Mavin 5th Anniversary
After the collapse of Mo'Hits Records, founded by Nigerian producer Don Jazzy and Nigerian singer D'banj, the ace music producer, Don Baba J went further to create another record label, Supreme Mavin Dynasty, popularly known as Mavin Records, which can be said to be one of the best record label in the Nigerian music industry with A list artists such as Tiwa Savage, Inyanya, Dr. SID, Di'ja, Reekado Banks, and Korede Bello.
Today we will be revealing five things you need to know about Mavin, if you already don't, about this phenomenal Nigerian Record Label.
- the real name of Mavin Record is SUPREME MAVIN DYNASTY... yea, we know, it is a mouthful for one label, guess that's why they decided to just flow with being called Mavin, but why not Supreme (sounds like ice cream)... what about Dynasty??? (Sounds like Fantastic League cartoon) or... whatever! Mavin it is, and we love it like that.
- The record label, in the last five years, has made it its duty to sign talented artiste with sensational content that can drive the Nigerian market to excitement and with hit songs such as My Darling, Godwin, Take Banana, Eminado, plus their collaborations as MAVIN in Dorobucci, Jantamanta, Adaobi, Looku looku and many more hits.
- In the five years of its existence, the label has produced over 50 singles for its artistes with 8 Albums for almost all artristes except Di'ja who has no album yet top her name... why is what we really want to ask her, but we'll just hope an album drops soon.
- In 2013, Mavin Records was nominated for Best Record Label of The Year in the City People Entertainment Award but didn't win it. Fast track to 2014, the label was nominated again for the same award and won it... Yay!
- The fifth thing you should know about this strong powerhouse which is home to 10 artiste presently is it's first album titled "Solar Plexus", a compilation album released on May 8, 2012, same day the record label was launched. The album was given to the public for free, no extra or hidden charges except your data for download. This beautiful "osho-free" pushed the public to the recently created Mavin's website which crashed the website two times in a roll, forcing the Record Label to release the song to other music websites for download... I'm sure you are one of the Solar Plexus beneficiaries... you know na.
- I know I said five, but hey, this sixth info is a very vital one. It is important to note that Don Jazzy is not the only producer in Supreme Mavin Dynasty. The record label boasts of three producers namely; Don Jazzy, Atims, and Baby Fresh.
