Tonight I am shooting out on my own to an event filled with pride for country as well as birthday anniversary celebrations. Nigeria @50! Olu's XX Birthday Bash! Don't ask us how old he is!!
We are at club BLV tonight, literally in the heart of London ... the City ... the Bright Lights ... sounds like New York ... No It Isn't! We In London! Don't get it twisted! With an absolutely stunning view of Tower Bridge obliquely opposite the venue ...we are partying in style! BLV is a very small and cosy venue with one long bar and some accommodating bar stewards so I think we are in for an eventful night all courtesy DAT Promotionz Inc.! Exclusive Event Promotions! We still want to know what the name means ...
Early in the dance we were jibbing to some simple hip hop and r&b; just mellow vibes to rock back and drink a two drinks and maybe catch some eye candy ... not sure really! There were some girls changing upstairs and when I hear the shout Afrodivas magazine was having a fashion show/competition t
o decide on a model for their magazine front cover ... ooohh ...now we looking forward to that! Adding to that surprise; we saw a big cake in the middle of the dance floor with "Nigeria @ 50" on it ... well yes!! Excitement!! Note to self at this time ... get ready for the fashion show, make sure we see somebody cut the cake and definitely steal a piece on our way home *wink wink*
So we are off to a quiet start, and we must say we were expecting more! Nevertheless, the limousine has arrived and out comes the birthday king with another cake and after a few walks here, a few phone calls there and a few hugs ... we inside the dance and we ready to boogie on down! Nigeria @50 Baby!
Still waiting for the vibes to kick up and runaway, Scorn is now sitting down to then to be told "Nigerians Party Late Amiel! They Reach The Club At 2:00 AM" ... Damn! He didn't lie! 2:00 AM ... place ram out! people drinking, people singing their favourite tunes, champagne bottle popping, red wine, rose ... the works! even some "ratta tatta" pass in the mix ... Party Start! After the runway catwalk model and pose competition, there is now a model chosen who will now be on the cover of the magazine; thanks to public demand and vote and also influenced by 166 Family! Speaking of 166 Family, despite some "technical issues" with the microphones, they still managed to put on a subtle show to have the crowd throwing their hands in the air and singing along to their lyrics. A dedicated thank you must go out to DJ Wax, Dj Excell, DJ Yemster & DJ Lee, who were on the ones & twos and playing the music for the patrons to enjoy their night out.
Before I go, I must say ... the cutting of the cakes experience, with the lighting of the sparklers, the champagne popping; it was like all a blur at one point in time, because it happened all so fast! Oh, also , now this has to be mentioned ... the bathing of the birthday man in champagne has to be recorded as an extraordinary event and memory; one I believe he will remember forever! ... yes that is correct ... Bath In Champagne!
Sparklers! Champagne! Model Show! Cake Cutting! 166 Family! Nigeria @ 50!
Peek-Ah-Boo ... we See You!

... worth the bitter after taste!
