Black Solo recently released the video for his praise single titled "Ekene Oma". Born Solomon Bello in Enugu State, he was inspired to go into music by Bob Marley and Beenie Man and started as a reggae/dancehall artiste. He's an affiliated act with the likes of Tuface Idibia, Terry G and Odogwu (Faze's brother and manager).
Though not easily recognizable or a household name yet, he is one artiste who has been in the game for a long time and has a lot of street credibility. "Ekene Oma" is a traditional Niger Delta praise and worship song that channels the brilliant instrumentals of ''Jesus Bu Eze'', Duncan Mighty's song from his 2008 debut album. Black Solo started off beautifully but wasted a beat he could have done so much with. It started out praising the good Lord but quickly descends into a ''hailing'' spree giving ''props'' to celebrities and chairmen. All in all quite a good song.
Look out for a cameo in the video by none other than ''ex''-militant warlord, Ateke Tom.
