afam4eva: I'm doing my own part. But our musicians are the ones that are seen and heard by millionaires and their influence can go a long way.

WildOne: Why did D'banj sing in Igbo?

afam4eva: I never said it's the job of musicians to save a language, but they can help to a measurable extent since they are a member of the group.

rapjunkie: I don't see the big deal. I know Yoruba people who use igbo words all the time and igbo guys who use yoruba words. I think if you are trying to go national, and not just appeal to your own tribe then its a smart move to try and make other tribes identify with your songs. That can be done in pidgin but could appeal to people more if you make the effort to commuincate in their own language.

I know that d'banj's stock increased  in Eastern Nigeria when he did the track 'igwe'

However, i think that igbo artist's  who think the only way they can get ahead in Lagos is to sing in yoruba are greatly mistaken. If your track is wack then singin the chorus in yoruba will not save it.

Just keep it real. If you want to sing in yoruba ( or another language) , fine, but also remember to lace some tracks in your own language so you don't alienate your own people.

my 2.5 cents

plz do list the Yoruba artist that use igbo mostly in their music like their igbo counterparts do to Yoruba. plz do not say d'banj, cuz he is the only excuse u guyz have. there is more than a handful of igbos that speak Yoruba but what about the Yorubas?
