The only Musician that can't handle fame is Burna Boy, I love his songs.

But the distance between Burna boy and sense is like the distance between Tinubu's hand and A Flag.

The goal of every celebrity is to be at the top and remain there for as long as they could, some did, some tried but couldn't... while some just let go of the fame and move to other meaningful businesses of their choice

here are my top 5 countdown celebrity that couldn't handle fame


kOREDE BELLO

it's one thing to be talented and another to be prince charming.. kOREDE is an artist I won't say is that talented, he started young, signed to mavin with one of the most hotest hit single in nigeria of all time GOD WIN,. to the point his name was even changed to it. like they say one hit can keep you in the music business.. he had the fame all through that years just because of that song but too bad he couldn't capitalize on it, an opportunity alot of musicians are looking for till today.
even though is name will always ring a bell on our ears but his recent songs may not.


Mr, Eazi

when Eazi came out 2014, 2015 the whole industry shooked, wondering who is this wonder kid almost an extent he was dragged by two african countries, nigeria and ghana.
the nigeria born singer who spent quite some time of his life living in ghana was so talented with his thick voice and when he goes "high pitch" on a song they is way he does it till today I still haven't seen any artist that sound so "emotional" like the early mr Eazi sorta like post malone.. Dude was so different, came with a unique style and won next rated the following year unopposed, he even helped revived terry G career through a feature skin tight. it's so painful we don't know why he couldn't keep up, the only thing we knew is that he was dating a billionaire daughter. listening to his latest song this year Legalise, I shaked my head, this man still has it but lost the one thing that matters alot the "fame"

lil kesh

kesh is the reason why I don't blame mayorkun for sticking with davido all through this year's. maybe if he didn't leave olamide so soon he won't have turned to an upcoming artist. his genre of music has been filled by his kind with like of zlanta, naira marley, poco lee and the recent wave on the street portable. kesh had the fame but he couldn't handle it due to the path he chosed.


BLACK FACE

This man doesn't need an intro, he's been sympathised with all through the years by fans, friends and families (fff) for been a victim of a song robbery, african queen stolen by 2face.. he had the fame to renovate himself all through the years and make a comeback but unfortunately he couldn't, been the pillar of the defunct group plantation boys in the early 2000s, he had it all but a mismanagement of fame didn't really help. All he does to cry for a lost treasure and funny enough nigeria's don't take him serious no more. he caused it with his own hands.


ICE PRINCE
ZAmani, the man who made alot of nigerias love rap music. the oleku singer who was signed to choc city label became among the top artist making wave at that time within a short period of time. he was so loved as he brought series of rap hit singles, from been feature in samklef noni, superstar, to juju badman!....but all that begin to changed when he dived into doing what other artists were doing (party jam) just to please nigerias. to me that was the begining of his downfall.
he was known to be a rapper, why sing? if nigerias wants to listen to party jams they have wizkid for that, they have davido and alot of other musicians for that, he should have held his own which was hip-hop and by now he would have been a legend like his mentors before him, mi, ruggedman, eedris,naeto c.
though the last time we heard from him was a feature he got on "I like your waist in particular" which was a mega hit but ever since then nothing. ice Prince just couldn't handle fame, sometimes I wondered what really happened to him.

Note: King0G is no blogger but a music lover!
thank you


All these guys have handled Their FAME in Their Own Respective Ways.

Nothing can be constant.

Everything Changes.


They are All doing well in the various niches which they have invested themselves into.



So. The Titlebof Your Subject is Demeaning and Inhumans


This is not what is needed for National Development.



What Can We as Youths Achieve Greatly as Nigerians through their FAME ?

That's what INTEGRATION and UNITY should be about. There's no need for Shaming Their Musical Careers if They Decided To Navigate Towards Other Investments of Themselves.




Integrate.

Just like I'm well Integrated with Naira Marley through The Creation of Naira Marley Coin (NMC) built on The Ethereum Blockchain which is an Entertainment Empowerment Coin I'm utilizing to Financially Empower Nigerian Youths Through The Agricultural Movement of Non-Perishable Food Items (Palm Oil and Garri) from The Rural Farmgates in The Villages to The Urban Markets in The Cities.

I think their time has passed. Usually Nigeria musicians don't maintain their fame for long because they don't have real musical ideas, their music majorly Yoruba oriented and are only enjoyed in the most popular Lagos and Yoruba people as well as the mentally lame folks Nationwide so other musicians just come with the same Yoruba love noise and people abandon the old ones for them so even the new guys trending for you all now will soon fade out. I am yet to listen to all my Kendrick Lamar albums, J.cole albums, Drake, Tyga, all the uncountable 2pac doets, Jay z, fabulous, J.rock, ASAP Rocky, school boy q, Bryson tiller etc I'm yet to enjoy them to my satisfaction so what the hell will Naija artists and their Yoruba gibberish songs about bitches be doing on my playlists? The lame ducks are popular because majority of the masses are so dumb i guess, my country people love to make stupid lame musicians popular because the trash they dish out corresponds with the mentality of an average Naija youth.

True sha. Why Naija music (especially the current ones) don't stand the test of time is because its mostly meaningless jargons usually centered around fake and materialistic love, and many times about woman's backside.
No moral story to tell. Can only inspire a mad man to keep being mad.
Basically, just hype music for the clubs. When the dopamine of the song dies down, you jump to the next dopamine booster which is another meaningless jargon and beat.

There are some that were good.
I personally like Timaya's first album.

Tell me one rapper still making waves in Nigeria apart from those that compromised and started doing Afro-pop like Olamide.

Ice prince didn’t do anything wrong. He just refused to compromise his style. That’s why he as well as others like Mode9 and M.I went the way of the dodo.

The Nigerian masses had a brief flirtation with hip hop but it didn’t last long before they tossed it aside for Afro-pop. That’s why no pure rappers are making it today.

Op and your comments are confused and rubbish

mi is still the best African rapper number one no cap -- followed by nasty c. Black sheriff is also very hot right now.

Mi and Vector still released hit songs last year I'm sure Mi has done one hot song this year stop misyarning

Most of the people op mentioned r alive and well and still releasing good music but it's called five minutes of fame for a reason

* Korede Bello never had talent. After dropping "Godwin" Korede has been barren like HumbleSmith..

* Blackface remains one of the most talented artist ever...Dude wrote almost all the songs Plantashun boiz had in their first album..

* Ice murdered his own career. He was one of the pioneers of new school hiphop but he delved into party jams...

* Lil kesh is just a talentless mofo..

* Mr eazi is the worst of them all. He used his mouth to end his career by saying Ghanaian music influenced Nigerian music.
The clown should have gone down on his knees and apologize to every music lover in Nigeria.

-Korede Bello had talent. He could dance and had some good songs. I can mention 3 top artistes today that he was more talented than. He just didn’t have the drive and there’s a limit to how far you can go in music without personal drive, even with all the talent in the world and a monster producer like Don Jazzy. Maybe he had some other plans for his life or another source of income.

- Black face was too loyal to people that were not loyal to him. He practically helped make Tuface a superstar but Tuface did not return the Favour when he got there. Such is life.

- Ice prince stuck to pure rap and the Nigerian masses fell out of love with pure rap. No pure hip hop artiste is really making it big today.

- Lil Kesh I agree with you was always just a fad that was bound to fade away with time. Very much like this Zazu character today.

- Mr Eazy is talented but also very laid back. You can’t blame him. His insurance/back up plan is very obvious for all to see.
