Abuja, September 12, 2024 – At what was expected to be a celebratory event filled with joy and music, AfroBeats sensation NYcee of KuliKuli Entertainment turned a special moment into a heartfelt tribute, honoring two iconic figures in Nigerian music—Mobad and the legendary Onyeka Onwenu. The one-minute silence was declared during the KuliKuli Entertainment Flag-Off event, which coincided with NYcee’s birthday celebration in Abuja. The gesture added a deeply emotional and respectful tone to what was already a night to remember.

Honoring Music Legends: Mobad and Onyeka Onwenu

Before the lively performances kicked off, NYcee took to the stage to address the audience in a moment of reflection. She dedicated a one-minute silence to the late Afrobeat star Mobad, a young, rising talent who tragically passed away, and to Onyeka Onwenu, an iconic figure who has been a trailblazer for women in the Nigerian music industry and a tireless advocate for social causes.

Standing tall and poised, NYcee spoke with heartfelt emotion as she acknowledged the immense contributions both Mobad and Onyeka Onwenu had made to the world of music.

Her Words: “We Celebrate Their Legacy”

“As we celebrate my birthday and the launch of KuliKuli Entertainment tonight, it’s important that we also recognize those who paved the way for us and those we’ve sadly lost too soon,” NYcee said. “Mobad’s vibrant energy and creativity lit up stages, and his absence is felt deeply by everyone in our community. Likewise, Onyeka Onwenu’s unwavering dedication to both music and her advocacy work has inspired generations. Tonight, we celebrate their legacy.”

The room fell silent, and the audience, including musicians, fans, and industry leaders, bowed their heads in a somber moment of tribute. The gesture of respect resonated with all present, reminding everyone that music is not just about beats and melodies but also about the people whose lives have touched the hearts of many.

A Star With a Heart of Gold

Known for her infectious energy, stunning performances, and deep connection to her fans, NYcee proved once again why she is a rising star with a heart of gold. Her decision to honor Mobad and Onyeka Onwenu during such a monumental event demonstrated her humility and sense of community, qualities that have endeared her to her growing fan base.

Beyond her music, NYcee has consistently used her platform to advocate for meaningful causes, from supporting underprivileged communities in Africa to promoting access to sanitary products for girls in rural areas. This recent tribute is yet another example of her commitment to using her influence for good.

The KuliKuli Flag-Off: More Than Just Music

While the one-minute silence was a touching part of the evening, the event itself was also a significant milestone for KuliKuli Entertainment, a rising force in the African entertainment industry. The flag-off ceremony marked the official launch of the company’s mission to bring African music, particularly AfroBeats, to global audiences, with NYcee leading the charge.

Held at a prestigious venue in Abuja, the hybrid event allowed both in-person and virtual attendees to join the celebration. It featured electrifying performances, exciting announcements, and a sneak peek into KuliKuli Entertainment’s upcoming projects, which include artist collaborations, international tours, and innovative event management.

A Night of Reflection and Celebration

NYcee’s birthday was also celebrated in style, with cake-cutting, live performances, and shout-outs from some of the biggest names in the Nigerian and African music industries. However, it was her tribute to Mobad and Onyeka Onwenu that truly touched the hearts of everyone in attendance, creating a beautiful balance between celebration and reflection.

As she continues her journey as one of the fresh faces of AfroBeats, NYcee has shown that she’s not only dedicated to her craft but also deeply connected to her roots, her community, and the legends that have paved the way for artists like her.

Conclusion

NYcee’s one-minute silence in honor of Mobad and Onyeka Onwenu stands as a powerful reminder that while we celebrate new milestones and the future of African music, it’s just as important to honor the legacies of those who’ve shaped it. Her thoughtful tribute, alongside the KuliKuli Entertainment flag-off, made the night a truly memorable one, setting the stage for great things to come.

NYcee has proven, once again, that she is not just a star in the making—she is a voice of compassion and a leader in the ever-evolving landscape of AfroBeats. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for her and KuliKuli Entertainment as they continue to make waves across the globe.
