IronGalaxy:
ah come on, are you telling me some scrawny football-obsessed pale kid from Lancashire is the one filling Arenas when Pantoraking's perfoming? The same UK with such a high number of Nigerians? highly unlikely

likely

I seen some of them that love our music

besides other Africans too attend such concerts

theTranscriber:
okay

can you tell me a popular Naija song that is of low quality?



those guys aren't Nigerian
lol
those guys can't rap without saying "nigga a thousand times

nasty c does far better than them

they have the market that's why they like that
black Americans love that music

I agree with you on this one

check out dababy's remix of essence
with a thousand "niggas

Someone like Asa is a good musician, Niniola too, others just sound too samey and Afrobeat production is repetitive as well, which can get boring fast.
Nasty C is dope but you Nigerian guys overrate him. The are plenty of doper rappers in SA. checkout this rapper

theTranscriber:

Nigerians travel a lot
our nigerianess never leaves us

most of the SA songs that won Grammys are not SA in nature

all Nigerian Grammys are Nigerian in nature

@bolded -

Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Soweto Gospel Choir and Miriam Makeba (pata pata) are not singing South African music?

Wow, on the other hand, Sade and Seal's music (and Mr American band drummer) is Nigerian in nature

Ok dude, have u been sipping on palm wine throughout this entire debate coz you're beginning to become dizzy? But I understand the heat is on from the mighty SA army (uMkhonto weSizwe - the MK).

So the MK will give u a break till tomorrow.

IronGalaxy:

I need an example

you've caught on the tmksouth obsession with "autotune

how do you south Africans know when autotune is used?

have you listened to the musicians live?

IronGalaxy:

Nope I'm my own man with own opinions. TMK is most definitely spot on, the autotune is too excessive in your music, even the yelling! Jesus Christ your musicians can yell hey! took a leaf from your actors' books

you can easily tell when the voice is electronic

theTranscriber:

It's obvious coz we rarely use it (remember I told u we have fabulous voices ). Whereas u guys use it all the damn time that u don't even notice it anymore, you think it's natural. It's highly annoying down here.

And no he didn't learn it from me - it's a common criticism here in SA and its very sincere.

You nitpick one track with no autotune to make your point? how convenient

TMKsouth:

But, it's true.

nah it's not
why is it that only SA shouts "autotune?

IronGalaxy:
It's your musicians with this obsession

LMAO

Afrobeats is like Nollywood with the excessive use of sound effects. He's still in denial that they're going overboard with the A-word.

I've seen recent ones on Netflix. Still shit

IronGalaxy:
.

that is a poorly produced song
besides it isn't easy to put more than 4 diverse musicians on a track like that

theTranscriber:
nah it's not

Coz we have lovely voices and good taste in music.

Check this attachment where Nigerians themselves admit Davido sounds terrible without autotune, Nigeria's saving grace

IronGalaxy:

most I seen on Netflix are also shit

I'm talking of real Nollywood
not Netflix funded trash

which ones you seen?

Lol, collaborations of diverse musicians is a staple diet of music industries all over.
To me Nigerian music sounds like this in a nutshell
