Late Legendary Dr Sir Warrior of his blessed memory was extraordinary talent in music. He basically didn't write his songs. Composed them on the stage and it flows. He had a unique velvet voice and his lyrics embedded with proverb and wisdom.

You'll need to understand Owerri dialect though to fully benefit from the inherent wisdom of this talented music icon of all time. We must not forget the founding fathers of the high life and AFROBEAT who are resting in the Lord.

We must remember and give them credit for their contributions in Nigerian music industry.

I salute the home town and state of oriental Brothers international Band Owerri Imo State.

But Sir Warrior is personally from Mbaise.

Highly talented though failed woefully in parental duties reason why he raised that holigan of a son that tormented us those days in Abia state university

Munzy14:

I feel connected with the topic..

Even my song playing currently is Kelechi by Orientals..

King sunny ade is still far more better than this fraud and local champion

Ozo wu iwem was a diss song by Kabaka. He sang the song after he fall out with sir warrior. It is in that song that they said "if you see a snake and an Mbaise man, kill the Mbaise man before you kill the snake"

Denoh68:
WHERE WAS HIS WIFE, MUST THE MAN BE THERE TO PARENT HIS CHILDREN, DON'T YOU THINK MOST POBLIC FIGURES WOULD FIND IT DIFFICULT TO COMBINE TALENT AND PARENTING DUTIES. I THINK HIS WIFE SHOULD HAVE FILLED THAT VOID SIR.

Was never a fan of highlife until I started missing home.
You can never compare them to today's songs. So educative, encompassing and encouraging.

Sometimes when I'm down, they sooth my nerves.

Each song send me home to a particular person and time.

Useku:
When chips were down for me as a uni boy,I drew strength from his songs playing cassettes from my transistor radio.

I remember,
Ozo wu iwem,and I fought never to have a generational pattern web me in.

I remember ,

Onye mezie ndu ya emezie,and I vowed to leave right and shun temporal pleasures

I remember,
All the lyrics of nwanne awu eyin and I chose to learn from the wisdom of the ancients!

I have their songs in my office laptop,car stereo and in my bedroom.

Rest on dey warrior.

nogasimplicity:
Oriental is one of the best with deep reflection, words of encouragement, advice, scintillating tunes. Word like "Oji oso agbakwuru ogu" ozu sibe usi enyi ka nwanne alala", oke no na olulu onwere nso"., elibe uzo libe enyi", agamefu adighi mma na aju", etc I do play ihe oma almost everyday. He Sir warrior and the surviving members like dansatch, ichita and kabaka are legends in highlife music. God bless Oriental brothers
