Reacting to the singer’s post, one of his fans posted;
“Never really done this before but I just had to because
is been long overdue and because you’re my best
Nigerian artiste. Plus I’m your No1 fan, so I’m super
excited about this. You have the most amazing voice in
the game, the most talented nigga ever. Congratulations
on this new album I’m certain it would be nothing less
than perfection, anticipating the finest tunes as always
and more blessings.”
Like most of Nigeria’s celebrated musicians, Wande Coal
started singing in the teenage choir at his church. He got
his break in the Nigerian entertainment industry as a
dancer. He continued improving on his vocals skills and
got signed to Don Jazzy’s Mo’hits records in 2006.
Wande Coal later released his debut album, Mushin to
Mo’Hits which was widely received across Nigeria, UK
and the USA.
In November 2013, the artiste parted ways with Mavin
Record with the record label siting irreconcilable
differences.
“It is with deep regret that we officially announce the
departure of recording artist Wande Ojosipe, popularly
known as Wande Coal, from Mavin Records due to
irreconcilable differences… Both Mavin Records and
Wande Coal have enjoyed a remarkable run in the course
of their working relationship. It is unfortunate that
conflicting priorities contributed to the premature
curtailment of a hitherto fruitful accord,” a statement
from the label read.
