[quote author=Mykel51 post=100152045][/quote]Sean tizzle dammy krane or whoever they are, they are not the only failed musicians, many many musicians in the same category failed. Burna boy, wizkid davido tekno tiwa savage patoranking run Town kiss Daniel etc succeeded |
flokii:nairaland Yoruba elites, Weldon lol leave Lagos go and develop your capital Ibadan Lagos is no man's land |
laiperi:a man who founded bigotry tribal hate even before Nigeria was born, is that one fit to be president? |
Mykel51:as long as Nigerian music is concerned, those that came before burna laid the Nigerian music foundation he only built on it, back then on every radio station, TV station, night clubs Barbers shops, the only music they played was American Hiphop, Jamaican reggae, makossa music, and some old highlife music, there was nothing like afro Hiphop or anything new in Nigerian music , till young musicians like plantation Boyz , African China, p square, nigga raw danfo drivers the mo hit crew 9ice rugged man, da green sound Sultan etc changed the narrative, where was burna boy from 1999 to 2010 when all these Nigerian musicians worked hard to put Nigerian music on the world map, ? Nigerian music was recognized through them, that was when MTV had to create MTV base for African musicians, BET, Chanel O etc started playing Nigerian songs, Nigerian music dominated through them , American musicians started having concerts in Nigeria , burna boy was never during these period burna boy wizkid davido tekno tiwa savage patoranking run Town etc are in the same category of the new musicians who built on the foundation that was already laid there is nothing to debate on this |
FalseProphet1:even if that local government is his father's land, he will never make that mistake of allocating to Fulani, stop seeing things in igbo land, turn your eyes South West, the things you will see, will make your eyes bleed |
Redcrafton:tribalism started with Nigerian leaders, Nigeria practice tribalism in every aspect , jobs, politics, education, etc |
Ganjafama:just like Evans and Invictus obi were celebrated without tribe right? |
Tannhauser:and Anthony Joshua is Nigeria ? |
streetsoldier1:Yoruba culture is different from igbo culture, if (chest beating) as you call it, it's a problem in Yoruba culture, it's not in igbo culture, learn to accept other people's culture |
Mykel51:false information, I repeat those that came before burna laid the foundation he only built on it, simple |
Mykel51:Burna boy got no where with his original style of music, till he changed his style and started sampling fela, sunny ade, featuring Nigerian artist like 2face , wizkid, timaya etc that was when he became known in the industry I still repeat my point Nigerian musicians who came before burna laid the foundation both home and abroad he only built on it, he only came at the right time after other musicians before him worked to get Nigerian music recognized internationally He worked hard for it, I'm not disputing that fact, but fact still remains, he only built on the foundation that was laid by those who came before him Nigerian musicians were already winning international awards before he came, to proof Nigerian music already gained international recognition, burna came from behind to win the biggest of them |

ivandragon:Pray for the unknown gun men the way you prayed for Nigerian army Even a goat bites if you beat it constantly |
Igbo amaka This thread could have reached 50 pages if it was something bad |
ivandragon:And the Nigerian Army who killed and raped innocent women in obigbo are your hero's? |
IPOBTERRORISTS:Pray harder my friend, looks like your god is sleeping Nigerian Army bleeds just like those unknown gun men ![]() |
IPOBTERRORISTS:This statement is getting old ![]() The Nigerian Army that I know only kill unarmed peaceful protesters no one will shout amnesty anymore amnesty International is as useless as Buhari, |
JovialJune:that's an ikwerre name my friend |
JovialJune:no the future is ikwerre run away slaves from bini kingdom |
case of natural selection |
Mykel51:I'm not pained, there is nothing there to feel embittered about, I only pointed out that those who came before burna laid the Nigerian music foundation both home and abroad burna only built on it , and his style of music is still under the fela afro beat he hasn't ditched it completely like you said go and listen to burna boys original style of music before he changed , songs like, ( all eyes on me) , (Like to party ) etc that was his original style , he was hanging out with South African artist and those songs got him no where till he switched afro beat |
gabazin080:why do they usually use hot knifes on their hands? I remember back in my primary school days in Jos, our class teachers money was missing, everyone denied stealing the money till the whole class was about to be punished, they started beating us one by one, till one female teacher from the next class intervened , she looked round, and called out one little girl called Tope took her outside the class, about 5 minutes later she returned with Tope with the stolen money she said tope is her neighbor's child, she has the problem of stealing, her parents did everything to make her stop but couldn't, she showed us scars of wounds inflicted on her with hot knifes and razor blades and tope was a very beautiful quiet girl, she lacked nothing in her house cause her parents weren't poor, our primary school was one of the most expensive private primary schools in that area, she lacked nothing |
Anigreat:Nigerian politicians steal enough money to last them for generations Aisha will take care of Buharis house when he dies, they have invested the stolen wealth well |
Mykel51:I still stand by my point, Nigerian musicians that came before him cleared the land laid the foundation and burna boy built on it, he didn't build his own foundation, even his style of music is influenced by fela's music, his ever first album had features from 2face , wizkid and a host of other Nigerian musicians, he used to give fela credit initially till he became famous and proud |
Mykel51:the fact still remains those that came before him, already made Nigerian music popular in the Western world before he came, big names like 2face , Dbanj, sound Sultan, p square , etc laid the foundation, his music career is not up to 10 yrs, he only built on the already recognized Nigerian music , he is just too proud to say nice things about Nigerian music in general, he came into the game at the height of Nigerian music international recognition |
Mykel51:burna boy didn't win the Grammy only on the account of this singular album remember he was nominated for Grammy previously on the other album and won other international awards in the past, that's not even the point the point is his style of music is heavily influenced by the great fela , and those that came before him, actually put Nigerian music on international recognition making it easy for musicians like him to be recognized quickly , he didn't lay the foundation from scratch |
truth is a lot of Nigerian musicians that came before Burna boy actually cleared the land laid the foundation and burna only built on it, he samples Fela's beats and songs a lot, I will say if fela's kids had worked as hard as Bob Marley's kids worked to fellow their fathers footsteps, they could have won multiple Grammys by now just like Bob Marley's kids burna boys mom and grand father who both worked with fela contributed a lot to burna boys success |
FrLukas:nothing like ojukwu paying Forsyth Rather Forsyth resigned from his well paying job as a British journalist to report an unbiased account of what was really happening in biafra , cause BBC was reporting in favour of Nigeria, denying food blockade, denying asaba massacre, framing igbos of forcing minorities into biafra etc , how much was ojukwu paying Forsyth when he lacked money to buy weapons and food? how about adewale's book title why we struck? he was one of the coup plotters is he igbo? did he say they planned an igbo agenda coup in his book? counter facts with facts stop spreading false information on topics you no nothing about |
FrLukas:I'm not expecting you to believe me, cause it's obvious you know nothing about this topic of coup/biafran civil war you are discussing blindly there are many books but I will recommend one for you written by Frederick Forsyth one of the British journalist who covered everything about the coup and biafra, in his book The Biafran story |
FrLukas:you have nothing to counter the true historic account I just gave about the coup and the aftermath the reason why the biafran civil war history was never taught in school, is to keep people like you in the dark, so you could wake up one morning and write a false history go and read books about biafra, stop depending on false Wikipedia articles |
FrLukas:false history, nzeogwu led a group of soldiers from the army college in Kaduna to the sarduana's house all those soldiers with him that day were northern soldiers from core north and middle belt, if it was an igbo Agenda why did the northerners follow nzeogwu to kill sarduana? learn your history well the whole Nigeria Jubilated especially the northerners, Lt col Kastina appeared on multiple live radio broadcast with nzeogwu addressing the nation about the coup and gave nzeogwu his support it was after some media propagandist bigots from South West started tagging it and igbo agenda coup that turned it negative against the igbo, forgetting that northerners middle belt and South West was part of that coup and it was even a failed coup stopped by an igbo ironsi there was no massacre in the East the northerners were sent home under police escort ojukwu made sure of that, even when the igbos stopped the train that was taken northerners home they couldn't do them any harm cause they were protected under police escort, bodies floating on niger river were all igbos killed and dumped in the river all the way from river Benue down to niger river learn your history |
