9ICE is the most original of the local artistes in Nigeria.
He is more of a poet and I love the fact that he using music to promote the Yoruba language, unlike all the fake hip-hop copycats and clowns in Nigeria.

Oh my God, tank you!
abi na THANK YOU!


I agree i came into this thread late, and that my post might be considered late. But I think there are a few reasons why i must comment.

1. The person (9ice) in question is a nigerian and to be sincere, he is my favorite nigerian music artiste. This should not
mean that everything i say here is biased, as i promise to use[b] constructive [/b] critism (is it criticism?).

2. What we are talking about here is about Nigerian and African music at large.

3. I have read throught the thread, I would like to ask some people the questions i have for them, and to reply some
as well.

please bear with me as i no sabi the english language well. I beg you to bear with my unneccesary delays and get
the main points of my arguments, as you follow through my post.

i also invite those who have posted on this thread to please follow my posts.

I think the people that don't understand Yoruba are the ones hating on 9ice and Asa
_{you see the reaction when p-squared didnt win an award at the hip hop awards?
thats says alot}

my opinion!!!

wow! happy for you , 9ice one there!

@Dis Guy

You might be correct. Although i think tribe shouldn't be an issue here, but unfortunately some people seem to be tribalistic.

I know of a guy who criticizes 9ice's gongo aso, just because he does'nt understand what the word mean. What the guy does'nt know is that the western musics he fantasizes and sing so much is not his, because the westerners do music that really relates to their own world. The whites buy their own song because they understand that even if they can meet up with the lyrics, the music relates to their society. They enjoy and promote their own music.

Instead of criticizing our own Nigerian artiste just because we are affected by language barriers, we should learn to rather find out about what we don't understand about them and then learn to promote them. For God's sake, d'banj, Asa, 9ice and 2face are all our own. Let's get this right. Though its not bad listening to western music and acknowledging their successes, western music (nelly furtedo, justin timberlake and so on) can never be our own.


this is just to clear the air for those who fall into the category Dis Guy metioned about.

Any body who has been saying 'this person did this in his own language, that is why i dont appreciate him, or that his why his fellow language people loves him', should remember say na turn by turn.

One day you might get inspiration to do a wonderful thing whith your own language or in your own language. And then imagine what it would be like when somebody refers to your work as rubbish or not well done because you did it with your own mother tongue which is nigerian.

Understand me, it might not be in music. But someday it could be your own turn to achieve something like others such as 9ice have achieved in his life time.

omo na turn by turn,
beg baba God make it reach ur turn.

@ People like tonye-t, who have been talking about criteria.


I want to believe that the people who gave 9ice those honors and awards, are the same people who had at one time or the other given big time stars and celebrities respective honors for their respective achievements.

The organizers of the MOBO awards do not have their office at our backyards of houses here in Nigeria. They are 'INTERNATIONAL'. Neither did they start organizing awards of this kind yesterday. At least to the best of my knowledge, they have been there for some reasonable time now. Before you speak or criticize, they know that people will be there to criticize. So please be aware that they would have planned their nomination and award strategy well, so that no one spoils their long time reputation. Another thing, 9ice did not bribe the organizers of MOBO awards. He will look for a better place to invest any such money than to bribe an organization as international and big as that.

Let me come to Nelson Mandela. Mandela and im boys no be small boys. If the organizers of the Mandela 90th birthday concert performance allowed Celtel to parade 9ice as the representing artiste from Nigeria, then what are you talking about. I mean, the organizers made sure that planned every bit of the concert to become a success.

Remember, the people we are talking about here are not to be passed for nonprofessionals.
