BLACKTRIBE...SO "ADDICTED"


As Blacktribe prepares for their album release on December 7th, friends and fans of the group will host them to a pre-release party in Festac Town on December 4th, 2009.
Another party that will attract lots of major players in the entertainment industry is slated for December 9th at La Cachette club in G.R.A, Lagos . Several artistes such as 2Face Idibia, Faze, Timaya, Dagrin, Sound Sultan, OJB, Klever Jay, Danny Young, among many others have confirmed their attendance. The privileged few that have listened to the album described it as a brilliant effort.
Blacktribe’s album entitled Addicted has 15 tracks and it features acts like; 2Face Idibia, Sound Sultan, Timaya, OJB, Mallam Spicy and Prince Banton. The album was produced by some of the best crop of producers in the country which include the likes of K-Solo, Spanky, J-Sleek, Dr. Frabs, OJB and Jiggy Jegg. Some of the tracks on the album are Chacha, Ife, Trusted Friend, Ganja, Gbabeski, Follow Me Go, Story, Leave Am, My Size, U Make Me Wanna, 2nite, Wondale, Chikito and Addicted. Two videos from the album, Chikito and Trusted Friend were shot in South-Africa. The video for Trusted Friend has been enjoying massive rotation on different TV stations for a while before the duo followed suit with the second video; Chikito last week to herald the album release.
The group has no doubt come a long way in the music industry. They recorded their first single in 1999 titled Be Ma Girl featuring 2Face Idibia and Blackface of the defunct Plantashun Boyz and it was produced by Paul Play. Accordingly in 2000, they recorded another successful single titled Nino and it turned out to be another hit. It was produced by ace producer, Nelson Brown
Due to their growing popularity then, they rocked so many concerts in the country and they are still doing same till date.  Some of the most popular shows they have performed at are Star Trek, The Play Safe Campus Tour for the awareness of HIV/AIDS, Y’hello Africa, Taraba and Benue States government organized Peace Concerts, Big Brother Nigeria Show, MTN 2Face & Friends Tour, amongst others.
