Dayo “D1” Adeneye, a Nigerian music magnate, described an occasion when women were passing out after a performance by the famed musician 2Face, now known as Tubaba.
When D1 Adeneye made an appearance on a “Deep Dive” podcast episode, presented by actor and comic Teju Babyface, it brought back memories.
The record label executive, who was the director of Kennis Music which signed Tubaba said; “At the height of Kennis Music, we had over 50 artistes on the label. Lagbaja was signed to us. We had everybody, from gospel to hip-hop to fuji.
“We’ve been at a couple of shows where I’ve seen girls faint when 2Face was performing. I went on a tour in Ivory Coast, and brought a girl on stage and she hugged 2Face and passed out. During that concert, four girls fainted.
“These were people who didn’t speak English but they knew the lyrics of all his songs word-for-word. This was a francophone country and four girls fainted. We thought it was a joke but an ambulance had to carry them. They fainted just because they were in the presence of 2Face.”
Tubaba is so legendary.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
