Back. Game changer 1. Most artistes try to get international fame by collaborating with foreign artistes/labels. Davido runs counter to that... left abroad to blow local. Game changer 2... Fall has busted open the doors for Afrobeats to be big worldwide... taking it to main street. Game Changer 3. Reverse of 1. Now foreign artistes are trying to collaborate with local artistes. Bear in mind.... Game Changer has nothing to do with hits... but what was done to change the direction/spread of the music. Let's not forget....on break waiting for Franknetter... remember him?? 4 Likes |

Ugosample: Very true! Even those AA that are now falling in love with his songs now would not have given him that same chance if he started out his artiste in the States. |

Beautyaddy: mhmm But given a choice between being an A list artiste in Africa and an A lisy artiste in the States I don't think there is ANY artiste that would choose option A over B. assuming they are mutually exclusive |
