Raskimonojendor:You people use Lagos influence to deceive yourselves. Do you know that first indegenous rap album was recorded in Enugu by Massai (onye kwulu oto) .this was many years before Dagrin. Also Mr. Raw and Sloow Dogg were hits in igbo rap before yoruba rap. But I have seen many yorubas laying claims to be pioneers of indegenous rap 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Ritchiee:Read the interview. The interview said that the new technology of streaming platforms is helping yorubas catch up. Before then it used to be igbo controlled distributors and marketers. (Idumota Lagos, Iweka road Onitsha and pounds road Aba). You are just trying to catch up from long years of absolute Igbo domination by taking advantage of new streaming technology 17 Likes 3 Shares |

I don't even know why any sane person will dispute the fact that Nollywood was created by the Yorubas. Movies like the ones made by Baba Salah,Hubert Ogunde etc were watched in cinemas,on tv etc. It was from here that anything video or whatever began. Most things entertainment,arts etc started in the SW especially in Ibadan and Lagos. These are the best movies ever produced in Nigeria and they were all produced by Yorubas. https://www.transfergo.com/the-top-5-highest-grossing-nollywood-films-of-all-time 15 Likes |

Putinofrussia:You see your life? What happened to movies produced before grossing? I laugh at the list filled with recent movies. Why not list from the beginning of Nollywood and see that you are far from catching up? Secondly, it's not about first five or first ten, it's about the total. 7 Likes 1 Share |

igwebuike01:Aisha's revelation of the fact really peppered you and entered your body o . See how you are all over the thread and without shame, struggling hard to revise history set in facts with your lies and dubious definition of Nollywood. Hollywood is the term for the film industry of USA, same as Nollywood as the term for Nigeria film industry and Bollywood for the Indian film industry. You don't even know that Ibadan Yorubaland with the first TV in Africa is where Nollywood was first showcased to the world and not Lagos Yorubaland. You don't even know that most of those Nollywood star actors in Yoruba films like Odunade, Mr Latin etc don't even live in Lagos! 19 Likes 3 Shares

igwebuike01:lol I bet you are intelligent or you can at least pretend to be. Hollywood, Bollywood and others all over the world all started from cinemas then into videos and so on. There is a reason the world wouldn't forget the inventors of most tools we use today like cars,phones etc. In simple words,Yorubas invented Nollywood before you know what acting is all about.. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

igwebuike01:"Soji" by rasqui was already on the airwaves in 1999. And there were even other Yoruba rappers like Lord of Ajasa with "ma yi lo" released in 2000. And before those guys, there was AY - hard to survive/Eko si London was even around before year 2000.. 16 Likes 1 Share

The only earlier rappers of Ibo origin that I could think of were Junior and Pretty but they rapped in pidgin with some yorubas in their lyrics. |

igwebuike01:Lord of Ajasa, AY, Rasqie all rapped in Yoruba. They were rappers. Lord of Ajasa and AY rapped 100% in Yoruba. I don't know where you lived but these guys were popular Yoruba rappers in the late 90s. And like I mentioned earlier, junior and pretty rapped as well but they rapped in pidgin and added Yoruba to it like in their track "bolanle" . 16 Likes 2 Shares |

igwebuike01:Why don't you post a list to contradict the one posted? Nowhere can you see a list of the best movies in Nigeria that Igbos will have even 20 out of 200 but you will see the one that Yorubas will pick 170 or more out of 200. They are the owners and pioneers of arts,movies etc in Nigeria. The Afrobeat created by the Yorubas is what what is making waves even abroad now. The problem with you Igbos is you are too emotional to accept that Yorubas are your benefactors,helpers and senior brother in achievements.. I don't want to use superior because it sounds demeaning. You are lucky that you have somebody..a people..that you are looking up to and trying to catch up with in Africa cohabiting with you in Nigeria. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

igwebuike01:You are confused. Idris started rap his broken English rap also around 99/2000. You are jumping around like an headless chicken. 1st you said indigenous, I gave you indigenous, now you have gone to broken English rap. Rugged man is a baby that came much later with his American style copy type of rap. Even at that, da tribes were earlier than rugged man when it comes to American copy style of rap.
