Music/Radio / Join Me In Making This Musical Idea A Real Business by macquis(m): 6:08pm On Apr 07, 2016
In a country where getting a lucrative job is hard to come by this days, brainstorming to think up ideas with mouth-watering potentials becomes the next option for folks who are success-driven. Am a serving youth Corper and will be discharged from service in a week's time. Thoughts of life after service has kept me bothered for sometime now until yesterday. You know that feeling one gets when an idea worth a million dollars drops into one's radar of consciousness ? Well, it's the same feeling I got with the musical idea that came to me. The issue there is I need someone with the same musical passion as myself or even better, someone who's updated about African music as well as world music, one who knows what's going on the radio as regards music, a computer literate who frequently visits the Internet, and least of all, one who resides in Lagos. I'll present an analogy to buttress my point: An ordinary man goes to his farm, while working, his digger comes in contact with something hard. He's entranced, so he picks up his shovel to discover what solid material could be disrupting his digging. To his uttermost delight he discovers that the solid material hidden within his piece of land is pure gold. He understands he can't mine it alone so he seeks support. Am sorry but I can't unveil the said idea on Nairaland. If you are interested this are my contacts: 07032021769, macquisudochukwu@gmail.com. Please reach out to me so we can discuss.

Judging from the lookof things these days... The common audience wants these kind of music..As a musician,you have to satisfy them to stay relevant like the dude above me said#..I am a producer/artiste.Most time when I produce for people I keep it in mind tha the current state of music here requires a slang tha you can remember easily..its not s'pposed to be so...There are cool songs tha speak wise words and satisfaction but how many love those songs today? One in Hundreds of Thousands...let's just hope the wind blows a different tune...#Rhythmz on tha beat

Rhythms are u based in Lagos ? Cuz its likely I'd b doing a recording very soon. I need a good producer, one who's knowledgeable musically and is also good with the instruments.

It is only in Nigeria Paul feyerabends philosophy of "anything goes is adopted". To tell yall the truth am sick and tired of putting on my radio only to hear crap music issuing out of my speakers. Nigerian music is sick and rotten, and we the youths are the only ones to able administer the proper medications to revive good music in Nigeria. Our artistes must wake up to their responsibilities and stop producing meaningless songs.
Music/Radio / Where Is Our Music Industry Headed To ? by macquis(m): 10:01am On Oct 11, 2015
Etcetera has to say... “Shokihey hey Shoki!” cries a voice from the radio to the beat of a nerve-wracking pandemonium that seems designed to drive you insane. Even Fashola does the Shoki dance! A quick flick of the dial and “Shakiti bobo” is playing. The worse thing is that the raucous noise emitted by the artiste is no match for the loud, odious din coming from the beat. The lyrics are completely lost – which may not be regrettable to some – but the whole tumult sounds more like bad static than music. I tuned the dial again. This time it wasOlamidescreaming “VANESSA VANESSA.” As the last strains of the song died away, the OAP cheerfully and enthusiastically breaks in, “Yes, that’s for all you listeners out there. That’s the way we do it right here at your cool station. We personalise our playlist to make you feel cool.” Cool kor, cooler ni…. I felt like telling the OAP that his choice of songs made me feel SICK. This is simply today’s Nigerian music! Something is terribly WRONG with it! Yet millions around the country – especially the young people – listen to it by the hour. WHY? What is there about this music that is so gripping? How can something so meaningless hold millions under its spell? Why does it serve as a common denominator – as “the tie that binds” – for so many youths? Judging from how and what they’re saying and singing, it is easy to conclude that some of these artistes should be taken for mental evaluation! Music mirrors our emotions; it reflects our thoughts; it echoes our activities – it shows us the way we really ARE! Most Nigerian artistes are confused and bewildered – or they wouldn’t sing songs about not being able to tell right from wrong, or songs which purposely don’t say or mean anything, or which try only to “embody an emotional state that points indirectly to marijuana and crazy sex positions.” Music – just like other forms of art – is like a social barometer. A strong and healthy society produces dynamic and stimulating music; a diseased and decaying society produces sick and decadent music. It’s a simple matter of cause and effect! This is now a SICK SOCIETY and, therefore, it produces SICK MUSIC. It’s just that simple! Both parents and the young people are to blame. My point is, we all don’t have to be a part of this sick society – or its sick music. Even talking about today’s gospel songs, many are lacking in purpose and quality. The gospel singers are forgetting that God believes in QUALITY. Look at the universe He created! He also believes in human improvement and GROWTH. “Become ye therefore perfect” (Matt. 5:48) and “Grow in grace and knowledge” (II Pet. 3:18), He commands. God wants His people to grow in the right kind of culture – the right kind of appreciation for the finer things in life. He says that mature Christians are “those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to DISCERN both good and evil” (Heb. 5:14). God wants us to EXERCISE our five physical senses. He wants us to learn what the true values for the enjoyment of the senses are. One of these senses is hearing. And one of the ways we need to exercise our hearing sense is in the appreciation of quality music. Quality in music involves, first of all, the way it is composed or arranged. Secondly, it involves how the music is performed. And thirdly, the setting (the place and occasion) in which the music is heard. You attend a concert only to see artistes with a hodgepodge of idiotic noise played from a CD and the audience seated at round tables like they are in a canteen, screaming with mouthful of small chops and ‘samosas’ as every new song is introduced by the performer. What utter nonsense! What is WRONG with us? How did we completely lose our sense of value regarding music? Do we even know the purpose of music? A mother justifies her daughter who’s listening to an obscene song by saying, “If you listen to the words of that one, it’s pretty rough. But it has a real good beat. My daughter says she doesn’t pay any attention to the words anyway.” Are we really that naïve? What erroneous reasoning! Go along with the crowd – even if the crowd is on the way to suffering, misery, pain, extinction? Do we think that these songs have no part in the tidal wave of promiscuity, venereal disease, illegitimate babies that are all over the country today? If you are one of those who like today’sNaija music, you ought to honestly and truthfully ask yourself WHY.

[quote author=mamziii post=38488664]I really wonder wat pple get from taking beer and alcohol, days ago a friend made me take a tumbler of bottled origin,and mennnnnn 2say I misbehaved was an understatement,am neva going near beeR or alcohol again.[/quot

U know, the thought of what people gained from consuming alcohol is what led me to patronise the bar. I've tasted alcohol and I can say alcohol is bullshit. I wonder why a great many youths and adults get tangled up in that shit to the extent of it ruining their live, career, marriage and relationships. The whole issh is still a mystery to me. If people get addicted to alcohol and nicotine I wonder why I dint get addicted to both.

Food / How Many Bottles Of Beer Gets You High ? by macquis(m): 11:31pm On Sep 27, 2015
Being a curios person by nature I always wondered why people consumed beer(alcohol). I asked many beer drinkers questions on the effects of alcohol and most of them opened up and explained to me alcohol made its consumer high. I longed to experience that heightened state of consciousness many alcohol drinkers attested to and so one evening I went to the bar and ordered for 4 bottles of star. Only to find out that after gulping down all that beer I remained the man I earlier was when I walked into the bar, no highness. A colleague of mine who sat on the same table with me took just 3 bottles and went completely gaga.
