Would You Pay A Busker? by Thisxisxmyxname(m): 6:11pm On Dec 04, 2021
If you see a busker on the street or in a park performing good music, and the music actually moves you, will you drop any cash?

I know there isn't much of a busking culture in Nigeria, so I was wondering how my fellow brethren would react in Buhari's regime if someone (like me, for example) were to take up a guitar and sing.

What would you do?

Lol...

Ok, let me try saying this in Pidgin.

Ona sabi all those people wey dey play music for street, abi? Those people wey go drop hat make person put money inside. Dem be BUSKERS.

I know say this kind thing dey rare for this side. Na only for movies wey me I don see am, actually.

I just been dey reason the whole matter. I fit sing and play guitar, but I no really think say person go even look my face if I try this kind thing for here.

So you wey dey read this long tory, if you see person wey ihn(forgive me, I don't know how to spell this lol) music make sense, you go fit drop small money for am?


PS: Forgive me I spelt any of the Pidgin wrong. I've never actually had to type Pidgin before. This feels so weird.

Lol...

Look at this child of God!
Using me to catch cruise...
XD

It is well.

Anyway, I can definitely see why people might treat me like a beggar if I did it in a noisy, busy street. But what I have in mind is a more quiet venue, preferably a park.

In a park, I think people would be interested in stopping to listen, especially if the musician actually sounds good (like in my case). But whether or not they would pay any money is the real question.

Would you pay if you heard this?

PS: I don't actually intend to do any busking here in Nigeria. I'm just curious about it because it's something I would really have liked to do (if I had been born somewhere else).
