Well, singer Wande coal has been quiet since the beginning of the year.
Maybe he doesn’t have much to say or sing as the case maybe. But while the young hit-maker kept mute, rumour mongers got busy, spreading tales of a marijuana session gone awry, and his alleged admission in rehab.
Of course he’s denied the rumours and made public appearances to convince doubting Thomases he’s still in good shape.
But, rather than pay undue attention to the speculations, the debutant has been busy in the studio doing what he knows how to do best -writing songs and laying vocals on Don Jazzy-produced beats. Sources say Wande is recording materials for a second album already, as well as for an upcoming Mo Hits All Stars project.
And now, NET has learnt that the Mushin-bred act is set to perform in two cities in the United State of America: Washington, DC and New York City will play host to the Mo’hits signee on February 26, 2010 and March 13, 2010 respectively. It’s the first time he’s performing in the US since he became his own man; since he became a major hit-maker, with a repertoire that’ll make even his mentor D’Banj green with envy.
The US concert is being put together by Ariya Entertainment and Big Moose. Guests are expected to pay up to $60 dollars for the New York show.
A source close to the artiste told NET ‘‘yes it is true he will be touring the US. In fact, he is leaving Nigeria today” (Tuesday February 23).
We could not reach him for confirmation, but a member of the Mo Hits All Stars told us ”We’re all due for the US; even D’Banj is leaving this weekend or early next week”.
Wande Coal made waves with his debut album ‘‘Mushin to Mo Hits’’ last year with hit songs like ‘‘bumper 2 bumper’’, ‘‘you bad’’ and ”taboo” becoming national anthems.
Wande clocks 25 this year (he was born on October 18, 1985)
