It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time,” says British author, Samuel Johnson. And as friends, fans and family mourn the passing of songwriter, music critic and performer, Olumuyiwa Osinuga, aka Nomoreloss, not many are bothered about how he died, but why he should live for all that he lived for, including saving the life of colleague, OJB Jezreel.
Indeed, two days after his demise on Monday March 21, 2016, details of his death did not as much matter like songs such as Ehen, which he did with Ruggedman, critiquing some of their colleagues, and suing for professionalism; Iyawo Asiko, a rap remix of Orlando Owoh’s hit of the same title, and from his 2015 Grass to Grace album, tracks such as Ojuri, Ololufe, Imagine,All the time, Kini and Omo Africa among others.
Nomoreloss was said to have been hospitalised two weeks ago after being diagnosed of typhoid fever. He was said to have been discharged and recovering before the relapse that led to his death.
Mourning the passing of the artiste, his colleagues have been pouring out their heart on the various social media platforms.
“Hey soldier, words fails me today because two days ago I cast you as a character in my new film,” said Dancehall artiste, Baba Dee, via his Facebook wall.
He added: “You were one of my selfless men in this selfish industry, you did your best and you made your mark.
“We shall all go someday but Muyiwa this is to me a great shock, rest in peace my padi, mourn you till we join you .R.I.P’’.
Cally Ikpe of Callyvision Networks and founder of the Nigeria Music Video Awards (NMVA) said: “Farewell Nomoreloss, no one ever doubted your versatility, talent and love for your industry.
“You gave so much and kept giving, even now as I write, I expect my phone to beep to a message from you, offering opportunities to young talents to express themselves.
“That was just a bit of your commitment to see the industry grow
“We will miss you till we meet you again, farewell Nomoreloss.”
Obviously pained by the demise of his colleague, Ruggedman was critical of the music environment the deceased found himself when he said; “Those who never called to ask how you are doing will appear.
“God knows and sees all.
“Those who demanded for money before playing your music or showing your videos will now play it, because after your death, it is now good material for their shows. God sees all.
“I appreciate every contribution you made to my career, God bless you bro, till we meet again, who knows, we might finally get to do “Ehen part 2’’.
