Popular Nigerian singer, Paul Play Dairo, who is known for bringing out great RnB hits in the late 90s and early 2000, is back to doing what he has always loved doing which is music.
The singer in a recent interview with TVC popular programme, On The Town, monitored by Nigeriafilms.com, stated that the music industry is now filled with young singers who have changed the system totally.
He said that he is planning a comeback after a long while he left the scene due to health issues but noted that he had to observe the market and see how he can blend along with the younger ones who are doing fine in the industry.
According to him, “The younger generations are doing well and I have sat down to watch the industry so coming back, I will have see how to work along with them.”
When Paul Play launched his way into the Nigerian music scene in 1999, riding on the goodwill and success of his late father, IK Dairo, he enjoyed solid patronage. Within a short period, he also earned an independent voice of his own, springing hit singles that include ‘Mosorire,’ ‘Happy Day’ and ‘Yes O!’
In 2009, however, his career was threatened when he fell ill in South Africa, while shooting some music videos for his last album and had to be rushed to a hospital. In his absence, the media was awash with speculations over the nature of the illness. It was rumoured that he had cancer, kidney failure to a spiritual attack. Few years after, he has clearly moved on, choosing not to dwell on the nature of the ailment.
