I spent 3 months in Tanzania, egypt, South Africa, Dubai, Kenya before coming back to Nigeria, the most popular song I heard on every streets are - AYE and Skelewu - Davido, Testimony - P square, Yemi Alade - Jonnie, Tu face - african Queen, Story - P square, Tattoo girls - faze.. I think these MTV are playing politics and not realities

I have always wondered: If African Queen had been released in 2014, would it be a hit? I doubt it. The market no longer has any appetite for slow/love songs. Gbam Gbam Gboom Gboom kpangolo songs have taken over.

By the way, this list is a joke. Whoever compiled it clearly has no idea what "all time" means. No mention of monster super hits of the 1970s, 80s and 90s. . . . Complete joke.

keyzid: Where Terry G.....Free madness

Dottune: The Top 5 Should be In This Arrangement:

1. African Queen- 2face
2. Do me - Psquare
3. Why Me - D'banj
4. Gan Gan Aso - 9ice
5. Hollar At Your Boy- Wizkid

Lol@ bolded

It should be top 20songs of this generation. ..we do not opening it I knew african queen will be No 1

UjSizzle:
I know the latest versions of the songs here, with the exception of Sweet Mother. But that still doesn't make them All Time bests. What parameters are your judgements based on?

I'll like to know what MTV Africa used too, because some of the songs they listed are trash.

You don't know Sweet Mother? No mother's day in Nigeria is complete without it.

Each one of those songs was a major hit in Nigeria (number one on many tv and radio charts). They were also hits beyond Nigeria (Sweet Mother, Hello Africa etc were pan african hits. Hello Africa was in the top ten in several European countries). Not only were they hits for their time (that is, the year they were released and a few years afterwards) they remain major hits long afterwards, eg

No mother's day in Nigeria is complete without Sweet Mother. If you doubt me, listen to radio stations the next mother's day and see how many stations will play it.

Hello Africa is perennially associated with Africa. Watch and see if this song is not played at any major event that's associated with Africa (in Africa and europe). It was not only number 1 in Nigeria, but also number 1 in Austria, number 2 in Germany, number 7 in Switzerland and number 1 in many African countries. It was also a top ten hit across Europe.

Sawale and Baby Jowo are so good that, not only are the originals regularly played on radio, but they've spawned several cover versions (Feladey, Flavour, etc for Sawalele and Art Alade, L.t Shotgun, etc for Baby Jowo). Who would want to cover a crappy song?

These are some of the greatest Nigerian songs ever.

dagrin olenu bi ponpon ponpon

kasniga: Dj jimmy jattz- Lagos anthem..

I'm sure u meant stylee

rman: What about Olufunmi

And Call My Name by Styl Plys?

For me, those two are far better than some of the songs on that list.

MTV dey mad sha! At least Olufunmi shuld be on that list. Cause its far better than even African Queen *my opinion though*

.

Rubbish list!

That's the list of the Greatest Nigerian songs of the last decade!

Definitely not of all time! Gaddamit!

i won't take the list serious until they find a way and include at least a Fela's track.

Styl plus-Olunfunmi
Zulezu- kerewa
victor Uwaifo- Joromi
Mavin all stars- Dorobucci
if Davido wan enter by force dem 4 put Aye. Idiots, so styl plus works are in vain.

Djinee- ego
nigga Raw- obodo
any of Ekwe songs

nonsense list. what happened to asa,obey,sunny ade,onyeka onwenu,omawumi,and some other evergreen songs

No Mr Endowed! what a sham list...no Ikechukwu

Wen u smoke wet weed... U can't account for ur actions #smh

Right to a large extent.

philmimi1992: where is CHINKPAN by Zulezu?

Arva:
Seyi Sodimu- love me jeje.


Tag- tomis14

Agreed.

Funny how the list is supposed to not be genre specific but, cuts out a lot of good songs, seems mtv only focused on songs that have appeared on their shows cos if we begin from the 60s at least I am sure (it may just be me being one sided but) no psquare song should make the list.

Dottune: It's not among the Top 5

i understand

Where is Ijoya by Weird mc ? That was a banger back then. Young and old danced to that song... And the video was very creative, it should have made that list.





Have no fear; Mannylex is here

Adikam: Dbanj,neato c &flavour should'nt be on that list...meanwhile one of FACE song should be there & NICE FT 2FACE street credibility also.wizkid songs can neva be evergreen wit dat childish lyrics but i think mtv african gateman arrange the list wit female cleanner.
