grin grin lots of intelligent people like naija music. Lots of Intelligent people love souljah boy. Lots of intelligent people hate Beethoven. I insist, your theory is severely flawed. grin

In as much as i accept that the concept of good music is subjective,you would be deceiving yourself if you label  all these garbage musicians are churning out in the name of music in Nigeria "good music". Please nobody is hating on Terry G, we all love his personality but that doesn't change the fact that most of his songs/lyrics make Bleep all sense. wait a min, have u heard k solo's album? WTF! na by force to sing? Gawd!!!!!!!!!! The only thing we hear in naija music nowadays na "swagga ur ginger and ginger ur swagga", "owo this owo that", i don kolo oo" and some other bloody incantations. C'mon man, this isn't ur idea of "good music". Gimme some Lara George any day any time.

Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by ayettymama(f): 10:06pm On Apr 02, 2010
im not generalising naija music- the best music (according to me) is nigerian, its yoruba!

there was a tyme u can listen to music, and want to do anything but dance, sniff coke, get ass implants, get a brazilian- a time when musicians werew martys cos they stood for something- thier music represented something they believed in, thier lyrics could be pressed and published as poetry- u listen and u think- deep!

if that still stands today- were all shallow mofos swimming in mediocracy! has to be said, then again intelligence levels are droppin and my dear friend mentioned ps goin on rise in recession. So music probably isnt the only thing thats dying!
Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by ayettymama(f): 10:09pm On Apr 02, 2010
lolz im not sayin people that listen to to classical are smart!!! i meant its coming from someone with a generally *ehem* booring taste in music!
Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by Krayola(m): 10:19pm On Apr 02, 2010
There is a lot of music out there that isn't about getting a Brazilian (I think all chiks should get those tho.  grin so big ups to "bad" music for that), sniffing coke, etc. If the types of artistes you enjoy  make top quality songs, we will see them on the charts. Maybe the artists that make the type of music u enjoy are just "whack"  grin . I'll rather Listen to a well made song about brazilians and coke than some lame attempt at being "deep".
Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by chamotex(m): 10:23pm On Apr 02, 2010
Everyone listens to music for different reasons.
If I wanna listen to an inspiring music . . . I know where to go
If I wanna listen to music that will make me sad . . . I know where to go
If I wanna listen to party tracks . . . I know where to get it.
If you are high . . . .listen to Terry G
If you wanna praise God . . . .listen to Don Moen.

i depart wiv nas's words

Everybody sound the same, commercialize the game

So we all gather here for the dearly departed
Hip hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became a man then a mobster
If the guys let me get my last swig of Vodka
R.I.P., we'll donate your lungs to a rasta
Went from turntables to mp3s
From "Beat Street" to commercials on Mickey D's
From gold cables to Jacobs
From plain facials to Botox and face lifts

It's about eighty niggaz from my hood that showed up
And they came to show love
Sold out concert and the doors are closed shut

Ok, while i won't limit the decline in the music industry to naija artists alone, i'd say the birth and death of the music industry was caused by AIT/kennys music. they opened the door for a lot of talent, but didn't sieve the shaft from the wheat.

Even globally, hip hop and R&B are declining so fast, it's in the sewers already. The few that aren't are bad remixes of old songs. I guess the only genre of music that isn't so bad is still rock.
But seriously, we need a few more Onyeka Onwenus and Christy Essiens. While some of our good artists don't get as much airplay like GT the guitar man, we have some who we can beat our chests like Asha, 9ice, rooftop mcs, mode 9 e.t.c. but where's room/hope for creativity when NBC is clamping down on Hunta!!!!!

Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by londoner: 3:42pm On Apr 03, 2010
I dont really know why Naija music is being targeted here. Its the case with all music. Songs about sex, drugs and violence have been the order of the day in the mainstream for a few years now. I dont know any country where their most artistic/talented and lyrically intelligent artists form the mainstream or the number ones. If people sre listening to music to dance to they are interested in the beat and a catchy chorus. Thats why Beyonce is more famous than India Arie,

Even Nas who is quoted on this thread has had some downright disgusting songs about sex and violence, and is very explicit about it.

At the end of the day, if you dont like terry g, what stops you from listening to M.I etc ? At the end of the day plenty of people enjoy his tracks, precisely because they are not serious and are just for fun.

I think there are quite a few good artists in Nigeria depending on what you're into. From Asa, to NNeka, to M.I  etc,
Re: I Am Ashamed Of Naija Retarded Music by govnor: 3:47pm On Apr 03, 2010
So many Nigerian music are nothing to write home about these days.

What do you expect? Many of the musicians are not really talented.
They only find themselves in the music industry due to hunger and idleness.

They are only looking for save haven to make ends meet and its unfortunate
that music is usually one area they easily seek solace.

They lack the basics. They require education and lots of training. But the quest
to make millions over night has made them impatient to do the right thing.

Even the so called A list musicians also lack in many areas. They are not their yet.
Although i give it to P-square. They are doing us proud.
