The Future Awards, one of Nigeria’s leading youth events held yesterday at the MUSON Centre in Lagos. Brimming with national pride, in spite of the situation of the country, young people from different industries stepped out to be part of the event. And it was not just members of the generation next that were represented. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Reuben Abati and many others from the older generation took time off their hectic schedules to identify with a disadvantaged; often misrepresented generation trying hard to do things right in an environment where almost all that can go bad is going bad.
The event was anchored by rapper-beauty queen Munachi Abii and Naeto C; with beautiful performances from Bez, Essence, Omolara, Cobhams, Djinee, Lil’ H, Scales, Mo Cheddah, Wizkid, Kefee, Timi Dakolo, Waje, Street hoop and DNMT.

Country music is my passion and i'm so happy I came across this post. Who do you consider is truly the best country singer today? On one hand you have the ever so popular Taylor Swift as well as Jewel, but how can you deny people like George Strait or Allison Krauss? I need to jump ship here and say that my favorite must be Tim McGraw. He's so freaking awesome, don'tcha think?
