Wash The Throne 2 EP 

B.A.D. ft. Flawless Real Talk - AVN & K.O.N.G.

Nigerian Soul Singer, Maka has done what many singers in her field would be hesitant to do - cover a rap song.
On Jay-Z's very controversial song off his 4:44 album, "The Story Of OJ", Maka interpretes the song in her own way with the title, "Boxed In".
She talks about black pride and the need to change the usual narrative of the way her people are being viewed around the world. She also encourages every person, male or female, creative or not, to use every unique talent or gift bestowed on them as a means to positively impact their immediate societies.

What if you met "The One" just before Christmas? Wouldn't that be the best present ever? That's what Maka's song is about. Meeting the person she sees to be The One just in time for Christmas. She fantasizes about the fun things they would do together over the holidays while at the same time hoping it wouldn't just be a holiday fling.

Inspired by being selected as the official deejay for this year’s Red Bull-sponsored “Battle of the Year” competition in Nigeria for breakdancers, producer Teck-Zilla delivers his neck-snapping and straight-up addictive new EP, ‘B-Boy Zilla,’ inspired by famed Florida turntablist, DJ Chief.

The seven-track project is absolutely brimming with breaks for the b-boys and b-girls, some of whom have already shown off their talents to tracks on here as part of the competition. The Nigerian-born deejay/producer was tasked with coming up with sounds that blended Afro and EDM elements and, suffice to say, he absolutely nailed it.

You can hear this in the high-energy sounds of “Mtoto B-Boy,” which flips Victoria Kimani’s “Mtoto,” and “Skelewu B-Boys,” which injects even more flavor into Davido’s original “Skelewu.” Teck also shows off his talents by taking on two classic joints from different eras (“Nothing But JB B-Boys” and “Sound of the Beast”) that are pure hip-hop Easter eggs.

“I already had a vast collection of break beats so it was pretty much a case of searching through my archives and also doing some research on b-boy music,” Teck says, adding that he completed most of ‘B-Boy Zilla’ the night before taking the decks at the Red Bull event.

B-boy or not, it’s impossible to not feel the good vibes emanating from these seven tracks. And hey, who knows, maybe it’ll inspire your inner breakdancer—if not, you’re bound to move in some way to ‘B-Boy Zilla.’ Teck-Zilla’s latest effort is now available for stream for your listening pleasure via SoundCloud and Audiomack…enjoy!

MAKA : “Precious Stone” 
Lagos based soul singer Maka is back in the forefront with her first single for the year entitled “Precious Stone”. The record is a passionate tribute to all mothers who regardless of the challenges they face still pull through to give their children the life they richly deserve. Inspired by Maka’s own mother whose name Ojiugo means Precious Stone in the Igbo language. Over a reflective horn-driven backdrop, Maka delivers a rousing performance that starts off mellow and rises to a crescendo as she reaches deep into her emotions. She talks about her childhood in a single parent home (she lost her dad at a very young age), the ups and downs but most importantly how her mother has continued to support her dream regardless of all the challenges they face. 
“Precious Stone” was produced by Producer/DJ Teck-Zilla of Str8Buttah Productions.

Lyrics
I ask myself a lotta times why I haven't done a love song for you, mama
It's been running through my mind, I guess I let my hustle take my time, mama
I'm sorry that I took this long, but I'm here now
And I'm singing this song
I'm sorry that I don't say this enough, but I don't take you for granted, mama
You're my world

Hey mama, beautiful woman
Inside and out, nobody fit doubt
Say you're precious
I should get you a precious stone
Diamond, platinum, silver and gold

Nne m o, ezeigbo nne m o

Gekwanti ka m koro gi ihie nne mere n'uwa
Oru oma o ruru n'uwa, nne m oma
O g'eteta n'ura, run into my room
To check if I'm alright, so many sleepless nights
O g'ejide m aka, o na nyere m aka
No she won't think twice, she would give her life 

Hey mama, beautiful woman
Inside and out, nobody fit doubt
Say you're precious
I should get you a precious stone
Diamond, platinum, silver and gold

Hey mama, beautiful woman
Inside and out, nobody fit doubt
Say you're precious
I should get you a precious stone
Diamond, platinum, silver and gold

Nne m o, ezeigbo nne m o (4x)

Hey mama, beautiful woman
Inside and out, nobody fit doubt
Say you're precious
I should get you a precious stone
Diamond, platinum, silver and gold
