"Nollywood script" Witches, wizards and whatnot are issues associated with our culture. Hunting, palmwine drinking, spiritual children, magun and so on..... That's who we are... It's these "local" stories that attract foreigners who are always looking for new things to learn
Dis is d same issue with Nigerian movies where we the viewers pressurise them to go "urban" and they end up messing up.
We don't have to switch out subjects and themes of witchcRafT, spiritual influences and so on.
It's who we are
Americans write about espIonage, cIA, space ships and so on because it's their way of life...
the topic of writing or issues covered shouldn't be an excuse for ignoring African writers.
It's a lame excuse... so lame.....
No wonder every generation is "lamer" than the former ..

Celebrities › Re: "One Dance" Track Info Proves Wizkid Wrote And Co-produced It by highzeek94: 10:03am On Jun 27, 2016 |
Helkayklassic: Wizkid own this track no doubt. Drake won't wanna make a song and think of Dj Maphorisa co-producing his track. Sarz on the other hand did a lot of work on the track. I still think is a win-win for him and Drake. Just like what Davido did for Runtown on Gallardo and Runtown pay back with Aye. What a Theory.. lol... WizKid own this track? Why the desperation to see that wizkid played a prominent role?... Wizkid was on the song... end of storY If the song wins grammy... dey all will walk out to collect the statue... if they're around..... |
