What pains me the most is the corruption of Afrobeats by these wannabe musicians. Only Wizkid and Burna boy come close. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Fadedvoiced:There are Nigerian singers and even rappers that have meaningful songs but you guys just won't listen to them. They are even too many to name. Rapper ,Boogey once asked on Facebook "If the music is wack,how did it blow up?''- it blew up because y'all made it blow up. |

The same day when songs about money, sex, drugs, guns stop reigning in the US. But going further, birds tweet about sex; frogs croak about sex; roosters crow about sex. It's nature, so please calm down Here's a short selection from 70's, 80's, 90's spanning Rock, Pop, Grunge, Soul: "Rock with you" - MJJ "Ring my Bell" - Anita word "Pour Some Sugar on Me" - Def Leopard "Do me" - BBD "Bump N' Grind" - R. Kelly "Heart-Shaped Box" - Nirvana "Love come Down" - Evelyn Champagne King "Let's Get it On" - Marvin Gaye "Use Me" - Bill Withers "Brown Sugar" - The Rolling Stones "The Lemon Song" - Led Zeppelin "Light My Fire" - The Doors "You Shook Me All Night Long" - AC/DC "I'm Your Baby Tonight" - Whitney Houston "Secret Garden" - Quincy Jones and for some from 50's: "60 Minute Man" - The Dominoes "Mother Fuyer" - Dirty Red "Let Me Bang Your Box" - The Toppers "I Like My Baby's Pudding" - Wynonie Harris And the list goes on and on and on. 1 Like |

oga, there are different genre of music like one poster said... it is just like going to canteen that sells only beans to shout you want rice, when you can go to another canteen. pop is big just like trap is big in america, you migos, lil pump mumblinh away, I either follow the trend or stick to the kendrick and the j cole. I can say sure some of the song lack content but it apeals to people. do your song with content and market and sell.. ma brother naija hard...... |

Fadedvoiced: Brov, The entertainment industry is about popular demand, basically if 80% of the people want something, you give it to them- otherwise, you won't sell and you won't be relevant. So if your motive as an artiste is to make profit, put food on the table, appeal to a huge fan base and remain relevant in the industry.... Then you must go by popular demand. But if your aim is to preach the gospel, or inspire sense as an artiste then you know the drill. |

The truth is if they don't sing about love or sex, they won't make more money, because they will think that's what Nigerians want. |

People prefer the craze and the dance rather than really good music. We have many songs that make sense -- Check out Cohbams "one hit", John Ogar's " Uncle Suru", most of Dare's, Modenine, and many conscious music artists songs.... The average youth is not interested in these so these brilliant artists don't get the boom expected. Even from little kids... They will try to memorize word for word, Olamide's "WO" than even a "Pray for me" by Art Alade. It's a pity. Till we rediscover our values, Op, this trend will continue. |
