Growing up in Nigeria was fun, and I had the opportunity to listen to lots of talented musicians/music artistes and groups from Africa's most populous black nation ranging from the likes of Onyeka Onwenu, to Asa, to TY bello, to psquare, to wizkid, style plus and so many more.

But among all these, one voice was among the "special few" that did stand out. He was known as, "The masked one". A lot of people still don't know the face behind the mask of this music legend, though recently, he unmasked his face in honour of his daughter's wedding.

His name is "Lagbaja".


Lagbaja, originally known as; Bisade Ologunde, who is currently based in Manhattan, new york, USA is a Nigerian afrobeat musician, singer and song writer.

He was born in year 1960 in Lagos state. He is from Odogun's compound, ijagbo community in Ogun local government area of Kwara state.

The Nigerian music icon, adopted the name, "lagbaja" ( meaning "anonymous" or "The faceless one" in Yoruba).

He is also an instrumentalist, who plays the saxophone. He made his debut in year 1993 into the music industry and since then, he has been able to fascinate us with his unique style of using traditional African drums/instruments.

His music is purely instrumental but sometimes, they are sung in Yoruba or English or a blend of the two. Most of his songs entertain, while some send a serious message which is most times, filled with humour.

He has won awards such as, Nigerian music awards in 2001, including artist of the year, producer of the year, and album of the year. He and his band performed on the African stage at the BBC music live festival over the Golden jubilee celebration at London's Hyde park in summer 2002.


The songs and punchlines of lagbaja are still in use in our society today. From "konko below", to "gra gra", to "skentele", to "nothing for you", and a few more. His songs and style are ever green and will always be remembered by Nigerians and other Africans, who got wind of his talents also.

Lagbaja was like a breath of fresh air that blew and made us bask in the beauties of true music.
Many legends and class acts come and go. But in lagbaja, we have one who cannot be buried in the annals of history but will always live long in our memories.

There are spirits brave,
There are legends true,
There are legacies eternal and also talents extraordinary.

In the masked one, we had almost all these...

He is truly one of Afrobeats' finest of the finest and King of African Jazz....

Here's to saying; "Lagbaja, some of us still miss you and your music which always offered laughter, entertainment, hope and love".


Lagbaja is a true icon of music not just in Nigeria, but in Africa and till date in the 17th year of the 21st century, is still missed despite the boom in music dynamism and styles across the continent called, "Mother Africa". Lagbaja was a genuine super Original.

sorry for going through your stuffs lol

makydebbie:
Oh yea you did.
I'm not into this blind date thingy. Didn't go well for me the first time. I'm definitely at your backyard.

lol, now i feel better. i was thinking of how to board maruwa to ghana now lol.
i dont see it as a blind date though, i am new to lagos and i just want to hang out with someone. i already had plans of going to the movies this weekend or next weekend and having you around will be great

makydebbie:
Has your instincts told you there's a possibility that I'm not in Nigeria?

Damn, i saw lagos in your profile though. ill still trust my instinct, i know someday ill take you to the movies.
where are you at though?

makydebbie:
What makes you think we can meet? Btw, every weekend, I go out with my family.

my instincts tells me and its a unique suggestion by my instinct cause i have never asked a female nairalander to meet before. its great to connect with family but you should have time reserved for friends too, can i borrow from that?

makydebbie:
Goodluck in your quest.

lol, it wouldnt cost you alot to make that happen. we could go see the movies over the weekend

makydebbie:
I love us too.

i havent really met a beautiful ghanian lady, i would love to meet one

makydebbie:
Nothing significant really, just there for fun.

okay, i love it though
i love girls that dont give a Bleep

makydebbie:
LOL, yea I've been trolled but that's not why it's there. Thanks for the compliment.

welcome dear.
can i know why its there please?

i think yesterday everybody that participated in the struggle of biafra was celebrated.
this article will be sent to the dustbin. thank you

makydebbie:
Probably.

you look trendy. i love that.
your personal text suggests some nairalanders have been trolling your ass?

engrchykae:
why are you trying to fight your greatest asset,your mind.you are likely to be born between may and june.air is your element and as the air permeates everything so your mind invades everything.full of knowledge. use it to write books or songs or movies and be innovative in whatever you are doing.if the air can be controlled then your mind can be controlled.

thanks bro. you seem to know me completely, i am a very creative person when i write or talk basically when i am giving out information but i lack focus to read a book with so much intensity, i always struggle through that. i also have below average listening skills. i only excel greatly at reading things i am deeply interested in and listening to people who say things i feel are important. this was a major limitation for me through the university, although i struggled and graduated with second class upper. now i am awaiting service and i have a job i love but even though i love the job, i am not focused because a problem i have keep running through my mind and this have led me to be very unproductive.

she just needed attention, pretty soon now you will hear she just dropped a single.

i always spit when i hear even igbos say "igbos are not united". dont let people tell you what you are, look around you and find the evidence. because the traditional igbo political structures that has influenced our modus operandi of doing politics has not favored us does not mean igbos are not united. igbos form progressive associations at home and in diaspora and are ready to fight together for a cause they feel is just.

ill just propose to her immediately or do any other thing to make her happy

makydebbie:
But you get alot of it all the time, surely you must be used to it?

this is not a snake thread na
