Pedro has quickly become one of the standout performers under Xabi Alonso, helping Chelsea produce an entertaining attacking display in the opening weeks of the season. The Brazilian contributed two goals and two assists as the Blues recorded consecutive wins over Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Reflecting on his performances, Pedro picked out his goal against Fulham as his favourite moment of the month.

“I think my favorite goal was the chip against Fulham, and my favorite assist … I think against Fulham, as well,” Pedro told club media. “That game was special because I’ve already scored many times by chipping the goalkeepers, and I gave back the pass to CP [Cole Palmer] and he scored.”

The Chelsea forward came out on top of a shortlist that also featured teammate Cole Palmer, who previously won the award in September 2024.

Pedro has also developed an encouraging partnership with Palmer and new signing Morgan Rogers, with the trio offering Chelsea plenty of creativity in attack.

“We link up very good,” Pedro said of his relationship with Palmer and new signing Morgan Rogers. “We are similar but, in the same way, different. I think it is very good for Chelsea to have us in front.”

While Chelsea have enjoyed a strong start, Hull City have arguably provided one of the biggest surprises of the opening weeks.

Jakirović has overseen an unbeaten start that has seen Hull collect seven points from their first three matches. The Tigers opened their campaign with a statement 2–0 victory over Manchester United before following it up with another win against newly promoted Coventry City and a draw with Aston Villa.

That impressive run has lifted Hull to third place in the Premier League table and earned Jakirović the managerial prize ahead of Mikel Arteta, Xabi Alonso, and Enzo Maresca.

The award also makes Jakirović the first Bosnian manager in Premier League history to claim the Manager of the Month honour.

Interestingly, his next challenge comes against the very player who has just been recognised as the league’s best for August. Hull City travel to Stamford Bridge on Saturday to face Pedro and Chelsea, with only one point separating the two sides heading into the weekend.

The winger has emerged as an increasingly important part of Chelsea’s plans since the arrival of manager Xabi Alonso, with his versatility and work rate making him a regular feature in the Blues’ evolving tactical setup.

Neto’s improved contract adds another year to his previous agreement, which was due to run until 2031. The new terms also represent a reward for the impact he has made since joining Chelsea from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2024 for a reported £51.4 million.

Reacting to the extension, Neto spoke about his growing attachment to the club and his belief that there is still plenty more to accomplish in West London.

‘It’s an unbelievable moment for me and my family. I feel at home here. I feel like I want to achieve more things here. I’m really excited because I think we can achieve a lot of things together.’

The decision to extend Neto’s stay also fits into Chelsea’s wider strategy of rewarding key members of their squad with improved contracts. The club recently handed Joao Pedro a new deal, while captain Reece James and midfielder Moises Caicedo have also received fresh terms during the year.

Neto’s future had looked less certain during the most recent transfer window, when his performances reportedly attracted interest from other Premier League clubs, including Manchester City. However, the Portuguese remained at Chelsea and has since strengthened his position within the team.

A major factor behind his improved standing has been Alonso’s willingness to use Neto in a more flexible role. The Spaniard has deployed him in positions where his attacking ability can be combined with his willingness to track back and contribute defensively.

Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Hull City, Alonso highlighted the range of qualities Neto brings to his side.

‘For me, he is a winger. You can call him a winger or a wing-back because he has many qualities. He can play on the last line and he can defend on the first line, so he has the capacity to do many things. He is good in one-on-one situations, he is scoring goals and he has a fantastic work rate.’

Neto’s ability to cover ground and switch quickly between attacking and defensive duties has made him particularly suited to Alonso’s approach. The manager also revealed that he had been familiar with the player long before taking charge at Stamford Bridge.

‘I knew him well from watching many of Chelsea’s games. With him, you know that he is going to compete and you want those kinds of players in your team. I am very happy with Pedro and the work he is doing.’

With his long-term future now settled, Neto can focus fully on his role in Alonso’s Chelsea project as the club continues to build around a core of players viewed as important to its plans for the years ahead.

Speaking on the One54 Africa podcast, the singer explained that confirming their genotype compatibility was an important step for him before pursuing a relationship that could eventually lead to marriage and children.

According to Adekunle Gold, he viewed the decision less as a matter of romance and more as a responsibility to the children they could potentially have together.

“There’s no way I would have done that. When we met, the first thing we did, I had to know her genotype or that we match. If we did not… so she’s AA,” he said.

The singer went on to speak about the need for greater awareness around sickle cell disease, particularly among young people who may not know the implications of genotype compatibility when choosing a partner.

“There’s so much awareness that needs to be done, you know, tell people that if you have sickle cell, forget love, you can’t do it. It makes no sense, because you’re about to bring a child to the world and the child is about to be sickly. What’s the point?” he said.

Adekunle Gold further maintained that he would not have gone ahead with marriage if he and Simi had incompatible genotypes. For him, the decision was ultimately about avoiding a situation that could put their future children at risk.

“I wouldn’t have married my wife if she were SS or AS. She’s AA. I don’t think it makes sense to bring a child into this world and they’d be sickly.” — Singer Adekunle Gold https://t.co/FMDGLjJNgi

— Instablog9ja (@instablog9ja) September 10, 2026

His position is also connected to his personal experience with sickle cell disease. Having lived with the condition throughout his life, the singer has consistently used his platform to encourage conversations around genotype testing and sickle cell awareness.

Beyond speaking publicly about the issue, Adekunle Gold has also established a foundation to support people affected by sickle cell disease and raise awareness of the condition.

The singer and Simi have since built a family together after years of friendship and romance, becoming one of Nigeria’s most recognisable celebrity couples while continuing to maintain successful careers in music.

The news was made public by car dealer Abujacar in a post shared on X on Thursday. According to the dealer, the 2026 Ferrari Purosangue purchased by the singer is valued at an impressive N1.6 billion.

Celebrating the reported acquisition, Abujacar wrote:

“Congratulations, @KizzDaniel, on the acquisition of your brand-new 2026 Ferrari Purosangue, valued at ₦1.6 billion.
An exceptional machine for an exceptional artist. A new chapter in automotive excellence. Welcome to the future,” he wrote.

The Ferrari Purosangue is among the Italian automaker’s most notable luxury models, combining high-performance engineering with an upscale interior and a distinctive design. Its price tag also places it firmly among the more extravagant additions to any celebrity garage.

For Kizz Daniel, the reported purchase adds another major luxury vehicle to the lifestyle surrounding his successful music career, coming as the singer continues to make waves with his music and international presence.

Interestingly, the reported acquisition comes shortly after fellow Afrobeats heavyweight Davido also made headlines over his latest luxury car additions, giving fans yet another reason to talk about the lavish automobile collections of Nigeria’s biggest music stars.

The music star shared the advice during a recent street interview while out with his wife, Temi Otedola. When asked about an important quality people should look out for while building a successful life, Mr Eazi simply replied, “Marry a good wife.”

He went on to mention discipline, patience, and the fear of God as other qualities he believes can make a difference for young adults trying to find their feet.

Advising those coming behind him, the singer said, “I would say discipline, patience, and fear of God.”

Mr Eazi also looked back on some of the tougher moments that came with building his career, particularly the experience of having people question his abilities and decisions.

According to him, moments of doubt can also become motivation when approached with the right mindset. Reflecting on his own experience, he said, “The difficulty of unbelief when you are being second-guessed. You can turn it into something that drives you as well.”

His comments come against the backdrop of a career that has seen him establish himself not only as a prominent figure in African music but also as an entrepreneur with interests beyond entertainment.

Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola have also remained in the spotlight as one of Nigeria’s notable celebrity couples. The pair got married in 2025 after several years together and have occasionally given fans glimpses into their relationship.

With both maintaining successful careers across different creative and business spaces, their marriage has continued to attract public interest, particularly at the intersection of music, fashion, business and family.

The conversation began after Zlatan shared a glimpse of one of his bank accounts, showing a balance of more than N500 million. The revelation quickly caught the attention of social media users, with many reacting to the sizeable figure.

Portable was among those who found the amount difficult to believe. The singer questioned how a musician could have such a large sum sitting in a personal account, suggesting that there could be more to the figure than meets the eye.

Taking his reaction further, Portable speculated that the money may not belong to Zlatan personally. He also suggested that if the rapper indeed owned the entire sum, it could raise questions about possible money laundering or other activities that had not been made public.

Zlatan eventually caught wind of Portable’s comments and responded in his usual playful manner. Rather than engage in a lengthy back-and-forth, the rapper teased Portable for being surprised by the amount in his account.

”With all the soap and Fanta, 500m still go far for my guy eye”, he responded.

The exchange has since added another entertaining moment to the ongoing social media conversations surrounding Nigerian celebrities, with fans weighing in on both artistes’ reactions.

The new single finds the outspoken artiste in familiar territory, using the record to address his critics and anyone attempting to challenge his position in the African music space. With his confidence turned all the way up, Shatta Wale presents himself as an artist who has no plans of slowing down.

Musically, Catch Me If You Can comes with a charged-up dancehall production that blends the raw energy of Jamaican dancehall with elements of contemporary Afropop. Heavy bass, sharp percussion, and tense synth arrangements give the record a restless momentum from start to finish.

Over the aggressive instrumental, Shatta Wale delivers his signature raspy vocals with the kind of force that has become a major part of his stage presence. His chants and commanding delivery add a street-ready quality to the track, making it feel built for loudspeakers and energetic dancehall sessions.

The lyrics are largely centred on confidence, longevity and competition. Shatta Wale uses the song to highlight his years in the industry, financial independence and strong relationship with his fanbase, turning the record into another statement of his staying power.

There is little restraint in his delivery. From the opening moments, he takes an unapologetic approach, throwing shots at his perceived rivals while making it clear that he remains comfortable standing on his own.

With Catch Me If You Can, Shatta Wale once again leans into the fearless personality that has helped make him one of Ghana’s most recognisable dancehall figures. It is loud, confrontational, and full of the raw energy his supporters have come to expect from him.

For fans who have followed the duo’s journey, the reunion carries a familiar feeling. Boj and Ajebutter22 have previously shared a strong creative partnership, particularly through projects such as Make E No Cause Fight, and their latest collaboration finds them returning to the laid-back sound that has long defined their chemistry.

“Time Of Our Lives” rides on a smooth, understated production built around subtle drum patterns, warm electric piano melodies, and a steady bassline.

Rather than going for an overly busy arrangement, the record keeps things simple, allowing the groove to breathe and creating an easygoing mood suited to Lagos’ nightlife scene.

The song itself is a playful take on enjoying life, romance and taking things easy. Ajebutter22 brings his familiar conversational rap style, touching on everything from fashion and relationships to everyday Nigerian culture with his usual dry humour and witty observations.

Boj handles the melodic side of the record with a soulful, textured delivery, adding a catchy hook that sits comfortably over the production and balances Ajebutter22’s laid-back verses.

Together, the pair once again demonstrate why their partnership has remained a notable one within Nigeria’s alternative music space. Time Of Our Lives doesn’t try too hard to make a statement; instead, it leans into the effortless chemistry between two artists who clearly understand the sound they created together.

The result is a chilled, replay-friendly record that feels right at home on a late-night Lagos drive, rooftop hangout, or relaxed weekend playlist.

The collaboration blends different musical worlds into one laid-back record, connecting the sounds of Lagos, Kingston, and Miami while maintaining a smooth Afro-fusion identity.

Built around slow, atmospheric production, As We Get High combines elements of Afro-R&B, dancehall, and contemporary hip-hop.

The beat leans heavily on deep bass and spacious instrumentation, creating the kind of late-night mood that works just as well for a chilled beach hangout as it does for a low-lit club setting.

Omah Lay takes the opening spotlight, bringing his familiar emotional delivery and airy vocals to the record. His performance gives the song a reflective edge, setting the mood before BEAM switches things up with a more rhythmic blend of hip-hop and dancehall.

Gyptian then adds his unmistakable reggae presence, giving the track a touch of nostalgia while complementing the younger artists. Despite their different musical backgrounds, the three artists fit surprisingly well into the production, making the collaboration feel seamless rather than forced.

At its core, As We Get High is built around romance, escape and finding moments of peace away from the pressures of everyday life. The song captures that carefree feeling of simply enjoying someone’s company and letting the world fade into the background.

With its cross-cultural lineup and warm, atmospheric sound, As We Get High arrives as a smooth meeting point between Afrobeats, R&B and Caribbean music, offering listeners a fresh soundtrack for the season.

The Konongo-born artist, who has steadily expanded his reach beyond Ghana in recent years, uses the new body of work to reconnect with the raw, introspective sound that has become central to his identity.

Instead of leaning heavily into conventional Afropop formulas, Black Sherif embraces the darker and more theatrical side of his artistry.

Across the EP, he moves through a carefully constructed mix of highlife-inspired trap, stripped-back acoustic textures, and grand orchestral elements. The production gives the songs a cinematic feel, while his gritty vocals remain at the center of each record.

The instrumentation also adds to the project’s dramatic character, with deep basslines, layered guitar patterns, and energetic percussion creating a tense but immersive atmosphere. Each song feels deliberately placed, almost like another chapter in a larger story.

As expected from Black Sherif, the songwriting remains deeply personal. He explores themes surrounding survival, uncertainty, spirituality, and the complicated realities that come with achieving fame at a young age.

He also reflects on the weight of expectations from home while coming to terms with the demands and possibilities of an increasingly global career. Moving comfortably between Twi, English, and Pidgin, the singer and rapper turns those experiences into vivid, emotionally charged stories.

More than just a stopgap release before his next album, SUN SERIF reinforces Black Sherif’s willingness to stay true to the sound and storytelling approach that first separated him from his peers.

With its atmospheric production and unfiltered writing, the EP further establishes the Ghanaian star as one of Africa’s most distinctive musical storytellers, while setting the stage for what could be an even more ambitious album.

Set for release on 27 July 2026, the new Afrobeats song turns the daily search for money, better opportunities, and a brighter future into a lively musical statement.

At the heart of the record is a question many people know too well: “Where the money dey?” It is short, direct, and easy to remember, but it also says a lot about life. For many young people, the search for success is not only about getting rich.

It is about finding a way forward, helping family, reaching personal goals, and refusing to stop when things become difficult.

Simboroba uses that feeling as the main idea behind the song, giving “Where the Money Dey” a message that should connect with listeners who understand the pressure and hope that come with chasing a better life.

• Simboroba keeps the message simple

One of the strengths of “Where the Money Dey” is the simple idea behind it. The song comes from the kind of everyday talk that happens when people discuss work, money, and opportunities. Instead of making the subject feel distant, Simboroba turns it into something musical and easy to relate to.

The repeated phrase “Where the money dey?” gives the record a strong centre. It is the sort of line that can quickly stick in the mind and become part of the song’s identity.

Rather than presenting success as something that comes without effort, Simboroba focuses on the hustle. The record speaks to people who keep working, keep planning, and keep believing even when the results are slow.

Musically, “Where the Money Dey” sits comfortably within the world of modern Afrobeats, while Simboroba’s wider sound also draws from Highlife and contemporary African music. This combination gives him room to make music that can be enjoyed for its rhythm while still carrying a clear message.

That balance is important. A song about ambition could easily become too serious, but Simboroba appears to understand that music can deliver a message without losing its fun. The energy of the record helps keep the subject light enough for everyday listening while the theme remains clear.

For listeners who enjoy Nigerian Afrobeats, Afrobeat music and African music with a message, the single has the ingredients of a record that can fit naturally into playlists built around motivation, hustle and good energy.

• A song shaped by real life

Simboroba’s background also adds another layer to his music. Beyond being a recording artist, he works across several creative and professional fields, including music production, filmmaking, media and engineering.

That mix of interests shows in how he approaches his art, with creativity and everyday experiences feeding into his songs.

His previous releases, including “Baby Boo” and “We Don’t Tire,” have helped establish the direction of his growing catalogue. With “Where the Money Dey,” he turns his attention to one of the biggest subjects in everyday life: the desire to make progress.

The song’s appeal comes from how easy it is to understand. You do not need to be in the same place in life as Simboroba to understand the feeling behind it.

Anyone who has searched for a job, built a business, chased a dream, or hoped for better days can find something familiar in the record.

What started as a post celebrating artists who built their careers without financial backing from wealthy families quickly escalated after Davido, who comes from a prominent and financially comfortable background, challenged the point being made by Erigga.

The conversation began on X on Wednesday when Erigga highlighted musicians who had to work their way up without the advantage of family money. His post focused on the effort required to earn a living and build a career from scratch.

Davido soon joined the conversation, taking issue with the way the message appeared to separate musicians based on their family backgrounds.

The singer argued that coming from a wealthy family does not automatically take away from an artist’s hard work. He maintained that musicians who grew up with financial privilege can still put in the necessary work, face setbacks, and make sacrifices before reaching the top of the industry.

Davido’s response quickly attracted attention online, with social media users split over the argument. While some felt Erigga was simply acknowledging the unique struggles faced by artists from less privileged backgrounds, others agreed with Davido that family wealth should not be used to dismiss an artist’s accomplishments.

• Davido hints at leaving music.

The exchange took another turn when Davido suggested that he could eventually walk away from music and focus more heavily on his financial ambitions and other ventures.

The comment added another layer to the conversation, particularly given the singer’s long-standing reputation for combining his music career with business interests and other investments.

Davido also questioned the idea of celebrating poverty or financial struggle, pushing the conversation beyond the music industry and into a wider debate about how society views wealth and success.

• Social media reacts

As expected, the disagreement quickly became a talking point across X, with fans and observers taking sides.

Supporters of Erigga argued that his original message was not necessarily an attack on wealthy artists but rather recognition for musicians who had to overcome financial limitations while pursuing their dreams.

Davido’s supporters, meanwhile, maintained that an artiste’s privileged upbringing should not automatically invalidate the work that goes into building and maintaining a successful career.

The disagreement has consequently revived a familiar conversation within Nigerian entertainment: Does coming from money reduce the value of an artiste’s success, or can privilege and hard work exist side by side?

• Erigga’s old Davido admiration resurfaces.

The situation gained another interesting twist after Davido dug up an older post from Erigga dating back to the early 2020s, in which the rapper had expressed interest in collaborating with him.

By bringing the old post back into the conversation, Davido added another layer to their ongoing social media back-and-forth.
