20 Feb 2014 Moving on, we debut music from Mavin records newcomer Di’Ja. Now Di’Ja is Mavin record’s best kept secret and has been cooking away in preparation to blow our minds out.
Alright, a bit of background on this new hottie in town. Now Hadiza ‘Di’Ja’ Blell who is part Nigerian and part Sierre Leonean was based in Canada.
There she apparently was quite a force to reckon with over there. Such that the lady was nominated for the Best Urban/R&B Single at the 2009 Canadian Radio Music Awards and won the 2008 Best New Artiste award at the Beat Awards.
Her new single Yaro testifies to this as the up-beat head-popping track is infectiously original in its style and delivery.
Sung in Hausa and Krio dialects, she is refreshingly true to her heritage in Yaro, and not to mention up to date with entertainment celebrity couples.
Di’ja’s got us hopping from foot to foot with this one. Go girl!
