Music/Radio / Re: Nigerian Reggae Music Of The 1980s And 1990s by okocha55: 8:28am On Oct 21, 2022
Nigerian reggae music is criminally underrated, I like the sound far better even than Jamaican.

As an Oyinbo growing up in the US I listened to African American music my whole life, and recently discovered Nigerian music from hearing a song by William Onyeabor in a skateboarding video.

There's just something about the sounds coming from Africa that sound so much more raw, pure, and great than the US afro sounds. The absolute sickest beats I've ever discovered are in Naija reggae. It's strange in the year 2022 so much of the music isn't even on YouTube yet.

I listened to electronic music / EDM / house for nearly 20 years and once I discovered Nigerian music from the 70s, 80s, 90s, it's taken up nearly all of my listening now over the past couple of years. Sadly Naija doesn't produce music like this anymore and maybe one day I will run out of sounds to discover undecided undecided

Recently I have purchased these records and uploaded them to YouTube below, cannot believe I was the first to upload these complete albums!

Music/Radio / Looking To Find These Songs / CD, Will Pay Somebody Who Can Help Me by okocha55: 4:00am On Aug 02, 2022
Hello Naija

I've been trying to find these songs or this CD to order.

https://www.discogs.com/release/10410050-Ben-King-Thinking-About-You

If you do not want to click the link, it is artist Ben King - album called Thinking About You

A few of the songs are on YouTube, but the others are not. I found a couple online stores selling the CD, but they are sold out. I can only find it for sale on vinyl which does not work for me.

Can somebody track down these songs on this album or the actual album for me? If so I can pay you a decent amount. I am oyinbo so not much luck in my location! Thanks!
Jobs/Vacancies / Play Video Game Agar.io Earn N2000 Per Hour by okocha55: 11:26pm On Jul 03, 2021
Hello fellow Naija

Looking for somebody to get paid to play browser game Agar.io, you represent your country of Nigeria by entering Nigeria in the name box, and will pay N2000 per hour. This is real offer, though it is not a permanent job. We could try it out a few times for an hour and see how it goes and maybe do it more. You just have to show that you played the game representing Nigeria, so you could record your browser screen somehow and upload the play session to YouTube or something like that.

In this game there is a link to invite friends into your game, so it would be great if we could get maybe like 5 guys playing together as Nigeria at the same time.

We should be in contact first to agree, please do not send video randomly without contact. You can send a private message or reply here. Looking to offer to someone who it will do good for.
