Press Kit:
Nigeria’s music scene today is populated
with people trying to hit a goldmine. There seems to be no one who is
passionate about making music simply for the joy of it. Everybody and their
grandmother have hopped on the lyrical bandwagon. And that’s exactly what Sleeq
has jumped off with a refreshing new and melodious sound that puts shame to all
the racket-in-the-attic that blare through sound speakers.
Come July 20th 2013 S2DB Entertainment will unveil
what is expected to be its flagship tune. Something that should make the rainy
season worth it for couples, young or old. “The General’s Daughter” is a mellow
synthesis of sound and effect as Sleeq soulfully weaves a tale of his dangerous
entanglement with the daughter of a Nigerian Army General. You cannot help but
follow his drift as he wraps his sexy silky voice around a purposeful and
creatively produced beat that is sure to lead you to bliss. It is intelligence
and charisma that define this singer.
Sleeq is an “Abuja boy” who has been in
the music business since his undergraduate career where he managed to stay in
sync with the trends of the time by keeping vigil at Tuface’s Festac office in
the middle of the last decade. The last time we met, we sat in an SUV in Wuse 2
and he talked to me about his music and his life and his passion: the things he
holds dear. He talked about his brand of music called Legacy Music which he
says is a different kind of music: something thoughtful but authentic.
There is an African proverb that says you
can know how the day will end by first seeing how it starts and by the looks of
things Sleeq is sure to pull off a coup when he overthrows the current crowd of
potboilers who pretend to be singers. This man is going to be a General himself
one day.
