why is it that Nigerian music is now characterized as this new hip hop copycat style that is popular these days . i mean don't get me wrong, i like some of them but i think the youngsters need to incorporate the traditional music into it. I love our different traditional music and i do not want them to die and be replaced by some of these reggetone sounding hiphop nonsense i hear all the time . I mean we are Africans and we should represent our culture full throttle and not try to replace with. it really saddens me since I'm in the US and have fully grasped the meaning of my culture and how much i want to keep it alive, i noticed that back home, everyone is trying to adopt these western style which is sooooo wackk to me. when i go to Youtube i usually listen to my oldies and since I'm igbo my oldies include osadebe, Oliver, bright chimezie, morocco maduka, and so on , sometimes i listen to timaya and co but i prefer my oldies that really display our culture and make me dance dance dance . i just wish these newbees will incorporate it into the modern music of Nigeria. like ppl in Nigeria don't really appreciate the culture and some even want to abolish a lot of it, but until you live outside Nigeria for soooo long and miss home something terrible, you will get what i mean,

Anyways sha what do think? and plz only reasonable responses and nothing silly ,
