How on earth did this crap make Front Page? A primary 4 pupil would come up with a better write-up. Terrible spelling and grammar, blatant disregard for punctuation, not to mention the lies and misinformation peddled in that article.

The OP is clearly only interested in stoking the flames of the Naija-Ghana rivalry, with his baseless assertions and I'm not surprised by the replies.

None of these guys owe their success to the Nigerian public. Not even Black Sheriff, who Nigerians feel they 'made' him. The music market doesn't start and end with Nigeria. Y'all need to stop with the messiah complex. No be so una cancel Mr Eazi. How did that turn out?

Iceprince was legendary but he fell off

Bro, mid-2010's Ice was a monster. It breaks my heart when I see these Gen Z kids disrespect him. At his peak, he was the hottest rapper in the industry. Even M.I gats shift for am. He was one of the first Nigerian artistes to actually go international. This guy was chilling with Jay Z! Every track he jumped on, he killed it. Oleku, Superstar, Aboki, Juju, N-word, just to name a few.

It's a pity he didn't keep the fire burning for long. Rumor had it he was in a serious relationship with one babe and that one cheated on him and the whole break-up thing affected him in a way. He's stiil got it though, dropping some nice jams these last couple of years. 'Make up your mind' ft Tekno and 'Kolo' with Oxlade are great tunes.

Chicken wey dey crow for morning, or birds wey dey chirp or tweet for morning, get better rhythm pass seyi vibez and odumodu.

Odumodu is a future manager or AnR. If I be upcoming, I go meet odumodu make he manage me, he get that skills, and even get the ears for good music, but him no fit personally do good music.
Odumodu is just tolerated because igbos no currently get representation on the music scene, we no get the new current musicians like tekno, p square, and of course phyno. So, we dey manage odumodu.

seyi vibez, no level. That one na musician entourage. No be musician. Even Jago worst song sweet pass seyi vibez best song.

When skills and serious musicians, whole package musicians, people wey dey really do music, are involved, odumodu or semi vibez, neva make that list yet. Those ones just want fame, and know how to force themselves on to the camera. Them get social media abi na influcer skills, more than musical skills.

Odumodu and seyi vibes shouldn't be encouraged with their unskilled music, until they get serious. Encouraging rubbish music is why reggae and rap music lost their influence worldwide. Naija music is a feel good and happy music. It replaced rnb, rap, and reggae music, combined. If you loose it due to mediocrity, it might not come back around anytime soon. If you snooze you loose, in this music scene.


zino is a skilled musician. Na small thing wey ruger use better pass zino. But they are good musicians. Of course, Burna, Omah lay, rema, etc, are skilled musicians. But we shouldn't accept mediocrity from them either.

Well said, bro. Nigerian music has gone global and there should be a standard to the quality of music we put out. Afrobeats is the toast of the music world rn. It's taken us a while to get here but we could easily just get swatted aside like many genres before us.

It's on us as fans to demand quality from our artistes. Not swallowing whatever half baked rubbish they churn out in the name of music. If you can't match up, hit the studio and work harder or just go home. We don't need every Tunde, Dozie and Haruna making noise, calling it music. Any artiste worth his salt would always hone his craft and look to get better. Nigerian music can only make it to the next level when there is a strong critique culture. Else these guys go just dey take us for zombies and keep feeding us garbage.

I think you are being harsh on Odumudu, even though I agree with your submission on Seyi Vibez who I think is overrated. I'm also surprised you conspicuously left out Shallipopi. I'm not one to knock or hate on another man's hustle but the truth has to be told; that boy no sabi anything. He is just a product of social media, heavy PR and some seriously strong Evian. That someone like that is 'making waves' says a lot about our taste in music in Nigeria. The Nigerian listener is the biggest problem, particularly the Gen Z demographic. Those ones have questionable taste in music and their ADHD issues inhibits them from being able to appreciate or enjoy good music. Unfortunately, they are the biggest consumers with their social media presence and streaming power.

I laugh when I hear niggaz compare Seyi Vibez to Zino. Where do we even start from? The same Seyi Vibez with his lame lyrics and haphazard flow. Seyi Vibez wey no even get talent reach T.I Blaze or Balloranking. Zino would bury him in a hits-for-hits battle.

Nothing has changed about the lying criminal we know his type from those when harm touches them they beg for mercy pretending to have amend their ways.

Make una dey calm down for unaself sha. This religious angle you are both taking on this conflict is starting to overshadow much more important things such as the humanity of those involved.

"Please.

If I have ever at one point insulted you, insult your tribe, parents and siblings.. or insult you for your gender...

Please FORGIVE ME!!!

I deeply regret and remorseful for my actions."
I hope in your sober moments you won't be here seeking forgiveness for justifying certain actions, well some don't learn from their own history

Lol. The above quote was Emaprince's version of Saul's encounter on the road to Damascus. Whatever it was that happened that day must have been truly life-changing. The old Ema was an annoying, toxic douchebag for the most times. Always temperamental and quick to insult people. You could barely hold a civil discussion with this nigga. Whenever I read his posts these days, I'm surprised as to how much he's changed. He is much more mature even if the old ways still surface from time to time e.g his fight with , but even then it's a long way from how he used to be.

JUDE BELLINGHAM'DOR! JUDE BELLINGHAM'DOR! JUDE BELLINGHAM'DOR!

He is surely the favourite to win the Balon D'or next year as He is currently the World Best player(Top 2 at worst). Hopefully He stays fit and does not suffer any major injuries as I see atleast 3 Balon D'ors on the horizon for this Magnificent Young Superstar. The best Young footballer the world has seen since one Kylian Mbappe burst onto the scene a few years ago.

Speaking of Youngsters, with this performance He has separated himself from the Pedri,Gavi,Musiala,Camavinga(plus any additional names)et als of this world. This dude is incredible.

It's too early to say to he will win the Ballon d'or, IMO. The Ballon d'or is not won in October. Remember Salah's red hot streak in the first half of the 2021/22 season? He didn't even make the top 3 that year. But I agree Jude is the leading contender.

This season is Bellingham's best chance of winning the Ballon d'or. Once Mbappe joins this Madrid team next season, na him go carry all the Ballon d'ors wey go come their side. There can only be one King.

Omo, so Davido never settle Dammy since? This is not the first time Dammy Krane has called him out over this money issue. Country hard, give a brotherman his entitlement, Bashiru.

But Davido na O.B.O nau, wetin be this onigbese vibes wey dey follow am around lately. Amaju money wey e chop, e never refund that one, still get mind dey dish out threats on top. Classless behaviour from a supposed megastar.
