Does it change the fact that your economy and cities now being developed by oil money? Bhuhahahaha!

Ibrahimanis:

Of all the Nigerian musicians you could have accused of not making it abroad you chose dbanj and lady t. Smh

Lionessza6:


LMFAO , I smell some hurt on that post. Challenge me to showcase our artists that are making waves overseas or that have made history on the international scene . South Africa didn't start producing quality with the likes of Nasty c , he is still a learner to how far we have come in selling African music. Stop making little boy excuses about language , I love Congolese music even though I don't understand French or their indigenous languages . South African artists sing in all our languages including English and they appeal to bigger crowds outside of Africa, infact most of our well known artists made their names outside of Africa before being known around the continent . The reason tiwa savage, dbanj and them moved back to Nigeria to make it , is because there was no demand for their music outside of Africa. Our grandmother Miriman makeba the pioneer of African music died in Europe performing . Our DJ black coffee is the only African to be named best dj and winning international awards and he is resident dj in Israel, Portugal and Spain . That is just a glimpse of what we have . There is a reason why our music industry is worth more than yours even with your population, we appeal to a bigger audience than Africa. It has been like this for decades . Ask the likes of Naptu on this forum.

Why are we posting here? Because we can . As for SA being boring .... well that's your opinion, but millions of outsiders who flock here for festivals, tourism and just pure fun disagree with you .

Yes he makes waves in Spain and Israel.try expanding that territory to English speakers and see what happens.Like I said earlier,the exaggerated number of listeners you get listen because they feel its pure afro beats.Do they actually enjoy those songs?I don't think so.And most of those singers you mentioned sold in the 20th century alongside our own legends like fela and sunny ade.The former was known for inventing afro funk.Bono once mentioned that if you kidnapped the latter you would groove all night.As of now S.A. artistes don't sell as much as their Nigerian counterparts.Check online and you would see the attention you get is mostly from Africa.east and southern Africa specifically.Don't get me wrong I love S.A. but I can't deny Nigeria is above you in world music impact.

NairobiWalker:


Oh, so you don't know her but brought her into this discussion? . FYI I didn't even know Bien was dating a Nigerian until you said it and had to google it to confirm. Then I realized why, no sane beautiful Nigerian woman is going to settle for those Nigerian jokers when she could date a Kenyan man.

forgiveness:


Well, Morocco is serious about it.

Lionessza6:

Yes , both of them have even tried their luck here . Dbanj even moved to SA at some point but there was no market for his music so he left. I'm not saying they are bad artists but definitely not top quality in Africa. If they had an urge overseas I doubt they would be spending most of their time in Nigeria, truth be told . They would be overbooked overseas like our black coffee , Tandiswa Mazawi, lira to name a few . Just saying though......

HAIYYEEE!? GASSSPPPP! Fyi,just so you all know I don't hate and only disagree with silliness,kazikazi is right,actually only half right,but still! Japanese is an amalgam of African languages,including Bantu,Somali and W African lingo. Japanese themselves and Nairobi language instructors have told me Japanese is more of an African language.

LMFAO, go and Google his concerts in London and America. If our artists don't sell as much as yours then why is our music worth more than your own? . I said challenge me to show you how our artists are seen overseas . You are only being sentimental now . Mind you when our artists perform in Britain, Ireland, Israel, America and Scotland don't even have a South African population in those countries to back them up , they are called there by the organisers of that country .it's a different ball game for yours, you have performances in places like Peckham in London and that place mainly has African immigrants ( Nigerians being the most ) . You are only known for your afrobeats , our artists cover all genres you can think of.

where overseas? is it in
Israel?Greece?or maybe in Mongolia?stop living in the past.Nigeria is bigger than S.A. in music now.When you start making waves not ripples in USA ,UK or even Canada then you can claim the top spot.

Jonraid:
We are on track becoming Africa's and among the world's trailblazers when it comes to green energy adoption. The plan now is to systematically phase out energy production by the means of thermal (oil).

Coming 2020, Kenya's electricity generating sources would wholly be from the renewable sources. We are yet again showing Africa how it's done! We recently showed the world our commitment in the blue economy and we will soon triumph on it , we are now on set to fully embrace green energy.It seems Uhuru the big man in State House wants to realize and secure his legacy at all costs.To our detractors and supporters , watch this space!

Kazikazi:
Yes yeah. I was amazed when I saw how quick a Japanese can learn and read Swahili.Currently they have a competition in Japan of reading swahili..the fastest reader wins! They really enjoy that.amazing hey.

very true and they will later say how they dominate

genieluv:

Do you want me to show you communities (not just one husband and wife) of hybrid Nigerian-chinese children, Nigerian-Scandinavian children? I highly doubt Kenyans have such hybrid communities with people from such far away and Fringe parts of the globe.

Are you being for real? Do you want me to show pictures of Kenyan women going gaga and almost fainting over Nigerian men performing?

The world saw a Nigerian as beautiful when she broke the jinx and became the first black miss world. The opinion of the world is far better than yours.

***** I didn't change the discussion to be about Ethiopia. I only asked you to prove your assertion that Kenyan men do truly go for Ethiopian women when seeking for beautiful wives... Is that so much to ask for?
If I make an assertion that Nigerian women go for white men when seeking for better husbands, I shouldn't become evasive or pissed off when I'm told to show proofs, should I?

***** So, after all your long online search, you could only come up with just Raila Odinga's son?

Here is a thread on nairaland about Nigerian men and Ethiopian women. Not that the average Nigerian man even thinks of Ethio women but due to how widely travelled they are, things like this are bound to occur

https://www.nairaland.com/2429410/ethiopian-women-nigerian-men-pics

I am waiting for those from Kenya, otherwise apologize and accept that Kenyan men are local men who don't see or marry beyond their villages or tribal clans.

Sometimes I feel like English language is the problem. Can you show me where I ever denigrated an African woman for dating a white man?
**** I only castigated Corazon for being such a low self esteemed lady, by saying she would be the white man's slave and loyal servant for life.

Yes, the man must approach first and the lady sometimes does not even give him face or act like someone important is talking

***** Here is an example. In the United states, Asian men- White women have the lowest rate of interracial marriages.
Now are we going to go by yours and Lionessza6's theory that make it look like it's all about the man finding the woman attractive? Hell no.

Asian men idolize white women and want them so bad!, but white women cannot just give them their attention.

~~~ I want to see if yourself or Lionessza6 can be bold enough to vomit the words that 'Asian men do not find white women attractive, hence the low rate of intermarriage between them'. I'm waiting!

When there are enough 'high swag induced' and sexy tall muscular Black, White and Latino men in abundance, why then would the average white woman even consider the nerdy smallish non muscular Asian man?

That is just it !
South African and Kenyan men tend to be shorter and look softer/weaker than the average Nigerian man.[/quote[

~~~ The average Nigerian man looks taller, muscular, cocky, Proud, show-offish than the average East of Southern African man, so we usually consider it dating down going outside Nigeria to other African countries.

As a Nigerian lady, you just cannot tell your friends you found a man from Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Kenya, South Africa or Burundi that you love and want to marry. **** You'll look like a worthless, foolish, low self-esteemed lady instantly.

>>>>> This is why you can find Nigerian male entertainers performing in other parts of Africa and the women are fainting, but I just can't imagine Jaguar, Nyashinki, Nasty C or any other African male artiste perform in Nigeria and you find our women going gaga. It can hardly happen.

You guys may think I'm biased but it's just the truth.

All of this is just nothing but the result of Nigerian entertainment dominating Africa.

¤¤¤¤ Personally, I'm not like most Nigerian women because I love history and diverse cultures, hence I spend my time getting to interract and know other Africans and their musics and movies. Hence I even love some Tanzanian and Rwandan artistes more than our Nigerian artistes, but it's really rare to find other Nigerians like me.

Nigeria is just like the USA of Africa, when it comes to culture. We are so Nigerian-centric. (I myself do not like this. I am more open).
As famous and much of sex symbols as most European footballers are all over the world, you cannot ask the average American woman to list 5 world footballers she sees as sex symbols... She just wouldn't know. She only knows the Lebron James of Basketball and those of Rugby, Ice hockey and baseball

Dont you get it?take this story for example.Two kids were asked to sing a nursery rhyme.the first recited Mary had a little lamb while the second recited Dantes inferno.The first one was picked over the second even though the second was undeniably better.Why? because the first is more of a rhyme than the second.Which is how foreigners attend S.A. concerts.They feel it is more 'african' than the Nigerian songs.They don't neccessarily like it neither do they see it ads better.

Ibrahimanis:

Simple answer, piracy in Nigeria. Looks like you are spoiling for a fight, alright I challenge "how are your artist seen overseas"

Lionessza6:


I have been following this exchange with genie and it's funny as hell.
LMFAO , I have never seen nor heard of a South African guy going crazy over a Nigerian girl's looks ....EVER !. So the lack of attraction is clearly mutual , men usually do the approaching though and I just don't see a South African man overlooking a South African girl for a Nigerian one , but we have seen plenty of their guys dumping them , and going as far as losing their last rands trying to impress some average looking club girl whose only purpose in life is to booze and sleep around .

Lionessza6:

Idiot , we don't do private universities in South Africa because our public universities are good enough . If you were bright you would know that our public institutions " dominate" in Africa , they make your private universities look like secondary schools . Don't embarass your country like this . LMFAO, what great businesses? Selling cheap tyres and fake clothing labels on our street corners ? . Get the f out of here with that crap . 90% of anything played in south Africa wether on radio or television is purely South African and that is by law , the 10 % slot is for foreign entertainers and it is dominated by America because we prefer quality to noise and witchcraft movies that always portray women as desparate husband hunters . We call who? .are your actors and musicians not the ones having their weddings and shooting music videos here ? . Don't get this twisted, it is your entertainers who can't get enough of Mzansi not the other way round . Our music industry alone is worth almost twice yours , so before you go around embarassing yourself with the usual " dominance " nonsense ask yourself why . Mzansi music industry has more Grammy awards than all African countries combined ( I know you will claim not to care about these awards ). When you actually make movies that can be rated by international standards and bring home Oscars and other international awards like we have , then you can talk ,for now you are all quantity and we are quality. Japan and China . Our music industry is one of the most diverse in the continent , we have some of the best hip -hop /rap , choral, gospel , afropop, house , rock, jazz, opera/ classical music artists. Don't forget that we were the first Africans to commercialize African music , so let's not talk about civilisation here . Our national anthem which has been voted the best anthem in the world on many occasions was composed in the 1800s when you were still busy selling your cousins to European thugs . It is the only anthem to be used by various countries . Most of what you guys call music, is only noise that can only be played at clubs after 12 when people are drunk and want to start bonking . By the way I like some " songs" by davido .

Based on statistics, Nigeria is the 9th shortest country in the world and the shortest in Africa so I wonder what height you're yapping about.
