5 Nigerian Artistes Who Should Quit And Get Day Jobs by akraym(m): 12:18pm On Aug 28, 2012
If others won’t say it, we will. We are tired of wack artistes being embraced as the real deal. Some acts who parade themselves as the next best thing are really people with no talent who are hell bent on being famous and blocking the way for talented people in an already over-saturated industry.

These artistes can have meaningful day jobs. Not everyone can be a singer, rapper or entertainer. These guys we have listed below need to do us a favour and drop the mic and leave music to the folks who have talent.


1) Flowssickk:
Don’t let the pretty boy looks fool you; Flowssickk knows much about music like our first lady knows about the English language. His debut single “Lowkey” was based off a Wizkid line and didn’t pop until the Clarence Peters video came out. His follow-up single “Ringtone” is languishing in nowhere-ville. Flowssickk doesn’t really offer much musically. When his wack bars couldn’t cut it he switched to pop music. With lines such as “she dey use MTN but I give her the Glo” Flowssickk should quit the music scene go back to school and come out with a degree, hopefully.



2) Tunde Ednut:
When this dude came on the scene, he “claimed” to be a comedian who had won several awards in the UK. The funny thing is that Mr. Tunde hasn’t pursued his stand-up comedy trade in Nigeria which has a more lucrative industry. The young man has decided to pursue a career in music. Well the good news is that his songs will crack your ribs. They are funny (and wack) as hell! Clearly we can all see Tunde Ednut is a struggle artiste but yet he remains hell bent on making Nigerians suffer. Don’t be fooled by “Catching Cold” remix, Tunde Ednut cannot crack a joke and crack the music charts. My guy you need a day job, we heard Dangote is hiring with good pay too.


3) Sina Rambo:
OMG! Sina Rambo is the epitome of wackness in rap music. Kids in kindergarten classes have better rhymes. His delivery is poor and wordplay is non-existent. This guy shouldn’t be labeled as a rapper. His level of wackness is yet to be qualified. The only reason why this guy has a record deal is because he is related to the minimally talented Davido. I fear for the worst in that family. Sina go back to school, get a degree and run of the companies in your rich family’s portfolio.



4) B-Red:
It’s hard to believe that two brothers can be on the same level of wackness. It happens every 9,000 years. B-Red and Sina Rambo are the one in every 9,000 years. No need to write much on B-Red. The same applies to him to. He is as wack as his brother.


5) Dencia:
We ain’t even going to front, Dencia is eye candy. The only problem is that her songs make you want to cut your ears. No female artiste blatantly uses sex appeal to further her career like Dencia. There is nothing wrong in this if her songs are good. They are not! Career advice Dencia, the video vixen industry is popping in Nigeria, we feel your talents are required there. Singing is not in your foreseeable future or in any future for that matter. Please leave the mic alone

Well bro UNFORTUNATELY they are ALOT of them out there with no talent but strong financial muscle to push their music.

"I have a dream" an era will come when mediocrity will not be permitted, it is this same mediocre

I'm glad you said Tunde Ednut. I can't stand that guy at all. I will admit, "Catching Cold", the original, was funny and catchy. My problem with him is that he takes himself too seriously. I still see him as a comedian as that's what I heard he's known for; funnily enough, I haven't heard or seen any of his jokes. He came out with a wack Christmas tune and then ruined his first hit with a rubbish remix. E don tey wen I unff the guy for twirra.

Davido is another. Till this day, I have never liked "Dami Duro" or anything else he's made. A lot of "noise" is rockin Lagos.

That guy was the definition of fluke.. That his jam 'Ma babe' pronounced 'Man bay bay', was a fluke that would have slipped under the radar until he decided to make a video and put out an album.. Jesus.. His video snapped people out of the foolish trance that Ma babe had put them in..

Anyways, the nigga is no more

Dem plenty 4 Naija. Both in music & movie. Na wack wack we dey see almost all the time.
Meanwhile, That name Sina Rambo fit be bad name. Na the name of a notorious armed robber in South/West Nigeria in the early '90s. Why man pikin go carry such a name dey take sing. FMJ!
But I like dat song Lowkey by Flowssick. Wether he copied Wizkid's lyrics or not.

@OP I Believe Dencia Is Hot (Having Listened To Some Of Her Other Songs). She Has A Good Voice. She Only Needs Good Songwriters To Bring Out The Best In Her.
Her Video Performance Is Bangin' Hot. No Nigerian Female Artiste Has The Visual Entertainment Prowess Of Dencia Not Even Tiwa Savage (She's Better In Vocals/Songwriting But Still Camera Shy A Bit). Dencia Is Partly Cameroonian And Based In The U.S. Hence Her Accent Might Be Found Lacking But Her Vocal And Body Asset Is Just Very Okay! cheesy
Also, Nigerian Artistes Should Employ More Usage Of Ghostwriters/Songwriters In Music. Clearly Not All Singers Are Good Songwriters. This Is The Practice In The World Over.
On A Side Note, I Believe If Artistes Like Dencia, Yemi Alade and Rhetta Are Given Good Songs And Quality Video Packaging, They Will Surely Perform Given The Obvious Sex Appeal That Will Blow The Minds Of Many Fans.
Yes, Sex Sells Even In The Nigerian Music Industry.
We Only Need A Better Packaging. #SAMO cool
