Nigerian music artist, based in the United Arab Emirates, Emmanuel Onyinye Promise popularly known as Whaiskee from Awgu local government area of Enugu State has revealed his plans for the near future as a music artist and as an entertainment entrepreneur.
He said, “My plans in the next five years is to collaborate with three big and recognized artists and two international artists and also to achieve one major dream of going global with my music.”
Of the three Nigerian artists he would like to collaborate with, Whaiskee has let the cat out of the bag in a previous interview where he expressed his desire to collaborate with Wizkid, Tems and Ruger. He was blatantly effusive of his love for the trio describing their music and style as top class.
Excerpts: ““I would love to collaborate with Big Wizzy and also Tems because I love her vocals and with Ruger for his energy and vocals as well. But Wizzy is the king of them all. His music is out of this world. He is our beacon to the world. Everything about him is class; lyrics, energy, stagecraft and the personality too. He is simply awesome,” says Whaiskee who also has his hands in many other pies in the entertainment space both in Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates.
“I believe good music can travel and other international artists would want and love to collaborate with you and that’s also the work of a good manager to make you reach there. Wizkid is our leader in this regard. He has made international stars beam their searchlights on the Nigerian music scene. The government can help buy into the musical buzz in the country by endorsing the great musical artists of our generation, recognizing them and appreciating them to make them do more,” he added.
Whaiskee began 2021 on a high note by releasing the fifth single of his career titled “Golden World ” on April 7th. The song further entrenched his name on the landscape as an artist with a lot of promises and the cutting edge to deliver in the near future.
His musical journey dates back to 2017 when he released his debut single titled “Family Culture”. It was a song that created a path for him to work through.
In the same 2017, Whaiskee displayed his musical dexterity by adding yet another single to show his preparedness to have a place in the music space. The “Dream Asset ” released in August 2017 as a follow up to his debut in May.
In 2018, the Enugu State-born artist surfaced yet again on the music scene with another single “Pure Heaven” that catapulted him to fame. Although he wasn’t a household name, he became a darling of the people that matter in the musical enclave, not only in Nigeria but beyond its shores.
Whaiskee registered his name on the musical diary in 2019 with “Black Breed ”, a song that won the hearts of many people and got in on the playlist of most. It was a mature delivery with insightful lyrics and rhythmic sound. It proved the young, budding singer has come of age.
Whaiskee is also an entrepreneur, businessman, marketer and show promoter . He is the brain behind Dreamxoxo Music and Entertainment as well as the founder of Dream Star Marketing Plus Media in UAE with a registered license.
