So, what exactly did i say?
I mean these guys are good on their own.its just that people like 2face brought the attention of the west to Nigerian music.if not for people like 2face,the international recognition that they should have achieved in 10 to 20years,they achieved it within a short time.however,The work these new generation acts have to do to keep the international attention on their craft is ensuring sustainability. That's the major work they have to do if not they'll just fizzle out like jarule,dmx or lil kim

exactly. If not you'll begin to look like a nuisance or agbaya and loose your respect and aura.idris abdulkareem and 9ice comes to mind.when they tried reappearing, not only did they loose their value,they failed woefully. Even the people that were still in secondary school when you started your music career will begin to insult you


Remove 9ice. Dude is still relevant in the industry and his fan base remains huge. His latest ID cabasa album is dope plus his super single Titled Living Things

This is a great feat for Davido. I remember when 2face released a song claiming he did it with R Kelly. Few weeks later, it was discovered that he just took RKelly's voice from another song and infused it into his. That was the biggest lie of the year. What 2face couldn't achieve is what Davido got cheaply.

Lol...as in i weak that year R kelly debunked 2face's claims of a collabo.

R.Kelly has lost his steam, I won't call him a has-been or failed artiste but he is just like any regular artiste out there now

Trust people from the West to blow this out of proportion.
Do you live and breathe tribalism?

While Davido has gone back to his roots, Wizkid is busy changing his style to blend with the American style. He doesn't know that Americans hate it when you try to sell them their own idea. Maybe that's part of why drake didn't show up in Wizkid's video.

This is what I was telling someone on my Facebook a couple of weeks ago and the guy as calling me a hater. Wizkid be forming Jamaican and all, while Davido is proud of his broken English and Yoruba. I love Davido for that.

9ice sings nonsense now.in the music industry if you know you have made a name and mark for yourself, you should make yourself scarce that's how people will value you.just appear for a while, drop something and disappear. Make people miss you.people like akon, olu maintain and lagbaja do that a lot that's why they're still relevant even when they don't sing

Daddy Shokey, and tony tetuilla sang nonsense during their time and got away with it because the music market wasnt that aggressive and options were linited but they made their mark.however they didn't come back because if they do they'll goof seriously. So they just respect themselves. Now the industry is more competitive and aggressive so they cannot come and be singing the nonsense they were singing because the world has gone past that

If he was really referring to just flex, why would he say what 2 face couldn't achieve, davido got cheaply? I doubt he has ever heard that 2 face had collaborated with r kelly on hands across the world

I remember that track. It was titled "FLEX"..It was released in 2008.The song was in his UNSTOPPABLE album..

I heard Tubaba lifted a rip of R.Kelly's voice cut from Shaggy’s version of “Flex“ which coincidentally had the same beat and melody…

The moral lesson to learn here is that if you must steal, please be darn good at it.. cheesy

You guys sincerely need to educate yourself more or just shut up! Music is a universal language dosent matter how you speak it!

That said, I am happy for Davido because the more Nigerians we have on the international scene, the better!!

On R.Kellys last album, he feautured WiZKID. That is a greater feat. While I appreciate and love both davido and Wizkid it's just raw foolishness to compare the two.

Here in North America, Wizkid blasts on the radio all the time...he is the closest thing we have to a Grammy - it dosent matter how he gets there the key thing is in all his interviews he screams Africa likewise in his recent video. Like it or hate it, Wizkid dosent represent only Nigeria anymore.

Music makes you a global voice and your ability to keep staying relevant in the music scene is what makes you a true and great musician.

This shows Naija is meant to be great but for our Yeye leaders who sees the country as their ATM. God bless Naija and shame to our leaders. With or without them, Naija shall be great.

what if it is the other way round? Davido heard the song from RKelly and "copied" the song. Can anyone confirm which one came out first? Davido's own abi Rkelly's own

It is no more news that Nigerian Music is making huge wave in the world right now. The Afrobeat inspired sound has drawn the attention of top American artiste to Nigeria as we see them featuring in songs with our stars. The latest we have is RnB Legend, R Kelly doing a cover of Davido’s hit song ”If”. The Nigerian sensation shared a video of the song blasting from a car stereo on his Instagram page which shows London as his location. Few months back, he claimed his deal with Sony Music required him to change his style to something appealing to the international audience. This made him to struggle for a while untile he decided that it was best he remained true to his roots. He is glad it is all paying off now as he captioned the video in the below manner.
