Iyare Uwaifo – Reggae Star (EP)
Iyare Uwaifo – Reggae Star (EP)
A lion cannot beget a goat.
There’s no better way to describe Iyare Uwaifo, the first fruit of the Late Professor Sir. Victor Uwaifo of the joromi fame.
Iyare Uwaifo is a multi-talented Nigeria-born, US-based musician and the Chief Responsibility Officer of YAFOGENERAL ENTERTAINMENT USA.
The Nigerian music industry is about to inhale a new fresh breath as Iyare Uwaifo comes hot with the release of REGGAE STAR, an EP of 3 songs. NATTY BONGO, DEVILS FUNERAL AND LADY.
All songs were recorded at Mercy Studio USA and produced by Keville Rodney.
With his wealth of experience, music can never be a stranger to him as he was born into it and had the privilege to learn from the best.
It’s safe to say without a doubt that after many years of working underground, the multi-instrumentalist has done his homework and is ready to serve all lovers of good music some sweet Reggae music.
He studied music and Graduated from JOROMI ACADEMY OF MUSIC AND THEATRE ARTS founded by his father at the age of 19 years old, he was already a master of all the major instruments as he was the bass guitar player for his father, that was after he formed his first band called the SUSPECT in the early 90’s
He and his siblings traveled everywhere with their father and it was one of those tours that took him to the United States of America where he decided to stay and study for more knowledge.
In his words, even as a son to Prof. Sir. Victor Uwaifo, one of the greatest musicians out of Africa, growing up to become a big star in the city of Benin was still very rough and tough.
One of my best friends, the reggae powerhouse, Righteousman can testify how the journey through thick and thin from villages to cities all over Nigeria playing music together was not a comedy show before finally he followed his father’s band on tour to the US in 1995.
For those wondering why reggae music instead of following his father’s successful brand. Iyare Uwaifo has this to say, music is a universal language and an expression of life experiences.

Nigerian Afrobeats artist Nino De Brown returns with a new single, “Money,” featuring
Rhapsodic Records artist and producer Sholex Timbo On “Money,”
Nino De Brown takes on one of the most universal subjects in modern life: the desire for financial success and everything that comes with it. Rather than presenting wealth simply as a symbol of luxury, Nino De Brown uses the record to explore the complicated emotions behind wanting money, needing money, and understanding what money cannot provide.
The song immediately establishes its theme with the memorable refrain:
“Money no dey buy happiness, I know am
But still I want am
Money be the root of all evil, I hear am
But still I want am”
Those lines capture the central contradiction of the record. People may understand that money cannot guarantee happiness, peace, love, or fulfillment, yet the desire for financial freedom remains powerful.
Nino De Brown approaches the subject from a deeply relatable perspective, turning everyday ambitions into an infectious Afrobeats record. His melodic delivery gives the song an easygoing quality, while the lyrics carry a more reflective message underneath the rhythm.
“Money” speaks to the realities of wanting to improve one’s circumstances, support loved ones, achieve personal goals, and enjoy the opportunities that financial success can bring. At the same time, the song acknowledges the limits of wealth and the complicated relationship people can have with the pursuit of it.
The record sees Nino De Brown continuing to develop his sound and songwriting around themes that connect with everyday experiences. His ability to package a familiar subject into a catchy and accessible Afrobeats record gives “Money” both immediate appeal and a message listeners can take away from it.
Adding to the record is Sholex Timbo, a newly signed artist and producer under Rhapsodic Records, who contributes as a featured artist and produced the song. His production provides the rhythmic foundation for Nino De Brown’s performance while adding another layer to the collaboration.
Ultimately, “Money” remains a Nino De Brown record at its core an honest, melodic and infectious reflection on ambition, desire and the realities of chasing financial success.
“Money” by Nino De Brown featuring Sholex Timbo is out now on all major streaming platforms.
