Naija Video FAB

eLDee has always been one of my favorite naija artists especially with his dance hit Bosi Gbangba. But my respect for him grew when he took his music to a higher level with his track "One Day". elDee took this as an opportunity to address the current reality in Africa, while giving hope to our generation as he illuminates the dream that we hope will one day become a reality.





It's always great to see our celebrated artists using their talent as a vessel to tell the truth and hopefully challenge our current mindset.

**And of course I had to post some other great videos from eLDee**  Enjoy!!! :-)





So, FAB readers; what are you doing TODAY, that will help you realize your dreams for TOMORROW???

Stay FAB!

West Coast Video FAB


SONY Records' singer/songwriter, Tiwa Savage has finally premiered the anticipated video for her debut single "Kele Kele" a catchy song that has already created major buzz on the Internet. Although she is currently being managed by Tee Billz (former manager of Sauce Kid) of 323 entertainment, Tiwa Savage is not new to the scene, with singles such as "One Way Ticket", "Middle Passage", "Ife Wa Gbona" and an appearance on the UK's X-factor. Tiwa's beautiful voice and classy attitude has attracted the attention of many, including George Michael, Fantasia  and the executives at Sony Records.




Ready to officially jump start her solo career here in the USA, Miss Savage is clearly setting the stage for fellow female R&B artists from the continent. With music that can cross cultural boundaries and appeal to the African community and Western community, I have a feeling that this FABulous diva will be around for a while.



Enjoy the video :)




FAB looks forward to hearing more from Tiwa Savage as she furthers her solo career.

Look out for her album to be released in 2011!!

Stay FAB!

Platform H Launch, DC

Last weekend Ezzie and I attended the Platform H Charity Launch hosted in Washington DC. Platform H is an organization focused on empowering entrepreneurs through the building of strong relationships between young professionals whose minds are filled with fresh new initiatives, and business executives who have the resources to harness these great ideas into something beyond the scope of any one person. Platform H has recognized the existent gap hindering the success of young professionals and therefore are attempting to eliminate this gap so as to give the youth hope at a time where dreams are ephemeral.

The goals and objectives of Platform H are deeply rooted in the cultivation of social networking that not only propels the individual but propels communities as a whole. This focus on the bigger picture is highly reflected in their commitment to charity as they strive to develop social entrepreneurs and assist them in maximizing their achievements not for self but for a much larger global mission.





With performances, a silent auction and guests who flew in from all over the nation, Platform H created a great atmosphere that stimulated growth and inspiration within many of the attendees.
