The African music industry specifically the
Nigerian music industry in recent years have experienced some sudden changes in
the kind of songs its Artistes put out or are putting out. Ranging from change
of style in genres fusing the traditional hip hop sounds with some home-made
beats which is formally known as “Afro- Pop” or “Fusion” as the case maybe. And
apart from the fact, the kinds of beats are beginning to change, also the
language delivery in every song by African Artistes specifically Nigerian
Artistes are beginning to experience some sudden change from the officially
English Language delivery to our individual state languages.
This sudden
trend by African Artistes has received a lot of international recognitions,
although it wasn’t well appreciated back those days when only few number of
musicians sang in their native languages.
The likes of
Olamide, Phyno, Illbliss, Reminisce, Zoro, have experienced great recognitions
in their respective style of careers through the motives to stink to the choice
of representing their localities in their musical deliveries [ although
Reminisce recently had a change in style of language delivery].
While the
likes of Wizkid, Lil kesh, Davido are actually spicing their own careers with
their indigenous language [Yoruba].
The South
East and South West are the two major zones to produce or have produced more
artistes who represent the regions more than any other geopolitical zone.
Although the
South Southerners are putting in every effort to be highly recognized in the
music industry just the way they are widely accepted in the comedy
representation of the region.
A few have
tried making themselves known , the like of Viktoh who sings in his native
Benin local tongue.
But what
about the Deltans and Bayelsans?, should we accept they as the comedy kings and
take them as flops in the music industry?. For me, I take it as a NO, as a guy
I recently met sings and raps better in the local “Kwale”. “Kwale” is a native
language mostly spoken by the Ogunus in the Ndokwa west region of delta.
This guy who
is nicked “Wizdido” is a traditionally- urban kind of a singer, rapper as he
mostly delivers in “Kwale” and a lil bit
of English Language and the pidgin.
The street
commissioner as he is fondly called by his fans is named Paul Nonso Ugbeh.
Wizdido started his musical career with a smashing tune he title “Akwa Ibom
Girls” in 2009.
A graduate
of Statistic from the Federal Polytechnic, Oko in Anambra State fuses his kind
of music in so many ways ranging from
great powerful lyrics, sounds and vocals
D.I.D.O
meaning “Destiny In Different Occurrences, one can beat his chest and say this
guy got a difference.
