AMERICAN hip-hop star, Akon, is set to sign another Nigerian artiste named Olawale Samuel Ojo, otherwise known as Wazzyno, few months after signing two talented Nigerian artistes; Wizkid and the duo of P Square,
This piece of information was made known by Glittaz Record, the artiste's record label.
According to Mr Bolaji St. Daniel Mattew, CEO of Glittaz Record, the deal will see Convict Music taking over the artiste's promotion on the international scene while his record label handles his promotions in Africa.
The CEO who is currently in the United Kingdom is expected to seal up the deal before returning to Nigeria in April.
There are claims that the two parties began the deal talks sometime last year after meeting at a party in Ghana.
Wazzyno formerly known as Don Soulja hugged the limelight with the hit single 'Tutu' featuring Terry G and Zee World. And based on his high demand, the budding artiste recently did a remix of the song featuring Terry G, Skally Mental and Zee World. The musical video is also gaining ample airplay on national airwaves.
Meanwhile, 'Lewo,' a new single from the artiste, is also gaining more acceptance than expected in the clubs and on national radio stations.
Speaking about his fast-rising career, the Ilesha-Obokun, Osun State-born artiste said his dream is to produce songs that will stand the test of time. "My dream is to produce evergreen songs that will last for eternity. That is why I've modelled my career after the likes of great musicians such as Akon, R-Kelly and Michael Jackson who are icons today.
I'm seriously working hard to make that happen and may God help me out," he prayed.
