GoodLife4live:You are not understanding me. There were igbo raps in the 90s before AY but unknown to yorubas that's why they think AY started before others. in this present generation, some lay claim to Dagrin as first because they don't know about Massai who was a hit in the SE and SS. You always use what happened around Lagos as the first. That's my point |

LagosPrince:Don't just bring Igbo at all into this early history matter at all...even south south actors and actresses out performed the Igbo in d movie industry. Early actors from 1960, 1970 and 1980 were majorly Yorubas. It was the Igbo that migrated to the South West and Lagos that created Nigerian movie awareness for the Igbos in villages. 2 Likes |

These tribalists keep getting the concept all wrong. Normal theatre productions yes it started with Yorubas. Even in the 60s most Nigerian motions picture were done by the whites based on some of Wole Soyinka's books and Chinua Achebe's books. But in terms of motion picture and the rapid commercialisation of Nigerian movies it started with Living in Bondage courtesy of Nek Video links. The man had to take people from NTA then to produce that movie. So the statement that Nollywood started with Yorubas is very misleading and false. 7 Likes |

FreeStuffsNG: Name one Nigerian movie before Living in bondage that was a blockbuster that had sales. That was not the exclusive preserve of NTA then? Please stop lying abeg. If it is theatre production which is a subset of the movie industry, yes it is the exclusive preserve of Yorubas. But Nollywood which is commercial motion picture movies started by igbos with Living in Bondage |

GoodLife4live:I'm sure those who were grown up in the 80s also have same for Igbo rap that Lagos is not aware of. Just like Lagos know da grin in this generation but don't know Massai and slow Dogg and think that phyno is the first Igbo rapper because he moved to Lagos. You get my point? |

GeneralPula: See you guys should stop displaying your ignorance in HD. Nollywood is commercial motion picture movies just like Hollywood, subsequently the American version of Broadway theatre presentation is the similar ones that Yorubas are well known for. Now if we look at the definition well you will realise that Nollywood actually kicked off with Living in Bondage by igbos and you can easily tell how many million copies were sold. I dare you if Yorubas actually started Nollywood, can you give me a yoruba blockbuster before Living in bondage and show us data on how many million copies sold and the movie company that produced it? Stop mixing up theater productions and Nollywood. No one lumps Broadway and Hollywood together. These are two distinct subsets of the movie industry. 3 Likes |

Irony1: You're the one who is wrong and wrapped in tribalism. Life evolves, hence the concept of evolution is applicable to almost every aspect of life, except birth and death, maybe. Nollywood means movies made in Nigeria, be it cinema, video cassettes, TV or Netflix; in Yorùbá, Hausa, English, French, etc. Nollywood, as an industry of many internal variants, has evolved over the years and stages of production. It is unwise and illogical to discard the early stages of growth and suddenly say Nollywood was birthed as a teenager, not as a baby. Lol 1 Like |

When are we ever going to stop all these nonsense dick measuring? Nollywood became what it is today, thanks to the contribution of the practitioners from the SW, SE, SS and NC. If your can do your unbiased research, your will find people from these geopolitical zones well represented from the beginning. Igbos played their parts, so did the Yorubas, so did the Niger-Deltans and many other great tribes of this nation. 1 Like |
