Ahmedu Augustine Obiabo, better known as Blackface, a well-known dancehall singer and former member of the iconic Plantashun Boiz group, has expressed doubt about the possibility of a reunion for the group.
The Plantashun Boiz, which consisted of Blackface, 2Face (now known as 2Baba), and Faze, were a prominent force in the Nigerian music industry from the late 1990s to the mid-2000s. Despite a brief reunion in 2007, the group ultimately disbanded in 2004 and has struggled to come back together since then.
In a recent interview with Channels TV, Blackface was adamant that the likelihood of the Plantashun Boiz group reuniting again was extremely slim.
He said:
“I don’t see that [Plantashun Boiz reunion] happening. If it is something that would have happened, the members would have deemed it fit to sit down and discuss going forward. Of which they haven’t done and don’t want to do. I don’t want to cajole someone into doing what they don’t want to do.”
On his relationship with his former bandmates, Blackface said, “I talk to Faze and I talk to brothers of Innocent Idibia [2Baba]. His family are all my friends. But personally me and him we have nothing to discuss. It has to be business. There is no need waiting for who is not ready to be committed to a project.
