THE EXPERIENCE 2012 – A TIME OF HIGH PRAISE

DEITRICK HADDON

The 2012 edition of The Experience Lagos - one of the world’s largest Christian concert - would once again live up to its reputation with its signature charged atmosphere, parade of indigenous and international music ministers, and an expectant crowd. The Experience 2012 is scheduled to commence at 6pm on December 7^th and end at 5am on December 8^th. One of the high points this year is the concert’s return to the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Lagos after it was shifted in 2011 to the Expo Centre, Eko Hotel in a special command edition - a huge letdown for many who couldn’t attend. With its return to TBS this year however, another record gathering is expected.

FRED HAMMOND

The Event, which debuted in December 2006 with over 70,000 persons in attendance rapidly gained momentum at its second outing with a quantum leap in attendance of well over 250,000 people and has been ever increasing since then. 

Ministers lined up for this year include: Chevelle Franklin, Deitrick Haddon, Fred Hammond, Israel Houghton, Soweto Spiritual Singers and Don Moen, Sammie Okposo, Mike Aremu and Wale Adenuga.

AMBASSAGE SHOOTS VIDEO FOR SHOWCASE FEATURING K'ORE

Fine boy upcoming rap artiste, Ambassage, just shot the video for his song, Showcase featuring K’ore. X2D met with him and asked a few questions about this video:

WHERE WAS THE VIDEO SHOT?

This video was shot on the Island - at the Sliverbird Galleria and Marina Rooftop -  and Mr Price Stores at the Ikeja Shopping Mall.

WHO SHOT THE VIDEO?

Achor Yusuf, the current director of Nigerian Idols.

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO SHOOT THE VIDEO NOW?

They say “a picture is worth a thousand words”, and since we really want to go by the message of the song, it was time to make an exhibition of a really good song and vertical (gospel) music as a whole. The track has done so well on air without much push, so a video is just the right boost ‘SHOWCASE’ needs.  Plus it is time to put a face to the name.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD DIFFERENTIATE YOUR VIDEO AND SONG FROM OTHERS?
Only grace would.

WHAT IS THE MESSAGE BEHIND THE SONG?

Ephesians 3:10 says ‘that the wisdom of God may be shown to the world through the church…’ and that is us. Also Romans 8:19 says ‘the whole creation awaits the manifestation of the sons of God’. God really wants to use us (His sons) as showpieces to the world literally, but most of us are too scared, timid and not excellent to step up to the plate. We are praying for God to ‘STEP IN” and do something while He is waiting for us to ‘STEP UP’ and do something with all He has given us. The song 

is pretty much a challenge, prayer and faith 
confession.



WHAT WAS THE CONCEPT BEHIND THE VIDEO?

In a nutshell, ‘Wo ‘ke, Go ‘ke, Di oge’ meaning “Look up to Him, Rise to a height and be made a showpiece.

WHAT SONG ARE YOU LIKELY TO WORK ON NEXT?

It would be something for Nigeria – ‘One Green Wish’. ‘It is a project dear to my heart and you know with all that is going on around us, I think I should lend my voice and speak for change. It is featuring Rooftop Mcs, Provabs and Esse (MTN Project Fame Season 4 runner up) and it is produced by Ambassage and that is me (Laughs)

TOLUCCI IS OUT WITH A NEW SONG AND VIDEO

Tolucci, Christian Artiste, Music Producer and video director, has coined his own definition of the word 'swag' with his just released new song and video; the second video from the forthcoming album - The Minstrel's Notepad.

S.W.A.G, according to Tolucci, stands for Saved With Amazing Grace and it is a declaration of how he got saved, his unashamed stand for the truth in Christ, and his ride through life's temptations.

The S.W.A.G project was released in tribute 10 years of being ordained into the Music/Media Ministry.

RONNIE D - I WAS ACCUSED OF BEING FETISH

Ronnie D - Aderonke Comfort Adesanya -  was born on January 5^th. A native of Ijebu Igboye, Epe, Lagos. She attended Fagba Grammar school (1994-2000) and got her degree in Insurance in Lasu (Lagos state university). 

She started singing at the age of seven, but was known more as a dancer. Her singing ability became pronounced “during a fellowship rally in my church at Foursquare Gospel Church, Pipeline; after which the pastor pronounced a blessing on me”. She gained the boldness and has been in the business of making impact in lives through my singing ministry. 

Some of the challenges Ronnie D has faced include not being accepted by her family because they believe singing is not a profession. Also while in school, there were rumours that she attracted people through the use of ‘juju’ when singing; “they said I must have hid my fetish in the stomach region because I normally touch that area when singing”. She has however pursued her vision and taken courage in lives being touched by God when she sings and this has kept her going. 

Aderonke is a member of Kingsword International Church. She loves helping people get back on their feet and works with the principle – “if you don’t have what you need, maintain what you have”.
