African Kings are a group out of Houston, TX according to their Myspace page. Honestly, the first time I heard their music, I was convicted of their wackness. I actually listened halfway to their last mixtape because I was forced to; I felt like they were unserious with the music and it was just a hobby for them. Well, I was right and it looks like they are taking it more serios now, because this "We are AKS" joint is a worthy track. African Kings may have a shot if they continue to make more songs of this caliber or better on a consistent basis.

yes ive also noticed that about their hits especially on their myspace page but i thought mayb their fans realli luved dem, it wasnt until their latest promo was posted on the naija djs page, http://www.myspace.com/naijadjs, it already has 1516 hits, it was posted alongside party rider remix nd x-project's nu single which only has 102 hits,
im not hating or nethin, wen big artists like 2face dbanj nd d rest r posted on that page, dey dnt get that much hits in 3days, nd lets face it we cnt compare AKS to dbanj or 2face.well i mayb b wrong nd i stand to be corrected, just my two cents

YourFather:

nosa you are hashhh,  man! Wale is just way more international, 

I wasn't trying to be harsh but these stans tried to make it seem like AKS were bigger than Wale. WTF?
Compare their myspaces, who looks like the bigger artist?

The funny thing is that Wale and AKS started their shit in the same country and at around the same period. Wale is a fairly new artist, he's only had like 3 mixtapes out. If the AKS were so major they would have major buzz in TX. I've been in TX for like the last 3 odd years and I only heard about these dudes on Nairaland. If you are worth shit then you should have some buzz.

Where have they been featured?
Any big time blogs? Which concerts have they performed at? South By Southwest?
Nobody knows the AKS in TX and that's a fact. I'm Houston or Austin every other day and I don't hear shit from this dudes. They aren't even big in Dallas.

Real recognize real and the AKS look mighty unfamiliar.

I don't know shit about Sauce Kid and Cali so I'm not going to call him out.

nosa allow these guys. the truth has come out,
godwon is from texas, b verse from texas. should i go ahead and these guys have a texas following. these fukkersare sucking djs dicks and using softwares to dull themselves. hungry for promo. everyone is but damn, they go about promoting some shit that will make you not turn back to them. who knows aks? how much do they get per show? how many songs do they have on air? how many of their songs are hits? how many songs does anyone like?
how many times have u heard them being advertised in yankee or naija radio? how many times have you heard someone say you hav to get the aks album? how many times has any othe rdj apart from naiajdjs played these guys?lol.

3 ids on nairaland will not blow u up. when u start to make the music the people like you'll get a buzz and then u can start using these softwares to your own use. the real artists will get undeniable attention. the fake ones will fake it
shikina on that note, aks can go shoot themselves wit 47 bullets from an ak 47
una papa

Are u serious Who's heard about WALE?? We from da South, DALLAS TX!!! And Never heard of this dude, Check yah sources out!!! Wale's been out weh longer than da AKS!!! AKS Juss recently start pushing their shit out because a lot of ppl started buzzin fuh them!!! I got their song our my page, and so does ma peeps, they play their song in every Naija party I;ve been throuh!! And if u say u've been in dallas and houston or Austin then u in denial coz first things first, AINT NO NIGERIAN ARTIST FROM DA SOUTH DOING IT BIG, ESPECIALLY IN DALLAS, coz niggas don wanna listen to any Nigerian music, So here comes AKS tryna change that and we have fools Like you tryna Bash that, And what's this software y'all are talking about?? First it was fake Id's now it softwares, Always leave it to Naija peeps to bring upcoming artists down,

I live in D-Town and this is why I will represent these niggas till Da South Recognizes Nigerian Music, 2Face came to Dallas, it flopped only 25ppl showed up, Riz came to Dallas only 20ppl showed up, Sunny came to Houston, barely anyone showed up, Am telling y'all, Nigerian music aint bumpin hard here in da South!! And nosa101 shud know this if he/she claiming to be in da Dallas area, This is da AKS motivation, their main reason of tryna push Nigerian Music in da south!!! So Fukk what y'all going thru, if u can't stand em, don't listen to them!! How hard is it?? Itz obvious y'all love their shit that's why y'all cant help but hate on it, I don't even see why I bother, Sauce(That was born in Nigeria, carried green papers to enter yankee and now tries to claim he african American and tries to sound like he american, doesnt have any Nigerian feature in him, ) is better than Modenine(Why Not), Wale(Can't hate on him but doesn't sound anything Nigerian, let's not talk about the fact that he be gettin more plays than Sauce or Mode9 (Which means his better than MODE or 2face or 9ice It's impossible to assume that Wale got his own fans that listens to his shit!!! Also I guess we can all say he has fake ids and softwares too right)) is better than AKS(That u can hear piggin in their rap and song, Hardcore Naija representers), Nothing Do Una, fuh real,

I never said I'm in Dallas. I said I go to Dallas on the odd occasion.

Music is music. I don't like hearing that "Nigerian Music" shtick. If your music is relevant then it will bump hard. Didn't reggaeton and dancehall broke into the states?Chamillionaire was born and raised in TX to Nigerian parents and that hasn't stopped him. All this labeling of music just limits your audience.


One of y'all AKS stans said AKS was bigger than Wale and that is completely false. I go to school in TX but I live in MD. Wale is heavy in the DMV (DC-MD-VA) area.
I would understand if you guys were heavy in Dallas or but you aren't. Modenine is major in Nigeria. Wale is major in the DMV (he has an Interscope deal to boot). The AKS are major where?

I won't knock your hustle. I might not like your music but I'll never knock another man's hustle. I'm not a hater, I'm a fair critic. I applaud your nigeriand-ness and all that but I don't like your stuff for the most part.
I said it on another thread, I actually listened to African Kings. I like Moni Owo and Gold Digger but the other stuff doesn't get me. The only reason I even brought Wale into this was because you guys attacked my honesty. The song in the promo video sucks and there are no two ways around it.


I could care less about Sauce Kid because, apart from the fact he's a ghetto thug poser, he's lyrically weak and I maintain that stance until he proves me wrong. And the same thing goes for African Kings, they aren't worth shit until they prove me wrong.

I guess fool, datz ur opinion so, Nothin do u, as for me, I like their shit, Dancehall has been there for years until sean=paul brought that shit out 2 da states, likewise 4 raggaeton!!! And don't even mention chamillionaire!!! Da nigga don't even rep Naija!! R u serious AND HE FROM DA SOUTH!!! So yea, Ma point proven!! U dont have to like their music, every1 has their own taste!!! Wale go hard but i don't see anything Nigerian in him, so yea, i guess he focusing in the us music industry!!! So that's him, Sauce is a fraud 2 me and always will be,
