tuffgongjo: affirmative

name other international award as greater thsn bet apart from grammy nd mtv

hatux: Yes! The guy is just lucky!

thats life you always need an element of luck to be the best

Anacksunamun: now you bring recognition as your excuse. Where was recognition when you were holding briefs for that wacko, Ice Prince? Recognition or not, M.I or Mode9 have not win BET awards but you will get slapped in a pub if you compared them with that wacko. True story.

of course you cant compare mode9 mi even jesse jags to ice prince they are way better but comparing phyno and olamide to iceprince naaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thats way too far dose guys are not close to him its just that its their time to reign now in nigeria

He that is blessed is blessed and no man can cause pple...
And there is sometin there call grace... No be who get the best result frm school dey get the best job.

As for me after Mode-9; Jesse-Jagz comes 1st!! U can add vector and terry tha rapman 2 it!
What others tend to do are commercial music, nt really hard-core rap #Now Playin-Supply and Demand by Jesse_Jagz "We killin 'em all 4eva!!"

ICE PRINCE ZAMANI IS NOT OVER RATED...............FIRE OF ZAMANI (FOZ)

wu z nat overatted in Nigeria once u av money nd yo a celeb!

@Topic
In my opinion...Ice Prince is not excellent but very okay in my book, to me he's far better to the likes of M.I. whose lyrics are mostly piles of alliteration, Ice Prince flows more better that M.I. who I don't know why people rave over. I can't believe why some responders are saying French Montana is whack, if FM is really whack I wonder what y'all say about 2Chainz? To say the truth, the best M.C. so far in Nigeria is Ice Prince...why's because he balances good yankee-type lyrics with nice beats whereas the likes of Vector, Terry The Rapman and Phyno

Audu Maikori ,the owner of Choc city has always been a smart business man who knows how to buy his way around the game, for instance, how do you explain a situation where all choc boys crew (brymo included) getting verified on twitter before the likes of wizkid, tuface , don jazzy and even d'banj i guess ? , Iceprince bagging a BET award therefore sudn't be a surprise , this is beyond music, IT'S BUSINESS

How is Ice Prince overrated His music is dope, he features or is featured by alot of artists; local and international!!! He bags awards n he is an ambassador for both local and international brands!!! I am sure the hype about him is just right!!!!
My honest opinion anyway

hatux:

abi i lie?

heatmeup: abi i lie?

No lie,Sis...

You have got to appease the fans if you wanna put food on the table. Yes! Very true there r badaz rappers out there berra than ice prince buh truth be told ice knows how to fine tune his lyrical rhymes and sweet talk almost berra than anyone.. he knows wen to switch topic/tempo when running on bars berra than his contemporary. He is stuck on a wide range of subject matter to share an opinion and keeps it on d surface(not many fans would wanna decipher brain tasking punches because no be we invent rap)and then someone talked about the element of luck which is true. I am almost certain his glaring weakness is in making a hit hook buh he is good talking to the beat @ the level of most nigerians and has this different signature tune embedded in rap that sells him outside home soil(ask fella why they loved him abroad).that should get him the accolade for now.

N/B some folks are born lucky if u doubt that, ask Mikel Obi.

hatux: Lol .. Guy, you are one of those people who don't know good music! Talking bout 'Confam, Three wise men,tomorrow' not even talking about 'repete' the song of all time. Nigg^ go chill!

brod chill truly if you call confam a good music, then I would ssy you're the one who doesn't know jack about music. I've not heard that repete. I'll Check it out n see.

Look no rapper wack ice prince is ok. But see nigerians don't care about lyrics...just do a song let people groove...ok so una no want make ice prince drive range rover or buy house....? Well sub to my bbm chanel C00309646 ok

henryobinna: brod chill truly if you call confam a good music, then I would ssy you're the one who doesn't know jack about music. I've not heard that repete. I'll Check it out n see.

PHYNO IS NOT THAT A GOOD RAPPER COMPARE TO ICE PRINCE, VECTOR, MI, OLAMIDE.

IF NOT FOR OLAMIDE THAT DID JUSTICE TO HIS SINGLE(GHOST MODE ) ,WHO WOULD HAVE KNOWN PHYNO.

EACH TIME, HE USES ENGLISH TO RAP HIS PUNCHLINE, RHYMES, LYRICS NOT THAT GOOD, STRONG

How many times have you heard him rap fully with English? (Mention the song). Phyno is the best indigenous rapper now, you need to understand Igbo to know what I'm talking about. NOTE: I understand Yoruba so I understand what Olamide is rapping about. Here is my Top 10 Naija best Rappers dead and alive.
1.Mode9.
2. Dagrin.
3. Jesse Jagz.
4. M I.
5. Phyno.
6. Phenom.
7. Yung6ix.
8. Olamide.
9.Pherosuaz ( didn't get the spelling right).
10. Black Magic.

If Iceprince is not on your top ten, you are only a hater. C'mon bro

The owner (maybe former owner) of DEF JAM, LA REID made a statement and i quote "i don't care aw many music video you av appeared in, if u cant give me a HIT we are not talking".
We all know wat "a hit" is all about i biliv. Now coming to ice prince, dat dude is a raPper weda u like it or not nd Weda hes wack or not is based on personal opinions. Now wat happend to ice prince is dat he made hit songs as at d time other artists like MI is loosing relevance. D industry was at dat time open for a new hit song nd he (ice) made it nd blow!
He carried on until there ws noting left in his rhym page. He made HIT songs.
Now come to winning of awards nd BET dat ws mentioned by d OP...award is giving to artist dat are in the limelight at dat point in time nd also depending on wat s d time frame (year) of d award coverage. Eg june 2013-june 2014.
Ice prince as at then ws d major artist dats in d limelight nd award organizers dnt need rocket science to know where it should go...bé it any country. I stand to bé corrected.
Now To some it up, ice prince ws at the right spot at the right time nd he got the glories. D other artist listed are not better than him until dey stock up throphies both local nd international.
Wat is affecting him right now is not dat he is WACK, its just d law of diminishing return...to those who understand economics.
Roger out!

RoyalRoy: You are damn right.

I had always thought I was the only one who think he is wacked and just a one-style rapper. Not versatile at all.

He still managed to have some cool rap style before he released his hit song Aboki My Guy. And after then he remained in one spot doing the same rap to all his songs afterwards making you get tired and bored of his style.

With the list you put above as rappers who tilt the scales better than Ice... I think only Vector and Terry are worth mentioning as the other guys are indigenous with their rap and so we can't compare them with Ice in that aspect.

Totally correct! I've also stopped listening to his raps after Aboki

And I like your bible type fonts style

josh4eva00:

Just mention 1 person that he's better than on my list.. I'm not hating man, for he's an average rapper and its so sickening hearing him repeat same aboki line in all his current songs.

ok

talking about rappers with lyrics, I dig blackmagic and the dudes from show dem camp

rozayx5: since oleku, am yet to feel any of his songs, its a miracle he is still in the news, maybe good marketing i believe

wat about juju?

planetuzor: I have not come as one who really knows what rap is
all about or someone who is completely a novice,
but in my opinion I think the subject matter in
person of Ice-Prince the Aboki himself is overrated

I kept wandering what's this guy rapping that's
making him bag awards even when his got no hit
song. He's just like a one way rapper,one particular
rap tone and style (with due respect to him)...
Sincerely am of limited knowledge here of this Guy
and how come he gets most of the BET awards and
always nominated in rap category even when his
music impact to the average nigeria that just like
good music is just too minimal...

Even at this time when we have some venom
spitting rap artist like this ones listed below in no
particular order

Vector d Viper
Terry d rap man
Phenom
Olamide
Phyno
Ill-bliss
Reminisce....

Please guys educate me on this issue. I really want
to know if his worth the awards and nominations or
just overrated in your own opinion...

Ice prince is the most creative out of all.. Today he can sing a song of his party life e.g superstar and tomorrow a tribute song e.g Whiskey e.t.c unlike some proud ones claiming to be badoo! Everitym.. Bring ur-self up and americans go bring u down.. Up BET Up Ice-prince!
