Where is Shallipopy and Odumodu Black ?

Erigga should have been in these kind of list , but his inability to adapt to more acceptable brands of music made him stuck and stagnant.

REMA

I think much can't be said about remmyboy, I mean he hasn't sold 02arena but the stats are there.. baby calm down stats are there. Being on billboards overseas and getting rushed by hollywood musicians just to taste the african sauce.. the stats are there....no grammie's yet, but the stats are there...Yesterday, my guys and I had an argument and I told them bluntly..In the history of Nigeria's entertainment industry, no one has received much international recognition like Rema. Let's forget about the inferiority complex and talk about facts. Is it psquare? Yea they did it... Is it dbanj yes he did it....is it the BIG 3 ?....yea they did it...but we talking about HUGE WAVE.... BLOWING.. WORLDWIDE RECOGNITION within a short period of time.

The most annoying thing is when you start to speak the fact you will be assumed to be a kid being called gen z and the rest, bro I am in my 30s what are you talking about?

I feel so much joy when I get on tiktok, instagram, facebook and see people from different racial ethnicity using that soundtrack I am like we are there!. AFRICA IS THERE.

Selena gomez called the label and said I want to be on this remix...not the other way round.. not paid features or agbeg please accept my feature!.... but hey the kid still has a long way to go and I believe he is going to achieve alot.
true. but don't say he blew within a short time,he started in 2019,I understand what u mean Sha the extra ordinary blowing,the 1billion stream American greatest are praying for

That Bnxn is criminally underrated, the guy's lyrics are always fire. All what he says makes sense, he doesn't mix his lyrics with jargon like Rema.
I'm not taking anything away from Rema though, he has his fans.

Underrated is an understatement blood!

Portable suprised me most. I thought by now his career would have been over just like Konga, Terry G and that other guy wey sing trash. But Portable is getting stranger, kudos to him and his madness

I am not into Rema.



I barely know Oma Lay or whatever they call him.




I like Asake.






But my favourite musician is Johnny Drille. Very talented but underappreciated.

Fela, 1

King Sunny Ade, 2

Tuface, 3

Dbanj, 4
P Square, 4

Davido, 6

Wizkid, 7

Burna boy, 8

And now, Rema, then asake is gradually making headway on d global scene.

All the artists I listed above gained imternational prominence in their prime.


However, I have few out of them that are globally recognized in my opinion.

FELA, WIZKID AND REMA.

FELA can sit on a table with the Michael Jackson's of this world, Bob Marley's of this world, Elvis Presley of this world, The Beatles of this world and many more.

WIZKID won a Grammy with Beyonce, Beyonce featured him. Essence ft tems had a global impact. And the Grammy wizkid won wasn't in any world album category that feature artists from Africa and other parts apart from USA and UK.


REMA, Calm down was a massive song surprisingly. Selena Gomez jumped into that song and the two had mad chemistry. Right now, it's still one of the biggest songs worldwide

So ladies and gentlemen you have it, feel free to click the like button on the musician you think surprised you the most.


LETS DO A POLL

They don't have staying power like the musicians of old. Give them five yrs, only few of them will still be in limelight

Wizkid success brought the idea of rema to Don baba J, He saw what wizzy did and he thought he could do better if he have a wizkid, so he went in search and God gave him rema which he started producing and promoting with the believe he will archive more than what wizzy achieved because he got all it takes to make the wizzy style go father than it is.i am sure some of the white folks still think rema songs is wizzy when they hear his song why some latter discovered it is a different person entirely. Kudos to Don baba J for that
