Singer Slam Quits Music



He’s been a member of the rested pop group Oxygen. He’s been signed to Kennis music, where he scored minor hits and delivered chart-topping videos. He’s lived and schooled and performed in England, where he lived for many years, before finally returning home.

But, since moving back home few years back to pick up his music career where he left it, things have not exactly been rosy for singer-songwriter Slam. And, after a failed album, and a couple of unsuccessful single releases, the soft-spoken singer has taken up employment in a Lagos-based PR firm.

Looks like the singer would like to keep this on the low, but our investigations reveal the singer works at the company, Synthesis Communications as a Business Development/Market Strategy executive. His name and office are listed on their official website. We could not immediately confirm for how long he’s been working there.

On the website, the company says of Slam: ‘Ensures 360 marketing strategy and innovations Co-ordinates brand management activations co-ordinates business trend analysis and market survey. Brief CV: B.Eng. Petrochemical Engineering, MBA (Marketing–Stratford, UK) CCNA (Computer Certification). Over 4 Years experience.’ There’s no mention of his music history.

Other members of the defunct Oxygen include Paul IK Dairo, B-Swave and the deceased Tony Tonero.
