Unpopular Opinion: Don Jazzy Is Not Managing His Artistes Well. by RTID: 7:33pm On Jun 12, 2023
Unpopular Opinion.

Of recent, Don Jazzy is not managing his signees well.

He has a number of fantastic artists, but most of them sing nonsense!

Look at Boy Spyce for example.

"Acrobatic, aromatic, systematic..."

What the hell is that?!

Just when I thought I had heard enough, dude comes out in a feature to sing something lamer.

"Carry me go where I no know, burst by bololo".

You spent months grooming your signees, only for them to release music that sounds like they recorded it under the influence of inferior alcohol, "shersee".

Look at Bayanna. You give her tatata, really? That's supposed to be a song?

I used to be so much in love with Arya Star.

Her Samaritan song was world class! Everybody around the world vibed to it.

Then, she released Rush. I was like, this is not Arya's style, but maybe, just maybe. I mean, her voice was everything, but you could tell it wasn't her singing.

All of a sudden, Don Jazzy turned my posh Arya Star into a full fledged agbero and got her screaming, "I go make you no dada, music sweet pass Amala Ketu".

I just lost hope after that.

I don't even want to talk about Rema.

This set of signees are the worst so far, not because they are not good artists, but because it seems Don Jazzy has given into the pressure of Nigerian mainstream media where "nonsense" sells.

But he should understand that songs like Amala Ketu can only reign for a short while and the song will be forgotten sooner than it reigned.

It's not what you like but what sells. Besides, he has a bunch of song writers I guess they probably wrote those songs. Everyone is trying to make hits anywhichway

Poor men are very wise at helping rich men manage their wealth with their poverty mindset.

Rich men are helping the poor men to be useful by using them for a profit.

The rich are called fools by the poor but the poor are serving the rich.

To be successful in the music business u have to be good with music itself and the business in the music. Don jazzy is good with music production which is his own expression of the art and the business side. Staying relevant and selling records is why they stay up all night in the studio recording while ur snoring in lala land. Wether u like it or not, it sells and appeals to people. If them no get target audience to supply Jazzy for done fold... so I believe he's doing a good job so far

Instead of you to make money, you are here talking trash about people that are making millions every week

It is always the poor people that know how to give advice pass. grin grin

Since you are a musical genius, why don't you make your own sensible songs or find talented artistes to manage better than donjazzy? Mumu man.

Rema recently broke the record for most streamed song by an African. His song was on billboard top 10 for weeks; Rema is managed by the same Donjazzy you are talking trash about

Arya starr's song Rush was performed by the United States army and still making raves across the world. The same Arya Starr is managed by Donjazzy

You are just a jobless broke fool.

Why are some of you like this? The OP gave his opinion, if you don't have a superior argument, you jejely leave the thread instead you resort to insult. Don't you realize that what makes a good artiste is the quality of his/her music? Any small thing we talk about money.

The people the songs are targeted at are not quality people and as such will not appreciate quality music. People singing quality music will never blow or even hit. It's trash music that sells and don jazzy needs to pay salaries and other overhead.

I mean check out the lyrics to this masterpiece, Enough.

You think you need something new
But I know that that’s not true
Why you moving in circles
When I give you beautiful
Until you jam trouble
Before you miss my wonderful
I put on the light in me
Hoping that one day you’ll see
I give you the best of me
Hoping that I’m all you need

But you waka waka
You k’inwuru mmanya
You bring out the doubts in me
I’m enough
One day you’ll see that I’m enough
I’m enough
I hope you realize that I’m enough


I’ll tell you true, I’ll tell you true
You make me doubt myself
The things you do, the things you do
I started to compare
That maybe I, I’m not rare
But that’s not fair
(Cause I) I put on the light in me
Hoping that one day you’ll see
I give you the best of me
Hoping that I’m all you need
But you waka waka
You k’inwuru mmanya
You bring out the doubts in me
I’m enough
One day you’ll see that I’m enough
I’m enough
I hope you realize that I’m enough
I put on the light in me
Hoping that one day you’ll see
I give you the best of me
Hoping that I’m all you need

I swear the average Nigerian will see success and think it’s failure. The mindset is just so trash. Yes people enjoy these songs to party and vibe too hence why their doing well.

For all his management skills more artists have faded under him than the ones that blew.
The whole marvin 2.0 class faded so fast we barely remember any of them.
This current crop is gradually fading with only Rema and ayra starr as genuine hitmakers.
Let's not talk about sudden disappearance of Dr sid, D prince,Koredo bello and co.

in the Nigerian music scene now there is a type of music that have a very strong international appeal ,which chike is not doing,he should learn from ckay victony and others.. that chike songs na only naija him go blow, if he is serious he should go the afro pop way,....before the markets were lagos alone, but ckay burna omah lay victony has shown you don't need lagos u just need international appeal and the world would stream ur songs and nigeria will bow at ur feet

What the hell is that?!

You spent months grooming your signees, only for them to release music that sounds like they recorded it under the influence of inferior alcohol, "shersee".

Look at Bayanna. You give her tatata, really? That's supposed to be a song?

I used to be so much in love with Arya Star.

Her Samaritan song was world class! Everybody around the world vibed to it.

Then, she released Rush. I was like, this is not Arya's style, but maybe, just maybe. I mean, her voice was everything, but you could tell it wasn't her singing.

All of a sudden, Don Jazzy turned my posh Arya Star into a full fledged agbero and got her screaming, "I go make you no dada, music sweet pass Amala Ketu".

I just lost hope after that.

I don't even want to talk about Rema.

This set of signees are the worst so far, not because they are not good artists, but because it seems Don Jazzy has given into the pressure of Nigerian mainstream media where "nonsense" sells.

But he should understand that songs like Amala Ketu can only reign for a short while and the song will be forgotten sooner than it reigned.


Thanks Op, you just said everything I would have said. Truth is ,hunger has literally pushed a lot of people into music lately, nobody cares about the talent and passion for it anymore, they just write shit , walk into the studios and fool themselves.. The so-called managers and label owners also have blood in their hands as they are just after their quick gains and fail to spot real talent and groom them... I don't think we have more that 10 nigerian artists that are truly talented. The rest sing absolute rubbish and hide their shit lyrics under the cover of some beats and call it 'vibe'.. The annoying part is millions of Nigerian youths still sing their praises and hype these Shit artists.

It just sucks really.
