KURIO...New kid on the block...this dude is set to take Nigerian music by storm with his two new singles...HOLE IN MY HEART & SOGI CLUB
The name KURIO.. is an Africanised version of the indian-english
word[curio] which simply means: (A souvenir) worth collecting..*
*Born UZOEWULU OKECHUKWU SAMUEL.. some 24years ago, KURIO had travelled
most parts of southern Nigeria.. having been born @Uromi in Edo(midwestern
Nigeria) to parents of the Igbo extraction(south eastern Nigeria) and
raised in Lagos .. (on the shores of the atlantic westwards).. The cultures
and languages of these Nigerian ethnicities have had a great influence on
his styles of music.. which actually is a rich blend of highlife and
hiphop referred to as afropop and varying fusions of RnB.*
*Signed professionally to El models Nigeria in mid January 2012, this great
look alike of the veteran Nigerian actor SAINT OBI.. has had his fair share
of modelling jobs.. his first ever being the advert for the 2010calabar
carnival tagged CARNIRIV2010 whilst under the tutelage of MIC-DUNAMIS
MODELS and his most recent being the BLACKBERRY promo advert for ETISALAT
Nigeria.. shot in February alongside veteran NOLLYWOOD comedian

*His 2professional debut singles SOGI (only U) and HOLES IN MY HEART are
currently being branded and promoted by Alex Ozone CEO 03MEDIA c/o
@ozone03media and numerous affiliates in the U.S and the U.K. Worthy of
note is the fact that both are actually lovesongs with different storylines
and in different genres ..SOGI (only U) is a rare blend of west African
percussions, Soukus and highlife with rhymes in indigenious Nigerian
languages, french and pidgin English and is Produced by veteran hitmaker
