KCee visits Mike Ejeagha to seek consent to sample viral song

KCee paid a visit to legendary highlife musician Mike Ejeagha, seeking permission to sample his viral song Gwo Gwo Gwo Ngwo on his upcoming album.

This visit comes on the heels of the song’s resurgence in popularity. This is thanks to its use in a viral dance challenge initiated by comedian Brain Jotter. During the visit, KCee expressed his admiration for Ejeagha and the impact of his music on the Nigerian music scene. The meeting was heartfelt, with Ejeagha visibly moved by the recognition of his work.

Ejeagha’s song, originally released over four decades ago, has seen a revival as it gained traction on TikTok, inspiring countless dance videos and challenges. Ejeagha has recently been visited by other Nigerians. Also, Brain Jotter recently offered to give the artist 2 million naira for the success of the challenge.

KCee’s seeking permission shows a trend to honour the legacy of music predecessors while incorporating their work into modern music. Also, the collaboration is to blend KCee’s contemporary sound with Ejeagha’s timeless highlife style.

Fans are now anticipating the release of KCee’s album. It seems to be a unique fusion of sounds that pay homage to the rich musical heritage of Nigeria.
