Rationale of the Black Panther and the Iron Musical Throne
The Black Panther signifies power, struggle, freedom and empowerment of the black race. MMR 2013 is celebrating music & fashion icons who have been recognized internationally and as such have put us (Nigeria) on the world map. “Panthers” are known for their extra-terrestrial strength and these iconic pioneers are determined men and women who are not only passionate but believe in hard work.
The Iron Throne represents the political relationship between both fields (fashion and music) metaphorically. Fashion has always needed music to get to a certain level of acceptance by the public. And this year, as seen in “The Game Of Thrones“, MMR is filled with suspense, intrigue and lots of power; the fashion gurus will literally ride on music to showcase their inherent creativity.

As you know, the original was a huge success which enjoyed major airplay all over Nigeria as well as in the UK, Malaysia, South Africa, Dubai, Ghana and Benin Republic. However, it wasn't enough, hence the need to produce the remix. After pondering over the idea for over a year, Seun Kuti, Davido, Vector and Kayswitch were called upon to add their artistic skills since they are all masters in this game. All 4 of them came with loads of hits behind them to bless the track while Shank laced the original chorus with a few bars and of course Sarz on the decks lacing out the beat as usual and Dr Frabz helped with the mixing and mastering.
To drop a remix like no other “Mother of all remixes”, Patrick Elis who shot the video in the ghetto and urban parts of Lagos and added another creative ghetto element to this master-piece. The cameos in this project doubled the original. They include General Pype, B-Red, Ghetto P, Dr Frabz, Npz, Ice-berg Slim, Danagog, Efa, Pelli, Deevee (DB Records), MoBlow to mention a few.

[Music] : DJ Jimmy Jatt – Victory Song Ft. Grip Boiz & Ice Prince
World renowned Cool DJ Jimmy Jatt shows that he knows no other way except winning as he teams up with GRIP Boiz( Yung L , Endia and J. Milla) for his brand new single titled Victory Song. Produced by the prolific Chopstix, Victory Song is a celebration of the main tenets of the Hip Hop genre, as Yung L , Endia and J. Milla industriously work every spare bar on the soul-ridden instrumental, urged on by Ice Prince in his role as the song’s drill sergeant; all combining to deliver a performance which shows hope for Nigeria’s slumbering hip-hop industry. With Victory Song, Jimmy Jatt once again shows his preference for going against the grain- something he more than successfully does on this offering.
When people see one in the spotlight, often times, they only see the beauty, glamour, perfection, and fame. Little do they know that this spotlight that seems so glorious, also serves as armor. Armor that protects oneself and the ones we love from the daggers of hurt and hate people throw at us.
The spotlight also disguises the darkness that we are sometimes enveloped by ̶ the darkness of emotional turmoil and pain that we are sometimes afraid to reveal to the world for fear of being misjudged. But there comes a time in life when this veil of darkness must be discarded.Because only then will healing occur.
And so this is my liberation song. A song that expresses my pain with no inhibitions. Upon hearing this song, people will talk. Some may ridicule. Some may judge. But I’m not afraid. What I am more afraid of is living a life burdened by darkness. This is me, as honest as can be, my very essence.
