I heard someone say Lemar Obika is nt popular in the UK, the guy must be joking,the guy has made hit songs.'If there's any justice'.Tunde Bayiewu Light house Family. Seal Very Popular. Wale Killing it in the Rap scene right nw. Yes Taio Cruz has yoruba(Nigerian) father and a brazillian Mother. Sway is also Nigerian though only Popular in London. I Think seal shd have been Number 1 can anyone ever forget' Kiss of the Rose' Never. Even though all these guys are nt Nigerians for the fact they were born to Nigerian Parents doesn't make them Nigerians.

REALITY101:

Trash

Never asked for your opinion, smartass. You don't have to like the song, but calling it trash is unwarranted. There's absolutely nothing trashy about the song.

Nutase: Shaffer Chimere Smith (born October 18, 1982) better known by his stage name Ne-Yo, is a Grammy Award winning American R&B recording artist, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actor. Beginning his career as a songwriter, Ne-Yo penned the hit "Let Me Love You" for singer Mario.
Ne-Yo was born in Camden, Arkansas. His mother is of African American and Chinese descent, and his father is African American of Nigerian descent. Both of his parents were musicians. As a young child, he was raised by his mother after she separated from his father.In hopes of better opportunity, his mother relocated the family to Las Vegas, Nevada. While in the Las Vegas Academy, Smith adopted the stage name "GoGo" and joined an R&B group called Envy.[4] The group disbanded in 2000, and Smith continued to write songs for other artists before starting his solo career.

Tunde Baiyewu Vocalist is a British singer of Nigerian descent and is a member of the easy listening duo, Lighthouse Family. In 2004 he embarked on a solo career, releasing the album, Tunde and released his second album in 2013: Diamond in a Rock.
Tunde Baiyewu was born in London, but moved to Nigeria at the age of five after the death of his father. Ten years later he returned to Britain, attending the University of Northumbria in Newcastle upon Tyne, and obtained a degree in accounting. He subsequently met Paul Tucker who was also studying at Newcastle Northumbria University and was working at the same bar as Tunde – their partnership began and they formed Lighthouse Family.
