Let me just warn you real quick – I’m about to post a TON of videos today. Lol attempting to catch up for the last few days. Watch new videos from Burna Boy, Olamide, Reminsce ft Olamide and Phyno + a new joint from Timaya, after the click.

Check out the visuals from Asa, direct by Meji Alabi for the single, ‘Eyo’ (she looked a-mazing) + the official video for African Lady by Zucee – both after the jump.

Aww. Some of our music favs recently shared cute photos with their kids. Check out snaps from Paul Okoye of PSquare, Olamide and the Baloguns, after the click.

In fact, I actually kind of liked it. My reasons why, after the jump.

DJ Spinall, aka The Cap, just released a new mixtape for our listening pleasure. Titled ‘The African Grove,’ listen and download after the click.

I took a two second sabbatical from posting (just a few days) and it seems like 50 videos from Ghanian artists came out while I was gone! Not to worry, the bangers are waiting for you after the jump. Click for the new visuals from R2Bees, Stonebwoy and M.anifest.

Discovering designers who use African prints in a unique way is always fun. Today, the Fashion Bomb team shared new designers, Midget Giraffe, and the looks are on point. Aside from having a fresh name, I dig how they use the ankara in a fun, relaxed kind of way. Some of these outfits could def be worn to the office or out with friends.  Check ’em after the click.

Five years ago, Nigeria’s music industry lost one of its rising starts – Oladapo Olaitan Olaonipekun, aka Dagrin. He was on his way to becoming one of the biggest acts out of Africa when he was tragically killed in a gruesome car accident. 5 years later, we remember him. For those not familiar, a few facts about Dagrin, after the click.

Engagement rings are not all made equal. Some ladies like the classic square look, some like the opal shape, some want a simple band and others want a bling’d out band.  I took Glamour’s engagement ring quiz and the result was pretty spot on, I DO want a non traditional engagement ring.  Not green though. lol take the quiz to see if it matches what you want.

OkayAfrica caught up with 3 of Africa’s biggest acts – Ice Prince out of Naij, and R2Bees and Sarkodie out of Ghana – while they were all in town to perform at this year’s South by South West music festival. The four guys chat about who’s hot in music right now, performing back home vs. the US, Fela Kuti and more. Watch the interview after the click.
