Shank – Ghetto Remix Ft. Seun Kuti, Kay Switch, Vector, Davido


Following the success of the original song Ghetto, which has won 2 awards already; best pop video at the Nigerian Music Video Awards (NMVA) 2012 and music video of the year at the Nigeria Entertainment Awards (NEA) 2013,Shank drops Ghetto Remix ft Seun Kuti, Davido, Kayswitch and Vector.
As you know, the original was a huge success which enjoyed major airplay all over Nigeria as well as in the UK, Malaysia, South Africa, Dubai, Ghana and Benin Republic. However, it wasn’t enough, hence the need to produce the remix.
After pondering over the idea for over a year, Seun Kuti, Davido, Vector and Kayswitch were called upon to add their artistic skills since they are all masters in this game. All 4 of them came with loads of hits behind them to bless the track while Shank laced the original chorus with a few bars and of course Sarz on the decks lacing out the beat as usual and Dr Frabz helped with the mixing and mastering.
To drop a remix like no other “Mother of all remixes”, Patrick Elis who shot the video in the ghetto and urban parts of Lagos and added another creative ghetto element to this master-piece. The cameos in this project doubled the original. They include General Pype, B-red, Ghetto P, Dr Frabz, Npz, Ice-berg Slim, Danagog, Efa, Pelli, Deevee (db-records), Moblow to mention a few.
Ghetto remix is street/club/afro-beat/pop and with 5 of the most talented artistes in Nigeria, fans are in for a treat

GO DOWN -- teeto ceemos ft shank


The anticipation for Teeto Ceemos’ official debut single has been steadily building over the past few weeks since the release of new visuals for “Missed Call” and the Adey-produced “Glory” which features Nayo Soul. NOW it is finally HERE and the official debut single from Fresh Boy Entertainment’s TEETO CEEMOS is one hell of a MONSTER single!
Featuring Nigerian Dancehall/Reggae artist SHANK excellently providing an infectious and catchy chorus and also produced by SHANK himself who brings those lush drum arrangements and head bopping musical milieu to the mix to great effects, “Go Down” sees Teeto Ceemos in superb fashion with his trademark witty punchlines, smart and captivating lyrics and sublime flow.
This brand NEW single is set to be the staple sound in the coming weeks and months on radio, in the clubs, at parties and everywhere in between so get ready to “whine up your waist and go down” as Shank says. We can expect nothing short of greatness from Teeto Ceemos’ debut album which is dropping later this year via Fresh Boy Entertainment.
Teeto Ceemos - real name, Toyin Tito Salako - was born and raised in Lagos in the early 80's. He fell in love with rap music in the early 90's after being surrounded by it throughout his pre-adolescent years. By the time he graduated from secondary school, Teeto was fully immersed in Hip-Hop music and the culture, even briefly forming a now-defunct rap group called Knights Of The Turn Table.

Premiere: Shank – Salute Remix ft Wizkid + Ghetto

Best known for his award-winning hit single Julie, Shank is a popular and commercial Nigerian pop artist with a unique and eclectic style. Born in London in 1983, Shank returned to Nigeria at an early age and grew up in Lagos. The sprawling metropolis of Eko inspired him to become the socially conscious artist and performer that he is today. From an early age Shank knew that music was his calling and was influenced by the legendary Fela Kuti who spotted his innate talent early and took him under his wings. Shank also drew a lot of his music inspiration and talent from his father who was a musician and part of Fela’s band. Shank studied Creative Arts at the university of Lagos further refining his artistic talent and travelled regularly between London and the states, developing the beginning of what is now a large Nigerian and International fan base.
In 2008 Shank signed to Starville Entertainment, a fresh, young and bold record label and entertainment company. His 2008 club banging hit single Julie propelled him to the top of the charts all over Africa and confirmed his position as one of Nigeria’s most talented and most popular artists. Later that year he released his 17 track debut Album, King Kong, which featured songs with Akon and D’Banj. Shank has performed on stages with some of the most impressive names in the industry including Mary J. Blige, Chris Brown, Fat Joe, Brick and Lace and Lil’Kim to name a few.
Shank is now working on his second album with Starville Entertainment. A more mature artist now, both his style and his message have evolved and the album promises to be amongst the most popular of 2012.   1. Salute (Remix) Feat. Wizkid   DOWNLOAD
