I never knew Azonto until Wizkid sang it, before I heard it was from one Ghanaian, and i'm sure that's how the entire world got Azonto

Frostyzone: Azonto may have originated in Ghana, but it was perfected and repackaged in Nigeria.


Instead of perfecting and repacking someone else's invention why were you not creative enough to invent and popularize your own? As at now I have never heard of a famous Nigerian dance.

As much as I believe that there is an injustice somewhere, let's not lose sight of the fact that there exists some sort of symbiotic relationship between the two countries. Afterall, we made their actors and actresses popular via nollywood and our media outlets, we give them oil etc. I really don't understand all the animosity. By the way, this is Chris Brown we are talking about here, not Barack Obama, the one man who almost killed a woman while under the influence of drugs. Who gives a crap what he thinks? Let's get our priorities straightened out.

The funny thing about the whole Azonto thing is that, WizKid sang and made money from azonto before ghana artists even started cashing in on their own dance. I pity ghanians tho'

Come to think of it, the moon walk was not invented by micheal jackson but was perfected by him thats why he is well known as the moon walker...so actually Chris brown didnt really make a mistake by saying its nigerian because nigeria perfected it and made it well known... cheesy

Azonto,100% ghanaian dance. No pun, give it to whom it is due. Moreover, they dance it far better than us. Ghana fit near us for galala dance? Abeg, make una no joke o. Wizzy no package anything for the dance. Go watch im video now.

Azonto (whether made popular by Nigerians or not) is an intellectual creative property of Ghana. Ghanaians deserve the credit not Nigerians. Let say things the way they are. CB is not in the know of the origin of azonto, or he is simply living in denial. For the fact that a Nigerian taught him how to dance azonto does not give credibility to Nigeria. CB goofs

I think Nigerians dance Azonto better than the Ghanians. Nigerians made the dance popular. Why didn't Chris Brown know of the dance until a Nigerian showed him? If Ghanians claim the dance came from them, why have they been shying away from it? Let them come up with a new dance and teach Chris Brown but as far as he (CB) and the world know, Azonto is ours. Up Naija !!!
