Highlights of the past week started today’s show and it was Ade Bantu’s visit to the boot camp for a mentoring session with the contestants.

 

Ade Bantu is a Nigerian/German artiste and music producer who have worked with the likes of UB 40, African China, Adewale Ayuba and many others. From his wealth of experience and knowledge, he advised them broadly on issues that border on music, telling them not to limit themselves to a particular genre of music, be open to all kind of music. ‘Music is also a spiritual thing, and you are only a vessel’. Expose yourself to different music styles and be hardworking because it takes a lot of hard work, he advised further. Singing sure is a lot of hard work for these budding stars!

 

A brief clip of Sunday’s show dovetailed into their evening class where Uncle Ben in his class asked why they goofed at their last performances. They all gave different excuses for their poor performances...will excuses take anyone to fame? Uncle Ben in his usual attitude talked senses into them and then doled out the songs to be performed by weekend.
