IJE | THE JOURNEY




IJE tells a tale of Chioma, a child growing up in the Nigerian countryside, who warned her restless sister, Anya, about the trappings of the American Dream. Now ten years later, Anya is accused of killing three men in a Hollywood Hills mansion—one of them her record producer-husband. Chioma travels from Nigeria to Los Angeles, and with the help of a young, unproven attorney, discovers that the dark secret her sister wants to keep hidden might be the only thing that can win her freedom. Directed by the talented up and coming Nigerian director Chineze Anyaene, this is an effort that truly deserves an applaud for the Nigerian film industry, be on the look out.

Nneka | Heart beat on David Letterman



"What is life without knowing that death comes?" asks the Nigerian-German singer-songwriter Nneka Egbuna in "Mind vs. Heart." If you're going to wax philosophical on a pop record, you better be able to back it up with gravitas and some great music. Luckily, Nneka has plenty of both. She has a husky, supple voice and is equally adept at blasting out guitar anthems ("Focus") and sauntering through neosoul rave-ups. She's clearly listened to Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu, but the production on Concrete Jungle, by DJ Farhot, is both inventive and inviting. Much of the music here has been previously released in Europe and Africa, where Nneka is already a cult star. It's time the rest of us caught up with her. via Rolling Stones

New Beats by Dr. Dre

The new year, starts with much improved headphones from the super-producer Dr. Dre. Seen on celebrities on likes of Kanye West, Pharell and Lady Gaga. With precision engineered, advanced speaker design, powered amplification and power noise cancellation, it's intended, that you hear the music the way the artists and producers intended. I personally like the very slick design and the choice of colors used on it,red and black, besides the high defination sound quality, i think it's a good buy. They are slated to be in stores by next month, probably hook up your loved ones for the valentines , Check out the pics

Day 1: The Mission

Hey world, this is the sky captain here, we are going to be flying in an altitude of 30,000 feet above the ground. On this trip you are going to be served with the latest news popping from around the world. Most of you are probably wondering what does 'cream couture' even mean. Well, 'cream' in hip-hop usually represents all that is fresh and couture is used to describe high fashion. My take on it is, the things that bring these two words together, designs, fresh music, art, fashion and technology and these are what your gonna be served with on your journey. So we are going to take a look at some spots I admire and love. So put your seat belts on, seat back and enjoy the ride. Skycaptain
