Thats why this days I don't believe any naija news I hear. I Google searches wizkid net worth, it told me $200 million, psquare $500 million, korede bello $19 million. Even some top American stars never reach that level. Dr Dre is the second richest and he makes $350 million. Nairaland get your facts right. Confirm you news first... yemi album is only top in naija. It can never appear in the list of world wide only if she has won or been nominated In a Grammys or BET abroad...

From what I'm seeing in your screenshot, you are under albums while OP is talking about a song not whole album.
Do navigate/click on song and see if you're the one wrong.

Waiting for omawummi's album!

I just like few of yemi's song,she dey try...but omawummi is the female vocal power house of naija,waje can come second and the rest third!

Tiwa savage no go sleep this night,i don't think her RED album generated so much wave!
Omowumi has vocals but her songs are usually copy copy. that makes her unintelligible

Good for her, she's doing well commercially.

Although, the use of "worldwide" in the thread title is inaccurate.
itunes has a category known as "World," which deals with traditional/folksy type music from outside the US.
It's not a "worldwide" category, as in all albums in the world (I'm sure you can tell from the other albums in the screenshots).

I'm not sure why they named that category that way, since it seems to cause this same ambiguity quite often.

bros we know better.
it is difficult to deceive everybody at same time.

the three biggest songs of Omawumi were all copied. they were remixes of some other's songs.
#1. "In the music was a South African song that she just changed the lyrics every other thing was same.
#2."if you ask me" was Amy Whinehouse's " rehab " she also changed the lyrics every thing else remain the same.
#3."bottom belle" was an igbo song she also did a wonder of copying.

now tell me one song of her that is bigger than those three I mentioned. let her do a better original songs and let know how far.

if she is so good, how come she doesn't have an album yet? take it from me... she (as many other Nigerian arts)is highly challenged in terms of song writing

really there's no ambiguity.
just same way grammy award has a category for "world"
they're simply telling us that America is a world on it's own and ours is a world outside of that and grammy is primarily for them, any other person is secondary.

and the most annoying thing is copying without giving "courtesy" to the original work.
I mean is okay to remix but give due credit to the original, if not it becomes copy right infringement.

well said
