It was the talk of the town when news filtered in that there is more to it than meets the eye in what transpires between the rising songstress, Waje, and self-acclaimed Africa’s rapper number one, MI. This feeling was further fuelled when a song by MI, One Naira, leaked to the internet. Most music lovers fell in love with the song because of the lyrics, melody coupled with the sweet voice of Waje on the chorus.
The chemistry had so much effect that many people began to insinuate that probably MI and Waje are lovers. But speaking for the first time on the news milling around about MI and her, Waje said: “Saying that I’m dating MI is just like saying that I’m dating P-square. I featured on their song, Do Me, which turned out to be a hit, and they are producing my album. “What is happening between MI and I is pretty much the same. I featured in his song and he’s also producing some songs for my coming album. What we have is a great working relationship. That’s all. I’m just happy with the outcome and acceptance that stemmed from working with these wonderful guys”.
While Waje seems unperturbed about the rumour, the musical video of her new hit single titled So Inspired is currently burning the music charts across the country. Waje’s So Inspired is for young people, most especially the females, to continuously aspire for greatness regardless of the drawbacks in their environment and life in general. In the video that was shot and directed by the ace videographer Clarence Peters in Johannesburg, South Africa, Waje connects with the oppressed woman. She plays the role of a distressed and abused female who would not give up on herself. Moreover, Waje is currently performing all over Nigeria and abroad, spreading message of love, courage and at the same time tidying up the production of her long anticipated debut album titled W.A.J.E (Words Aren’t Just Enough) which is due for release in June.
