The Next Big Thing After Bbnaija 2020?

Writer: Onyekachukwu Gbadegesin

Finalists of the Big Brother Naija reality TV show had their final competition last night, the 27th of September, with Laycon walking away with Prizes worth #85million. This comes 71 days after the onset of the show. During that period, Nigerians lent their unreserved attention to the reality show, whilst also making conversations, about the in-house activities of the contestants, on various social media platforms.

The conversations, however, did not end with the show. The winner, Laycon, remained on everyone's lips and fingers, till the next morning, taking the number spot on Nigeria's trend list. But with the end of the show, Nigerians already expect the next big thing from the entertainment industry.

BBNaija 2020 drowned Nigerians in drama and unadulterated entertainment for 2 months, but now that it is all over, Nigerians are ready to move on but the question now on everyone's mind is, "what's the next big thing from the entertainment industry?"

Due to the flexibility of entertainment, one can only speculate. However, Nigerians are likely going to be baptized with new songs from the music industry. Artists such as Omah lay who released a 4 track EP (Extended Playlist) earlier this year is likely to drop a single to remind people of his musical skill. Also, we shouldn't forget Laycon, the Rapper.

Apart from being the latest BBNaija Winner, Laycon is also a Rapper who had numerous celebrity support while in the house. Now outside and still the rave of the moment, his manager and team would want to maximize the strength of his fame by taking him to the studio for a new single.

Other music artists who are yet to stamp their feet in the industry would want to use this vacuum to spread their names. However, the music industry wouldn't be getting all the monopoly as Cinemas are reopening.

Movie producers would seek to churn out quality movies to attract movie lovers to cinemas across the country. Nollywood might be the highest winners after BBNaija due to the lockdown that has kept people indoors for months. Cinemas would be occupied to its new maximum (Social-distancing included) capacity with long queues waiting to occupy the theater

The next big thing would definitely be massive and the fierce competition in the Nigerian entertainment industry would assure us of not just quantity but quality.

Do you know anyone we should be looking out for or upcoming events that will blow our minds away, if yes, then drop their names and prospective projects in the comment section.

Stay Safe.
