CAROLINE DANJUMA SETS LAGOS AGOG WITH GLAMOUROUS GIG; UNVEILS J2D AND LE SOUL
Newly established record label, Guepard Records, gave music lovers, style aficionados and entertainment enthusiasts an indelible and truly memorable event with its recently concluded ‘Glamourous Gig.’
The event which was held at the upscale and swanky De Marquee roof top lounge, also served as a listening party to officially introduce J2D and Le Soul; upcoming artistes signed on to the budding record label. Guests were treated to fantastic musical performances, lots of exotic canapés, and an unending supply of champagne.
Speaking at the event Caroline Danjuma, MD Guepard Records said ‘Music has always held a life long attraction for me and that is perhaps the chief reason for floating Guepard Records. Whilst I recognize that musical talents abound in the country, I am also keenly aware of the dearth of excellent musical and production equipment, inappropriate promotional activities, and other factors that may prevent indigenous and talented artistes from competing favourably with their counterparts worldwide. This is the void that Guepard records has come to fill; and even though we are relatively new on the scene, we are determined to ensure that we produce and promote only music of international quality.’
Commenting further she said ‘Our tag line is ‘The Epitome of Music’ which basically means that we are introducing a new dimension to the music and entertainment industry in terms of production, sound and the overall quality of music. The public should look forward to enjoying music from the label’s immensely talented artistes; J2D and Le Soul, backed by world class producers and a management that understands what it takes to create music of impeccable standards.
The first Guepard Records artiste presented to the public that night was Le Soul; an R&B and soul singer who draws influences from Boys II Men, Maxwell, and R-Kelly to mention a few. Asides being a musician, Le Soul is also a consummate song writer, having penned lines and collaborated on a song that featured the rap group; Trybesmen. He wowed the audience, and had his female fans swooning whilst performing his hit single ‘Ma Se Yen’ and practically brought the roof down when he performed his second single ‘Top of the Line’ with General Pype of Storm Records.
Also presented to the public that night were J2D; a sensational dancehall music duo from the city of Jos made up of Jifera and Slim D. Their singles ‘Hypnotize’ and ‘Be Your Man’ had the audience in a frenzy of excitement, with some fans actually climbing on stage to perform with them. The dynamic duo showed a mastery of stage and entertained the crowd with their electrifying, well choreographed dance steps.
Additional pizzazz was also added to the night when other hugely popular artistes showed their love and support to the Guepard artistes by performing their hit songs as well. Artistes such as Kas of the ‘Fimile baby’ fame, General Pype, The Kentro Crew, and Faze, had the audience screaming for encore performances.
