Waje whose birth name is Aituaje Iruobe has made waves on the musical scene for over a decade. The highly acclaimed Waje, an acronym for "Words Aren’t Just Enough" came onto the world stage through the 2008 record-breaking hit ‘Do Me’ by Nigerian duo P.Square. Waje has gone from strength to strength from then, having been featured in international collaborations with Wyclef Jean and Kerri Wilson to cite but a few. A native of Ondo State and graduate from University of Nigeria, Waje’s voice covers three octaves, a talent that landed her the title of the first female judge on the vocal sensation show ‘The Voice Nigeria’. As one of Nigeria’s biggest singers, Waje has also successfully dipped her toes into the acting scene, making her acting debut in the 2014 Nigerian drama Tunnel. 

Nigerian rapper and singer Owoh Chimaobi Chrismathner whose stage name is Zoro Swagbag is also set to take the Double Wahala stage by storm. The baby faced rhymester made a name for himself following a series of hit songs like the highly acclaimed tracks 042, Otu, Owu sa gi and Safe Journey. Also known as the king of Igbo rap, Zoro Swagbag has also marked music lovers for his collaborations with equally established performers such as Flavour, Rydda, Hcien, Lord Cornel, Falz the Bad guy, Kool P, Skip and veteran Congolese musician Awilo Longomba.The Anambra State native raps in Igbo, his mother tongue, sprinkled with Pidgin to reach out to a wider audience. Like Niniola who has graced the Double Wahala stage, Zoro Swagbag is among the growing number of Nigerian artists who proudly sing in their native languages. Watch Zoro Swagbag's latest hit 'Mbada' and get ready to be blown away by this Nigerian prodigy:

We hope you are as excited as we are to have the versatile Waje and Zoro Swagbag share their gifts with the BBNaija world.
