“As the festive season pulls to an end,we must not forget to celebrate the successes and musical acts of the preceding year. One such act is Okey Collins Anioke or Oakcee as he is better known. This contemporary R&B artist, Oakcee, was born in Nigeria where he spent most of his formative years and where he attended seminary school. His calling would later change as the love of music ushered him towards a new path.From his background of singing gospel songs, Oakcee has moved on to predominately romantic ballads. This is partly why his sound and lyrics are very evocative of American artists like Babyface, 112. He has even been described by some as the “Akon of Switzerland”.He brought out his first CD entitled Time in 2009.The Time EP received positive reviews in Switzerland and the United Kingdom, and was aired by local radio stations in both countries.His music has all the qualities to attain new levels in the contemporary urban music scene.”
“Our very own Saviour of Breakfast, Ed Smart was the first to give Oakcee airplay here in the UK. After the play of his song we had this communication from him:- “I would like to say a very special Thanks to you, it was awesome, I felt so much joy listening to my first ever UK radio airplay on RWS, when Blackstreet came on air I realized why you said that I’m gonna like the first 2 songs before mine, brilliant:-).Your show was like you said, entertaining, good humoured and fun to listen to.” Oakcee will be joining Ed and Rob live from Switzerland on the BIG Breakfast Show between 9-10am on Saturday 7 November. Here’s some info that you might like to see about this up and coming young man.”
