Truth be told, true reporting is dead in Nigeria. No more critical review. We Nigerians are now like dummies that we take everything hook, line and sinker. We dont evaluate and ask questions anymore. Anyone who critically review our leaders will be term ipod or afonja; our artistes, haters.

The other day, Oyemike told DJ cuppy the truth about her recently dropped song, and he was blasted everywhere online as haters. Osagie said similar thing about MI. All hell was let loose on the poor guys. Where is Chocolate City with MI as the President? Chocolate city that once pride as one of the best record label in Nigeria. But ass-lickers around MI and the PR press wont let him hear the truth

Can DJ cuppy perform that wack song on same stage where music enigma like Beyonce, Jayz, Usher and even Coffee of South Africa who was the performing DJ/Artiste with Usher and Pharell Wiliams yesterday were setting the stage on fire? That is absolutely 'impossicantility' of highest of the highest order!

We celebrate mediocre here in Nigeria. See wizkid performing on stage and seemed like no one was here. He was just walking and couldnt connect with the crowd. Infact, there was no communication with his DJ that he had to tell him twice to increase the tempo because the truth is, they were not feeling your wizkid!

Then Tiwa Savage...my Doro Tiwa went on stage to further embarrass the nation Naija further. Tiwa's hypeman was shouting too much and drowning her voice on her own stage. It was a poor sight to behold!

A Niniola or Yemi Alade would have shut the stage down with mesmerizing performances. A Davido, yes, same frog-voice Davido would have lit the stage on fire even with his 'noise'. Though less vocal than Wizkid but his energy up and down any stage would have caused some havoc. Good havoc! the Tubaba would have on a 'FIA' level

Then came the legendary Femi Kuti and perform true to his billing and to the rescue of his counterpart

Then came again the most incredible entertainer out of Africa, Dbanj. He was a million star on the stage. His stagecraft was electrifying. They loved his stage presence and could go on and on if there was time. Infact a South African lady mentioned that although Dbanj needs to enter studio with a good producer who will help make a hit, he had a star power that was rare among performing artistes

Casper Nyovest was too good. He was damn too great on stage. Infact, Chris Martins of Coldplay even came to lace his booth live on the stage! What about Usher and Pharell williams? Magnificent!

Please dont bother to mention Ed. That guy was totally something else. He was his own choir master, guitar man, piano man, backup artiste, band and lead singer. He was just too much that people even forget there was anyone like Tiwa or wizkid on that same stage earlier

The truth is what sells our artistes here in Nigeria is just PR. No more critical review. Imagine wizkid saying live on stage, 'let's drop the African biggest song of the year in 2018' and went on to play 'soco'. That tha heck!! Who dashed him or the song biggest song of the year. Same mediocre artistes will be carting the highest numbers of awards every year when we have music power houses here in this country but never give the right platform or PR to shine!

Once some of our so called big artistes drop songs, go to social media and come and see comments hailing some of those wackos and gibberish jingles that radio and TV stations would wash down our throat. Live performance at the Global Citizen concert really exposed some of our so-called African biggest artistes!

Did you noticed as everywhere was quiet in Nigeria after the concert after our PR paying artistes performed below par. That is how we are not calling a spade what it is. That is how our artistes are not been put under immense pressure to justify the heavy money been paid to them per show. Imagine what Ed made from Tour last year which was close to $400 million. ONLY FROM TOUR! And one Teckno who can hardly play any live concert would come on social media and say 'voice was damaged' due to so much live events' performance? Did he mean all his CDs he has been performing from are now cracked or damaged? It's so pathetic!

Note this. When you have friends who hail every of your activities and cant look into your eyes and tell you the truth. Move asap or be ready for your own unpardonable downfall!

WIZKID'S

TIWA SAVAGE

CASPER PERFORMANCE

Go and do ur own na armchair critic. What would have been an embarrassment is if Wizkid & Tiwa performed better than Dbanj & Cassper, who are their elders in the game. Wizzy sang live throughout and sounded lovely.

Hating is allowed though cos I know dts ur problem.

wow thats just so bad

The same Tiwasavage that the whole internet was hailing for her performance? Dear hater have u taken ur meds today?

The OP is so so correct. These two commenters above didn't even know there was a show, talk less of watching it

It's really quite unfortunate that my wizzy wizzy can no longer be in competition with Davido. Wizzy now lacks lyrics that he ends up repeating the same words and a scanty sentence. Thanks to his beat makers and the past glory which he is dwelling on.

If his problem is excess weed, then we all have to duff our hats for 2baba.

Thats the sad truth
Wizkid and Tiwa's performance was trash..... I was ashamed of them

Which internet? Jus say Nigerians on d internet.. We've always celebrated mediocrity in dis part dats why we don't get recognition beyond d African continent.. Stage performances by most of our artistes isn't jus embarassing but downright annoying.. Most of dem can't put up a performance without their music being played thru d speakers while dey jus jump up and down d stage

That is all they do. Read few lines online and then that would inform their opionions. Thats how they sold their destinies for the promise of 'change' without asking questions

Some of us who know our Naija Artistes are mostly all studio kings and queens who know nothing about live/ stage performance. This is where someone like Dbanj ALWAYS stand out tall above the rest

... You d third person am hearing dis from dat wizzy don't ve good lyrics again and d first person is his hard fans and an artist.
It seems am beginning to get convince.

OP you are the bomb! Very apt and true!
" Infact a South
African lady mentioned that
although Dbanj needs to enter
studio with a good producer who
will help make a hit, he had a star
power that was rare among
performing artistes".......another correct observation that has been troubling me for 3 years now. Since I listened Dbanj and Tubaba's collabo ' I'm feeling cool' , I have never doubted the musical energies they house within. A good producer with a lil funky beat and innovation would unleash the dynamite called Dbanj again.

If Starboy had invested in stage discipline, he shouldnt have had that poor outing . Truth is that live shows are more real and different from videos ,PR and photoOps.

It takes some work.

I even thought they were warming up on stage, so that's their performance?? With scanty audience, nawa

u are just a hater.

Op, u jst spoke d truth, I didn't feel Tiwa savage @ all on dat stage, all i heard was her hyper shoutung like someone high on an illicit drug...even d camera was all ova him apperently in disgust @his rubbish.. As 4 Wizkid his dressing sense was a no no 4 me, d performance poor. D'banj owed d stage, i was so proud of him, indeed he's D ENTERTAINER. Tiwa needs 2 loose dat her hyper man ASAP. .d crowd was just looking @him like a clown

Who doesn't know wizkid is full of shitts.

Mediocrity is our national anthem - very wack populace

Thanks op. Truth well said. Me on her insta page was like why is Tiwa the one posting all the hype on herself.

When you do something great and people talk about it, you should let the world see the good things people are saying about you not you yourself promoting what people are saying about you.

I just felt, this one have rented people to say something good about her cos she just kept posting people's comment

I think they were good. Good thing they didn't invite artists that just mime to CD.

No one has talked about femi kutis performance.

The OP did acknowledge Femi Kuti's performance.

One musician that i hate to see perform live is that tiwa savage....i can never go for her concert her voice is incredibly annoying...simi should be the number 1 female artist in africa

I've said it times without number, wizkid no get lyrics.. Listen to Manya,soco,nowo and fever, d same beat, artiste e no fit promote, no homo, just look at what davido is doing with DMW, mayorkun won next rated, either dremo or peruzzi go win next one,but Mr.soco and his crew never get one artiste on rookies not to talk of next rated.. Over hyped poo..#fact

Bros OP sorry but you are a Great Fooll for making me waste my Data to watch an amazing Wizkid performance

Very Useless OP.

" Girl you are beautiful tu,my number 1 itutu,sip e brukututu, for your love itutu ,I go shook you chuku chuku"

"Baby sip e brukututu la lo kutukutu Pelu adetutu"

Shitty performance by Tiwa and my own wizzy

1. Don't compare Wizkid to ur autotune god. That guy cannot sing live to save his life. Please go and watch him live. Screams on top CD. Just Thank god for music engineering in Davidos life. #fact.

2. Not everyone is a hyper sanguine. Does wizkid even hype himself. He had three intl collaborations last month & hyped none. Where are the artists dt tuface, dbanj, flavor, psquare, timaya etc have brought up? Don't they own their own labels too. Let everyone be their own person.

3. Wizkid is fully into afrobeats fela style now. Manya is a perfect example. It's really not for everyone so I understand how u don't get it. I just pray he never goes back to those his 1st album days of engineered afropop beats with no highlife instrumentals.

Still wondering tho, How come nasty C didn't perform?

Everybody knows Wizkid is very good performing on stage and also very good using his bad (Multicrew) so if he had this one bad performance,it's nothing to curse him for....the nigga is trying....
And his dressing was nice,i see nothing bad wearing shorts

Go and take one Heineken on my behalf and a plate of isi ewu.......U are among the wise...
