Glo Subscribers Get Access To Exclusive Songs As Ringback Tunes

For the next few months, only Globacom subscribers will be
able to download the latest songs of some of Nigeria’s hottest artistes as
caller ring back tunes, as the operator has just added new set of music titles
to the collection of songs on its Caller Ringback Tune (CRBT) platform.

By this development, Glo Mobile subscribers will be able to
have exclusive access to many of Nigeria’s most anticipated new music releases
from popular artistes by simply subscribing to Glo Mobile’s Caller Ringback
Tune platform. The exclusive songs are joining pre-existing titles of virtually
all the popular music artistes in Nigeria on Globacom’s CRBT platform.

The newly rejuvenated platform was officially unveiled at a
press conference at the company’s corporate head office in Victoria Island
recently and later the same day at a well-attended Industry Nite in Lagos.

The artistes on the platform include cross-over highlife
rave-of-the-moment, Flavour, and talented female artistes Omawumi, Chee, Burna
Boy, MI, Naeto C and one of the best known artistes from the North, Sanni
Danja.

“Nigerians would readily recall that we blazed the CRBT
trail in Nigeria over seven years ago when for the first time in Nigeria, we
made it possible for our subscribers to download their favourite tunes and make
them their ringback tunes. Others were to follow the trail, and today, Nigerian
artistes net millions of naira in revenue from their music distributed by
mobile operators in the country through the CRBT platform,” said Nagasai.

The songs that Glo customers can readily access include
Flavour’s dancehall blaster, “Wake Up’, featuring Wande Coal; Omawumi’s latest
release currently ruling the airwaves, “Megbele” in addition to her existing
songs; Naeto C’s collaborative effort featuring Phyno, “China”; Burna Boy’s
“Checks and Balance”; Sanni Danja’s “Alhaji” and Chee’s collaborative work with
Olamide, “No More”.

Speaking at the ceremony, Naeto C said the capabilities of
Glo’s CRBT are well above similar platforms by other operators, as Glo
subscribers can shuffle their song collections and choose anyone for their
callers. According to him, this and other innovations are the reasons Globacom
is the leader in innovation in the sector.

Another artiste, Omawumi commended Globacom for generating
revenue for artistes. She described the launch of Glo Exclusive as laudable and
heart-warming.

CRBT MI Abaga on his own part said, “Glo has raised the bar
with the exclusive caller ring back tunes by moving to the next level. It
signals another dimension for Nigerian music”.

To download Flavour’s ‘Wake up’, subscribers are requested
to text 300 to 7728, while they are requested to text 100 to 7728 for Naeto C’s
“China”,  and 500 to 7728 for Omawumi’s
‘Megbele.’

Subscribers can download Burna Boy’s “Checks and Balance” by
texting 200 to 7728; Sanni Danja’s “Alhaji”, by texting 400 to 7728; Omawumi’s
“Megbele” by texting 500 to 7728, and Chee’s “No More” by texting 600 to 7728.

Globacom brand Ambassadors that graced the Industry Nite
event include Naeto C, Burna Boy, Ego and Sanni Danja. They took turn to thrill
fun seekers with the performance of their hit songs. They graced the hot seat,
