The entertainer, whose real name is Iweh Odinaka, disclosed this in a video call shared on Sunday, marking his first public comments since being released on bail.

While reflecting on the experience, Poco Lee said Burna Boy remained supportive despite the seriousness of the allegation he was facing. He noted that many people would ordinarily distance themselves from someone caught up in such a situation.

“Nobody would have wanted to associate themselves with something like that, but Burna Boy stood by me, Jago and some of my other guys,” he said.

Poco Lee also explained that he was able to remain mentally composed throughout the period because he maintained that he was innocent of the alleged offence.

Rather than focusing solely on his own situation, he said his bigger concern was the effect his absence could have on the people around him, particularly his associate Jago and their business activities.

“I was just being myself. God sees my heart. My only worries were about my people. Jago could not do anything business, and I didn’t want to stress anyone,” he said.

The dancer added that his mindset would have been considerably different if he believed he had actually committed the offence for which he was accused.

“If I was inside there and I did what I was accused of, I would have felt I was paying for my sins, but since I knew I didn’t do what I was accused of, my mind is pure,” he added.

Poco Lee’s legal troubles followed his arrival in the UK in August for the Davido and Friends concert held at Crystal Palace Bowl in London on August 14.

The case remains ongoing, with Snaresbrook Crown Court previously scheduling September 15 for plea and trial preparation proceedings.

Poco Lee has not been convicted of any offence, and the allegation against him remains subject to determination by the court.

The YBNL star disclosed this during a live Twitch session while reflecting on his songwriting journey and some of the records he worked on before establishing himself as one of Nigeria’s leading Afrobeats artists.

According to Fireboy, he was part of the songwriting process for Immediately, released by Mystro featuring Wizkid in 2018. The revelation adds an interesting layer to his career, considering the song arrived before his own breakthrough and mainstream recognition.

Fireboy would later gain widespread attention with Jealous, the record that helped introduce his distinctive sound to a much larger audience and set the stage for his rise as a recording artiste.

Beyond his connection to Wizkid, the singer also revealed that he had written songs for another major Nigerian star, Tiwa Savage, during his earlier songwriting years.

However, Fireboy did not reveal the titles of the songs he reportedly wrote for the Afrobeats queen.

The revelation highlights a lesser-known chapter of Fireboy’s journey, showing that his musical career extended beyond performing and recording long before he became a household name.

Since breaking into the mainstream, Fireboy has gone on to release successful albums, earn major collaborations and establish himself as one of the prominent voices of contemporary Nigerian music.

“I wrote “Immediately” by Mystro featuring Wizkid. I have also written songs for and with Tiwa Savage”

The Dangbana Republic singer made the announcement on Thursday, September 10, 2026, confirming that the project will be titled 9 and is scheduled to arrive on October 9, 2026.

The announcement comes as FOLA continues to build momentum following a strong run of collaborations and releases. His recent single, Treat U Right, featuring Ayra Starr, and the Davido- and Mayorkun-assisted B4 B4 have further pushed his name into the spotlight.

Now, with 9 on the horizon, attention will gradually shift towards what the singer has prepared for the project, including its tracklist, guest appearances, and production credits.

FOLA has steadily established himself as one of the emerging voices to watch within Nigeria’s Afrobeats scene, and the new album represents another opportunity for him to showcase how far his sound and artistry have developed.

Interestingly, fans will not have to wait until October for another taste of the project. FOLA also revealed that he would be releasing a new song at midnight on Thursday, giving listeners something to enjoy while they count down to the album.

Explaining the meaning behind the title, 9, FOLA drew inspiration from football, where the number is traditionally worn by the striker leading the attack.

However, the singer has given the number his own interpretation, describing a 9 as “the artist you call when you need a hit.”

With the October 9 release date now confirmed, FOLA’s next chapter officially has a name, and he appears ready to prove that he is the number to call when it is time for a hit.

What started around a social media message from Sarkodie has since developed into a broader conversation about loyalty, professional relationships, and whether both artistes have remained consistent with positions they previously discussed privately.

The latest episode began on September 7 when Sarkodie addressed members of his SarkNation fanbase, encouraging them to support his music without dragging other artists. He warned against fan wars and urged artists not to encourage supporters who attack their colleagues in the name of showing loyalty.

Stonebwoy later responded, questioning whether the message aligned with Sarkodie’s actions and the principles he claimed the rapper had previously discussed with him privately.

According to Stonebwoy, he reached out to Sarkodie after his Royal Albert Hall performance in the UK to congratulate him, with the conversation reportedly lasting more than 10 minutes.

Stonebwoy said the situation became complicated after his own performance at OVO Arena Wembley, when Sarkodie allegedly posted another video that he interpreted as an indirect message. He maintained that only Sarkodie could explain the real intention behind the post.

The Manodzi hitmaker said he eventually contacted Sarkodie after noticing what he described as a series of cryptic social media posts. That conversation, according to Stonebwoy, lasted for more than an hour and touched on industry relationships, personal interactions, and the different ways artists approach certain situations.

Stonebwoy claimed Sarkodie told him that artists could not be forced to follow particular principles and would sometimes make decisions based on what worked for them.

Using that alleged position to question Sarkodie’s public advice, Stonebwoy ended his response with a pointed statement:

“Without PRINCIPLE, advice is an OPINION.”

Sarkodie, however, pushed back strongly against Stonebwoy’s version of events.

In a lengthy response, the rapper denied ever telling Stonebwoy that artists should simply act according to whatever benefits them. He accused his colleague of presenting their private conversation in a way that did not accurately reflect what was discussed.

Sarkodie also rejected the suggestion that his social media posts were directed at Stonebwoy. He questioned why the singer had interpreted the posts as indirect shots and explained that he typically avoids engaging with assumptions based on social media activity.

According to Sarkodie, he only chose to respond publicly because Stonebwoy had directly raised the matter.

The rapper further clarified that his position during their private conversation was about personal choice.

He argued that while people have the right to decide whether to forgive someone or maintain a relationship, they cannot dictate how another person should handle the same situation.

Sarkodie also referenced Stonebwoy’s relationships with individuals who had previously disrespected him. He said he never interpreted Stonebwoy’s association with such people as an endorsement of their actions, stressing that the two artists could maintain mutual respect without necessarily sharing the same opinions or relationships.

He maintained that their shared objective should be finding opportunities to succeed together, even when they do not see eye to eye on everything.

Sarkodie also pointed to several instances where he said he had made efforts to maintain a positive relationship with Stonebwoy. These included inviting him to his Royal Albert Hall concert, congratulating him on career achievements, and discussing possible opportunities for them to perform together.

For Sarkodie, those gestures were evidence that there was no underlying hostility towards his colleague. He also expressed disappointment that an issue he believed could have remained private had eventually become a public conversation.

The exchange has once again put the relationship between two of Ghana’s biggest music stars under the spotlight, with fans and industry observers debating their contrasting views on loyalty, principle, professional relationships, and perceived disrespect.

For now, Stonebwoy maintains that his concerns are about consistency and principle, while Sarkodie insists that his words and social media activity have been misunderstood and were never intended as attacks on his colleague.

A lot to unpack here, but first things first there’s no need to say something I never said that artistes should play along so far as it benefits them.

The first thing I asked you when we got on that call, and I still want to ask, is “What is your problem?” If, for any reason,… https://t.co/G5ZsDYYj1p

The project arrives as a confident statement from the veteran singer, bringing together different sides of her artistry while celebrating her African roots, personal journey, and the identity she has built throughout her career.

Across the album, Yemi moves comfortably through a colourful mix of Afropop, highlife, soukous, and contemporary dance sounds. The production is driven by lively percussion, guitar melodies, and prominent brass arrangements, giving the project the energetic feel that has long been associated with her music.

Among the standout moments is Ala Bekee, her collaboration with Don Jazzy, alongside songs such as General Market and Minister of Enjoyment.

Together, the records highlight Yemi’s ability to move between celebratory anthems, dancefloor-ready cuts, and more personal moments without losing her signature sound.

The album also sees Yemi draw from different African languages and musical traditions. Her lyrics touch on love, financial independence, cultural pride, gratitude, and the simple pleasures of life, with English, Pidgin, Igbo and Yoruba woven into her songwriting.

Rather than chasing a single sound, “It’s Yemi Alade” embraces the breadth of Yemi’s musical identity. Her powerful vocals remain at the centre of the project, carrying both its celebratory moments and its messages of resilience and self-belief.

With the new album, Yemi Alade once again puts her African identity front and centre, delivering a vibrant body of work that reflects the experience, confidence, and cultural influence she has accumulated over the years.

The collaboration finds Knowledge and Piego exploring the everyday realities of love, while Gyakie adds her distinct vocal warmth to a record centred on commitment, loyalty, and staying connected through every season of a relationship.

Produced with a laid-back touch, 365 Days rides on warm guitar melodies, subtle percussion, and deep bass. The relatively minimal arrangement keeps the spotlight on the vocals, giving the three artistes enough space to tell their story without the production becoming overwhelming.

Ajebo Hustlers handle the song with a combination of melodic hooks and slick Pidgin verses, reflecting on the effort required to keep love alive beyond the exciting moments. Their delivery gives the track a familiar Port Harcourt flavour while maintaining its soft romantic mood.

Gyakie comes in with a soulful contribution that adds another perspective to the conversation, complementing the duo with her gentle and reassuring vocals.

More than just a love song, 365 Days captures the idea of choosing someone repeatedly and putting in the work to make a relationship last. The cross-border collaboration also creates a natural meeting point between Nigerian street-pop and Ghanaian R&B.

With its warm production and relatable theme, 365 Days arrives as an easy-listening record for anyone looking for a soundtrack to love, commitment, and the little moments that keep relationships going.

The collaboration pairs FOLA’s melodic approach with Bella Shmurda’s street-pop energy and Zlatan’s unmistakable delivery, creating a record that moves between vulnerability and celebration.

Produced by Shallythechampion and Sbthaproducer, “It’s Over” rides on a driving Afro-fusion groove layered with soft drums, crisp rimshots, and brass elements. The production keeps the rhythm moving without becoming overcrowded, allowing each artist to bring their personality to the song.

FOLA takes the lead with a soulful chorus that sets the emotional direction of the record, reflecting on the journey from struggle to triumph. Bella Shmurda follows with his familiar blend of street wisdom and spiritual reflections, adding another layer to the song’s message.

Zlatan then raises the energy with a fast-paced verse filled with Yoruba punchlines and his signature ad-libs, giving the track the street-ready finish his fans have come to expect.

Together, the three artistes find a natural chemistry on “It’s Over,” turning personal struggles and past obstacles into a collective celebration of progress.

The new release sees FOLA further expand his sound while connecting with two of Nigerian street-pop’s established voices, resulting in a record that feels equally suited to personal victory moments and loud street celebrations.

The former hitmaking producer has steadily built a new identity as a recording artiste, blending his production instincts with catchy melodies and energetic records.

On Hold Somebody, he once again taps into the emotional side of relationships while keeping the sound firmly rooted in the dancefloor.

Produced by Jhay2unez and Ragee, the song comes alive with fast-moving Amapiano log drums, vibrant synths, and driving Afrobeats percussion. The production maintains a constant pulse, giving Young Jonn enough space to switch between melodic passages and his trademark raspy delivery.

At the heart of the song is a simple but relatable desire for affection and companionship. Young Jonn sings about wanting someone close while navigating the excitement and distractions of modern life.

His delivery brings both vulnerability and energy to the record, especially in the catchy chorus, where he turns a personal craving for connection into something listeners can easily sing and dance along to.

With Hold Somebody, Young Jonn continues to show why his transition from behind-the-scenes producer to front-facing pop star has been one of the more interesting stories in contemporary African music.

The new single fits comfortably into his growing collection of upbeat records, making it a natural pick for weekend link-ups, parties, car rides, and festival stages.

The new track arrives at a busy point in Rema’s career, following a series of international collaborations and major performances that have further strengthened his global presence.

This time, however, the singer puts the spotlight back on himself with a solo record that leans into a lighter and more playful side of his artistry.

Produced by Rvssian and London, “Oh No” rides on a lively Afro-fusion production built around bouncing percussion, deep bass, and airy synths. The instrumental gives Rema plenty of room to switch between smooth melodies, playful delivery, and his familiar ad-libs.

On the lyrical side, Rema explores attraction, nightlife, and the impulsive energy that comes with getting caught up in the moment. He blends English and Pidgin with catchy melodic phrases, creating a hook designed to stick after just a few listens.

Unlike some of his more experimental records, “Oh No” keeps things relatively straightforward, allowing the song’s infectious rhythm and Rema’s personality to do most of the work.

The single is already making its way across streaming platforms and social media, adding another upbeat entry to Rema’s 2026 run as he continues to balance his experimental instincts with his ability to create accessible pop records.

Pedro has quickly become one of the standout performers under Xabi Alonso, helping Chelsea produce an entertaining attacking display in the opening weeks of the season. The Brazilian contributed two goals and two assists as the Blues recorded consecutive wins over Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Reflecting on his performances, Pedro picked out his goal against Fulham as his favourite moment of the month.

“I think my favorite goal was the chip against Fulham, and my favorite assist … I think against Fulham, as well,” Pedro told club media. “That game was special because I’ve already scored many times by chipping the goalkeepers, and I gave back the pass to CP [Cole Palmer] and he scored.”

The Chelsea forward came out on top of a shortlist that also featured teammate Cole Palmer, who previously won the award in September 2024.

Pedro has also developed an encouraging partnership with Palmer and new signing Morgan Rogers, with the trio offering Chelsea plenty of creativity in attack.

“We link up very good,” Pedro said of his relationship with Palmer and new signing Morgan Rogers. “We are similar but, in the same way, different. I think it is very good for Chelsea to have us in front.”

While Chelsea have enjoyed a strong start, Hull City have arguably provided one of the biggest surprises of the opening weeks.

Jakirović has overseen an unbeaten start that has seen Hull collect seven points from their first three matches. The Tigers opened their campaign with a statement 2–0 victory over Manchester United before following it up with another win against newly promoted Coventry City and a draw with Aston Villa.

That impressive run has lifted Hull to third place in the Premier League table and earned Jakirović the managerial prize ahead of Mikel Arteta, Xabi Alonso, and Enzo Maresca.

The award also makes Jakirović the first Bosnian manager in Premier League history to claim the Manager of the Month honour.

Interestingly, his next challenge comes against the very player who has just been recognised as the league’s best for August. Hull City travel to Stamford Bridge on Saturday to face Pedro and Chelsea, with only one point separating the two sides heading into the weekend.

The winger has emerged as an increasingly important part of Chelsea’s plans since the arrival of manager Xabi Alonso, with his versatility and work rate making him a regular feature in the Blues’ evolving tactical setup.

Neto’s improved contract adds another year to his previous agreement, which was due to run until 2031. The new terms also represent a reward for the impact he has made since joining Chelsea from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2024 for a reported £51.4 million.

Reacting to the extension, Neto spoke about his growing attachment to the club and his belief that there is still plenty more to accomplish in West London.

‘It’s an unbelievable moment for me and my family. I feel at home here. I feel like I want to achieve more things here. I’m really excited because I think we can achieve a lot of things together.’

The decision to extend Neto’s stay also fits into Chelsea’s wider strategy of rewarding key members of their squad with improved contracts. The club recently handed Joao Pedro a new deal, while captain Reece James and midfielder Moises Caicedo have also received fresh terms during the year.

Neto’s future had looked less certain during the most recent transfer window, when his performances reportedly attracted interest from other Premier League clubs, including Manchester City. However, the Portuguese remained at Chelsea and has since strengthened his position within the team.

A major factor behind his improved standing has been Alonso’s willingness to use Neto in a more flexible role. The Spaniard has deployed him in positions where his attacking ability can be combined with his willingness to track back and contribute defensively.

Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Hull City, Alonso highlighted the range of qualities Neto brings to his side.

‘For me, he is a winger. You can call him a winger or a wing-back because he has many qualities. He can play on the last line and he can defend on the first line, so he has the capacity to do many things. He is good in one-on-one situations, he is scoring goals and he has a fantastic work rate.’

Neto’s ability to cover ground and switch quickly between attacking and defensive duties has made him particularly suited to Alonso’s approach. The manager also revealed that he had been familiar with the player long before taking charge at Stamford Bridge.

‘I knew him well from watching many of Chelsea’s games. With him, you know that he is going to compete and you want those kinds of players in your team. I am very happy with Pedro and the work he is doing.’

With his long-term future now settled, Neto can focus fully on his role in Alonso’s Chelsea project as the club continues to build around a core of players viewed as important to its plans for the years ahead.

Speaking on the One54 Africa podcast, the singer explained that confirming their genotype compatibility was an important step for him before pursuing a relationship that could eventually lead to marriage and children.

According to Adekunle Gold, he viewed the decision less as a matter of romance and more as a responsibility to the children they could potentially have together.

“There’s no way I would have done that. When we met, the first thing we did, I had to know her genotype or that we match. If we did not… so she’s AA,” he said.

The singer went on to speak about the need for greater awareness around sickle cell disease, particularly among young people who may not know the implications of genotype compatibility when choosing a partner.

“There’s so much awareness that needs to be done, you know, tell people that if you have sickle cell, forget love, you can’t do it. It makes no sense, because you’re about to bring a child to the world and the child is about to be sickly. What’s the point?” he said.

Adekunle Gold further maintained that he would not have gone ahead with marriage if he and Simi had incompatible genotypes. For him, the decision was ultimately about avoiding a situation that could put their future children at risk.

“I wouldn’t have married my wife if she were SS or AS. She’s AA. I don’t think it makes sense to bring a child into this world and they’d be sickly.” — Singer Adekunle Gold https://t.co/FMDGLjJNgi

— Instablog9ja (@instablog9ja) September 10, 2026

His position is also connected to his personal experience with sickle cell disease. Having lived with the condition throughout his life, the singer has consistently used his platform to encourage conversations around genotype testing and sickle cell awareness.

Beyond speaking publicly about the issue, Adekunle Gold has also established a foundation to support people affected by sickle cell disease and raise awareness of the condition.

The singer and Simi have since built a family together after years of friendship and romance, becoming one of Nigeria’s most recognisable celebrity couples while continuing to maintain successful careers in music.
