Jeffrey is officially MTN Project Fame 8.0 ‘The Next’ winner. Jeff’s emergence was the fitting climax of the grand finale of West Africa’s biggest music talent hunt competition which featured performances from A-list artistes alongside the six finalists. He joins the likes of Chidinma, Monica, Olawale, Ayoola, Geoffrey on the MTN Project Fame’s Hall of Fame.
In contrast to previous seasons where contestants had to do their own composition at the grand finale, each of the six contestants was paired with top Nigerian artistes to perform Kedike. Anderson shared the stage with Praiz to perform Rich and Famous while the energetic Deinde and Kukere crooner, Iyanya, thrilled the audience with the remix of Oreo. Arewa and 9ice electrified the stage with their rendition of Gongo Aso, while Ada and Sound Sultan did a remix of Motherland. Interestingly, all the songs performed on the night will be released as singles and will be available for download for the public.
For Jeff, it was a victory well deserved. Though, the youngest amongst the six finalists, the Kogi State-born surmounted the odds to become the MTN Project Fame 8.0 winner as well as the youngest winner in the history of the competition through hard work, diligence and focus. Jeff went to the bank with N5 million. He also walked away with a brand new SUV and a recording contract worth millions of naira.
