weird bowl of candy.”

The gender of her child is yet to be revealed.

The actress immediately received in bulk congratulatory messages:

“Congrats!!!!!!!!!” from sydney_sweeney

“A Halloween baby????? That’s the coolest thing ever!” from jacquelinegavriel

“CONGRATS GIRLYYYYY” from rachelzegler

“Best candy to nibble on!!” from michellemonaghan

Earlier this year, Daddario opened up about her pregnancy, explaining her “complicated” feelings after previously suffering a miscarriage.

“I’m pregnant and it’s all successful and everything’s healthy. ” She continued to share the emotional toll of her previous loss, stating, “I had been pregnant. Then I had a loss. It’s long and complicated, so I don’t want to be too specific.”

“Those kinds of losses and trauma are very hard to explain unless you’ve been through them.” “I really relate to all the women who have been through those kinds of things in a way that I didn’t understand fully before. It’s very, very painful.”

Cardi B vows to fight the lawsuit against her and her now-divorced husband Offset. In the lawsuit, the property owner of the mansion used in the music video of her hit single “Like What’ claims she and her estranged husband Offset duped them into using their property for the music video “without paying full market value.”

In response, the Grammy winner has vowed to defend herself against the “greedy owners.”“The problem is people wanna find loopholes and get over but IRON YOUR BEST SUIT BITCH, I’ll see you in court!!!” the Grammy-winning rapper wrote on X.

In her statement on X, Cardi B claimed the property owners were paid $10,000 in cash to use the property for 24 hours “We paid those people $10,000 IN CASH to rent the property for a whole 24 hours that same day 6am to 6am the next morning and we went over by ONE hour which we paid overage fees to the realtor for in March.” She also claimed the owners are trying to get more money from there through legal loopholes: “Now they wanna finesse us trying to say we told them it was a TikTok video when that was nowhere in the contract and like they didn’t hear the whole song playing and see how long we was shooting….Why would it take us 24 hours to shoot a TikTok? The problem is people wanna find loopholes and get over…”

To add to her defence Cardi B claims the owners were on set when the shoot was taking place: “There was cameras all over and both the realtors and the owners was there the ENTIRE time… I got pics and videos of them on set!!“

According to the mansion owner’s 11-page complaint, Cardi and Offset had their eyes set on using the property’s highly distinctive design and “devised a plan” to use it “without paying full market value.” The property owner, Bi LLC, alleged the ex-couple reached out through their representatives in late 2023 or early 2024 and booked the house anonymously “under the false pretense” it would be used for a TikTok video. The house was previously home to Justin Bieber.

The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, which included still photographs from the video shoot and noted that the music video produced during the shoot, “Like What,” had garnered more than 26 million views on YouTube since its release six months ago.
