Although the rain maker has had his fair share of bad press, he is currently unhappy about the falsehood peddled about him in the media. Some media portals have reported that the singer has had a relapse and is back to using illicit substances.
In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the musician said that he has not relapsed, instead he is working on his album in the UK.
The singer said, “I am currently in London working on my album. Sammie Okposo was with us during the week, he made some positive comments about my work and I. The stories flying about me are false, I love my fans, I love Africa and anybody is free to say anything they like about me. God will help Nigeria and I will come back to support everyone. Azuka was my friend, he is always in Nigeria most times but in America, he is a cab driver and I used to give him money all the time. Why is he betraying his brethren? That is not good.”
The veteran singer could not talk much on the telephone because he was busy working in the studio so he handed the phone to his music business consultant, Omenka Uzoma, who shed light on the musician’s health.
He said that Majek has been in the studio working tirelessly on his album.
“Majek is here in London working on his album to please his fans. You spoke with Majek and you see that he is fine. He is in London and people can watch him on some channels on YouTube. According to the false report about Majek, they said he misbehaved on stage but AY show was one of his best performances so far. It is on YouTube. Every artiste differs in their level of creativity. I was the one that signalled to Majek Fashek to remove his shirt on stage. Majek did not misbehave on stage, he entertained the crowd and went straight to his room. Tuface, Sound Sultan went to his room to chat with him. We had to bounce a lot of people because about 25 people wanted to enter his room with him. AY calls me regularly to thank us for Majek Fashek’s performance during his show. Majek is here working in the studio in London. Even when we arrived in the UK, some television stations came to welcome us at the airport. Why is it that people like to condemn? Majek is doing very fine, he has his house in England, he has work permit, his song, Send down the rain, was made here.
“We entered the studio during the week and under an hour, he had made a song, the producer was very shocked. Things can happen to anybody, anybody can fall, but do not capitalise on that. Let them talk but no one can stop God. We did about five tracks before leaving Nigeria after the single with Tuface. We would do another five tracks in London, then have a song with one of Bob Marley’s brothers,” he said.
Talented rapper, D-Truce, has called on musicians across the country to always strive towards excellence if they hope to have successful careers.
The young artiste who is signed unto X3M Music, the same label that houses the soulful duo of Simi and Praiz – a product of the famous MTN Project Fame Academy, made the call in Lagos recently during the filming of the video of his latest single, Better Days.
Directed by Tolu Itogboje, the video was filmed in Ebutte-Metta, one of Lagos’ most densely populated neighbourhoods, and had scenes of children playing and running around in an environment that bears the hallmark of a typical ghetto.
D-Truce, who attributed his rise to fame to the benevolence of God and hard work, said the ghetto-like setting was chosen for the new video so that viewers, faced with life’s challenges, could be reminded that there are better days ahead.
He said, “Better Days is a song of hope to all those hustling and who are currently faced with a lot of challenges. It is a song to remind them that there is indeed a better tomorrow.
“As an artiste, I have been through a lot in my life. But I have come to realise that if one strives to always do the right thing, success would come. For those of us in music, doing the right thing and having the fear of God is the most assured way to succeed.”
D-Truce signed was snapped up by X3M Music in 2014 after and his style combines rap with other genres of music.

Men who have sex at least two times in a week can almost halve their risk of heart disease, a new research says. The study, which was conducted with over 1,000 men, describes sex as an activity that involves intense physical and emotional elements. Sexual intercourse may be a marker for a healthy heart because sex can be a form of physical activity, which, like exercise, gives your heart a workout.
Those who desire frequent sex and are able to get it, are likely to be healthier than others. Men who have regular sex may also be in a supportive relationship, which offers stress reduction and emotional benefits.
Regular sex is so beneficial that when you see a doctor he is likely to ask many questions about your sex so as to find out about your overall health condition. Apparently sex is not only good for your heart; it also keeps many diseases at bay.
For example, sex can actually cause you to get fewer colds.
Research has shown that couples who have sex weekly have a 30 per cent increase in immunoglobulin A, which is an antibody that fights infection. Sex can also help women have a more predictable period schedule, as a result of being exposed to male pheromones.
In addition, having sex reduces stress – for physiological as well as emotional reasons. Anything that will reduce stress is good for you as too much stress can lead to many diseases including cancer. Sex activates a nerve that has a calming effect. Having sex also lowers blood pressure, which reduces the risk of heart disease.
Sex can even reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and increase HDL (“good”) cholesterol.
These are the good results that a healthy sex life can give you:
Fewer colds because of an increase in immunoglobulin A, an antibody that fights infection.
Women can get more predictable periods because of exposure to male pheromones.
A better physical response to stress
Lower blood pressure, which lowers your risk of heart disease.
Lowers your bad cholesterol and increase your good cholesterol.
Helps to tone your abs, gluts and pretty much any muscle in your body.
Naturally increases estrogen level which improves the appearance of your hair, skin and nails.
Helps to improve your memory because of increased blood flow to your brain.
Increased feelings of motivation because of the release of endorphins.
As you can see, a good sex life is one way to stay happy, healthy and fit. So if your doctor starts grilling you about your bedroom habits, you will know why. And this is only the tip of the iceberg.
Sex has also been found to boost self-esteem and improve intimacy in your relationship. This is because sex and orgasms result in increased levels of the hormone oxytocin — the “love” hormone – that helps you to feel bonded to your partner.
As oxytocin increases, so do hormones known as endorphins, which in turn lessens feelings of pain related to everything from headaches and arthritis to symptoms of menopause. It can also help you to get a better night’s sleep.
Further, for women, having sex can help strengthen the muscles of your pelvic floor (the same ones used to stop urination). As you age, having strong pelvic floor muscles reduces your risk of accidents.
Of course, these benefits are assuming that you’re having sex with a mutually monogamous partner – otherwise you risk catching a sexually transmitted disease.
Sexual pleasure begins in your brain
Your brain and nervous system control your sex glands and genitals. This is why they also control your sexual desire, as well as orgasms. It explains why, for example, visual images trigger sexual desire in both sexes.
Your brain stem also emits nerve impulses that control erectile function. These nerve impulses navigate through the erection center of your spinal column to the erectile tissue of your penis where they trigger a chain reaction in the membranes of your vascular muscle cells.This sophisticated chain reaction depends on a messenger molecule called cyclic guanosine monophosphate, or cGMP.
However, this works in reverse as well. An erection softens as soon as another enzyme called phosphodiesterase starts to degrade the cGMP molecules.
Drugs like Viagra, Levitra and Cialis work by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, which may help maintain your erection. But, these pills will not lead to an erection. Your initial erection still has to be triggered psychologically. Without that initial impetus, potency pills will have no effect whatsoever. This is also why these pills are ineffective for many men who take them hoping for a magic jack-in-the box effect.
As you might suspect, because your sexuality is so intimately tied to your mind, anxiety, defensiveness, fear, and failure of communication are all destructive psychological forces that can take a heavy toll on your libido, whether you’re a man or a woman. They are road blocks to desire. So handle them.
According to Professor Gert Holstege of the University of Groningen in the Nederlands, “Fear and anxiety need to be avoided at all costs if a woman wishes to have an orgasm.”
How to improve sexual desire naturally
If you would like to take advantage of some of the health benefits that regular sexual activity has to offer, yet find that your desire just isn’t what it used to be, there are many natural tips that can help.
Your sexual fires may also be fanned simply by eating less sugar. High levels of sugar in your bloodstream can actually turn off the gene that controls your sex hormones.
Four other tips to give your libido a big-time boost include:
Getting physically active. Studies have shown that men who engaged in regular physical activity lowered their risk of experiencing sexual dysfunction. Remember, when using exercise as a drug, it’s important to vary your routine.

Former Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has again made shocking revelations about his time as the coach of the team. He gave detail account on Sunday via his Twitter handle with a link to his blog, SundayOliseh.tv.
Oliseh resigned in February after only seven months on the job. The former Eagles captain who left abruptly cited unpaid salaries and poor working conditions as reasons for leaving the job.
Oliseh said he had quite a difficult time with the Nigeria Football Federation, with some senior players like Mikel Obi, Vincent Enyeama and Victor Moses.
Of his near-death he wrote, “One day whilst coaching the Super Eagles in Abuja stadium prior to the Burkina Faso game, all of a sudden I felt dizziness, light headedness, headache and could barely stand. I managed to finish the session before calling on the doctor into my room who was clueless to what was happening.
“From then on it was sleepless nights, loss of appetite, high blood pressure and before I knew it I started losing weight.
“After several visits to doctors abroad nothing was found though the doctors found anomalies they couldn’t pin point the actual illness to.
“For weeks I was bed ridden, lost 7 kilos and could barely walk 5 metres without sitting down. My family was petrified and all feared the worst. One thing was for sure though: had I not taking that evening flight to Germany when I did, there was a strong possibility of a far worse outcome. Thank God for his mercies.”
Oliseh also took another dig at the NFF President Amaju Pinnick insisting the FA boss made false claims regarding coaches being paid up front.
He wrote, “On the day I was unveiled, the very vocal president of the NFF, Amaju Pinnick boasted to the world that he was going to pay me 6 months’ salary in advance, we were never ever going to be owed as he had procured sponsorship from Zenith Bank, that he knows I am the African Guardiola etc. These were declarations that not only added unnecessary pressure on us but made us hated by certain quarters as ‘prima Donnas.’
“We now know that, that was a ploy to make the world falsely believe that I was giving all the tools to succeed whilst intending to eventually starve us of tools to succeed in reality to have a scapegoat and employ his dream foreign coach for obvious reasons, as was tried failingly recently!”
Oliseh insists that the noise made by the NFF on the salary may have pushed kidnappers into targeting his family members.
“In October 2015, with the belief that I had millions from the NFF, kidnappers attacked a family member of mine’s home in Lagos, but thanks to God the intended victim was not at home.
“Shaken at the news, I called Mr. Amaju to inform him of my displeasure of his false public declarations in my regard and there and then the seed of resignation started to grow in me. Is this worth my peaceful family suffering?
“I signed my contract as Chief Coach of the super Eagles in July 2015 and was paid in August for July and August but did no longer get any payments till January 2016. My assistants were worse off as they received just a month’s pay as at January 2016. The NFF and its allies in public claimed otherwise.”
On the NFF technical committee he wrote, “The moment Ayansi was replaced as head of the infamous technical committee by Mr. Chris Green, we all knew that disaster and chaos was on the way.
“Chris Green is a man who late Stephen Keshi almost beat up just midway into the 2013 AFCON adventure in South Africa and eventually was going around all of Rwanda telling all who cared to listen that he won the 2013 AFCON for Nigeria and the 2014 World Cup qualification and not Keshi.
Alex Okosi, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Viacom International Media Networks Africa (formerly MTV Networks Africa)
Alex Okosi is the Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Viacom International Media Networks Africa (formerly MTV Networks Africa). He tells Saturday Beats how Black Entertainment Television awards have made an impact on African artistes
You rose to become the Senior Vice president of Viacom, what can you attribute your success to?
I think it is God and hard work and persistence and then having a strong team of people I work with. I have also great mentors across the board that have helped me. A combination of these factors has been a key to my success. I have remained humble and I also have the humility to make sure that I work harder than the next guy every single day I wake up. My passion is to be able to have the world see our youth culture so that they will all know that Africa has incredible creativity and great content and great people that can do anything in the world.
There was a time entertainment was seen as a job for people who didn’t have any other thing to do, do you think that perception has changed?
It has completely changed. Parents now tell their children to become musicians. The impact that Nigerian music is making around the world is awesome. Parents now encourage their children to be part of talent shows and even to become musicians.
Is MTV Base strictly about music?
No. It is about youth and lifestyle. We have demonstrated that in a lot of things that we do. We do contents that we know that can engage our audience. We also deal with issues that people face.
Did you ever consider doing music when you were much younger?
No!
So where did the love for it come from?
I have always loved music. I love listening to music. I am in the entertainment business. I love sports as well. My passion comes from the fact that music is an important aspect of youth culture and it enables the youth culture to thrive.
How were you able to convince the MTV network to set up MTV Base Africa?
It was being able to demonstrate that we can run a creative and profitable business. When we arrived on the scene, there weren’t so many quality music videos on the continent, so we had to train people on how to make quality music videos. We did music video workshops and we created free music videos for people. That was a way we were able to serve as a catalyst and be able to get the industry going from a music video stand point. I think that has paid off. You see today, whenever you are watching a music channel, you don’t even know the videos that are from America or Europe because the quality is high. And that is what has enabled our artistes to be able to travel to other countries because people can now accept the quality of their music videos.
But what other impact could it have had on the artistes apart from the fact that their videos have improved?
The award show is recognition of who is great. When you have a global award like the BET that would be broadcast for over a million people around and people get to see you in countries like France, United Kingdom and United State, it is just like the World Cup. I think such award raises the game because you compete to be a part of that stage. So I think it serves as a catalyst for improving the quality. We don’t necessarily do it for music videos to be better but we do it to recognise who is great in terms of being an artiste for that year.
At what point did Black Entertainment Television decide to include categories for Africans in the awards?
The BET brand is such a powerful brand. Yes, it has been US eccentric. We had launched International BET channel. For me, it was important for us to launch Africa BET channel. But before we did that, we introduced the Best Africa Act category. Through MTV Base, we had created an echo system where there is great music and great artistes. And including them in this category creates some exposure for us. The American market will also see the artistes in a big way. It was important for us to start building an opportunity for us, maybe one day, we can have a BET Africa award gala.
But the controversy that always crops up during BET award is the fact that Africans are usually not happy that their artistes are not recognised or given the award on the same stage as their American counterparts. What is your reaction to this?
The controversy gets a little bit lost. The BET award is a global award with a lot of categories, so not all the categories get recognised on the stage. There is a UK Act category, French Act category and then the US categories. Those awards are recognised on stage. But I think the main important thing is to recognise the opportunity that is being created, especially the exposure and the global recognition. This is sort of a building block towards having our own show. But in the mean time, let us start recognising the African brands through the awards. Anyway, we would still continue working on this and push the agenda. But our next frontier is to try and launch a BET Africa award.
