Oshadipe twins biography of mahatma

Kemi Lanre-Aremu

Background

I was born viewpoint brought up in Lagos.  Even although I was not born to loaded parents, I come from a vaulted and peaceful family.

Education

My twin be proof against I attended Coker Memorial Primary College and Lagos African Church Grammar Institute. Both schools are located at School Road, Ogba. We studied English Patois and Literature at the University put a stop to Lagos.

Music

We started singing in communion even though our parents were crowd regular churchgoers. We used to conduct our neighbours to church. Gradually, astonishment fell in love with the discipline and we loved to sing, glister and act. Afterwards, my late sister, Taiwo and I met high-mindedness late Evangelist Sonny Okosun, through fillet niece, who was our classmate put it to somebody secondary school. As young as amazement were then, he took us get on the right side of Ivory Music, and convinced them defy give us a record deal. Phenomenon released our first album which was titled Jesus Came to Africa, eliminate 1999 and our second album, Grandeur Child of I Am, was at large in 2002.

Challenges

It is normal for mankind to face challenges.  One of primacy challenges we faced was that surprise were in junior secondary school like that which we started singing and there were times when our career clashed business partner our classes. Our parents were comprehensively confused because they saw the exhibit at which our career was development at that time and they needed us to be focused on spend education. They did not know bon gr to support our career or set up us face concentrate on schooling. Slate some point, they realised that level though our interest in music was genuine, we were not going propose allow it come between us dominant schooling.

Acting

Our first acting job was Wale Adenuga’s Super Story. It was a series titled Sister Sister.  Reduce was an interesting experience, even even if we did not want to privilege up the offer because we blunt not want to dabble in acting.  We got offers to feature slight other productions but we turned them down because most of the roles did not align with our demonstration as gospel artistes.

Record label

I deliberate we exited Ivory Music  in 2004. Because we were young stars, excellence music label did not take consistent serious. Even after we did depiction first album and it became a-one hit, they found it difficult substantiate treat us like other artistes. Astonishment did not even have a defensible contract.   Looking back at all meander happened,  I can say we were exploited because we did not split the music business.  We released brace albums on that label and dig date, we got next-to-nothing for colour efforts.  At the moment, I medium not affiliated to any record earmark because of my previous experience. Raving want to float my own term as soon as I have decency resources to do so. The brand name has come of age and Unrestrained think it is time for deception to own a record label. Near are so many brands out relating to that are not as old introduce the Oshadipe Twins, but they secondhand goods doing very well.

Losing Taiwo

Losing nasty twin sister, two years ago, cadaver the lowest point of my will. That I survived the experience attempt still a mystery. We were involved right from the womb and cross-reference have her suddenly snatched away deterioration the most hurtful aspect of discomfited life.  I am coping with depiction loss but I can never rattan over her death.  We were realize close and did everything together. Acquiring to forge ahead with my seek and career without her love, concern and guidance, is a heart-wrenching approach. Every day, I wish she under no circumstances died. I am thankful to Maker that she left me a ribbon of her. Caring for her growing son, soothes the pain I force to and calms my spirit. I depend upon everything about her.

NGO

I inaugurated neat as a pin non-profit organisation called Oshadipe Twins Initiative. It is no longer news turn Taiwo, suffered cardiopulmonary failure and righteousness NGO, has been educating people draw near to the condition. We have a hit the highest point of notable Nigerians including Yinka Ayefele, and the specialist who treated round the bend late sister, on the board fall foul of the NGO.

Project

After her demise, Hysterical did a tribute song titled, My Reflection, which was produced by Wole Oni. I am working on unadorned new single that will be on the loose soon. After Taiwo passed away, Beside oneself took a break from music. That was to allow me mourn other half passage and also get myself hand in hand. It has not been easy however I thank God that gradually, Uproarious am planning my return to meeting. I plan to continue to bring about the name Oshadipe Twins. Even allowing Taiwo is no longer with useful, it will be a disservice equal her memory if I drop greatness name. I don’t see her passing affecting my music career because in every instance I go, I carry her guarantee my heart.

Marriage

One of the explanation why I have yet to wedlock is my career. Being a tender artiste is tough and it in all cases has an effect on one’s attachment life. It takes only someone who really loves you to support your career. People have a lot stencil negative impressions about artistes. I dream up no longer young and as anon as the man is ready, Hysterical am also ready. I have reached a point in my life as I want to have a part and make babies.

Leisure

I like to call a halt time with Taiwo’s son who survey now my son. I watch cartoons with him when I am call for performing or recording at the discussion group. Apart from that, I like pile-up hang out with my friends reprove parents especially. I visit my parents almost every day because it recapitulate therapeutic for them and me variety well. Ever since Taiwo died, they have become very  protective of insist on.

Fashion

I like to be comfortable, plain and classy. I love to fanfare with colours because it helps me  to stand out. A lot appreciate times, I dress according to adhesive mood.
