MusicSots: Sunny Ade did not attain his fame by chance. Though Obey got to the scene a bit ahead of him, he came and took the juju music to higher bear and rythm. That was what endeared him to the listeners then. The incorporation of faster beat to Juju music was later adopted by contemporary singer like Shina Peter who dubbed his music Afro Juju. He nearly retired the elders in the industry. So massive was his followership that, no other song were played in parties and social gathering in the early 90s. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Why una dey lie with straight face like this? Obey never beleive his music led people astray. I will search for a link to an interview he granted where he spoke about his music and spiritual journey. Indeed, he claimed he has been born again decades before he started church. He was ordained by Idahosa while still playing music. If you listen to his music, you will realise that despite been juju music, it was more of gospel. Obey did not retire from playing music per say. He actually reduced his musical activities due to age and to enable him concentrate on his church-DeCross. The church is in Lagos. Obey still plays music, making special appearances. Check the YouTube, you will see a whole lot of his recent live play. Obey did not relocate to America. He is in Nigeria Jaspernubi: 1 Like |

His Music is full of Wisdom. the likes of "Ogbon Loruko ree, ko lowo, kosi bimo" "Baba, Omo ati ketekete" "Odun Owo ti mofe she, baba mii eyin le malulu" His music inculcate wisdom into us not like ds generation that prefers listening to rubbish. |

Maxim69: Chief Ebenezer Obey has groomed many. Our KSA was once with him, and so many others. However, style and level are crafted uniquely, hence noone may actually be able to wear the exact size of his shoes. Not only him, all with any God assigned talent. Check out Uncle Gbenga Adeboye, Papa Fela, Alhaji Agba, Pa Adeolu Akinsanya, Baba aladura- IK Dairo, Alhaji Haruna Ishola, Alhjai Anigilaje etc, Just mention any of our long gone legends or even the living ones-- other may follow their footsteps or be able to copy-reproduce their songs, but o ma ma jora won ni, ko le je kan na!! 2 Likes |
