To mark his 60th birthday anniversary, Nigerian/American journalist and singer, Deba Uwadiae, has released a single titled, Mo 60.
Produced by Ohio, US-based Theo Jonah, Mo 60 was released on Sunday April 7, 2024 and it’s already streaming on all digital platforms including Pandora, Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Music, Tik Tok, Media Net, YouTube Music, and YouTube Video.
According to Uwadiae, who attains the diamond age on April 16, “Mo 60 is a song of celebration and dedication to God. It is my own way of thanking God for keeping me alive till the age of 60 and more, despite the storms of life. Mo 60 is, however, a timeless track that will excite all birthday celebrants no matter their age.”
Speaking about the song, a music critic, Tosin Ajirire, says, “Mo 60 is a celebration song for anyone turning 60 and appreciating the honour and favour of God in his or her live. It is a tapestry of dynamic vocals, rhythmic chorus and compelling instrumentation that will send the listener or birthday celebrant straight to the dance floor. The classic Afro-highlife tune is a timeless work of art that will be around for as long as people celebrate birthdays.”
Aside being a musician, Deba Uwadiae is also the publisher of New Americans magazine and author of Coming to America: Early Life in America and Citizenship. He equally oversees activities at the New American Community Information Center in Columbus, Ohio, United States of America.
