Here's Tatafo reporting one of the good things that recently happened in London. Yes oh, good things do happen here too.
Let's give kudos to whom it is due. Nor be every time we go dey celebrate nonsense. Who says nothing good comes out of London?
If I hear...
Last weekend, one of our foremost London socialite hosted a grand vintage party that pulled everyone out of their shells to celebrate with him. It was themed .."The Hat party".
It was Sir Shinene Balogun's 50th birthday party celebration and it was a classic!! Tatafo is yet to see anyone pull such a crowd in London in recent years. People came from all and sundry. It was simply exquisite.
Gist from the party..
Tatafo gathered that the party venue cost Mr Balogun nothing less than 20,000 pounds. Not to mention food and drinks that was a mixture of every every. It is believed that he may have spent nothing less than 50,000 pounds to achieve that beautiful party.
I sure say plenty blog visitors dey that party sef.. *side eyes*
If una see wetin people wear that day una go bow. Different mummies and daddies had to follow the dress code. As the men were forced to wear their suites..and women, their evening gowns with hats. Nor be the usual gele and wrapper wey dem sabi. Meanwhile, It was a mixture of all tribes. And na even my igbo brothers represent pass. Igbokwenu!!!
Na so Tatafo begin see different shapes and sizes of big big belle when people squeeze inside dress. Hian
Not many know that Mr Shinene's wife, Tokunbo, is from Edo state. The very quiet and amiable lady represented well and she was all over the place with their kids to ensure that her husband's guests were adequately catered for.
The fashion icon, Adebayo Jones, anchored the event and it was top notch.
The celebrant, Mr Shinene, has been a known personality in the social scene from the early 80s. Back then, he was the host of many musicians who visited London, and their shows never hit the roof if Shinene was not a part of it.
Shinene Balogun is also known as Mr "what's up G" . There's hardly any party in London that Balogun doesn't attend, hence, he was able to achieve a great turnout for his own birthday party last weekend.
Quite apart from his social life, not many know that Shinene is a renowned Muslim who doesn't joke with his prayers 5 times a day. Tatafo gathered that this man suddenly took a break from being a popular socialite when the chips were down, so to concentrate on his immediate family, serving God, and his community. He's also known to be a philanthropist. Little wonder Shinene is never mentioned in any dirty scandal in London.
So many musicians have in the past composed different melodious anthems to celebrate Mr Shinene Balogun. But top of the anthems is the one by the popular fuji legend, K1 De Ultimate.
**what's up G? Can you rock.. Respect to all the Gees in da house**
Tatafo was also informed that Shinene is now in the craft of making vintage hats for people, as he's known to be a fashion conscious individual whose fashion identity is never complete without his customised hat. Little wonder Adebayo Jones was there to honour him.
Over all, it was a beautiful and a successful outing for the Balogun's in London last weekend.. and everyone is yet to get over the party frenzy. We hope that others will take a cue from Shinene's party.. as per the coordination, because it was free of drama or any razz matters.
Nor be child's play at all..
All the London drama kings and Queens wey attend couldn't believe their eyes, it took them a while to adjust to the posh environment because they were forced out of their 'natural habitat'. It was just too posh for them. Lolz!
Tatafo saw plenty plenty things at the party.. but today choose to highlight the good side of things and to celebrate the good people that were in attendance. Perhaps at a later time tatafo shall bring you the party review and gossip from "the other side".
As una know say my London people nor dey carry last with their snide remarks no matter how perfect any event may appear on the surface.
But who una gossip epp?
Once again Tatafo Congratulates Mr Shinene Balogun. Ermm but oga, where my hat?
Tatafo will be back
Catchya
NB: Stella, Stella, Stella, how many times did I call you? You must play Santa for Tatafo too o. You hear? I love you!

DeleteOk
ReplyDeleteTatafo tell them ooo,I hope those owanbe people will learn from this Shinnene's party,you need to see classy people that attended not London regular faces.The gele,lace and Ankara people,aso ebi things,I don't understand why some people will just be allowing themselves to be exploited,they will sell lace that is worth £40 in the market to you at £150 as aso ebi,Ankara that is £10 will be sold to you at £30 as asó ebi,they will gather all your money and use it to rent hall,buy drinks and pay for caterers,yet they will still treat you as guest when you get to the party,you actually investors oo,cos you invested your hard earned money to foot the bills in that owanbe party.stop allowing yourself to be used,some will even go and borrow money,some will use their children benefit money to buy aso ebi,it's not by force ok,stop trying to belong in fake circle of friends by force.The aso ebi things doesn't makes sense,ebi means family,if you're not a member of the celebrants family you don't need the aso ebi,go to the clothing stores,buy something nice and Wear to parties,clothes you will be able to flaunt and Wear some other time not aso ebi that will get dump in the loft after the party is over cos it won't be of any use to you again.say no to aso ebi,it doesn't define you,it doesn't indicate that you belong,it only shows how stupid and insecure some people are just trying to feel among in a crowd of idiots.only the wise will wise up,I hope the fools too will borrow sense.Anybody that has money and class,and is capable should use their own money to throw their parties not exploiting people.foot your own bills ok
