Lol. In Naija, "Beats" seems to have more prominence than "Lyrics".

Bullocks!

Music is simply defined as vocal or instrumental sounds or both, combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony or emotion.In simple terms, anything that sounds good to the ear.
Music is not just about lyrics but also sound and it is universal. If music were about lyrics alone, how would a world of different languages connect? Reason why Davido, Wizkid and co have fans from around the globe-including French speaking countries, portugese speaking countries. They would shut down any show in any of these countries where they have fans.
Some years back, Gangnam Style by the south Korean Pop star Psy, took the world by storm. Till date, it is one of the most watched songs on youtube. MAny people from around the world did not understand jack of what he was saying, but vibed to the beat-which is what music is all about.










































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































you're wrong man. A good song is not all about the sound, its also about its content /message.

since music is all about sound as you said, tell me why no nigerian musician has risen to the height of winning at least one grammy award....or do you think to win such an award involves only the best of sounds, they check out your lyrics and the ryhmes, and the rythme of your songs, they don't just give such a prestigious award to one clown who wakes up one morning, goes into the studio, and starts screaming down the roof....if music is only based on sound and beat as you say, then the likes of jayz, beyonce and rihanna won't see our musicians back.

Blame the listening audience.

If you ignore trash, they will stop producing such.

You keep hailing them at shows and parties, and you are complaining.

That shows you its not a Nigerian thing but an African thing. Besides music is not all about passing messages always, it depends on the mood of whoever is behind the microphone.


Dude if fela was still alive do you think all this noise makers will exist...

She's so funny! grin grin grin grin grin

A hit song is what counts not whether it makes any meaning.

Many Americans and British songs have no meaning as well. Look at "Don't look back in Anger". Has no meaning to me yet it was Number 1 for weeks in the U.K

Even when they have meaning, the meaning is unimportant.

Lmao @ "the meaning is unimportant", not a nice thing to say though.

There is a reason why Michael Jackson songs are still rated very high by music critics,
even kids unborn will still love his music.
Same can't be said of gangnam style which has fade away.

why do black people base their worth on approval by white people?

The sooner yoi emancipate yourself from mental slavery, the better for you. They win AFRIMMA and MOBO awards, even Soul Train and BET....A Grammy is only meaningful to a few misled souls. Even the great Fela did not win a Grammy, is it because he was not good enough?
