Nigerian pop singer, Olamide, is on the verge of releasing his next studio album, Uy Scuti, and to whet the appetite of his teeming fans, the singer released the song, Rock.

Although the song was released some weeks back, it maintains the number two spot on the Top 100: Nigeria Apple Music chart.

More so, the song has a mass appeal among revellers around the world and has found its way to the number nine spot on the Top Triller Global chart.

For those who do not know the meaning of Uy Scuti, it is a red supergiant star in the constellation Scutum.

It is considered one of the largest known stars by radius and is also a pulsating variable star, with a maximum brightness of magnitude 8.29 and a minimum of magnitude 10.56.

It has an estimated radius of 1,708 solar radii (1.188×109 kilometres; 7.94 astronomical units), thus a volume nearly five billion times that of the Sun.

It is approximately 2.9 kiloparsecs (9,500 light-years) from Earth. If placed at the centre of the Solar System, its photosphere would at least engulf the orbit of Jupiter.

Currently, the singer is trending at the number two spot in the Nigerian Twitter space with over 34,000 tweets.

Speaking on the rap artiste’s forthcoming album, popular social media influencer, JJ Omojuwa, said, “If you know the meaning of ‘Uy Scuti’, you’d understand that as the greatest rapper of the last decade goes, no star’s bigger than Olamide.

“Twitter, especially, allows for triggering posts to get attention; but when that gives way to rationality, there’s no debating it.”

Another Twitter user, Ayodeji, via his handle @AyoJaguda, wrote, “Olamide is the rap artiste of the decade, if you have a problem let me know.”

Also, @Klassique_YBNL believes that the iconic rapper has been a major influence in the entertainment industry since 2012.

He said, “Olamide influenced all these artistes to start running their own label. Man created his barely 2 years into his career in 2012. His success makes them followed suit. He started December yearly show ‘OLIC’ 2014. Started the culture of yearly album since 2011. Influencer toh bad.” (sic)

Popular Nigerian activist, VeryDarkMan, has reacted to the revelations of his demise by prophets.

Two prophets from Nigeria and Ghana had given revelations about VeryDarkMan’s death.

One of the unidentified prophets, in a video while addressing his congregation, said in Yoruba: “There are activists in this country that they will soon end in Nigeria. One of the activists will be imprisoned. The other one will be killed because they said they have nothing to lose.”

The second prophet said: “This is for VDM. Bad politicians have taken him to a river. VDM is dead in the river but still alive in the physical world. And it’s very bad for your face to be inside a river. Whether VDM likes it or not, he will leave the world unexpectedly.”

Reacting to the videos in a post shared on his Instagram page on Sunday, VeryDarkMan, also known as VDM, stated that death is inevitable.

He further asked the prophets to see a vision about how Nigeria will be great.

“You heard the pastor, although he didn’t mention my name, but he made reference to what I usually say, which is I have nothing to lose. That’s number one.

“You are seeing vision for me as if I’m one person that sees himself to be important. I’m not important. Death is inevitable and is coming for all of us. Tell us a vision about our country. Tell us when Nigeria will be a great country.”

Former American baseball player, David Justice has revealed why he divorced his ex-wife, actress Halle Berry.

Speaking in a recent episode of the ‘All the Smoke’ podcast with co-host Matt Barnes, Justice explained that he left Berry because she doesn’t do house chores and lacks motherly instincts.

“I’m looking at my mom, I’m a Midwest guy. So in my mind, I’m thinking a wife at that time should cook, clean, and I’m thinking OK, if we have kids, is this the woman I want to have kids with and build a family with? And at that time, as a young guy, she don’t cook, don’t clean, don’t really seem like motherly,” he stated.

Justice said that the marriage could have been saved if he had known about therapy.

He explained that he was young and naive then and had only been in one relationship before his marriage to Berry.

He, however, maintained that he is not to be blamed for the divorce, adding that the movie star was “dead wrong” for making the world believe he was the problem in their failed marriage.
