Clean visuals but I'd like to see the style of Lagbaja, Fela etc make a re-entry into Nigeria's music scene. Most afrobeats projects nowadays has revolved around rhymes that at best, appears disjointed when you attempt to follow the message and lyrics. Not taking anything away from Asake's unique and incredible talent.

We are together in this, man.

And if we should look at it very well, most of the rhymes seem forced or themes are always built on vibes and inshallah.

This right here "most of the rhymes seem forced or themes are always built on vibes and inshallah" is bang on point. Seems pretty much like the artists are mostly chasing short, trendy, danceable beat for the moment. Quantity over quality

Obongjayar, 2 Baba, Brymo, Asa and a scanty others - in single digit, are probably the only artists that stands out for me. I can objectively say that good music in Nigeria started dying from 2010 onward. I still listen to the projects of Lagbaja, Sunny Okosun, King Sunny Ade, Oliver De Coque and a very few others (I archive them in my music library by the way) some from even before I was born and or when I was only a primary school kid and I'd say to myself "Wow that's an incredible project piece with incredible audio mastering". Can't say most afrobeats of nowadays will ever hold such legendary value.

See concept though
Smart and creative

I guess you have a valid point. But where I disagree is your comment in quote "There is nothing they sing that these current generation hasn’t modernized". I believe "modernized" is doing some heavy lifting here. Generations come and go, and music as an art will certainly reflect the technological (in terms of music production) and social (in terms of target audience) trend of the particular era. It doesn't mean they have "modernised" what their predecessor has done. You can't "modernise" live instrumentation, percussion ensembles and organic room acoustics. Those are different to programmed drums, synths and vocal processing that you hear in afrobeats nowadays. If you mean "modernized" by style of music, then I can partly agree that current style to some degree, reflects the style of previous generations but not necessarily the actual body of work.

Again, I'm only drawing comparisons, not demeaning the talent that the likes of Asake, Wizkid, Burna Boy obviously has, I made that point known earlier. I archive their albums and go to their shows. Heck I travel to see Wizkid, Burna, Asake etc perform. Even travelled to Dublin to see Burna Boy perform in 2022. I only by an unfortunate situation, missed out on Asake's Red Bull Orchestral performance in New York (November 2025).

Side note: Growing up, my pops was always blaring out Sunny Ade, Osadebe, Ebenezer Obey etc and thought at the time that those music were garbage. I appreciate those work a lot more now that I'm older. I'm not sure if the next generation would be able to say the same thing about the majority of Afrobeats music of this generation (Quantity over quality). My ultimate argument (or at least most of it) is, music back then has a lot more meaning than most music of nowadays. I guess we appreciate music differently.

I disagree with this too "All these old people don’t know that their time has passed now" You don't know me - I'm not even 40 - well, unless you're 15 then you can call me a dinosaur. I just enjoy music of those era, it's the same as how I deeply enjoy the projects of the likes of Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Miles Davies, 2 Pac etc. It doesn't mean I don't blare out Drake, Kendrick Lamar etc, at any given opportunity.

You get it cool cat?

Banger from Asake, no noise just vibes and creativity
