Mr Eazi: Self-styled Jay Z of Africa

Nigerian superstar and entrepreneur Mr Eazi on why he wants to empower musicians to get ahead.

DJ Edu鈥檚 guest is Nigerian superstar and entrepreneur Mr Eazi. Mr Eazi, self-styled Jay Z of Africa, tells Edu what motivated him to set up his emPawa project. It is a record label, but also aims to do what it says on the tin - empower up and coming African musicians to get ahead and take control of their careers.

The TIA spotlight is shined on an exceptionally inspiring and energetic young woman from Namibia. Lioness has several hit songs to her name and some slick videos. She is also a qualified and practising medical doctor.

The Afroboss gets his regular 10 in 10 slot off to a flying start. Ten in 10 is 10 songs from 10 different countries in 10 minutes, and this week includes banging tracks from Sierra Leone, South Africa, and Kenya.
