Charlse Novia is no stranger to lavishing ‘heavy critics’ on Nigerian celebs whom he thinks go wrong now and then. Now, its the Mavin Records princess Di’ja and Reekado Banks who are the victims of his latest thoughts!
After the release of the groups’ hit ‘ADAOBI’ last month, which has also been receiving massive airplay across the country, Novia thought it was a massive improvement from their previous jam ‘Dorobucci’ – video wise – but felt the ‘charming’ Di’ja had more work to do with her pronunciations.
Novia said: “Something naughty but charming in the near-sneer of Di’ja. She could work more on her pronunciations in songs. She has great promise.”
He didn’t end there. Novia further threw major shade at the the back up guru, Reekado Banks to whom he said: “Its that Reekado Banks fella I still can’t put a finger on his style. He seems to force himself to please in videos. Not natural enough!”
However, over all, the film-maker believed Don Jazzy did a thrilling job on the song and the video by staying humble and allowing his younger artistes to take all the shine including Korede Bello whom he described as:
“That Korede Bello dude had huge screen sharisma. He exudes something innocent yet confident. Matched with his talent, he’s one to watch.”
This is not the first time Novia is hitting hard on the Mavins. Back in May, he slammed Tiwa Savage’s “Wanted” video stating it portrayed African women in the worse form. He’d also blasted other stars like Chika Ike, Genevieve Nnaji and many more.
Guys what do you think, Is Charles Novia right or wrong?
