You are not current.
"Drille is a talented artist known for his impressive discography, which includes popular songs in both English and Yoruba languages."
In fact, one of his popular singles was recorded in Yoruba.
Which popular single was recorded in Yoruba?

Bro, those names you mentioned, which of them can fill up a stadium in the UK?
I told you they are birthday singers. No be for birthday and weddings Drille and Chike dey sing?

Phyno is smart, that's why he aligned with Olamide immediately he left the East. They had hits back to back as he leveraged on Olamide's prowess in Yoruba Language.
When they stopped producing songs together, Phyno dropped fast. Today, Jerique and Zoro are stressing him like mad.

Flavour is very very good but he's a beer parlour, funeral and wedding singer. Ask yourself why.
Bro, the names you listed can fill a stadium in Nigeria. Why do they have to fill a stadium in the international scene before you rate them? Tyla that has a Grammy, do you think she can fill a big beer parlour in Nigeria?

Without singing in Yoruba Language, you can't succeed in music in Nigeria.

You will just be a birthday and beer parlour singer, nothing for you.
wrong you don't need to sing in only yoruba we have over 250 languages and pidgin. It depends on the artiste not the language stop this divide and conquer. Na communication matter pass.

Rema is still young and he will still do great things in the future. Till then, make he go understand the language of music.

There's a reason why Don Jazzy dey sing in Yoruba fluently.

You are deceiving yourself. Out of the 250 languages, all the 15 or 16 Grammys won by Nigerians were all won by Yorubas. Why?

Only non Yoruba who won is named Ebunoluwa, has a Yoruba mother and sings in Yoruba. Why?

If you are a Nigerian in entertainment and you want international exposure, go and learn Yoruba. Otherwise, na for beer parlour and birthdays you do dey feature.

I'm talking about international exposure, you are talking about filling a stadium in Nigeria. Which kind talk be that?
Even Small Doctor will fill Agege stadium, so what are you saying?
International exposure is all bro. That's the ultimate.

They can rate you in your village but no one knows you where it matters. You will only be in your village singing at birthdays, weddings and funerals while your mates are maxing out venues in the land of those who colonised you.

Go and watch Wizkid bring out Chris Brown in the UK after Chris Brown couldn't enter the UK for more than a decade. That's what I'm talking about bro.

All these things you listed does not make an artist the most successful or richest. Don Jazzy is probably the top grossing musical act, Johnny drille and 2face are also up there. Tyla has won a Grammy and she only has one recognizable song. I rate Simi, drille, chike and burna over davido, Wizkid, asake et al all day.
I do not have an ego that has to be piped down, why would I? Am I being paid?? 🤔
Wetin this one dey talk..?
You better go sleep.
You know nothing about music.
Just go back to playing with sand in your backyard

Tuface sing for yoruba or flavour , are they not A-list singers? Burna boy's mom is an Edo woman, did fela not sing most of his songs in pidgin abi he was an igbo man? Stop this yeye tribalism, there's nothing special about yoruba or other tribes. Humanity and Africa first. Yet you no support sunday igboho, evil competition in a country where people are crammed together without their permission. Mr Yoruba take time o!

Any upcoming singer who wants a hit single for 2025, should contact me.

My non-commercial single gave me an hour interview on BBC Radio in April, 2003.

I know you are Igbo, that's why it is paining you. You have a history of insulting Yorubas here.
Yorubas are special and your tears can't change that. There is a reason why Yorubas have 16 Grammys and you don't have a single one.

If you are Igbo and can't sing in Yoruba, you will only be singing in birthdays, burial and beer parlour. You will NEVER get international appeal. Go and use Flavour as an example.

Listen and listen good. They don't give Grammys based on sentiments or "my brother".
If you remember, those demented Anambra Evil forest twins called Psquare once complained that Headies was a Yoruba award. They couldn't compete with the Yorubas who were far better than them, so they started crying tribalism.
How that Yorubas are clearing Grammys, their stupidity is now apparent.

Yoruba is the language of music. We de best, no be by mouth. Doings dey.
When Clinton came to Naija, they sang for him in Yoruba.
Then Queen Eliza came, na Yoruba song she dance to.
When George Bush Jr came, na Yoruba. So, what nonsense are you saying?
If you die and go to Heaven, don't be surprised if the Angels will also use Yoruba music to welcome you. grin

No sir, he isn't.
A dozen Remas no reach Àsake.
Rema has hit singles and his sound resonates with the Indian market which is significant cos of their population. He just recently had a fantastic album.
Remove Baby calm down and Ckay will eclipse Rema in all of Asia.

If Rema pays attention to his craft and avoids that miscreant called Shallipopi, he will go far. Otherwise, he will just be another Oscroh singer.

He once said his tribe is bigger than Burna's tribe.

When he comes out in 2073 and finds out that Ikwerres have colonised Ohaneze, he will have convulsion.

Is Rema bigger than Majek Fashek who performed on David Letterman's show?

Asake stormed Yankee '23 and he's gone so far. Rema despite all Mavin's push, what has he done with it?

Baba, forget. Rema will grow not he never reach. His association with Selena Gomez got him there. From there, what has he been able to do with it?
