Many who see Chinedu Okoli better known as Flavour Nabania
as he continues to wax stronger and stronger in the world music scene have
continued to wonder where he got that name as it was not his chosen birth name.
We would tell you this for free.
According to findings, Flavour got the name while playing as
a band boy for one musical group then based at a famous bar and club named O’neil in Enugu,
the Coal City.
Those who know say that Flavour was then a determined young
man with over flowing talents and sang most of the songs for the band.
In those days said our source, Chinedu would play all kinds
of styles and songs including highlife, pop, reggae and rock and whenever he
was done, he would ask the audience which other flavors they wanted. And that
was how the name Flavour came to be attached to him. It was not too long before
his music blew and his popularity soared.
After his album Nabania was released, it also
became his surname
