Oge Chikero AttacksTerry G's Image

One of the entertainment writersrecently took on the image of Terry G, why it will be a difficult task getting any serious brand for Terry G. Read on, "Brands are handled byspecialists! These Specialists want to key the brands they are managing into big brands with huge value adding potentials. Nobrand wants to be associated with poverty, low lives, drunkardsor marijuana smokers! It is a classthing. These professionals know that image is everything so you don’t toil with how people see you. They also know that the maxim that says “show me your friends and I can tell who you are” is 100 percent correct so they run these big brands with these laws making sure they don’t associate their brands with brands that pass wrong messages. Unfortunately Terry G has failed woefully in this area of his musical career which is very key in today’s entertainment set up world over. The likes of Tuface, Psquare, Dbanj, Sammy Okposo, BasketMouth, even Davido who just arrived are making humongous income through brand endorsements. The fact is, Terry G is meant to be among Nigerian musicians milking the new wave of celebrityincome generation- brand endorsements. He commands huge attention in the Nigerian music industry especially when you look at the fact that we are now in a global attention driven economy . Terry G has the swag and huge influence needed to make any product or service popular in thispart of the world but he has ignorantly modeled his brand to represent “Agberos” and no sane brand wants to be associated with that kind of personality. He can’t even get lucky with Dry Gin companies because they are also after class. When Terry G went to NowMusic, I thanked God because I know they could have helped repackage him but again his stubborn self worked against him, he didn’t last with the NowMusic family! Its a pity. The only solution is to re brand by re-inventing himself into a new and more commercial brandthat makes him appealing to the corporate headquarters of big multinationals like MTN, NigerianBreweries, Guinness, Globacom, AirTel etc. Its good that he has shaved his dreadlocks but that’s the physicalstep, he has to also shave it psychologically too so his fans can see a matured Terry G who does a brand of music that has meaning and commands respect!"

DEFINITION OF LIFE by Sir Rhema Hills

When you live in the dark,you can never see any goodthing. Come out of that darkness, Even when its not possible,create a light cos you are the light of the world. In otherwords,you are a star..... If you find it so hard to believe Then my advice for you is to leave it. But how long will you continue to walk away? This is reality and its very different from the movies you watch,even though its acted by humans. You shouldnt expect the goodies all the time-cos in reality actors can die if u knw what I mean. Face the truth,cos you and I know its the truth. Life is like a cycle,no matter how much you dodge that challenge,it will always be waiting for you.... Believe me,you can! Even when you keep saying you cant! I still want you to know that you can,its just a matter of time and choice.... Now dont be confused when they say to be successful you need to be patient;it never means procastination... It simply means your hardwork will pay for you someday.keep working. No matter how kind the world is to you,it can never give you success, Success only comes when you create it.... Its never too late to be successful,but its always too early to be a failure. Successful people are unique and rear,but failures are common; Never you choose to follow the crowd,cos you will not and never see your destination,you will just be lost. There are two major end results in life. FAILURE AND SUCCESS.... There are alot of failures,the world is filled with them,there are just few successful ones. Dont give up,stop crying,stop doubting,keep believing cos everything and anything is possible.... I have heard a lot of people say I am born to be great. Yes you are but speaking success is just one part of it and working/walking towards success are the other parts. For it is only when you work,then you can walk into success.... Sometimes I laugh when I see the obituary of a 92years old man and it reads celebration of life. The question you should be asking is did he really enjoy the life you are celebrating him for? Everyone has his own definition of life. Some say life is good,life is cruel,life is full of ups and downs and so on but have you ever heard the phrase: You can live your life the way you want it? Yes its true cos THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE can only be defined by your ACHIEVEMENTS. Dont just read this and say am not giving up,ask yourself,have I even started? If you havent then get up, Speak the word Work the word and Walk into your success.... If you still find it hard to believe,then I beg you to believe this one,its meant for you. 4/10/2012.

3 DANGEROUS RELATIONSHIP MYTHS by Rori Raye

So many times, we women are operating under false assumptions about relationships that cause us to feel sad, lonely, and disconnected from our man. These dangerous relationship myths are so widespread, it's no wonder so many of us have suffered the sting of heartache. I'm sure you'll recognize these and the pain they bring. Knowingthe real truth I'm about to share is nothing short of love-life changing. Relationship Myth #1: Giving = Getting This myth tells us that in order toget more affection and romance from a man, you have to become more affectionate and romantic yourself. So you buy him special gifts, tell him you love him before he tells you, cook him special meals, and offer him a lot of advice and encouragement. You become a giver, and you believe that, in time, he will reciprocate. While it's true that every relationship is give and take, the truth is that men don't fall in love because you've given them so much. They don't stay inlove because you're sacrificing everything for them. Men fall in love when they are able to give to a woman. They fall in love with you because theycan make you happy and nurture you. They fall in love when you take care of yourself and share your emotional experiences with them. Never give a man more than he'sgiven you, including expressions of love and encouragement. Hint: Don't keep telling him you love him when he hasn't said it to you yet. Relationship Myth #2: Exclusivity Leads to Commitment and Marriage This is the most dangerous myth we women have come to believe.From the time we first started dating, we were taught that the way to marriage is to meet a niceman, become his exclusive girlfriend, and that this alone willnaturally lead to commitment. Here's the shocking truth: What makes a man want to give up hisfreedom and single status for you has nothing to do with the fact that you've given him all your time and emotional energy. That's right - the very fact that you're exclusive with him when he hasn't committed to you yet actually makes a man think less of you. “Men fall in love when they are able togive to a woman. They fall in love with you because they canmake you happy and nurture you.” The moment a man smells that need and desperation that comes from having an unconscious agenda of how things "should be", his feelings ofattraction for you will fade. Relationship Myth #3: Showing a Man Your Feelings Will Scare Him Away If you've ever been afraid to tell a man how you're feeling because you're afraid you'll lose him if you do, then I'm certain this myth has been causing havocin your love life. Stuffing your feelings down actually creates more distance between you and a man. The keyis not to suppress your feelings, but to express them without drama or blame. Before I learned the truth about relationships and turned my marriage around, I was guilty of believing and acting out on all these relationship myths. Once I understood these core truths, everything in my love life changed - for the better.
