My problem with Star Quest id that when the band or group wins the competition nothing is heard from them thereafter.

MTN PROJECT FAME
Inyanya Mbuk-AWOL

WEST AFRICAN IDOL
Timi dakolo-Where you at?

Omawunmi(runner up)-Really working so hard to carve a niche for herself in the industry.won 2 awards recently at HHWA 2009.how far she will go is yet to be determined.

The problem with project fame and west african idol is the emphasis been laid on singing abilities.you just have to be a singer to get their attention.why is R&B the key?,what happened to rap,reggae,fuji,afrobeat etc.

Corporate lies used in scamming the public
(1)You will get a record deal in the US or UK.
-Sony BMG or whatever label they mention will never sign you,i doubt if they even know these guys or know anything about the show.
(2)You will become a star and sell millions of records
-The only place you will be a star is your village & your hood.you won't sell millions of records cos you might end up never releasing an album.even if you release an album you will end up going double brick.
(3)You will become rich
-Hell no,affluence is not guaranteed cos all the money you win will be spent on your recordings(which won't sell).your money will also be spent on going places you don't want to be(awards,press conferences,shows,etc)& doing things you don't want to do(buying expensive clothes & accessories you don't need).

At the end of these shows,the organisers will be smiling to the bank singing kelly hansome's hit."our magas don pay,shout halleluyah" while the participants will be right back to square one.for once these guys should try & keep it real and actually make someone a star.

I agree with 9ja Hip-Hop totally on this. Nice article.

People dont get it. The whole idea of these reality talent shows are not really to break new artistes but to make money. This is not just a Nigerian phenomenom but even the UK and America. It is only a very tiny percentage of winners who break through after the first year of winning these shows.
