so wise ,olamide , poco lee blows him , he can't ever deny it and you can rant I care not. Yes he sing nonsense ( eyin obo adugbo wa alone tell it all) how can someone record that in studio. "" The pussy in our area """and it called that a track .


Learn if you are willing
How?

You have not answered the simple question, How did olamide blow portable?

80% of hip hop lyrics is indecent, does that stop their song from becoming popular, or do you think only decent song should be allowed to blow.

Art is many form, its neither good nor bad, decent or indecent, you can express art in whatever way you want.

it’s not rigid , there’s no special way to sing, you express your art in whatever way gives you inspiration. Fela sings and perform in boxers does that makes his song nonsense.

Portable is from the street, he gets his inspiration from trenches, so he uses street slangs to express himself, you saying he sings nonsense because you consider his song indecent makes you an ignorant fellow.

Even if it will happen like that, it will take grace and favour to blow on your
own account. music is business.
Can’t you see you are contradicting yourself?

You are saying its grace and favour that will make you blow, in the same statement, you are saying it’s Record label and money.

If it’s just Record label and money that makes an artist, we will have thousands of Global artist by now.

Hence the reason you still have to respect those guys , they walk the ladder of success on their own account . It takes grace . Shatta wale sometimes have to organize journalist and pay them , pay for report article , do all sort of thing just to remain relevant . They have to pay for public notification in all sort .

We live in a globalized village , even olamide is into afropop now and he started with rap music. In today world , you must identify how to carry the crowd along ( you must ensure you keep the trending space ) the more they talk about you , the more you remain in the chart. You will even realized some artist went as far as organizing a sex tape just to remain in the lime light ( some may argue it is organizing that is indeed real) but what I knows is that the sex tape has keep some of them relevant . I know some of you deleted you bible apps just to download this very girl sex leaked video . the more trending , the more the business keep you.
I think your idea of success is different from ours...sark and shatta are not successful by Nigeria standard...shatta is mainly know in Ghana outside he is an upcoming art...sark is only relivant in Ghana ..I can't remember wen last his track was trending...temz without record deal is international.. being nominated for a grammy

simply by having his voice on his first tracks . The olamide side of sells him. And many people agree .

Now to the remaining wordings ( music should be a reflective of culture and lifestyle of a society) the more portable keeps producing such kind of street gems, it shows how the kind of the society he was brought up really looks . Tupac sings hardcore music but everyone of us grow up to love and admire his wealth of experience and wisdom in his track despite it being a hardcore . Tupac lyrics alone can be study at University level.

Fela with his stench smoke has a lot of wisdom to offer in his artistic kind of music. So being a street boy shouldn't relegate your voice to street language., Unless your audience are only to attract street urchins.

as far as Ghanaian are concerned, shatta wale and sark are very successful musicians , maybe not on the level of what you wanted from him as Nigerians Since many Nigeria artist have pushed more weight . And I gave you the reason , music has being hijacked by successful business record label in Nigeria . The more you can spend , the more viral and successful the artist will trend .

Black sheriff is working with a successful Nigeria record label hence the reason for his current success in Nigeria musical industry . Shatta wale is a lone soldier . Who remain very creative to remain in the industry .

Vaxx doesn't need to be dignified with further response, dude is just incoherent.

In his head, Nigerian artists are not self made while Ghanaian artists are self made, so Ghanaian artists should be more respected.

I doubt if he even know that most Nigerian artists are self made, in fact, the competition in our music industry is very stiff, it's either u go hard or go home. New music comes out almost every week, so to be relevant, u have to be on top of ur game. Very minimal number of Ghanaian artists can survive Nigerian music space, but I can vouch for king sark.

But the good thing about our music industry is that they collaborate a lot, they don't see each other as opposition, reason a top Nigerian artist can ask a new artist to bring his song for him to feature. They rarely beef.

As for international scene, we didn't just get there overnight, some artists paved the way through Akon around 2008 or so, then we began to feature international artists..... Now, international artists call Nigerian artists for feature, now we're here dragging international awards with international artists...

Now vaxx is blabbing.

Olamide jump on zazzu because it was a trending song, or you think olamide just decide to be featured on a random song from an unknown individual.

If it’s featuring that blow artist, then it’s burna that blow noncenbo(Jerusalema), and it’s also burna boy that blow and polish black sheriff grin

Stop trying to put art in a box.

Music is not anything, you can’t box art into whatever you want. Music is Art, Art is meant to be free, art is not reflective of any culture, that’s why a black man(Lil Nax) can jump on and create one of the biggest country music.

Most of Nigeria musicians are from poor background. Nigerian musicians are hustlers. They pushed their music carrier to the top level. If you promote your song very well, you will blow in Nigeria. Like you said, music is a business in Nigeria. If I get money I can feature any artist I want with my money and promote the song very well with my money. Bloggers will also help you after paying them. It's not about record labels bros.

I will never underrate Ghana, because I know you guys have talent.

But you can’t expect to compete globally by having a myopic view, do you know how many songs are released in a day? Up to 500,000 songs are released everyday around the world, if you want to compete in that to make your song stand out.

You need talent, hard work, creativity, originality and Money!!!

All of them are important!!
