morpheus24: Hence the cheaper production cost. A 1 million dollar video shoot would get better quality and return if shot in SA, simple mathematical conclusion, in economics its called taking advantage of a comparative advantage.
I will let you pass on the above comment above seeing that you don't own and international passport and have probably never flown pass the Limpopo your answers will be based on your limited expanse of knowledge.
Videos can be shot in exclusive locations and only those that want to portray some sort of street cred would require shooting in the hood where area boyz patrol
As for Boko Haram, they are way up in the north and videos are rarely shot up there because the music industries base is in the south but you wouldn't know that either. Nigeria is just a jumbled up mess of 180 million people in your myopic view.
We keep coming back to this bleaching skin phenomena. This is a cultural phenomena perculiar to Southern Nigerians as fairness is seen a thing of beauty within a couple of southern cultures. it has nothing to do with trying to look like white people. You would know this if you have ever visited Nigeria.
We have naturally fair skinned people mostly from a specific ethnic group in this country as well induced by genetic disposition. The weather only smoothens out skin and does not cause it to be permanently fair, you just loose vitamin d that reduces the amount of melanin at certain periods of the year when the sun is not intense. YOur fair skin is very likely an inherited trait from interbreed with the lighter skinned African Khoi and San.
Nguni peoples are actually naturally darker skinned as is evident in the Matbele people of Zimbabwe who are a subset of this group that did not travel further into SOuth Africa an intermingle.
So even in the US is cheap? some of your videos are shot there,is it for the same reason you shoot in SA? cheaper production?...you Nigerians always like to shield your inferiority complex with lengthy and unnecessary explanation.The reason you shoot your videos outside Nigeria is because you hate your own country and love everything foreign.
Then how do you explain why you became the bleaching capital?
morpheus24: Colonized is a strong connotation to describe the above. I would say you entertained us and added to the already array of Nigerian artist during that era including King sonny Ade, Shina peters, Oritz Wilike, Majek Fashek, Christy Essien Igbokwe and the likes who were contemporaries of the people you mention above so please get your history straight.
HAHAHAHA!
You remove burner from the collabo he did with AKA and the song is a dud, dead on arrival, a waste of space. He was an up an coming artist who did AKA a favor and put him on the map outside of South Africa, otherwise compare both artists body of work and you will be silenced.
Please listen to the song again and listen to AKA's part, weak lyrics all through,could be replaced by any other rapper and song still be good.
3. The weather in Southern Africa is a consequence of tectonic shifts in the earth which creates higher elevations and thus a more temperate climate away from the equator, it has no bearing on the features of your face.
1.The reason Nigerians shoot their videos here is because Nigeria doesn't have a conducive infrastructure for videos plus area boys that patrol your streets want their cut too and not forgetting that they can't find sexy video vixens oh and who would shoot a video in peace with murderers like boko Haram and fulanis roaming the streets.
2.At least everything remains 100% South African.realise they don't bleach their skins like your hippos?
3.The point I was making is that we have naturally fair skin women because of the cool weather unlike your lizards that bleach their skins to the bone to look white
morpheus24: The real reason you don't know burner boy's international clout is because your culture minister is trying to undo the damage Apartheid did on your brains where you were forced to worship everything that wasn't "South African" so that resistant spirit is still very much alive in your psyche and so you will deny Oluwa burner.
PS AKA is a washed up Chris brown/Kendrick lamar wanna be with not originality and no niche in his genre of music. He just has a loud ego and uses that to stay relevant otherwise his body of work is laughable and if presented outside of the country would rank very low.
We must always tell the truth and shame the Devil eh!
For many years we colonised Nigerian airways with our Lucky Dube,Hugh Masekela,Brenda Fassie,Yvonne Chaka, etc and you claim we weren't appreciative of our SA musicians? You are a keyboard jester.
Burna Boy's 15 seconds of fame is courtesy of AKA having a kind heart to house him in South Africa and eventually featuring him on a song,that's how we got to know him.Lol if anything you people are the ones trying to take back all those years you wasted listening to South African music while yours were completely unknown in SA.
morpheus24: You are talking about your half breeds in the cape not your Lerato's from Free state so stop deceiving people here.
Yes it makes so much sense cause the girls in the videos are mixed race and not khoi-bantus with over grown back sides, pencil heads, deep epicanthal eye folds,short statue and "kaffir hair" that is the worst of textures as far as black hair is concerned.
Stop the decision fana!
Most of the girls in those videos are pure black,not our fault that your country wasn't blessed with the best weather like SA.And I have noticed that you not denying that your artists are running away from their ugly oloshos,sometimes they even fly to Jamaica to shoot with better looking video vixens.
IronGalaxy: Bro, the obsession is real, they even make threads about some the most banal things about South Africa, just so they can come here and talk trash about us. Have you ever scrolled down on the topics and find something about Burundi? It's always " a South African man this" South Africa this, South Africa that etc
JEALOUSY & ENVY,our brodas always quiver with uncontrollable envy when SA is mentioned.The frustration of knowing you were born in Nigeria and you are going to die Nigerian no be child's play ooo.They are officially the poverty capital of the world.
edon21: SHUT THE FCK UP. CAN'T COMPARE AKA TO BURNA. BURNA IS MORE POPULAR, MORE INFLUENTIAL, RICHER THAN NONSENSE AKA. BURNA BOY FEATURES THE BEST INTERNATIONAL ACTS. WHERE WAS AKA WHEN BEYONCE PICKED BURNA. BURNA TOPPED THE CHART OF MANY COUNTRIES INCLUDING SOUTH AFRICA WITH HIS ALBUM. WHO KNOWS AKA IN AFRICA OR EVEN INTERNATIONALLY. SO WHAT D HELL ARE YOU SAYING
I don't count other men's pockets for a living so I would not know who's richer than who,in fact I don't give a damn.I just like the fact that our artists can make millions in their home country without performaning beyond borders,we take pride in ourselves before seeking validation elsewhere.Beyonce's name ain't what it used to be so doing a song with her is no longer worth getting your dìck hard for.And another thing,Burna boy never topped charts in SA.
NOETHNICITY: Yet, I and many others the world over, do not even know the name of any SA artist since Lucky Dube
The world does.Nigeria doesn't count,you don't even see our artists marketing their music towards your direction or yearning to perform in Nigeria.Check the Black Panther official soundtrack you'll hear South African music play in the background every minute.Nigeria doesn't exist to us lol
IronGalaxy: Nigerians are beyond ignorant,if this forum is anything to go by,and they seem quite proud of their ignorance.do you even think they know Sway?lol
Well they don't know what hip hop is so I'm willing to bet my last coin they never even heard the name "Sway"
Madaraa1: leave those guyz alone AKA that has been performing live on stage with kendrick lamar since way back all these village people nor know na to ask google when go bring only their location news come
godofuck231: South Africa wouldn't have existed without Nigeria, they wouldnt have a name without Nigeria, as the giant of Africa we have a musical giant of Africa, aka should hide his face burner boys legacy covers all in south Africa, shout out to the lyrical afro beat king of our time .
Some people literally live in dreamland.it's quite shocking.
Every African countries have their ethnic conflicts. https://m.news24.com/MyNews24/Ethnic-war-20130308 As you can see, your house is burning but all you care about is the bellowing from a distance neighbour's house.
You lots should count it a privilege that the best artist in Africa deemed it fit to perform at a low life concert along with some mediocre artists from SA. The money was so minute, he decided to give it out- punder on that.
Ethnic conflicts in South Africa? Kaduna alones trumps the whole Africa combined.
Burna Boy may be the best in your tiny habitat and it's neighbouring villages but to us he's an afterthought,in fact if it wasn't for AKA that was kind enough to do a song with him we wouldn't even who the fvck he is.
Stop over rating your untalented "musicians" who hide their unintelligible screamings behind technology (auto tune)
SeyeMan: You could have googled a little, before posting untruths about what you dont know about. I will respond to your lies:
1. SA is crime ridden. You wonder why Lucky Dube got killed in a car jacking attack? Their rape industry has been second to none in the whole world for years.
2. Drug trafficking and thrives in SA.
Show us where he lied
I don't know if you live under a rock but your country is numero uno when it comes to child marriages (basically raping of toddlers)
SUFFERInSMILIIN: I have say this for beginning from Time And Memory the problem with Nigerians is there are illiterate. As a Nigerian I will confess to this. Most Nigerians live in dreamland and believe Nigeria is the centre of the universe only when they leave the country they find out that Nigerians are regarded as criminals. The next thing Nigerian start doing fulling themselves.. if they want to insult me let them come I will bury them. It has gotten to the stage that Nigerian president and Nigerian Embassy know that Nigerians abroad are criminals..
My Brother may God bless you for these facts.We know the truth make an average Nigerian's skin melt away like a vampire in the sunlight.let them unleash their fury,it won't change zilch for them.
morpheus24: Eh my Bro the only thing going for SOuthie women is Nyash and hour glass shape. If you look at the face of the average SA girl it looks like a cross between a Khoi woman and a Big foreheaded kenyan.
You and I both know even you don't believe the words coming out of your own mouth.South African women are all-rounders.
Best feminine features - check Nicely shaped heads - check Beautiful skins - check
IronGalaxy: Lol, you wrote this novel of insults all because I have a preference, and that preference is not Nigerian women. ? Ha ha
Brah,a whole essay about how classy Nigerian women are and how they won't even look at a South African man yet there's no brothel in this world without Nigerian prostitutes in it.
