Funke Akindele Bello and her husband Abdulrasheed Bello (aka JJC Skillz) continue to solidify their relationship, and now the power couple have joined forces to launch their own record label, SOP Records.
This update comes hours after the Nollywood star surprised the rapper with a heartwarming intimate bash today, his 40th birthday. The actress also dropped a musical video starring her, the rapper’s children, and the new Artistes of SOP Records all of them wishing JJC a happy birthday.
“We had to surprise @jjcskillz and doing that wasn’t easy. He almost caught us recording the song and the video,” the actress shared on her Instagram. The overjoyed JJC couldn’t contain his joy; he’s seen grinning from ear to ear.
With the hearty celebration over, the couple have now unveiled their lineup of artistes which include Gem Stones -a duo consisting of Olanma Pearl Awa-Agwu, the first runner up of MTN Project Fame (season 8), and her twin sister Uzoma Ruby Awa-Agwu; Mo Eazy, Sonorous, and Martin Feelz.
This comes as a surprise to many fans who have come to learn how much it takes to launch an artiste’s career, how much more 5 at a go.
During an Instagram conversation on how much it costs to bring a new artiste into the music industry, Don Jazzy agreed that up to $500k could be expended on an act but yield zero profit, a point many other music bosses like NotJustOk’s Ovie Ofugara and Paul Okoye also agreed with.
However Funke and JJC have shown faith in these young, upcoming stars by bringing them to the spotlight at the same time, and we are super happy for them.
