I believed it was Obasanjo's Ban, that ended his career, by the time he came back in 2006/7, R&B was the thing; p-square, tuface, paul play and the likes were killing it then. The closest to hip hop then, was Dbanj, and wasn't even a rapper.

Is quite unfortunate that none of them where rich compare to Terry g, not to talk of others. The struggle of Nelson Mandela is being enjoyed now by those who where yet to be born then.

They did delve into hip hop though.
Not as a mainstream.

Behold my best Nigerian rap group of all time. Listened to "Plenty Nonsense" and 'Skillz' only yesterday and I was wowed at the level of lyrical ingenuity those lads displayed in those pieces.

It was a hit worldwide. It was even popular in Chile.

Where was the video for "it's my life" shot?

Was it in Sweden? being that Dr Alban was Sweden based
