Alhaji Orezi's long awaited album is finally out.






Though it is long awaited but it is rather late than never, Afro hip hop artiste Orezi Esegine Allen popularly known as Alhaji Orez finally dropped his much anticipated debut album, recently.

The initial copies of ‘THE GEHN GHEN’ album initially printed have been exhausted due to high demand, according to the management of the record label. “We are reprinting a large quantity of the album as we speak because demand is high even before the official release date, we are in a race against time to satisfy people who are demanding for the work,” a source at Sprisal Entertainment who does not want to be named, said.


The album featured collaborations with top Nigeria artistes and an international star. It was described as one of the best things to happen in the music industry by music critics at a private listening party held in the Victoria Island, Lagos recently.

Orezi with hit songs such as ‘Shuperu’, ‘Shoki’, ‘You Garrit’ and ‘Rihanna’ has been one of the most consistent and talented entertainers in the country at the moment with lots of local and continental awards and nominations to show for it alongside an international recognition. ‘’I had to drop it (album) now because it is hot.

Every other artiste planning to drop an album in September should be advised because from September till next year, Orezi will rule the club houses, the streets and airwaves.

In an interview with news men, Alhaji Orezi said “my fans can never be disappointed. We are working with a reputable marketer to make sure it is spread widely. I am really grateful to everyone that has supported me since day one till date and I bless the name of Almighty God that maketh things come to pass. I am really grateful, and just to add, expect great and unique hit songs RnB, Dancehall, Afro and hip hop”

He also travelled to South Africa to shoot his U Garrit song video. He spoke on his hit song, Shoki. “God has been good to me, as you can see things have really changed for me in both my music career and life… Shoki is actually a dance that has been in existence but not popular until I saw a boy in my hood, dancing and I asked him what kind of dance is this, he said it’s called shoki and at that moment the inspiration came and I played it along a beat that has been on my phone since and behold it went well; I called the owner of the beat “Popito” and the rest is history.”
