Let’s Talk!!! Do You Think Don Jazzy Can Revive Iyanya’s ‘DROWNING’ Music Career?

Guess you all have heard the News? “Don Jazzy Signs Iyanya To Mavin”

Iyanya’s rise to fame came after he won the first edition of MTN Project Fame back in 2008. Ever since then the talented singer hasn’t look back as he kept pursuing his music career until he eventually became a house hold name in the industry.
     The University of Calabar graduate started out as a karaoke singer at a local bar he managed in Calabar but destiny changed his fate to becoming a super star after the release of his first Afrobeat single “Kukere”. Iyanya has been doing R&B music after he won the Project Fame competition but he was compelled to try something else when R&B wasn’t bringing food to the table. With the help of his former producer DTunes he released his biggest song till date “Kukere” and went on to release other great Afrobeat songs like “Ur Waist”, “Le Kwa Ukwu”, “Sexy Mama” and “Flavour”.

From dropping hits back to back Iyanya went to being stagnant in his music career with little or no single hit from him for the past 3 years now. His career nose-dived from headlining all the biggest shows to struggling to even get called up for major shows and events in the country and outside the country. Iyanya once used to be the poster boy with everyone wanting to have him headline their shows but today he is a shadow of his former self. His last album Applaudize was a flop which gave signs of his declining music career.

His troubles started when he began to have issues with his business partner Ubi Franklin, co-owner of Triple MG over finances and a lot of other key decisions on the running of the label. This affected his career and his music suffered badly for it. He hasn’t found his feet ever since then even after officially leaving his own record label Triple MG he co-owns with Ubi Franklin. This year the singer has tried a different approach to getting his groove back and becoming the artiste he once used to be. He has decided to reverse to his R&B root and has released two songs titled “Type of Woman” and “Heartbeat” which are all R&B love songs but it still hasn’t ignited as he planned it would.
   Iyanya has used up all his options to get back to the music scene but all his effort has proved abortive. His last resort was signing to Mavin Records owned by the business mogul and talented producer, Don Jazzy. Don Jazzy is known for discovering new talents and refining them into world class superstars. He has made a lot of stars in the industry like D’Banj, Wande Coal, Tiwa Savage, Korede Bello, Reekado Banks and Di’ja. His magic touch on his artiste songs always have a way of turning them into a hit. He recently just released a new song “Up To Something” featuring Don Jazzy and Dr Sid as his first official single under Mavin Records.

Could Iyanya ‘s dwindling career be revived by the magic touch of Don Jazzy? If there is anyone right now who can bring back Iyanya’s glory days back to life again it’s got to be Don Jazzy. He has done it before for other artistes and he can do it again for Iyanya. Iyanya is a versatile talented artiste and performer who can make a comeback with the Mavins if he follows Don Jazzy instructions to the letter.
