Co-founder Darey who made this known in Lagos, today, says Zaina,
who recently moved back home from Atlanta, 'is a supremely talented singer,
writer and performer who has worked with some of the best brains here and
abroad; a fierce entertainer who wants to make music fans happy'.
Soul Muzik, also home to Darey and Mo Eazy, joins other labels
like Chocolate City, Mavin Records and EME who have signed female artistes in
recent times. There had been a huge drop in the number of active female singers
in the country; all that is changing now, and Zaina says she's 'here to stay,
to play my part and add my voice to what's going on in my great country'.
Not entirely a newcomer, Zaina has in the past worked with eLDee,
STYL Plus, Sasha, Lynxxx and received nods from the popular Nigerian Entertainment
Awards.
And to kick off Zaina's stay at the label, her debut singles
"Lolola" and "Totally Yours" (featuring multi-award-winning
Jamaican dancehall star Wanye Wonder) have been released.LOLOLA, Zaina's official debut Soul Muzik single, is a party anthem
for every lady who's ready for that good love. The message is simple: "now
is the time for love, no games, no preamble, no second thoughts, no pretence,
let's get straight to the point, I'm ready for the next level so make your
move!"
On TOTALLY YOURS, Zaina
features Jamaican reggae sensation Wayne Wonder, for a soulful exploration of
timeless love, submission and devotion. It's a sensual love song about
friendship that has evolved beyond the platonic. It's about a commitment that
has overcome the battles of loyalty and doubt. Zaina and Wayne collaborate
'wonderfully' to express the thoughts of a couple in love who have come to that
special place in their relationship where they are certain beyond any doubt
that they are ready to give themselves totally and completely to each other -
body and soul. This is Zaina's 2nd official Soul Muzik single.
Her debut album is due next year.
