Congrats Esther. She is the best vocalist ever to emerge from a singing talent competition in Nigeria and prolly the best ever pure vocalist I've heard from 9ja.

Dont know what that Eazzie girl was doing in top three ahead of Naomi Mac. Eazzie's rendition of Sam Smith's writing on the wall was a disgrace.

Esther deserved this win. Her singing was spectacular. I loved her voice. Her dressing was decent all through the show. I just hope she is able to maximize her fame.
I really wish she remains a church girl. Make she no go join the "bad gang".
I remember Arese from season 1 who won over chike, while chike is still very much relevant in the music industry, I don't know if Arese is still doing anything significant in the industry for now

Arese is more of an actress. She is the lead character in the Africa Magic series, Jemeji. Musically though she has been under the radar.

The person we should be asking the whereabouts of actually is the Season 2 winner Idyll. The guy just completely disappeared off the screens and sounds. Anyway not surprising since that season was the worst of the Voice where talentless singers were being voted for over better ones.

Whats the time stamp if you don't mind

Dont I know the time stamp, but that's the link.

jikins:
His name is actually on the cast list for that episode. That is season 6 episode 16. sha come back with time stamp

He acted as a gang member threatening to shoot some other rivals.

I'm actually feeling this Boma guy o. His CV carry small.

He actually acted in the Hollywood series Blacklist episode 616 with Redmond Reddington.

Make I run to Netflix go check whether na lamba

Modified: Confirmed. The guy act am true true, even though na One minute waka pass role but all the same, at all at all na im bad pass.

She deserves it!

I'm an avid follower of musical talent shows and I can confidently say Esther is the best vocalist ever to come out from any Nigerian musical show from Idols, got talent, project fame, the voice. You need to watch this girl hit very high notes effortlessly that will make even Simon Cowell smile in appreciation.

Dont know how Eazzie got ahead of Naomi Mac though. Her rendition of Sam Smith's writing on the wall was the worst version I've ever heard.

This whitemoney guy be giving me Okon Lagos vibes.

I promised myself that I was gonna be neutral this season.

Yet, my heart seems inexorably drawn to this Jaypaul guy. Can't really say why I'm feeling him, but its undeniable. I just hope I dont have a fave yet.

But this Saga dey vertically challenged sha.

If only you applied this same energy to making money. Gosh who do our youths this thing? 600 years for that person

Same noni, at least you don contribute your own quota by extending the conversation . Little drops of comments here and there and before you know it voila!

Erm, who fit dash us 10 reasons who will benefit more from Elewedu and Laycon's reconciliation.

You people can be reconciling upandan o, but my own is that this thread must reach 11,000 pages to set record.

Common guys, it's just 79 pages to go!

sheylarhh:
That key was too high now

Yeah you re right. Kitay did not use the right key to start the Ada Ada song. But he corrected this in his subsequent performance which was a brilliant one. Kitay has very strong vocals.

sgtponzihater1:
True bro. If Naija was a fair country, I see him as the potential next Dovido's, WizKid, etc. Let's see how it plays out. Also you guys did not open an official thread for the voice naija

Lol, you re right and I think even Dare has seen his potential which is why he said he wants to personally invest in KP after the show. The truth is while we may be waxing lyrical and all that about Esther and Naomi Mac, it is KP that is likely the most marketable and most likely to succeed in the current Nigerian music industry. This is what Dare saw. I mean KP sings Rema's songs live better than Rema's studio version!

About opening a thread, I think because both voice and Idols were running concurrently, a single thread served both purposes. But I also thought that voice should have a separate thread after Idols ended last week. You can open one na.

sgtponzihater1:
Nothing like vocal ability in Kpee. The chap is confident and has the swag and move. The generation Z will bang along with him because that's the sound they are used to. I see him going quite far, but he is no the voice material by global standard.

True that KP's voice is just okay but nothing special. His charisma is what's working for him. But I have to admit his rendition of the 9ja songs is quite very good and in some instances actually sounds better than their recorded version.

ALEXAPLAYME:
Like I said before, Naomi Mac and Esther are the main reason I watch that trash show and they never disappoints as usual. Just look at how naomi performed the Brenda fassie song and how Esther performed Beyonce love on top song. It was perfect I hope one of them wins the competition(Esther especially)..

What makes Voice 9ja a trash show?

sgtponzihater1:
Esther is the voice. The young girl is blessed from heaven and does not need to force it .

Nigerian Idol tried to be all around and I respect them for that still. I see the voice allowing Kpee to keep doing Afro pop week in and week out, and I wonder if they are really doing a competition, when people can sing different genre on the same week?

The voice may have the singers, but the idols embodies the fairness and change we want to see as a Nation. IMHO Jerusalem's performance by the Nigerian idol contestant proved they were no push over.

Overall I agree with you. The voice have a long list of awesome vocalists like Dapo, Kitay, Naomi, but Esther trumps them all.

Thanks for mentioning me

You have a point in that Idols tries to emphasize versatility more than Voice. But you also need to understand that the Voice by design is more focused on vocal prowess than all round performance ability. And I think KP took on a regular song some weeks ago which required vocal dexterity and I think he delivered on it.

And it's obvious Esther is out of their league. She is probably the vocally strongest contestant ever in the voice Nigeria history. But previous contestants like Cornel, Joe blue, Vicky, Chike can give her a good battle vocally beyond any of her current competitors.

The Voice contestants have really stepped up their game since last week's episode. That Esther girl is the bomb. Her performance of Lloren Aldred's "Never enough" ranks as one of the all time greatest live performances on audition shows. Frankly, only kingdom can operate at the level of all current top 6 voice contestants.

Ribery indeed. Go check again

Oga, go and verify na before you continue to display ignorance. The 2013 Ballon D'or award was one of the most controversial as most people felt Ronaldo cheated Ribery who won all the major trophies whereas Ronaldo had none, especially also as the voting deadline was extended to allow voters take cognizance of Ronaldo's hatrick against Sweden which qualified them for 2014 World cup. Even Ribery spoke out against the perceived injustice against him. Where then did you see Robben Mister?

[quote author=jeffsummers post=103759816][/quote]I mentioned Fifa ballon D'or cos that was what was obtainable when Robben was in his prime between 2009 - 2016.

I repeat: Robben never made Fifa ballon D'or top 3. In 2013 when he won UCL, it was Ronaldo, Messi and Franck Ribery in that order. In 2014, twas Ronaldo Messi and Manuel Neuer. In 2012, twas Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta. 2015 was Messi Ronaldo Neymar. while 2016 was Ronaldo Messi and Greizmann.

FahBuLous:
LEGEND... After Lionel Messi, this is the second most dangerous left footer in the history of football...

Haba na, best left footer bawo, where you wan put Diego Maradona, who scored more goals than Robben with his left foot? Even Rivaldo that won the World best award also had a wicked left foot.

Rivelino of the great Brazil of the 60s & 70s nko? Maybe after this 4 guys, we can then talk about Robben. Even Gareth Bale go wan challenge him small.

What baffles me though is how Robben never made the final three nominees for Fifa Ballon D'or in his career. He deserved at least a podium finish and this is sadly a dent in his CV.

Lai lai, my time is precious and I need to protect my IQ from exposure to pollutants.

But you are well fortified. So pls do the needful

Dont mind them. They've resorted to yarning ridiculous amount of dust but we'll keep dumping their d*mb opinions in the trashcan where they belong.

Marca is the most accurate and reliable sport publication in Spain. They got the whole La Liga covered but here you go.

https://www.givemesport.com/1545094-the-worlds-highest-paid-footballers-and-managers-in-2020-have-been-named

It's a cliche that Marca is biased towards Madrid and any of their property so dont let us argue that. And in the link you posted, GMS still referenced Marca as the source of their information so it's still doubtful for me. But let me assume the info's close to legit, it was still a huge gap between Messi's wage level and CR's own. And knowing CR's ego especially about Messi, that must have pained him a lot.

MJBOLT:

which Kain re.tarded logic be this again
OJEEMAH
ThierryJay
Make una come see another one

Ojeemah has already handled the dumbino. Nothing much for me to add. Only ask the guy whether Ronaldo's output levels remained the same after he lost Modric, Kroos and Benzema as back ups. Pls ask him also whether Xavi and Iniesta were there with Messi in 2019 when he scored a whopping 53 goals a season and delivered consistently spectacular performances that saw him cinch the Ballon D'or and Fifa world player of the year. That should be enough for the buffoon.

Sommyroy10:
Please what's your source? Before his contract ended he was on 1.3-1.4mil per week. And also, I don't know who the closest is globally but Griezmann earns 880k per week, Bale earns 692k per week.

See my source below.

https://www.forbes.com/profile/lionel-messi/?sh=58e832065e9f

Earns 165million US dollars from Barca annually which translates to about 120million pounds per annum. Divide this by 52 weeks you have a gross pay of around 2.4million pounds per week. It should be noted that the amount is the total package inclusive of bonuses and incentives but excluding sponsorship deals and endorsements.

MizMyColi:
Yes, I am

Hope you are too

I've been great Madame.

MizMyColi:
Nothing should happen to him

It's been years since I saw this moniker active. Hope you re good.

To the news, nothing fit do Messi jare. Oluwa is with both him and CR cos CR must live long enough to witness Messi win more Ballon D'ors and World Cup and tell his grandchildren stories about how he tried to match the legendary midget toe to toe until he eventually fell off by the wayside in submission.

Wailers are welcome.

OJEEMAH:
Keep schooling them.....i dey follow your lecture

Lol, I say make I try be like you small.

Dalil8:
At Real Madrid he was earning a bit more than Messi, took a pay cut at Juve (1.2 weekly). And I'm not even talking about endorsements and others.

https://www.marca.com/en/football/barcelona/2020/02/07/5e3da43c22601d8c268b458c.html

Just seen your link. Marca is a real madrid tabloid. Could you pls provide another source that verifies the info from Marca, before we can accept?

Endorsements and sponsorships are excluded from the gross pay of both Messi and Ronaldo. I think Ronaldo slightly edges it in this department.

Dalil8:
And i repeat again, you know nothing.

Check Dailymail, Marca etc you'll see that the figures are different.

2 years ago his contract documents with Juve was leaked, can't seem to find it any more but it says he was earning 1.2m/weekly.

But you can keep lying to yourself that he earns a meagre 500k weekly

Sanchez, Bale, Mbappe, Tevez were or are currently earning above 500k, how much more CR7.

Oga, It is common knowledge and was widely reported that Ronaldo took a slight pay cut to join Juventus. So how come you re saying he's earning figures that he didnt even earn at Real Madrid aides sponsorship deals and endorsements?

Just seen your link. Marca is a real madrid tabloid. Could you pls provide another source that verifies the info from Marca, before we can accept?
