You and your likes have repeated this over and over...get new lines.

When the artistes u mentioned cum wizkid, wande coal, olamide, davido spend more than a decade and they still wax stronger than they are now, then u can talk.

U think its easy?

Dominating the industry for a decade and beyond is not an easy feat. Only few artistes in nigeria achieve that.

That's why u are a fool for comparing dbanj with new generation artistes. Some of them have not even spend three years.

we should compare him to old artistes? Like P-square that started a year before him and have waxed stronger? The 'Don't Tell Me Nonsense' has garnered just over 200 thousand views on youtube since it's release, meanwhile 'Personally' that came out same day has over 5 million views, even Wande Coal's 'The Kick' that was released weeks after has over 400 thousand views. D'banj na wash abeg, a review can NEVER translate to anything substantial, wack music is WACK music. Shikena!

Dband has always been a huge flop. There is no song of his that makes any sense. He is actually forcing himself to be a singer of which he is not one. He should try another line of trade because he is gradually going broke due his musical incoherency.


U are the greatest fool on planet earth.

Dbanj is getting broke? That must be a joke from u.

I won't argue with u on that cos am definitely sure u are not in your right senses when u typed those shits.

Dbanj going broke......smh for u

Dband is a boy when it comes to music industry in Nigeria. He has been dominating space and not the music industry. Dband is rated alongside junior singers as flavor, davido, 9ice, wande coal.

There is one world class singer in Nigeria and Africa and that is only Psquare. Psquare is the only reason Africa and the world is talking about Nigeria musically.

Was it not the same crap dbad can to UK to show last time that the hall was empty? Face the fact dband is a flop. There is no way u can place him side by side with the giant Psquare.

Any Psquare show in UK is alwys packed out.

Dband is a huge joke and a wack when u compare him to Psquare. Psquare is the father of modern African music.

Dband can strugle for position with flavor, wande coal, 9ice, davido etc.

Posted on Saturday, September 14th, 2013 at 2:21 PM
By Damilare Aiki



D’banj a.k.a Bangalee is making waves.

The Nigerian pop star’s latest album D’King’s Men was reviewed on The New York Times yesterday Friday 13th September 2013.

Read the Review;

D’Banj is one of the great African pop stars of the past decade, a charming singer but, more important, a savvy showman. For years, this Nigerian singer was at the center of the Mo’ Hits Records stable, but now he’s struck out on his own with a new label and the compilation “D’Banj Presents DKM (D’ King’s Men)” (DB/G.O.O.D./Sony).

It’s an alluring contemporary pop album with an emphasis on king-size dance music, like the militarily efficient “Don’t Tell Me Nonsense” and the flash of last year’s excellent smash hit “Oliver Twist.” D’Banj is also a savvy synthesizer of the old and new Africa, as on “Nous les Meilleurs (We the Best),” a duet with the Congolese singer Fally Ipupa. But really, D’Banj has his eye on the world; he’s signed to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music imprint, and the lovely “Scape Goat (The Fix)” features what’s certainly the most cheerful version of Mr. West you’ll hear this year, or any year.

Any "review" that can not find a single fault in the work being reviewed is a PAID review. Just an advertisement. Trust me. grin
This one is a good example. It is not a "review" at all , it is an advertisement shouting "hey people, I want to tell you about Dbanj". Poorly done I am afraid.

kaze4blues: Paid review?

That's what pathetic souls will say.

Even if dbanj wins grammy, some folks here will say its paid for.

If its paid, why can't don jazy pay for any of his artistes to be nominated or win an award category at the NEA. Not even tiwa savage?

It is certain dbanj is going places.

Haterz can hate


if d banj ever win grammy make i die

P-square reigns in uncivilized countries? Go see where SA babes dey faint for P-square, even for yankee sef, P-square have been interviewed by Wendy Williams, sans Kanye or whatever D'banj has hyping him.

Then the word 'review' is contextually wrong the way its been used in the post.

A review is usually more like a critique,it examines the pros and cons of the subject matter being addresses. The article I just read doesn't do that,it reads more like an advert in my opinion.

why are u peeps hatin on dbanj, like it or not its a win win situation for him, if its a paid review then it means the nigga is very heavy in the game, if its not a paid review then he is making a serious impact in america.

besides dbanj is tired of making hit tracks in naija, so he needs something new. u haters are so quick to forget when u were dancing to tongolo, soco, why me, close to u, i love that booty, falling in love, gbono feli feli, pere, suddenly, move your body, mr endowed, scape goat, oliver twist shit i'm tired of counting.

davido, wizkid, wande coal, flavour, iyanya all these guys can never attain what dbanj is achieving.
talking about psquare, they're copy cats, pls they cant rep africa, everyone is shouting personally, why did they copy micheal jackson in the video, if you need original music contact 2face and dbang.

another misunderstanding, don jazzy did not make dbanj, dbanj made don jazzy, see what marvin records is now?

dbanj has said it all, "i'm not sorry i'm rich, i'm sorry u broke, nigga dont blame me, blame it on the money"
so dont tell me nonsense.

Truth be told,D Banj and Don Jazzy need each other. Both their games are getting weak. It transcends how much is in your bank account,true artistry involves the respect you get from your peers involved in the same game as you and how much your work pleases your customers and once that starts going it's just a matter of time the bank balance follows suit.

The world is dynamic and nobody has time for 'has been's'. A rebanding is desperately needed by both dudes.
