WACONZY FEEDS 1000 LAGOS BEGGARS & LESS PRIVILEGED ON HIS BIRTHDAY
Afropop/Afrobeat Superstar Waconzy turned a year older on Saturday, August 10, 2013.
The 'I celebrate' singer, obviously humbled by the event, thanked God for a successful music journey in which he has toured the world, armed with his music and preaching the lyrical gospel of creativity and positivity to his massive fan population the world over.
Not content with popping bottles alone, Waconzy did some unusual sharing. The singer spent a great deal of his time, feeding over 1000 beggars and the less privileged at different areas in Lagos.
Well, as every good thing must end, Sunday, today, had Waconzy having a thanksgiving service at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). Where he’s sure to have some quality bonding moment with his Maker.
What an excellent way to celebrate a Birthday!

JAY Z & BEYONCE GIVE EMPLOYEES $6.4 MILLION IN BONUSES
Power couple Beyonce and Jay Z have reportedly given their staff $6.4 million in bonuses.
The pair reportedly gave away huge sums of money to a full-time staff of 80 employees for the three homes they own in addition to staff at Jay Z’s 40/40 clubs.
“He’s spreading the wealth around and everyone is blown away… Nobody got left out. A lot of them couldn’t believe it and phoned his personal assistant to check that there hadn’t been some mistake,” a source told the Daily Star about the 43-year-old entrepreneur - Jay Z.
The couple has been very giving lately, reportedly spending $10,000 on gifts for Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s daughter North when she was born June 15. The items included personalized Christian Dior baby booties and a three-piece sterling silver Elsa Peretti Padova baby set with her name on it.
Mr. and Mrs. Carter have decided to share their wealth in a non-traditional way by making $6.4million rain on their employees.
It's obvious, this couple follows the childhood rule of "sharing is caring."
