Music/Radio › Re: Why Do African Artistes Find It Hard To Break Into The Nigerian Market? by baslone: 4:19pm On Feb 19, 2017

nkemdi89:
Even our own Nigerian, musicians have to come down from abuja, jos to Lagos before they can " blow", here in the east there are so many music making waves but they are heardly off in Lagos which is the entertainment capital, vice versa. That's why I don't blame gifty of bbn for not knowing banky and falz, she may have heard their song but won't know them especially that of falz who is popular in the west, unfortunately the tribalists started accusing her of being fake.

She no get dstv for her house? She no dey watch bigger friday show on MTV base?

Falz is an headliner be it anywhere. Concerts from lagos, uk to Cyprus, Awards from headies to AMVCA.

Popular in the west but could hit endorsement deals- From Heineken, merrybet, checkiNigeria, and Remi Martin.

No time for fake people!! At least no be westerner pen this project! She goofed abeg! Let it fly!

leaders? No you the citizens of Nigeria change your mindset. Where do the leaders comes from is it not from the citizens? It is shameful that, 90% of Nigeria population including you can't even think properly. If you read comments on Nairaland you will understand what I mean most times out of 200 comments the only reasonable ones will be less than 10. How can a country develop, when 90% of it's citizens cannot think right.

. . . . . . . . . and we keep blaming everything/everybody/every government but ourselves!

StupidYorubaFool:
all those states aforementioned are core north Hausa/Fulani states with sub tribes.. there is nothing like middle belt in Nigeria's constitution.

so stop deceiving yourself

Core north? Hausa/Fulani? What are you saying?

It seems you don't know why they are referred to as middle belt. - It's because the states are populated by minority ethnic groups and they also draw the line between the Islamic North and the mainly Christian south.

You claim there is nothing in the constitution like middle belt, yet you contradict yourself by Calling Edo State a middle belt state. Meanwhile, it really does not have to be in the constitution before they are referred to as such!

Atiku is a Fulani, IBB is not. If you have ever lived in the north, you'll know not all northerners are Hausa/Fulani.

Get some knowledge bro

Oga which one is middle belt again, what are you saying?? Nigeria is divided into 6 political zones, NIger State falls under North central Nigeria. The major tribes in Niger include Nupe, Gbagyi, Hausa, Fulani et al. So what are you saying that Niger state aint northern?
Theres nothing like middle belt in niger state... if u said kogi or probably edo state or even Abuja but certainly not Niger state.

Edo? Oga how nah? No dey spread false knowledge!

Middle belt states are Benue, Kogi, Kwara, Plateau, Taraba, Adamawa, Nasarawa as well as Niger State!

I know they have Hausa's as a tribe but not Fulani's. Both no be same thing.

Bless your soul, immediately after posting same reply, I saw yours.
They keep on saying 'eh, he all feed your generation like they know who is behind the moniker.
There are millionaires and multimillionaires in Nairaland, CEOs, Directors.
Nonsense. Yes, Tuface is doing well, but to some people, he is just managing.

Meanwhile, Tuface doesn't own Rumours, the owners are just using his image/brand to sell the club, while he gets a percentage

Una don start!

Who are the owners and What's really the big deal in owning a nightclub?

Dotun Omotoye broke off with his partners at The Place in Ikeja over financial issues.

He needed to ride on his own which gave birth to Rumours.

Dotun has been around since the days of Lacache, Londoners and He currently runs the Rumours as a co-owner and CEO. 2face knows nothing about running a club business but he actually just financed the business to hold a claim to his equity!

Kiss Daniel matter ehn... Now i believe our entertainers dey use juju and bad belle pursue each other. How can this guy be that good with several hits last year but still it seems he's not mainstream? Judging by the acceptance of his songs, this guy should be amongst the top 3 or at least top 5 big show headliners in Nigeria... But check it out, almost all the big shows don't have his name as a performer. And please... don't come at me with that pride goes before a fall bullshit. Tekno pride has no match, yet he's on most shows. There is more than meets the eyes.

No be any Juju, nah den dey do themselves.

The industry is more than making big hits. Yeah, I understand he is under some kind of
slave contract, nonetheless It's not by sitting on instagram all day watching time fly by.

He needs to find a way to stay in the news always(either positively or negatively). He needs
to get a good manager who will go out there to hunt for shows,concerts and endorsements.

If naija no work for am, he should look towards other African states, African communities in
Europe, Yankee for shows- e.g. Techno, Runtown, Whizkid, J.Martins, Wande Coal, Basketmouth, etc

MOst importantly, his team needs to stop over-rating him. When crowd movers like Reminisce,
9ice, Oritshafemi, Small doctor, CDQ amongst others were doing between N1M to N1.5M per appearance,
Kiss had just Woju and was already scaring people off with a tag of N2M per appearance.

The industry is saturated, that sum will get a Mayourkun, Sugarboy and Humblesmith with plenty change still left

Now that he has an album, I wonder how much he'l cost.

Thanks. Any other tips for a first time traveler?

Not a big deal if your papers are right. Just be watchfull of uniformed officials at Murtala Airport- they always take advantage of the nervousness of vigin passport holders.

Also note that it is none of their business if you have a yellow card or not. It's that of your host country

Hello, how do I go about getting the Yellow Card here in Nigeria. A friend of mine told me I would be issued one at the airport in Nairobi?

Is that so? Please respond as soon as possible.

The clinic is right beside the toll gate at the international airport. You can get it there.

I think its just N1,000.

Please do not use the touts in the airport oo! You will issued a fake and its very easy to detect when you get to Nairobi.

Yes because they have created an investment friendly atmosphere for their state with lots of input of foreign direct investment.

Tax free indeed? And you believe that?

Sports Pesa, Bet in amongst others are one of the biggest drivers in the private sector of your economy. They also single handedly sponsor your local football leagues, teams as well as your Rugby union.

It's good you are now painting the real picture of what the state of the nation looks like. I thought you meant you represent a perfect model.

I Also noted you stylishly faulting SportsPesa for wrong doings but you looking in the wrong direction.

How in the world wld a company( American and Bulgarians) move so much money just like that out of your system, even to the extent of using your money to sponsor Hull City FC, an English football team without any traces or being blocked?

Political patronage- Blame it on your corrupt ministers, govt officials and bad governance. Blame it on absence of management systems and procedures. You blaming the wrong set.

Now how does this make you different from any other African nation?

Just like we did in Ghana, Benin and Cameroun, The company has invested in their economy more than we have done in Federal Capital Territory with enough of their citizens under our payroll more than our own Ogun state. A lot of things that cant be discussed on a public forum- theirs is from the ministers, ambassadors to the normal dude on the streets.
