D'banj Koko Concert Was A Flop by Meomar(m): 11:42am On Dec 28, 2012
"Dbanj’s Koko Concert Was A Complete Mess" -
Disappointed fans vent anger on Twitter Dbanj disappointed his fans at the concert. Micro-blogging site, Twitter, was agog with
criticism of the end of the year concert by
popular Afropop musician, Dbanj, tagged Koko
Concert held at the Eko Atlantic Beach, Lagos . Many of Dbanj’s frustrated fans who took to
twitter to vent their anger described the concert
as lacklustre and ill-managed. In the past weeks, the concert has enjoyed a lot
of hype in the media and was one of the most
expensive musical concerts in the country.
Some fans paid as much as N1 million to attend
the concert which also has Hollywood actor
Idris Elba; America rappers, Pusha T and Big Sean; as well as Nigerian-born British rapper
Tinnie Tempah; on parade. Fans were particularly disappointed by Dbanj’s
performance. Many of them who went to the
concert hoping to hear him perform some of
his popular tunes were heartbroken as the
musician chose to perform his most recent
tunes that many have problems relating to. “Dbanj does not have any song to sing..
Terrible. Let tomorrow come first,” said a fan
tweeting from the handle @RicDizZle. “Sing Suddenly or Mogbonofelifeli if you know
say e sure for you!” @RicDizZle continued
referring to some the musician’s popular tunes. Dbanj, who is used to a mimed performance,
had problems adjusting to performing to a live
band, some attendees said. “I think Dbanj is the worst performer of the
night #kokoconcert. Easier to perform with a
CD. Live performance no be beans [not easy],”
said a fan tweeting from the handle @
ebraheemshehu “I have a lot of respect for #Nigerian artistes
who perform with a live band but i don’t think
#Dbanj killed it today. #kokoconcert,” said
Fidelis Mbah, a reporter with the BBC. “That’s not a live band, just a bunch of
confused electricians,” said another fan
tweeting from the handle @TheBlackHermit. Insulted fans His woeful performance aside, many of fans,
who stayed awake all night to see him perform
at the concert and those watching the live
stream of the event on NdaniTV, said Dbanj’s
worst blunder of the night was when he said:
“The people wey pay me money na dis side dem dey” (those that paid me are on this side)
while apologising to those at the VVIP section
of the concert for below-par arrangement
made for them. At a point he even asked those
at the popular and VIP sections to apologise to
those at the VVIP for the inconvenience they suffered. Fans at the popular section and VIP paid 5,000
and 20,000 respectively. Many of his fans who
felt insulted reacted sharply: “Disgusting that he only keeps apologising to
VVIP. The 5K ticket holders are the real fans
and the ones promoting his music . Shame,”
said a fan tweeting from @Rebl_jade. “Dbanj needs to stop acting the fool with this
VVIP thing. So rude!” said @EniolaHundeyin “And he had the nerve to ask the 5k & 20k
people to aplogise to the VVIPs. I say it, the
concert was an allegory for Nigeria as a whole,”
said Tola Sarumi tweeting from @AfroVII. “Only in naija (Nigeria) you pay for something
and STILL get insulted. Customer appreciation?
Absolute zero,” said a fan tweeting from @
kennagq A complete mess From tiresome trek along the sandy beach,
inadequate parking space, to Dbanj’s fake
American accent, the general perception was
that the overpriced concert was a failure. “The worst day of my life! Dec 29th, Koko
concert. Despite d negativity, I managed to hold
my head up nd stay positive! Home now..#
NeverAgain” said eccentric Channel-O
presenter, Derenle Edun. “Call me a hater but Dbanj is too big of an artist
to be putting out mediocre shows like that!! #
kokoconcert,” said @natashamutale “This guy better not be planning to drop any
album soon. People will refuse to even bootleg
it,” said Tome Buluku tweeting from the handle
@IamTome. “There’s def no koko concert next year sha.
Not with this crap,” said Yemi O tweeting with
the handle @mimio193 “D’Banj speaks like Igbo man from Iweka Road
now,” said Onyeka Nwelue. “@iamdbanj sold more VIP & VVIP tickets than
d no of seats available..we had to hustle for
seats..pathetic,” said Tokunbo Otitoju tweeting
from the handle@fimiletoks “In Koko Concert, Money can’t buy class. LOL.
1M for table no mean you no go do endurance
trek to and fro,” said @Shimoshi1."Dbanj’s Koko Concert Was A Complete Mess" -
