AY.com rings a bell whenever the jam, Pass Me Your Love featuring Terry G comes on or is being talked about but after mesmerising the airwaves through heavy TV and radio rotation with the commercial hit released in 2008, AY.com vanished from our screen and for over 12 years, it seemed that way, either him remaining inactive musically or releasing music that gained little to no plays mainstream wise. However, AY.com is officially ready to make a comeback into the commercial mainstream music world and in his recent interview with Sidomex Entertainment on YouTube, he speaks on his absence, return and plans for 2021.

Speaking on his long hiatus from the music scene, AY.com cites venturing into other business interests including Real Estate and Fashion while also choosing to prioritize family over his music career by making his kids the main focus in his life, raising them up properly but now that they are all grown, he is back to doing what he loves and what makes his happy, i.e music.

Now signed to TNKay Music Worldwide, AY.com is making his grand comeback to the Nigerian mainstream space by releasing the re-fix to Pass Me Your Love (released over a decade ago) with Peruzzi.

In the Sidomex interview, AY.com also revealed he has a song with Praiz to which the music video has been shot, soon to hit our screen and streaming platforms soon.

On his public fallout with Pass Me Your Love original version collaborator, Terry G, AY.com cites false ego and pride as the major reason, saying Terry G was beginning to feel like “the bigger person” as if he were a god; acting like he was the force behind making the song very big as at then while infact it was both of them—AY.com and Terry G—who equally made the song blow up. Moving on, he (AY.com) says “music is spiritual” and if the “chemistry is not right”, he will not bother making music with anybody.

R&B/Soul singer, Tay Iwar known for his silk, smooth and low tempo vibes puts out his sophomore project and debut EP, Love & Isolation.

Love & Isolation is nothing but a purebreed output of fine tune R&B melodies induced with soulful singing and lay-low productions through the key and strings with beats seldomly added for flavour.

Tay Iwar’s Love & Isolation is filled with 5 well-written and nicely sung chunes with features from veteran Alternative singer Asa (“Yoga”), emPawa signed artist and Kenyan songstress, Xenia Manasseh (“Stones”), fellow R&B/Soul singer Lou Val and EDM/Dance artiste Insightful (“Feel”). “Peaking”, a 90’s esque R&B song served as the promotional single for Love & Isolation EP.

Tay Iwar is closely associated with the Lagos-based Alté clan of musicians and mostly always linked with fellow Alté acts, Santi and Odunsi (The Engine). He released his debut album—“Gemini”—in 2019 but gained major mainstream recognition for being the guest act on “True Love” on Wizkid’s “Made In Lagos” 2020 released album.

Hailing from Lagos, @tiwasavage has been dubbed the “Queen of Afrobeats.” Her music flips off the patriarchy, which she performs without foundation on. She opens up about learning to love her dark skin & much more in her cover story (in English & Yoruba): https://t.co/iMfdboHlF7 pic.twitter.com/FB8401bp8c

In a series of beautifully shot and thoroughly edited photos with proper colour grading, Tiwa Savage poses for the camera with two of the three uploaded pictures having a floral theme—(1) with a sky blue background where she is seen wearing a blouse synonymous to the 80’s and early 90’s with the make-up on her face well done to show for it.

In the second picture, Tiwa shines elegantly amidst a bouquet of flowers, varying from roses to petals to hibiscus and other sorts of green plants.

On the third upload, Tiwa Savage simply shows her dominance over the music scene (female wise) as she is fully covered in orange fur, giving off a very powerful feminine aura as in a Lioness with her hair made into long gigantic puff.
