List Of Naija Musicians That Copied Foreign Musicians. by Nobody: 7:19pm On Nov 22, 2013
1. Psquare.

This boys came into the scene with their last nite album with the track "last nite" having a marvin gaye beat sampled (sexual healing), a beat they later used in their temptation album for the song "story". The track "temptation" was also sampled from the UK singer Nathan. "Bizzy body" and "do me" were bitten from kevin little's "turn me on". Also, their dance steps are usher and MJ prototype.

2. Wizkid.

Came in the game singing like sean kingston but later found his own swag. He copied the song "holla at your boy" from an asian singer.

3. Wande coal.

Sings like t-pain.

4. Olamide.

sounds like lil wayne.

5. 9ice.

Wyclef comes to mind.




With so much copy-copy going on, i doubt if naija can really boast of an industry they can call their own when almost all the top shots sound like american musicians, a reason americans wont see much reason to have our acts grace their own songs, only time they star together is when our acts pay huge money to have them feature on a track they later call the remix.

1.olamide never sounded like lil wayne at one period or d other,...I bet u never listened to any olamide's song apart from eni duro. and even on eni duro a deaf man knows he was just freestyling and not copying anybody
2. 9ice sounds like wyclef?.... what tha fvck are u smoking over there?.. is it wedding day, street credibility. loni ni, gongo aso,.or alapomeji anthem that sounds like a wyclef song?..huh?
3. wizkid came into the game and sounded like Sean Kingston?... u mean he sounded like Kingston on kel's wa wa alright and also on mi's fast money fast car?.( at least those are his pre-holla at ur boy songs)..what tha fvck once more..
4.wande coal is a t-pain wannabe, like seriously negro?...u mean he sounded like t-pain in the kick, pere, rotate, Jehovah,close to u,etc?... Nna na wa for the kind ear wey u get o..
5. I agree with u on psquare. They sample anything sample-able( if there is any grammar like that)

LAST BULLET: bros don't ever listen to beer parlor talk without enough research and use it to create topic especially on the Nigerian music industry....

^^^ dude, i guess u only started listening to music.

9ice even admitted he sounds like wyclef on his track "music dadddy", go ask your neighbours.

listen to "holla at ur boy" again and then listen to sean kingston, tell me what you observed.

Olamide, with the auto-tuned "eni duro" sounded like lil wayne, though he doesnt anymore.
