D’banj Reunites with Don Jazzy for ‘Entertainer’ Sequel

Lagos, Nigeria – Veteran Afrobeat singer Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo, popularly known as D’banj is working with his friend and Veteran producer Don Jazzy ahead of the release of his highly anticipated new album, “The Entertainer: The Sequel,” on Friday, August 16, 2024.

D’banj made the announcement in a video on Tuesday morning on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle. He posted, “The Entertainer D’Sequel | Out 16.08.24. The eye-catching teaser (video) features the Koko Master as D’banj is fondly called, Don Jazzy, Nollywood actor Gideon Okeke, TV host Jimmie Akinsola, and others in a short play that left fans anticipating.

The trailer, which has the feel of an espionage movie, features an intense interrogation scene. The highlight comes when D’banj delivers a powerful line:”Just because the soldier rests his gun doesn’t mean he’s no longer a shooter. People keep asking me if I’m back, if I’m back. How can I be back when I never left?I am the entertainer”.

Earlier this year, D’banj celebrated his 20th anniversary in the music industry with a series of releases. In May, he dropped the single “04,” followed by “Koko” in June, which is a modern reimagining of his 2005 hit “Tongolo.” He also released “Worthy,” a collaborative track featuring Senegalese music legend Youssou N’Dour and Nigerian-American “The Voice” contestant Chechi Sarai.

Few weeks ago D’banj dropped the tracklist for the album.
