COOL FM PRAISE JAM





Start time 4:27pm
Host Freeze and Amaka
Venue: Expo hall, Eko Hotel and Suites

Yes I know Christmas is gone and I shouldn’t be posting this now bla bla bla, well,  I’m sorry, really being busy and my lappy has being showing me its worth and impact in my life and I’m hoping that God will send an helper to buy me or aid me buy a tab soonest. J.

I got ticket to go for coolfm praise and was suppose to go with Op but Op had to travel and make Google money, so I picked up my phone and decided to pick one male friend. (don’t ask me who he is). But we didn’t end up going together because of unresolved issue. Who better next in line than my sister…yelz sister day out.

Opening act was Voice of Truth, they are visually impaired and they sang the national anthem and a track from their album titled ‘Simi laya jesu’ prod by renowned Wole Oni, for visually impaired persons they did well, after them came a guy called Donny, immediately the whole centre sat down like we were commanded to sit, he came out like he was going to blow us away, little did we know that he was going to fall short of the glory we expected of him (my opinion). Fey Fey came to our rescue with her Mariah Carey type of voice, Fey Fey is a very pretty girl, her orange coloured gown did good justice to her frame, it was well tailored and the cuts were in the right places, after a first song, which I can’t remember the title ‘cause I was thrilled by her voice, she also did a guitar version of ‘Karesimesi’. God bless Fey Fey and take her places IJN _.

The Pillarz were at their best, the lead singers pee pee was staring at me….why me the Pillarz were tight, they were on top of their game, though some members changed. Different from the usual faces I use to know then, their voices together brought down Gods awesomess. Pillarz if you ever read this and it’s not too late, Island loves you and they can’t wait to have you again,  Then came Dayo S (-_-) M H, if you understand what I mean, good, if you don’t, Google it. Peace dancers came next, wearing a confusing costume; some wore black T’s on camouflage, while others wore all, maybe not so confusing then, but their steps was not so tight but their concept was the ish, they got to a point where a guy sang Kore’s Somore and a guy used a babe as his mic stand, mehn the crowd went gaga, shouting about the girls arm, the lady beside me was all screaming in pain as if its was her, when peace dancers got of stage the lady beside me was practically advising me as if I was the girl to get a serious massage, that mic thingy was the ghen ghen.

Emma OMG, a comedian did his stuff well, his jokes were very realistic stuffs that would make you laugh, good guy. Buchi walked on stage and the crowd went frenzy, his opening act was fab, Buchi was looking older but the strength and swag of a Rastaman was still obvious, Buchi was worship personified on that stage, his instrumentalists are badt too. That cap on his head was a sign that he was still the Rasta he was and he will always be. Yaw and his Wazobia crew did unrepairable damage to our ribs, Yaw is one handsome guy I can marry for free, his pink bishop neck shirt was the perfect match for him *yawning*, this one guy called Ogbolo said this joke I really like, here it goes:

“One guy dey our church him name na bro kingsley, this bro get bad mouth odour and I don bear am tire, our choir master go say make we face each other dey sing, since I no fit bear am again na im I vex eat beans wey don sour for one week and salad wey den dey cupboard for one month, as I say make I dey go, I com site garlic and I put am for my mouth joing, I con say make I taste am if my mouth odour self don strong and a put my mouth for bulb blow breeze nai the bulb burst, I con nod my head say yes bro Kingsley go die on Sunday, I no come brush my mouth through out that week, on Sunday as I reach church bro Kingsley com dey signal me say make I come quick we won sing alleluyah chorus, as I stand opposite am, I con long my neck so that I go long reach am, na imi choir master give us go ahead, I shout aaaaahhhh, bro kingsley blind, I bind him neck com don continue dey shout the Halleluyah na im Bro kingsley con mad, hin stil dey Yaba Left till now.  I love ogbono to the core, he will go places, I’m sure of that.

Eben came on stage looking dashing, that jacket he wore was ‘It’ for me, Eben no fall hand at all, his worship was heart felt, he lead worship like I have never experienced, I’m still holding on to his voice, he took the spot light from the guy sitting 3 sits away who was winking at me…Eben I trip o. Mc Abbey is one very diplomatic comedian, cool guy, his jokes were simple and edge cutting. Tim Godfrey and the Xtreme Praise Crew are an acrobatic group, if you don’t exercise like me, then you need to book an appointment with Tim Godfrey and his crew. They will make a perfect gym instructor. They make you jump from one end to another, teaching you that to praise god takes more than just your hand and kneeling, your whole body must be involved in it. Tim and the crew have madt voices; I love their colour blocking dress code.

Akpororo came next and did his thing, nice jokes but also a wonderful singer….the guy can modulate Jisos….I think he should do more music in his jokes, It made him very distinct that night (Although Op later told me that he came to the entertainment scene as a singer before switching like Gordons). After Akpororo came the father of Nigerian Gospel music from way back in the 80’s in the person of Panam Percy Paul, same dance steps, same voice, Fresh grace. Panam should the true meaning of a Veteran, did all his popular songs like Jeus na big man, When Jesus came down and others, after that his son came with this very deep baritone voice to render ‘bring down your glory’, very cute guy almost identical to M.I just taller. I left during Dr. Panam’s ministration, couldn’t wait for Sammie okposo and infinity, my guy Ikpemhosi and other comedians.

Halima Abubaka, Ali Baba and his wife, Frank Edoho’s ex wife Cathrine, Gbenga Adeyinka, AY, Jedi, Genevieve Nnaji, Ush baby, Pencil, Vina of BBA house we all had the VIP treatment. I’m _ the VIP life. Coolfm Praise Jam was my Christmas carol and I did have a wonderful time thanks to Golden penny (Home of good foods) for the VIP tickets and the bag of good foods they gave everyone in attendance. You guys made my Christmas.
