I love your personality and perspective on the topic. You brilliantly do justice to it intelligently without cruelty. I would love my Kenyan artist to collaborate with Nigerian artists more and penetrate the Nigerian market. Nigerian can open the world to them We need more music from all over Africa. I loved the late Lucky Dube and many others. I am from Nigeria 🇳🇬. You are beautiful.
Thk you Sister for pining my comment. I think you my point resonated with you. I just subscribe to your channel. I apologized for not doing so the first time. I felt guilty. Please, accept my apology. Thanks.
The Nigerian kind of music is infectious and addictive. Once u start jamming to one, there is another new one...and the vibes goes on and on. The naija afrobeat has gone global. Not only in Kenya.
This is an interesting perspective, let's have a collaboration on this topic. I would encourage more collaboration between Kenyan and Nigerian Artists. I love Kenyans because they are the biggest supporters of Afrobeats
@@Love22320 no, it's the other way. They should reach out to Nigerian artistes. I prefer Kenyans to the ungrateful and back-stabbing Ghanaian artistes 🇬🇭.
i love the way this lady treats this sensitive topic without a trace of bitterness or envy. I can't say same of our noisy West African neighbor. I wish Kenyan music all the best and wish that we collaborated more with them. They deserve nothing but the best.
You are right about the population and the support, but one thing you didn't capture is the quality of what they tune out. The quality of songs, they lyrics, the beats and the videography is top notch. Language is never a problem, you can use swahili a vast language in Africa and still blow, but the beat and video has to be world class. This why Nigeria has most consumers in Africa.
You guys don't understand! It's not about population size or language. This is why you guys are losing (with all due respect). It's about QUALITY, HARD WORK, and great MARKETING. Most of the popular songs from Nigeria are sang in Pidgin English and Yoruba language, and a few in Igbo; but there are over 500 languages in Nigeria in case you don't know. More people speak Swahili in East Africa than people that speak Yoruba in Nigeria. So what is your excuse? Also, Nigerians are the biggest critics of our own artists. We don't just support them because they are Nigerian. If they put out nonsense music that isn't sweet, Nigerians will be the first to tell them it's not sweet. In case you guys don't know, when Burna Boy first came out, Nigerians were the first to give him trouble for the way he sounds and the way he looked. Go and check the earlier comment on the video "Like to Party". You can see that Burna Boy took this criticism and went to work on improving both is sound and image, and everything worked out fantastically for him. Fast forward to today and you can hear even WHITE Americans and Europeans singing our songs even the parts that are in Yoruba. Do the Americans speak Yoruba? No. But they are vibing to it because it sounds good. Other african countries should learn to perfect their craft and put in the work instead of making excuses. Some of you have no idea about Mo hits Records. Nigerians have been doing this for a long time and perfecting the sound to what it is today. This message is not against Kenyans (I love Kenyans, they are one of our biggest supports). I just want to tell people the truth about what is going on.
Kenyan artistes should go out of their comfort zone, learn new things and use them to build a musical culture for yourself. I can tell you vividly if Amapiano was to come from Nigeria it would have blown at the inception of the sound.
Naija has learned from the West and has used art to infuse its style into what is today's naija culture. What many haven't realized is support comes from good-quality sound, vibing lyrics, and quality videos. Naija has improved on these principles to grow the industry.
If Kenyans want to go global, learn how America, Jamaica, UK and Nigeria did it. It's that simple. The musical successes of these nations isn't a secret. 1) is originality 2) collaboration 3) get ready to spend money for massive promotion and a quality product Follow these 3 and you will go global. It isn't by language. Nigerians sing in Edo, Yoruba, Igbo and Pidgin and at times add Zulu, Twi and co to their songs. Yet the world dance to our songs. K-pop is sang in Korean, and k-pop is global. I would personally want you to mix English and Swahili. You are an English speaking nation, take advantage of that. The countries I mentioned above are all English speaking and it isn't a coincidence. And get sponsors, record labels to sign you guys. The music industry is very competitive globally. To conquer the world, first conquer east Africa, the Africa, then the world. Kenyan artists should swallow their pride, us their managers to collaborate with Nigerians to penetrate the Nigerian market If you win in Nigeria, you have won in Africa, we have the population and diaspora to push your music. See black Sheriff of Ghana. 💪💪💪🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
I as a Nigerian want more collaboration and lift one another up. If a Kenyan produces a good music tomorrow l will listen and dance to the music. I am interested in the future of Africa as a continent and our people.
Thanks for supporting Nigeria music. What makes me to love Kenyan peoples is because a lady from Kenya she's a CZcamsr her CZcams name is tigress international that makes me love Kenya more. Because when she came to Nigeria for the first time she was sharing tears, I could see so much love she have for Nigeria. I can't just count how many times she has come to Nigeria. I love Kenya respect to my Kenya people. I love you all.
My beautiful queen well done, you just said it all. A Nigerian put everything in what they do Good beat and good sound, good video quality. You go bow for the result oh, isn't local language, he's saying you will be marvel for the result but in pigin English
I think Nigerian "identity" comes before its music. I identify Kenya with the Safari and a diverse economy, but not really a contemporary urban identity. From YT videos, I can tell its there - nightlife, entertainment etc., so Kenya just has to project that identity and categorize its music. Then people will buy into that identity. Afrobeats is about Nigerian confidence, "swag", love of culture (dress, slang etc.), culture of celebration etc. So I think its more than just using understandable words in the hooks. Anyway, Kenyans always show us Nigerians love so kudos to you.
I get your point about The urban selling point.Urban Kenyans seem westernized or modernized. We seem to lack a culture to sell in music. Kenyans thrive on hip-hop & dancehall vibes. Kenyan hits that do well in Kenya seem to have dancehall and hip-hop/rnb influences
But you have sense Kenyan artist should follow what our queen . Nikita kering. She doing but singing muchly in English but soon tuta adapt we Kenyans it's our time to conquer African music industry by doing what sauti sol and Nikita kering are up against
Beautiful lady the energy in you is making you sweat smile you have a great vibes girl,Kenya artists should come out from their comfort zone n collabo with 9ja boys also target Africa market first before U.S cos African market will sell them to the whole world.
I totally agree with you on the mixture of English into Swahili songs. That's exactly what is needed. Again, I love your energy and vibe; and I just subscribed by the way.💕💕💕💕👍🏽👍🏽
Nigerians exported their culture with movies and now music. If you are as far as Mauritius and you hear anything Nigeria,you are able to recognize it immediately because there is something familiar, it feels like you have heard it before. @winnie msoh let's do a collaboration on this topic.
I am a first-timer on your channel. You have earned yourself a new subscriber because you are saying the truth without hatred or envy. Though you listed some reasons Nigeria 🇳🇬(Naija) music has gained ground and recognition all over the world and there is more to it. Keep up the good work. i.e keep spreading love and no hatred throughout our continent of Africa.
I have heard this excuses many times especially from Ghanaians that Nigerian songs are popular because of the huge Nigerian Market.We as black people like to give excuses rather than putting the work. Kenya like he said is about 70 million whereas Jamaica is just about 3 million and their music for decades is played all over the world even till date.Nigerian has always had huge populations even though the population continues to grow,but that did not make Nigerian songs popular all over the world in the 80s and 90s but small country like Jamaica whose entire polution is lesser than lagos was known all over the world for reggae when there was no social media..Now,we have social media and any good music can make it big. The point is that effort has to be made and music has to evolve and appealing to a wider audience for it to be trending and be accepted by the majority. China and India has the largest population in the world.In fact, the Chinese population is almost equal to that of the whole of Africa even though it is approximately 4 times smaller,their music is not popular.So,it has nothing to do with population but how appealing the music is to the people around the world. Music is universal. One may not understand what is being said but the rhythm is what appeals
Kenyan Music will never compete with the afro beat and the rest, this gengetone thing lost it's meaning with this generation ziii.. We have very few artists in Kenya doing it so well, the soul generation, NViiri and Nyashinski, otherwise wengine huku nje ni kelele tu. This is my opinion though.
@@Msoh1 No ,,,, what about Nikita, Hart the band, Wanavokali, Watendawili, Ethan Muziki,Karun,Xeniah Manasseh, Le band the truth is the best artists in Kenya are extremely underrated.Gengetone artists get all the attention and media play and the we complain that our songs are vulgar
@@Qidawithaq This right here is the comment. The best artists in Kenya are Underground. We need a Don Jazzy or Olamide In Kenya. However, Gengetone was still vibey, They need better packaging. Black Market Records have a few hits with the likes of kina fathamore but still, It needs more Sauce like Afrobeats bana
i would advise kenyan artist to also sometimes sample afrobeats, americans are tapping into it right now, also a good song with good promotion will definitely sell, asake a Nigerian artist sings in yoruba and he is well known
Wow😍❤️🌹you melt my heart with your beautiful smile and your humour ☺️. Nigeria goes everywhere bearing their culture, that's the uniqueness in us. By the way the language is not Enugu, we speak igbo in Enugu East , Yoruba in lagos West and hausa in kano North of nigeria the 3 main ones spoken in Nigeria among some 500 other ethnic groups. We are Conservative and tribalist in nature. Love you the first time I came across you 👌. Keep doing your thing and remain blessed.
Nigerians are intentional about their music.. A Nigerian artist can get in the studio and decide to make a song that will be big in Asia.. He goes into the studio and tells the producer the idea he has.. The producer may incorporate one element of Asian music in the song and the singer/artists may shout out Asian country or capital in the song.. . Before you can say Jack Robinson, the song is going viral in Asia and everywhere else. In all, the song is melodious, the hook is catchy so people everywhere can relate to it... That is just the process even though it is not as easy as i said it..
I love you, love when you speak Swahili and even more so, when you laugh cos it's so real and infectious. Wow.....I'd so love to meet you someday. Anyway, will keep in touch. 💕💕💕👍🏽👍🏽👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nigerians do not play with Kenyans as far as afrobeats is concerned. Kenyans are loved by Nigerians Mostly for being the number 1 afrobeats support base in Africa after Nigeria Kenyans show too much love to Nigerian music & it is highly commendable & appreciated
Be creative and do more. Stop dragging this issue. Kudos to every African Artists. Time will definitely come when everyone working hard now will be celebrated globally. Nigerians started way back and have they have been working seriously hard
There are local music which are also well supported by Nijas which has been morphed internationally as Afro beats by Nigerians for greater success.Something which other Africans may not be able to do without the population which Nigeria have.
Population has nothing to do with Nigeria's success. First, Jamaica is barely 2.1 million, and their reggae conquered the world. Second, Nigeria started from nothing, and right now, Nigeria's Nollywood has surpassed India's bollywood to be the second largest movie industry in the world. Chinese and Indian movie industries were already established since the 70's. China's population is 1.39 billion. India is 1.3 billion.
The problem is in the first word that man said "waguan". You guys sing reggae, not original. You can't do reggae more than the Jamaicans, stay local and do your own thing and sell it. That's Naija style.
It doesn't matter what language when ur music is good is good so it not about ur language so stop why nigerian music is going viral is because of the way we hype our music
I dont think its about language. Nigerian artists sing in their native language as well, Asake is singing in mostly Yoruba but still went global. I think other African countries should try developing their own sound
My sister is not about population, Nigeria is a great nation, Nigeria is in league of great nations like USA, UK, etc The problem here is other African countries keep on looking down on Nigeria and putting them in the same league.
She’s not comparing pls stop this nonsense. She’s finding solution for their artist and never insulted anyone. We Nigerians should know how to talk outside some times
This is it you much talking sense ... But. this must be implemented by play 100% Kenyan music first in our local media to enable this Nigerian shit in our country..... soon we gone conquer this much love from ❤️🇱🇷🇱🇷 254pps🇰🇪🇰🇪
Your brain is leaking through your left ear ...how disrespectful can you comparing 9ja entertainment to Kenya which is like one of the 36 States in Nigeria ..your language is one of the most vastly spoken language in Africa yet Una never top chart but you want to compare ...
How is it that the Congolese soukous was able to blow up around Africa & the world then? Soukous isn't sang in a global language like English? I think a lot of factors led to Afrobeats becoming popular around the world it's hard to pick just one. I think the timing made it possible too; it happening in the social media age with trends,virility & a communication revolution spurring the genre's growth. South Africa's Amapiano is another genre that hasn't relied on English in getting a global reception. I dont think it has to do with what Kenyan music isn't doing. We shouldnt beat ourselves for this.
HE IS WRONG! SO VERY WRONG. music has nothing to do with the Language or the population (Cue in Jamaica leading the world with Reggaeton with a small Population), but everything to do with the Artists who genuinely know how to sing collaborating with other more successful Musicians. Producers who understand the business of music is more than just sound production. Marketers who are willing to spend money and take risks and Proud Kenyan people travelling, telling, talking and playing this music wherever they go. All this must be done consistently. That is how to sell Music to the world. Even if Kenyan music is just sound and no words, it would become a Genre and will still draw millions if it is of good quality. Is there any Nigerian who doesn't know Sauti Sol and Diamond Platinumz. I appreciate your sweetness by the way. Angelic behaviour.
It's not about population but How far Kenya or Ghana are able to cover market share of their country before you want to dominate other country. And other things I can say is how many ghana and Kenya are in nigeria compare to nigeria in your nigeria.
Stop smoking SK or loud you refused. See how you are showing your stupidity all over here. We will send you to Ghana if you don't stop all these nonsense. Mischeeew
Lady you try ooh no be small. Anyway I believe your analysis is mediocritic. I wonder how Ragae music became global at it peak. Probably Jamaica population was also a factor?
In much the same way that Nigeria can not be like Kenya when it come to wildlife tourism…..The truth is that Kenya can not be like Nigeria musically, accept this reality and know peace.
@@erickmodesto3751 we are talking global recognition and here you are talking east Africa domination. My brother save your energy and relax; Kenya is known for tourism and not for her lyrical prowess period.
@@erickmodesto3751 I would have agreed with you if only you had contextualized your point from the get go when you say “time will do it’s magic”. That I will totally agree to. But do not come on here and speak about Kenya music domination in the 2000s; which is a stretch. This is not your time to dominate. Support and show love to those who are currently dominating, that’s how it works.
Nigerian-pidgin is local to us lol Nigerian-pidgin has been copied and adapted in many parts of Africa. And many songs in Yoruba do well so you don't have to sing in English tbh but it can help. Most of the time Nigerians sing in Naija-pidgin and Yoruba.
Rubbish...bill board removed dancehall and replaced it with Afro beats...Nigeria alone have 220 million people. Go to Nigeria you’ll find in the malls on street in the bus cabs etc strictly Afro beats...burna boy, wiz kid, Davido, rema, Tems, techno, yeti alade, tiwa savage etc are multi millionaires and sell out 20,000 capacity venues in uk, Europe, USA, Caribbean, Australia, Canada
The opposite of what you are saying is actually true. English is probably kenya's problem,it's a borrowed language, colonial language.Nigeria use to sing in pure English language few years ago, nobody recognised those artist then. You can not be successful trying to do everything in someone else language, you got to accept and embrace yourself first before anyone can accept you. Now white people sing to Nigerian music, especially the local lyrics more than the English part. Shayoo, lgbo, buga etc. are not English language for example. The Swahili population is more than local Nigerian language population so you should be doing better if it all about population really.. Most of this Nigerian artist are mostly from the southern part of Nigeria and sings in either yoruba and lgbo.What am l saying, 75 percent of Nigerians don't understand some of these local language in these songs too, like buga won,etc only the pigin English part we all understand but we all still jam to the vibe and rhythm. There is something about singing relatable songs,the vibe and sound, not trying to sound jamaica or American to an African audience.....
@@Msoh1 It is! It's the fundamental of who we are as human beings.If we can not embrace our language and mother tongue and start doing things in it like singing,dont expect foreigners to embrace you trying to do things in foreign language. Instead,people will look to,embrace the source of that foreign language. Nigerian artists were lucky,without realising it they started singing in pigin English,a local language made up in Nigeria,so that they can reach more local audience.Before they know it the songs are crossing borders, foreigners are vibing to local languages like pigin English,yoruba,lgbo. Anyways l enjoys the conversation nonetheless, welldone! A new sub here.Thank you.
Forget about your citizens, it's will be hard to change them, your artistse should leave their comfort zone break through the Nigerians main stream market let the Nigerians vibes to your music, all Africa will follow suit including Kenyans, i tell you that the secret That's burna boy music you sang its pidgin English 😂😂😂 not English
I love your personality and perspective on the topic. You brilliantly do justice to it intelligently without cruelty. I would love my Kenyan artist to collaborate with Nigerian artists more and penetrate the Nigerian market. Nigerian can open the world to them

You guys don't understand! It's not about population size or language. This is why you guys are losing (with all due respect). It's about QUALITY, HARD WORK, and great MARKETING. Most of the popular songs from Nigeria are sang in Pidgin English and Yoruba language, and a few in Igbo; but there are over 500 languages in Nigeria in case you don't know. More people speak Swahili in East Africa than people that speak Yoruba in Nigeria. So what is your excuse?
Also, Nigerians are the biggest critics of our own artists. We don't just support them because they are Nigerian.

Some of you have no idea about Mo hits Records. Nigerians have been doing this for a long time and perfecting the sound to what it is today.
This message is not against Kenyans (I love Kenyans, they are one of our biggest supports). I just want to tell people the truth about what is going on.
Most people started watch Nigeria music videos because of the product quality. The scripting, then the dance steps.
Kenyan artistes should go out of their comfort zone, learn new things and use them to build a musical culture for yourself. I can tell you vividly if Amapiano was to come from Nigeria it would have blown at the inception of the sound.
Seconded!!!
Naija has learned from the West and has used art to infuse its style into what is today's naija culture. What many haven't realized is support comes from good-quality sound, vibing lyrics, and quality videos. Naija has improved on these principles to grow the industry.
If Kenyans want to go global, learn how America, Jamaica, UK and Nigeria did it. It's that simple. The musical successes of these nations isn't a secret.
1) is originality
2) collaboration
3) get ready to spend money for massive promotion and a quality product
Follow these 3 and you will go global.

Wow.. Thank you so much. I have a much better understanding now.
These are fact,..love u from Nigeria.
❤
if we can vibe to your beat then we are good. check out awilo song sold out in Naija and we do not understand a word
Nigerians are intentional about their music.. A Nigerian artist can get in the studio and decide to make a song that will be big in Asia.. He goes into the studio and tells the producer the idea he has.. The producer may incorporate one element of Asian music in the song and the singer/artists may shout out Asian country or capital in the song.. . Before you can say Jack Robinson, the song is going viral in Asia and everywhere else. In all, the song is melodious, the hook is catchy so people everywhere can relate to it... That is just the process even though it is not as easy as i said it..
What's there to compare with Nigerian music? Let encourage every artist to work hard and stop the unnecessary comparison
She’s not comparing pls you need to listen to her. She’s just finding solution.
Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🤍🤍
❤
I love you, love when you speak Swahili and even more so, when you laugh cos it's so real and infectious. Wow.....I'd so love to meet you someday. Anyway, will keep in touch. 💕💕💕👍🏽👍🏽👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Nice and Fair analysis. You are a pretty lady
Pleasure is mine
I love Kenya cause they love Nigeria music,,,
What's the population of Jamaica, lady? Jamaica is less than 5 million population. Dancehall and Reggea is world wide. So, y'all need to stop the cap!
Nigerians do not play with Kenyans as far as afrobeats is concerned.
Kenyans are loved by Nigerians
Mostly for being the number 1 afrobeats support base in Africa after Nigeria
Kenyans show too much love to Nigerian music & it is highly commendable & appreciated
India and china has over 1 billion each. And they have more people using the internet. Please name one musician from each country each 😁
Be creative and do more. Stop dragging this issue. Kudos to every African Artists. Time will definitely come when everyone working hard now will be celebrated globally. Nigerians started way back and have they have been working seriously hard
There are local music which are also well supported by Nijas which has been morphed internationally as Afro beats by Nigerians for greater success.Something which other Africans may not be able to do without the population which Nigeria have.
we love Kenyans you people can not do wrong in my eyes
Nigerian musicians do give aways to promote their song. Create w dance step to a song, even if it is just 4 - 6 moves. Do give away.
Population has nothing to do with Nigeria's success.
First, Jamaica is barely 2.1 million, and their reggae conquered the world.
Second, Nigeria started from nothing, and right now, Nigeria's Nollywood has surpassed India's bollywood to be the second largest movie industry in the world.
Chinese and Indian movie industries were already established since the 70's. China's population is 1.39 billion. India is 1.3 billion.
The problem is in the first word that man said "waguan". You guys sing reggae, not original. You can't do reggae more than the Jamaicans, stay local and do your own thing and sell it. That's Naija style.
It doesn't matter what language when ur music is good is good so it not about ur language so stop why nigerian music is going viral is because of the way we hype our music
My love for kenya is unexplainable especially the women ain't gon lie I love y'all
I love kenya because they dont hate or jealous like ghana and cameronians
With love from KE🙏
Cameroon are not jealous though but speaking out. Ghana is the worst that’s why they are still where they are.
I dont think its about language. Nigerian artists sing in their native language as well, Asake is singing in mostly Yoruba but still went global. I think other African countries should try developing their own sound
Our galll
❤❤❤
Your so beautiful ❤
Thank you 😊
My sister is not about population, Nigeria is a great nation, Nigeria is in league of great nations like USA, UK, etc
The problem here is other African countries keep on looking down on Nigeria and putting them in the same league.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's not the point, ok we are listening.
Buga song has a long of English please go and listen to it again
Nigeria is all over the world so stop comparing Nigeria with your country
She’s not comparing pls stop this nonsense. She’s finding solution for their artist and never insulted anyone. We Nigerians should know how to talk outside some times
Stop all these your rubbish and go back to listen to what she's saying. Always vawulence.
The beauty of Kenyan ladies is irresistible to Nigerian men. Their loveliness makes Nigerian men say, "God_ah_beg_oh!"
Winnie, will you marry me?
😂😂
This is it you much talking sense ... But. this must be implemented by play 100% Kenyan music first in our local media to enable this Nigerian shit in our country..... soon we gone conquer this much love from ❤️🇱🇷🇱🇷 254pps🇰🇪🇰🇪
Your brain is leaking through your left ear ...how disrespectful can you comparing 9ja entertainment to Kenya which is like one of the 36 States in Nigeria ..your language is one of the most vastly spoken language in Africa yet Una never top chart but you want to compare ...
How is it that the Congolese soukous was able to blow up around Africa & the world then? Soukous isn't sang in a global language like English?
I think a lot of factors led to Afrobeats becoming popular around the world it's hard to pick just one. I think the timing made it possible too; it happening in the social media age with trends,virility & a communication revolution spurring the genre's growth. South Africa's Amapiano is another genre that hasn't relied on English in getting a global reception. I dont think it has to do with what Kenyan music isn't doing. We shouldnt beat ourselves for this.
HE IS WRONG! SO VERY WRONG. music has nothing to do with the Language or the population (Cue in Jamaica leading the world with Reggaeton with a small Population), but everything to do with the Artists who genuinely know how to sing collaborating with other more successful Musicians. Producers who understand the business of music is more than just sound production. Marketers who are willing to spend money and take risks and Proud Kenyan people travelling, telling, talking and playing this music wherever they go. All this must be done consistently. That is how to sell Music to the world. Even if Kenyan music is just sound and no words, it would become a Genre and will still draw millions if it is of good quality. Is there any Nigerian who doesn't know Sauti Sol and Diamond Platinumz. I appreciate your sweetness by the way. Angelic behaviour.
But y'all obsessed with anything American, Kenya is not serious again saying you not American or British very funny
Population is not always the reason if not Korean music will not be more popular than Chinese music
Nice talk
It's not about population but How far Kenya or Ghana are able to cover market share of their country before you want to dominate other country. And other things I can say is how many ghana and Kenya are in nigeria compare to nigeria in your nigeria.
Only one state in Nigeria is bigger than Kenya
guy receive sense!! Stop been ignorant or too arrogant. Kenya is about 2/3 size of Nigeria.
@@potentiacognitionis, his statement is uncalled for. I’m a Nigerian and appreciate Kenyans for supporting Nigeria arts..
Stop smoking SK or loud you refused. See how you are showing your stupidity all over here. We will send you to Ghana if you don't stop all these nonsense. Mischeeew
Oga delete this post abeg
Why is your mind Puny fam? You wouldn't want a comparison with Kenya. In any case, we are here to benchmark from you guys about music specifically
You have my subscribe
Lady you try ooh no be small. Anyway I believe your analysis is mediocritic. I wonder how Ragae music became global at it peak. Probably Jamaica population was also a factor?
In much the same way that Nigeria can not be like Kenya when it come to wildlife tourism…..The truth is that Kenya can not be like Nigeria musically, accept this reality and know peace.
Cap.Kenyan music dominated in east Africa in the 2000s, Sauti sol are the best band in Africa. Wakadinali is the best hip-hop group in Africa
@@erickmodesto3751 we are talking global recognition and here you are talking east Africa domination.
My brother save your energy and relax; Kenya is known for tourism and not for her lyrical prowess period.
@@KayK_Eleven Burna boy was a local artist UpTo 2018. Time will do it's magic
@@KayK_Eleven Same as tyla and all those A list artist now. Our time will come
@@erickmodesto3751 I would have agreed with you if only you had contextualized your point from the get go when you say “time will do it’s magic”. That I will totally agree to. But do not come on here and speak about Kenya music domination in the 2000s; which is a stretch. This is not your time to dominate. Support and show love to those who are currently dominating, that’s how it works.
Nigerian-pidgin is local to us lol Nigerian-pidgin has been copied and adapted in many parts of Africa. And many songs in Yoruba do well so you don't have to sing in English tbh but it can help. Most of the time Nigerians sing in Naija-pidgin and Yoruba.
I see
Jamaica is 3m so cut that crap, Jamaica way above the rest of Africa in music 🎵
Rubbish...bill board removed dancehall and replaced it with Afro beats...Nigeria alone have 220 million people. Go to Nigeria you’ll find in the malls on street in the bus cabs etc strictly Afro beats...burna boy, wiz kid, Davido, rema, Tems, techno, yeti alade, tiwa savage etc are multi millionaires and sell out 20,000 capacity venues in uk, Europe, USA, Caribbean, Australia, Canada
All diamond platinum songs are stolen Nigerian songs which he changes to Swahili....
The opposite of what you are saying is actually true. English is probably kenya's problem,it's a borrowed language, colonial language.Nigeria use to sing in pure English language few years ago, nobody recognised those artist then. You can not be successful trying to do everything in someone else language, you got to accept and embrace yourself first before anyone can accept you. Now white people sing to Nigerian music, especially the local lyrics more than the English part. Shayoo, lgbo, buga etc. are not English language for example. The Swahili population is more than local Nigerian language population so you should be doing better if it all about population really.. Most of this Nigerian artist are mostly from the southern part of Nigeria and sings in either yoruba and lgbo.What am l saying, 75 percent of Nigerians don't understand some of these local language in these songs too, like buga won,etc only the pigin English part we all understand but we all still jam to the vibe and rhythm. There is something about singing relatable songs,the vibe and sound, not trying to sound jamaica or American to an African audience.....
I agree with you. Language is an identity.
@@Msoh1 It is! It's the fundamental of who we are as human beings.If we can not embrace our language and mother tongue and start doing things in it like singing,dont expect foreigners to embrace you trying to do things in foreign language. Instead,people will look to,embrace the source of that foreign language. Nigerian artists were lucky,without realising it they started singing in pigin English,a local language made up in Nigeria,so that they can reach more local audience.Before they know it the songs are crossing borders, foreigners are vibing to local languages like pigin English,yoruba,lgbo. Anyways l enjoys the conversation nonetheless, welldone! A new sub here.Thank you.
You just spoke my mind bro! be Original be your the original version of yourself❤
Forget about your citizens, it's will be hard to change them, your artistse should leave their comfort zone break through the Nigerians main stream market let the Nigerians vibes to your music, all Africa will follow suit including Kenyans, i tell you that the secret
That's burna boy music you sang its pidgin English 😂😂😂 not English
Hahahaha, 😅content
😂😂😂
Are you married Winnie?
No
@@Msoh1 are you married?
