Face 2 Face (2face Idibia Album)
''Face 2 Face'' is the debut album by 2face Idibia. It was released on May 15, 2004. It became a major hit (sold up to 2 million copies), initially in Idibia's home country of Nigeria, but quickly spreading through western and southern Africa, and eventually making an impact in Europe as well. Its success owed much to lead radio track "African Queen", a guitar ballad with elements of West African folk music and hip-hop. "Nfana Ibaga" also became a local hit.

Hip Hop Skit
A hip hop skit is a form of sketch comedy that appears on a hip hop album or mixtape, and is usually written and performed by the artists themselves. Skits can appear on albums or mixtapes as individual tracks, or at the beginning or end of a song. Some skits are part of concept albums and contribute to an album's concept. Skits also occasionally appear on albums of other genres. The hip-hop skit was more or less pioneered by De La Soul and their producer Prince Paul who incorporated many skits on their 1989 debut album ''3 Feet High and Rising'', however an even earlier example may be found at the end of the Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five hit, '' The Message''. The Hip Hop Skit, although dominant throughout the 90s and the early 2000s, began to be phased out in the latter half of the 2000s and the early 2010s. Reasons for this include the popularity of MP3. Writing for The AV Club, Evan Rytlewski opined that skits may have originally been in vogue because an expanded t ...
