Recently, news broke on social media that Afrobeats star Nasboi signed with a new platform.
The news shared on some digital blogs announced that the singer has been signed by CREAM Platform which is company owned by Nigerian music icon D’banj that offers distribution and Gaming services.
The news has now been debunked by Eminent Music in a press release that reveals that Nasboi remains contracually tied to the label.
In the press release shared by Nasboi on his social media page, he clarified that his partbership with D’banj’s CREAM is in ambassadorship capaciyty and his signed to Eminent Music and ONEepm.
“Our attention has been drawn to a publication circulating on social and print media, which may have been widely misconstrued that our Artist the Afrobeats star Nasboi has been signed by the CREAM Platform, a DIY distribution and gaming service company owned by Nigerian Music icon D’banj.
Eminent Music would like to state emphatically that this news is inaccurate. Nasboi has remained signed to the label since Febuary 2023, and his landmark musical journey is solely distributed by the global reputable company ONErpm, whose support and partnership, have remained both crucial and respected by the Eminent Music family.
It’s important to note that Nasboi is a celebrated entertainer with unique characterization, his versatile artistry, has distinguished him as a celebrated content creator and magical influencer, little wonder his skill is widely sought after by local and international brands.
The nature of his job as a content creator/influencer often requires him to work with different platforms, to achieve their cooperative goals. However, as far as his fast evolving and successful musical career is concerned, Nasboi is currently contractually signed to Eminent Music and ONErpm.
The public is hereby enjoined to uphold this statement as true and identify with the same. We regret the stress the said circulating publication may have caused our partners at ONErpm and all admirers of the label’s work and indeed NasBoi’s fans.
The relationship between Eminent Music and Nasboi is stronger than ever. Under the label’s watch, he has released the hit-filled EP ‘INIT’, headlined a historic sold-out concert in December 2024,and Nasboi recently secured a well-deserved Headies Next Rated nomination.”
Since kicking off his career under Eminent Music, Nasboi has become one of Nigeria’s fast-rising musician thanks to his viral hit records ‘Umbrella’ featuring Afrobeats icon Wande Coal and ‘Could This Be Love’ featuring Award-winning singer Chike.
The songs which are among the singles on his star studded EP ‘INIT’ contributed to earn him a Next Rated nomination for the 17th Headies where he will be competing with rappers OdumoduBlvck and Shallipopi, as well as, street hop star Ayo Maff.

Don't comment if you've never cried in a Ferrari – Regina Daniels

Nigerian actress Regina Daniels has clapped back at those criticising her over debunked reports that her husband, Ned Nwoko, took another wife.
Over the past weekend, the actress took to her TikTok account to clap back at her critics with a bold message. In a video, she confidently walked towards her luxurious red Ferrari while captioning it with a message aimed at her detractors, “All shades seen: Don’t comment if you never cry for Ferrari.”
The video quickly gained traction, sparking mixed reactions from social media users. Some supported her stance, while others criticised her for prioritising wealth over personal peace.
See comments below:
@official_regina All shades seen: don’t comment if you never cry for Ferrari before Comment if you fit affford the cloth @regaeofficial ♬ Money – teni
Last year you advised us ! This year we shall advice you !
Ur marriage, ur heartbreak, ur wondering husband’s pr**k, ur Ferrari, ur family life, ur polyamorous marriage, ur entire business my sister e not concern us.
I rather cry in a Ferrari ke?
I’ll buy my Ferrari and smile than to rather cry in one😊
Regina you no see pricy kind of marriage tell me say e no enter your eyes 😂😂😂
I can’t imagine valuing such things over my peace of mind. Go lower you may find crude😂
She’s actually correct, bcos only someone that has cried in a Ferrari can understand the SHEGE she’s going through. Don’t let anyone deceive you. Nothing beats peace of mind.
Someone genuinely happy won’t make such comments though.
This comes amid the backlash Daniels received after Nollywood actress Chika Ike announced her pregnancy and the rumors that her unborn child’s father was Daniels’ husband. Soon people began to pool into Regina Daniel’s page with questions and speculations, prompting her to deactivate her page.
However, both Ned Nwoko and Chika Ike came out to debunk the reports.

Wedding bell rings as Ruger announces that ‘I’m settling down this year’

Afrobeats artiste Ruger, real name Michael Adebayo Olayinka, has announced that 2025 is the year he will get married.
The ‘Asiwaju’ singer revealed that he was motivated to make the decision by the sheer number of people currently getting married.
He explained that the trend made him question his playboy lifestyle and made him consider his advancing age. He revealed that he will turn 30 soon.
Announcing the decision via Snapchat, Ruger wrote: “Everybody is just getting married. Got me questioning myself—how long will I continue this Playboy shiii? I’m settling down this year, period. I’ll soon be 30, tf.”
Perhaps in his playboy days, the singer had previously said it was possible for him to love five women equally at the same time.
He explained that he falls in love easily, revealing that gifts and compliments make him develop feelings for women.
It appears Ruger is not the only Nigerian celebrity who has resolved to join the married train this year.
About two weeks ago, Nigerian disc jockey Florence Otedola, aka DJ Cuppy, offered a heartfelt prayer that this year’s Valentine’s Day would be the last she celebrates as an unmarried woman.
Cuppy shared the prayer via her X handle as she wished herself a happy Valentine’s Day.
She wrote, “Happy #ValentinesDay to me! Manifesting that this is my last one unmarried. Lord, do your thing!”
The 32-year-old billionaire heiress has had a rollercoaster love life. She’s been romantically involved with notable figures, including former Super Eagles striker Victor Anichebe, but their relationship ended in 2017 due to long-distance struggles.
