Over the years 2face fans have held up d artiste as the undisputed champion in music since his song african queen hit the nigerian music industry, it did so well that it was used as a soundtrack in a foreign movie. The song also brought him out in the international market. Dbanj on the other hand released oliver twist which hit the airwaves a couple of years ago, the song was so popular in europe that it hit the uk top 10 charts, somthing that no indigenous nigerian artiste has ever achieved, he was also signed by kanye wests GOOD music of which the song was released under the label. The question now is that which song is more recognised in the western world, because I believe oliver twist more recognised in the western world, especially in Europe. So can y'all make your arguments on the song that is more recognised in the western world. Please don't add sentiments or argue as a fan but as someone that trully understands music, because its not a dbanj vs 2face topic but an african queen vs oliver twist in the western world topic |

Undeniably, Oliver Twist beats African Queen hands down because of the difference in class and quality. Oliver Twist was SHOT ABROAD by an already POPULAR Nigerian Artiste, aided by an EUROPE-BASED outfit, headed by KANYE WEST.. Plus, the media strength now is much stronger than before. 15 Likes |

African Queen is good too and very popular but just dat Oliver Twist is more International.. Which Europe? So cos a few peeps know the song in the UK, you have generalized it to Europe? Do you live in any EU country? Pls, no one knows D'banj and his "Twisted Oliver". Tuface's african queen can not be compared to any other naija song any day at least from popularity side of view. 5 Likes |

on a ground level African Queen is very popular among afrricans but Oliva twist was more accepted internationally I was with friend one day and I said the guy is from my country but they say no way how can a nigerian sing such music, but thank God wiki was there to prove them wrong so I will give it to Oliver twist 2 Likes |
