verygudbadguy:
I guess this is Wizzy's week with the way NLers are coming up with threads on him.

@Op, I see no mistake here. Wizzy is on the right track. He hasn't ditched his afro sound, he is only trying to reach out to a bigger audience. It goes on to show his versatility in music.

I get your point on the below bolded though...

* You can't do it better than the people that owns the stuff, no matter how you try,U will only be close to them '


I believe it is better to give it a trial than not trying at all...

My only advice is that he should try and feature more on the African scene. He has got Runtown and Eazi as allies. He can jump on tracks with them and remain the Starboy he is...
The thing is are u enjoying his recent songs?

Op go siddon wia contain you.
Like say Drake dey come closer video,you go write dis rubbish?
With what Wizkid did on Shaba ft Chris Brown,Trey Songz,can Davido bounce on a track like dat?
Lots of people from d international community are full of praise for Wizkid's Come Closer as they've tagged it different from d norm.
If he is not doing d foreign blend wit Afro beats well which u are trying to ridicule,I would av agreed wit u.
But every song he's brought out since d larger audience sojourn has been on point.
Op Abeg u live dat thing,Wizkid na magic!
Guy come closer na song? Wat do u people even listen to?

Has wizkid dropped any EP or album recently?
Is DaddyYo not naija kind of music?
Is Sweet Love not naija kind of music?
He has a track Ghetto Youth he is yet to drop have u listened to the snippet?
Just tell us you prefer Davido to wizkid not you giving us a baseless opinion..
Come Closer video promoted African-Heritage culture with those melanin girls so what's are you saying exactly?

Synord it wud be better for you to face your own music career squarely instead of bringing topics on those who have made it already.
help me tell m o... Well I don't really like much of Nigerian music but wizkid is just d best to me

The Roots !!!

Never change your real self/style to gain appeal to some people who care less about what you may have to offer... Originality matters a lot..

Davido signed to Sony Music and was not allowed to drop a single song for eleven months...The single drought adversely affected his career in terms of airplay, shows and awards.. By the time he was allowed to drop songs, he had to forfeit his creative control and dropped the poorly received Son Of Mercy EP where he had to do rnb, Patois ,trap and some other sounds alien to the davido we know..


Fast forward,Davido realized he had made a big mistake ...He realized he had stop giving people what attracted sony/Rca to him in the first place..
His African rhythm/melody....His creative control had been seized and he was being forced to do songs that appealed to the whites...

Swiftly, he posted on his Instagram that f**k the international s**I and claimed he is back to his roots and his basics...He also added that his creative control had been returned.. He sacked his manager,Kamal and got his old pal ,Asa asika on board...

...Long story short, Davido returned to what we knew him for..Pure Gbedu African Sound...His Single " IF is the biggest single at the moment ...And his next singles ( all African jams ) Fall. BabyTomato and Won le ba are all potential hits..Davido had even set aside his international feature titled kpere ft youngthug and swae Lee to later dates... Sense



.....

Wizkid since featuring Drake has been turned from the gbedu and lamba African sound giver to a reggae and dancehall singer.. The plan is to turn wizkid completely to a dancehall singer... Bounce along with Zara Larsson, u don't know with Justine Skye, Kranium's believe ,major laser Boom boom, Daddy Yo,Sweet love ,fine wine remix,Rkelly thank you ...


Every single Song has been a drift to the reggae ragga Impression...No wonder the latest song "whine for me ' was with Vybez kartel...Some might say Wizkid is trying to appeal to international market or he does global music now , but which of the So called globally appealing music has made it as big as Ojuelegba, where Africa percussions and the Yoruba langugage signifying his roots was used..

Which of these globally appealing singles have gotten airplays like in my bed, Ojuelegba. Show me the money...

Fela anikulapo kuti invented afro beats and today , he is more known internationally than any Nigerian artist ...Sunny Ade was nominated for Grammy for his juju music...


* You can't do it better than the people that owns the stuff, no matter how you try,U will only be close to them '


Davido raked in Over 45 million from shows according to his Snapchat from shows after he released If ....Wizkid has not performed in Nigeria since last year !!! who is gaining and who is losing...


Wizkid , I beg of you , take us back to the days of no lele, Oluwa lo ni, ojuelegba, mummy mi, Holla at your boy , tease me.. We are tired of this your " Do what the teacher say don't come late " and reggaeton oyinbo vibes..

African music can get you the Grammy.Ask.Angelique kidjo ,Soweto choir and Yiussoif Dior.

Are you not the guy that always criticise our artists saying they sing rubbish but here you're writing against Wizkid again after he started singing the west side type of songs,you and your yeye cohorts have been hyping.Confusion is really your name
Re: One Single Thing Wizkid Needs To Learn From Davido !!!! by donnyflex01(m): 10:54am On Apr 08, 2017
I just feel theres no harm in trying new sounds. Times r changing abd with it comes new stuff..if wizkids new sounds still gets him massive patronizers ,then why stop growing.more grease to his elbows but if it reduces his fan base.then he should stick to what he does best...

to be sincere with you guys, I'm kinda loving davido, I think he's back to what really makes him thick. and to wizkid I'm not really feeling him again. I prefer our artist do us, let them promote our own kind of music. anyway this is just a personal preference...

no. I disagree.

WizKid is being versatile. he hasn't lost his style.

Davido on the other hand is a talentless spoilt kid and cannot be versatile. He can barely sing.

E.g, Beyonce always does a song from another genre in all her albums. Especially her last album, she did a country song ;criticised by some, loved by her fans.

Don't put an artist in a box. don't limit a talented artist.
Talentless you say.

How come he has been singing hits and melodious sounds.
From IF, the money, dodo, aye etc.

To me i dislike the way wizkid draws his voice like okro while singing and sometimes goes of tune.
It shows he doesn't have good and enuf lyrics or something meaningful to say when he draws voices. Empty*.

For example. In that track come closer. He was like *yeye yeye yeye yeye* almost repeating like 50times, baby come cloooooooser yeeeeee. That closer was like 15seconds that he spent on it. So empty!

I hope you have the understanding to know what i mean and not take it the other way round


I don't even know what people enjoys listening to these days wizkid songs. Inconsistent tunes, Not melodious, crap sounds, average beat, quack lyrics, Just rants. Yet people listen to it
Sometimes I wonder

Not a fan of either of them but come plain sweetheart,from your comment, I know you hate davido..

Music is not all about music music music, music is about business and staying true to what brought you fame !!!

Sweet sis , there is a difference between been creatively different and trying new styles and changing your whole entire vibe as wizkid is trying to do !!!

Lil Wayne released a rock album and still continued spilling bars after ...The way wizkid is going,na Bob Marley and patoranking style he go later follow !!!

Be comfortable in your own lane wizkid

Allow them to evolve with their creative flow and also entertain global ears and emotions. It is not always about the money. Go and learn how to play talking drum, and show case it, but allow these guys to do their thing.

Am not talking about money..Am talking about not abandoning your first wife because you want to please the 2nd one !!!

Wizkid has always had a touch of Western and Dancehall touch. His first tracks are mostly Dancehall. Maybe this writer started following from the middle

Nobody gives two f-cks about your sound that doesn't contain rich lyrics, Wizkid is actually trying to do something, not all the musicians we have here in Nigeria.

magazineguy:
It is quite obvious OP doesn't know what evolving music is. Wiz keeps evolving since the days of Holla at your boy and that's why we keep loving every time.

Every international joint Wiz has done, there is always an afrobeat feel which makes the song even more interesting.

Wiz is not your average artist, I mean not even your good artiste. Wiz is a maestro when it comes to music.

To the guy who said Wiz is not doing shows, do you know why? I called Sunday Are recently and he said Wiz isn't doing shows for now apparently they have plans structured out.

Wiz is in the global eyes, if you watch and listen to Come Closer video then you would know that Wiz has magic when it comes to music.

As far I am concerned, that video is a standard international video. Wiz is not losing, Davido isn't losing either.

Let niggas be great!!!

WizKid is a maestro in music? shocked

If Wiz has 'magic' when it comes to music, THERE'S NO HOW HE WOULDN'T BE ON THE INTERNATIONAL SCENE TODAY
