You forgot "she tell me say" cheesy
Wizkid doesn't have any good lyrics these days at all.

I get girl wey wan die for me...she wan burst her kolo for me.

Ahhh Wizkid...I know you're one of the hottest ladies man...truth be told...even as a fellow girl, once you have doing even girls will be struggling to be in your life....girls oo...not to talk of guys.
So Wizkid should understand that we k ow he has countless girls to flex with.
He should give us that Ojuelegba vibes...that I love my baby signal, when I want to enjoy wizkid I just play essence and ballin d'or.... especially essence.....that's when I feel him.

Burna Boy is not in top 5 talent wise.

His lyrical prowess and the ability to sing live without missing any note or going off key is not a talent? Just dey play you hear.

Are u kidding me Burna is talented than wiz no b ment b dat no musician in Nigeria right now is talented than wiz ,wiz has touch all genre in music down to pop, rnb,reggae, fusion,afrobeats and more and make hit with them a

Speaking of touching every genre, you've not made sense because Burna Boy has touched all of the aforementioned.
You funny!

Now compare them on the following:
Stage performance
Voice control
Performance with live band
Penmanship
Versatility
Acapella...

Please don't ever compare Wizkid to Burna Boy on these indices because Burna Boy is miles ahead of Wizkid on these.
Go and watch their rehearsals, stage performances, both live and whatnot.

See this guy! grin
Have you ever watched Burna sing without instrumentals and any studio effect?
And have you seen that of Wizkid too?

Who do you think is the best Nigerian musical artist talentwise?

I am not talking of commercial success the likes of Davido,Rema and Burnaboy have enjoyed. I am talking about raw and natural musical talent that hardly misses with the tracks they release.

My top 5 in order of talent and who create consistently good songs:

1) Fireboy DML
2) Wizkid
3) Reekado Banks
4) Idabanton
5)Omah Lay
it's easy to detect indomie generation

He did know how to play instruments. It was not his things because the roles were not his but his brothers. But if you ask him to play for you, he'd do that without any problem.

The keyword here is 'proficiently'...you have your sources and I also have mine ergos [url]https://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/the-incredible-way-michael-jackson-wrote-music-16799#:~:text=Contrary%20to%20received%20wisdom%2C%20he,other%20performer%20by%20his%20father[/url].

Jackson couldn’t read or write music at all. Contrary to received wisdom, he could play instruments a bit – he’s credited as playing keyboard, synthesizer, guitar, drums and percussion on ‘HIStory’ – but none proficiently. He didn’t have any formal composition training, though one could say he was trained harder than any other performer by his father.

Bro do you even listen to burna songs, do you even pay attention to lyrics of a song,or do you just flow with it because it's a good beat and it's trending. Burna is number one my guy,Him getting that Grammy wasn't a fluke. He earned it.

If anyone says "knowledge of the instruments" isn't important, such person doesn't know about good songsters and songstresses or musicians because there isn't any great musician in history who doesn't know how to play (at least) one or two instruments.
U just told one of the biggest lies here.



Forget what Wikipedia may tell you about Whitney Houston or mJ, they never played instruments.

Yet they were highly talented artists.

Do you have your evidence?

Ogaaaa I grew up as a full time groover in the 80's.
If MJ or Whitney were instrumentalists, they wd have flunted it.
I had hundreds of cassettes on mj, including making of his music videos&songs.
Quincy Jones was the life instrumentalist of most of his 80's songs.

Then teddy-riley took over from DANGEROUS-ALBUM in the year 1990.


Mind you I also at some point stayed opposint EMI studios in wesminiter Abbey. Where witney houton produced lots of her songs.

That's enough for me to know what they could do and couldnt do.

Stevie wonder, Prince, Quincy Jones, Ray Charles were the Top leading Artists of the 70's and 80:s who also were good instruments.

However this didn't make them more talented than MICHAEL JACKSON or MADONNA when it came to making music in the 80's.

Know all these now I tell you and have peaxe with history.

What we see mostly in nowadays music is whack, very sorry to say this, someone said it's not compulsory for you to be an instrumentalist but either you like it or not you must be able to play either directly or indirectly, what I mean by indirectly is your ability to control your instrumentalist while playing any of it to your song, in case you don't know, the no. 1 producer to any music should be the musician himself/herself followed by other producers who will add their ideas to it, the last generation who will understand this are those born in the late eightys. Have you seen BABA FELA video on stage, he controls and dictates to his band, same with Bob Marley, his producer once said Bob was always on top of it while producing, he correct him (the producer) while the the studio session is going on, same with Adewale Ayuba, you don't just go in and beat the drum cuz it matches what he sings likewise King Sunny Ade. All these sets of people were good at it cuz they had a broad knowledge about music instruments.

Nowadays, the producers are the real musicians cuz they are in total control of everything, including the voice of the musician.

As for those who compare Burnaboy with Wizkid, the truth remains that Burnaboy is better than Wizkid. Burnaboy is more artistic than Wizkid, the day I heard Burnaboy live performance was the day I gave it up for him as the ODOGU of music.

Bros and Sis, music goes beyond what we an average human hears from music, does anyone even know that every instruments also talks just like the musicians do in music and in most cases our musicians do not follow, imagine a musician using an anger beat for a dance hall music, what the poster should have written is which musician do you love most cuz that's what I can conclude with the list of musicians he chose as most talented.

Most times I choose Fuji, juju and other local musician as professionals over most of our hip hop musicians cuz they are always in total control of the music, band, instruments when the music is on.

I'm sure some might think drew sentiment into choosing burnaboy but I'm not, for those who care to know I only love his music, his personality actually disgust me but when I see a person doing well in his field regardless of his character I'll say it. I once loved Wizkid music cuz he was once one of the best, but to me I think he couldn't keep up, As for Davido, I think he wasn't doing well as a professional at the beginning but I was happy to see him stepping up his game, using what he has to get what he wants, he is getting there.

This is just my own opinion based on my observation.

Peace be unto everyone.
