"Is My Love Not Enough": Joeboy & Jemima In Short Film | Fab.ng

Afrobeats star Joeboy and emerging artist Chimamanda Pearl Chukwuma, known as Qing Madi, have collaborated on the captivating short film. It is titled “Is My Love Not Enough.” AY Papi directed this short movie. This short film serves as an intriguing sneak peek for their upcoming project, which is a highly anticipated new song.

The story revolves around Joeboy’s character, a mechanic named Joe, or Young Legend, who faces challenges in his relationship with Belema, played by Jemima Osunde. Despite giving Belema 90% of his earnings, Joe’s efforts prove insufficient. This led to an unexpected breakup. Seeking guidance, Joe turns to his friend Madi, played by Qing Madi, who offers him a new strategy.

The short film effectively serves as a powerful marketing tool, skillfully combining humour and emotional depth. Keeping the release date under wraps adds to the suspense. The relatable portrayal of a complex relationship marred by financial differences strikes a chord with a broad audience.

Clearly, Joeboy and Qing Madi have managed to capture the public’s imagination, as evidenced by their recent activity on social media, which only adds to the excitement surrounding their collaboration.

Joeboy posted recently on X saying, “Ready for part 2?” to which Qing Madi playfully followed up in the thread, saying, ”Qings, Are youuu???👀🤭”.

With an open-ended conclusion, the short film leaves viewers wanting more, just like the mystery surrounding the upcoming single’s release date.

Coachella: See How Nigerian Artistes Showed Up | Fab.ng

Coachella, the undisputed king of summer music festivals (and some would say the entire year!), wasn’t just about the music this year. Nigerian artists came to slay, not only with their incredible performances but also with their on-point fashion sense.

From show-stopping stage outfits that shimmered under the desert lights to effortlessly cool looks that dominated street-style snaps, these talented Nigerians made sure all eyes were on them.

Here’s a closer look at how they brought their A-game and stole the show at Coachella!

Fireboy DML brought a fresh, Gen Z vibe to Coachella. He rocked a loose-fitting jersey that proudly displayed the Nigerian coat of arms, paired with super baggy pants. It was a cool and casual look that felt perfect for the festival atmosphere.

Joining the Nigerian takeover at Coachella was DJ Spinall! He wasn’t there to perform with a band, but he kept the party going with a hot DJ set. Staying true to his signature style, DJ Spinall rocked a classic white shirt and trousers, finishing the look off with his well-known cap and scarf.

Nigerian superstar Tems absolutely blew everyone away at Coachella! Channelling the legendary Diana Ross, she looked like royalty in a stunning black sequined gown. With her voluminous, fluffy hair, she absolutely commanded the stage. But Tems didn’t stop there. She surprised the audience (and the entire internet!) with an epic performance alongside Wizkid and even Justin Bieber. Needless to say, the crowd went wild!

‘Esther Was Black And Broke’ Challenge: Just Colourism Or Fun Wordplay?

'Esther Was Black And Broke' Challenge | Fab.ng

A recent social media challenge has people talking but is also sparking some controversy. The “Esther was Black and Broke” challenge started on TikTok with a wordplay. The phrase “Esther bleached” sounds like “establish,” and many people used the sound to show their own “glow up” over time.

This glow-up could involve better phones, trendier clothes, or even a change in skin tone for some. Celebrities like Mercy Eke, Toyin Abraham, Real Warri Pikin, Saga Deolu, and Tacha Akide even joined in!

However, not everyone loves this challenge. Some people say it promotes colourism, the idea that lighter skin is better than darker skin. They worry the challenge suggests having dark skin is unattractive. A TV host even spoke out against it on social media.

I fear that being black is associated with being broke… But as a dark-skinned black woman who has had to deal with colourism even here in Nigeria, I fear that we are passing a subtle message that dark skin is ugly. It’s all fun and games until your dark-skinned child doesn’t like their skin colour because they heard that Esther was black and broke.”

While some disagreed, many celebrities and influencers in Olive Emodi’s post supported her concerns. Music producer Don Jazzy fully agreed, and lifestyle influencer Powede Awujo pointed out that humour can sometimes lead to bigger issues.

Colourism, especially in entertainment, is a serious problem. Actress Beverly Naya has spoken out about how it affects people, even leading some young women to use dangerous skin-bleaching products.

The World Health Organisation says Nigeria has the highest rate of people using harmful skin-lightening chemicals. The popularity of these bleaching creams shows this isn’t just a funny trend; it’s a real problem with negative consequences.
