After my university days and my youth service period\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I brought out my first album titled Togo Najia Connection, which contain tracks likes; it\u2019s \u201cA\u00a0 Party ft Tinny\u201d from Ghana, \u201cPredencia\u201d, \u201cShow Luv ft Rough Rugged\u201d and \u201cRaw\u2019, \u2018Togo\u00a0 Connection\u201d and \u201cLifeft W4\u201d.<br \/>\nHe shot three videos from that album; \u2018Togo Connection\u201d, \u201cPredencia\u201d and \u201cIts Party FT Tinny\u201d\u00a0 which was shot in Ghana.<br \/>\nRay G went back to writing and recording with some of the hottest producers in Nigeria, like Jiggy Jegs, J Sleek, Spanky, Together, they recorded Otutu, a single which, despite its unreleased status, went on to feature prominently in NYSC camps in both Eastern and Western Nigeria in 2008 and beyond.<br \/>\nIn a bid to discover how well he had developed since signing to Warlor Records, a record label owned by his brother, Peter,\u00a0 a successful businessman who has been very supporting and encouraging to his career as a musician. He thereafter released his new album titled \u2018Unexpected\u2019.<br \/>\n\u201cmy new album, \u201cUnexpected\u201d,\u00a0 a 15 track album featuring Nigeria\u2019s finest, Timaya, Sound sultan, W4, JayWon , Tamara\u00a0 from (Naija Sings) and many more. The album carries some of his hit singles that have been rocking the air before now, like; Otutu ft Jaywon and W4, sile sile and spend my money ft Timaya\u201d.<br \/>\nRay G deviates from what we\u2019ve seen in his body of work so far. We see Ray as he is fondly addressed by his admirers, drop the playful and loving demeanor for a more rough edged foray into the struggle that has come to make up the fast rising musical act we see today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ray G\u00a0 (real name Uwoloh Nwabueze Raymond) is a Afro Hip Hop artiste, and an enthusiast.
