icekidgodfrey: You talked about real hiphop. Yes! So how many peeps will buy if one does real hiphop you talked about without involving trashy words? The shallow minds of most listeners won't allow them to buy it. Someone should please, tell me what Erriga is singing? |

Rapmoney: I used 'hip hop' because I didn't want to use 'music'. Music consists of both native/cultural, gospel, etc. There are lots of naija cultural songs I can kill for; they cut across many Nigerian languages. When it comes to gospel, there are songs and artistes I admire. I can play the likes of Frank Edwards, Chris Morgan, Boniface Adefu, Sinach, etc all day Nonsense! I guess you are not a fan of foreign hip hop. Have you bothered to listen to Lil Wayne's "lollipop" feat Kanye West? "lollipop lollipop, brea.st is like dat of Dolly Parton". What's wrong with Nigerians and their sanctimonious bullshyt? Those songs have their targeted audience. You are free to choose another track that suits your fancy. Don't come online to bias people thought with your opinion. We aint buying it. 1 Like |

If truth be told, naija songs have succeeded in commercializing relationship and romance to a great extent. How can you be talking continually about spending your all and all on women? What do you expect them to do when they hear such? |

Is it me or having a 'good voice' is no longer a requirment to being a musician, coz it seems anybody can just wake up one morning and decide they wana be musicians, thanks to auto tune. Most of the songs lack Lyrical depth, vocal prowress and orignality, moreso we need to have music genres coz every body sounds the same. Harsh but realistic critique of music industry. 2 Likes |

horlabiyi: I'm sorry to tell you this op. Most of those foreign artiste you are seeing as music lords sing trash too. Just listen to the likes of Lil Wayne,Rick Ross,2chainz etc all they talk about is Womanliness,weed,booty and clubbing. Though there are some artiste that always kill the lyrics like Bruno Mars and co. Respect to the likes of Jesse Jags,Vector,Olamide,Reminisce,9ice and their mama Asa.olamide and reminisce are more vulgar |
