The award winning music talent discovery and
grooming competition, MTN Project Fame West Africa is back for an eighth
straight season. Looking for raw talents, the annual show will commence
auditions from today in some West African major cities and rest the auditions
in Lagos on the 3rd and 4th of July.
This year, thousands of young talents will
fight to get into the prestigious Project Fame Academy, where superstars are
made, to be tutored by the best in the music and entertainment industry. For
this Season, a major innovation that encourages participation from the comfort
of one’s home has been introduced.
According to Mr Olumide Akinlabi, the
spokesperson of Ultima Limited, the producer of the show, aspiring contestants
can simply “dial 5900 from their mobile phone (MTN Line Only) and follow the
voice prompt to record their audio audition for 45 seconds.”
Akinlabi stated that after this, the applicant
will receive a notification PIN number within 24 hours, which will be used to
register online.
Previous superstars that have graduated from
the ‘Fame Academy’ include Iyanya Mbuk, whose Kukere, with the famous Etighi
dance won the best pop single on the 2012 Headies Award in Lagos; Mike
Anyasodo, who by virtue of his Fine Fine Lady video won the 2010 Sound City’s
