    Welldone my brother Agbaletu. Can you please research on Funmilayo Ranko and do a documentary about her. Funmilayo Ranko used to be a stage theatre actor in the 70's.She is a lady but she behaves like men and act like men. Every thing about her is feminine.

    How did you know most of the history of musians that you have been metioning their names and their years of play given your age. I also watched your interview with Chief Commander Obey. I could see that you were helping him to remember some artists although Obey did not lose his memory. I want to commend you for a job weldone.Keep it up. I will continue to listen to your interview.

      When you fight life, always remember that , life will fight you back someday. No leader would open his eyes and allow his career to crash, in the name of what ? do good, and it will follow you. KSA is not the only musician in Nigeria that his band boys left, i still dont know why all these digging of past issues that could easily generate unnecessary controversy among fans

    Mr Adeyanju, I would like to express my appreciation for the exceptional content and insightful interviews that your show consistently delivers, shedding light on various aspects of the entertainment industry. I believe your platform plays a significant role in celebrating our unsung heros.
    I am reaching out today to bring to your attention an extraordinary individual who has made significant contributions to the Nigerian music industry. This individual, despite his immense talent and accomplishments, remains relatively unknown to the general public.
    Eng Emmanuel Odenusi is a true unsung hero, who played a significant role as sound engineer for some of our legendary musicians like Fela, kind Sunny Ade and Ayinla Omowura to mention a few.
    However, his story and journey have not received the recognition he rightfully deserve. Fortunately your are the only thread that is knitting the past with the present.
    By featuring him on your show, we will ones again have a front row seat hence, opportunity to have insights to his contribution to Nigerian music industry.
    Engineer Odenusi is in his 80s

      Thank you so very much sir. I so appreciate your message and also, thank you for appreciating the very little I could do as the means I have has permitted me so far.
      I'm hopeful of an improvement with time.
      I'll make a chat with Pa Odenusi an assignment immediately.
      I won't mind if you have any lead to him, perhaps a phone number or something.
      My WhatsApp and phone number is 08027888329 or 08033852815.
      I appreciate you so sincerely sir.

Through your interviews, I have learned a lot about the history of Nigerian music and musicians, and I have heard scoops about them I would never have known. You clearly put a lot of passion and effort into your work, and I give you kudos for that. You also have a good memory and great interview skills. If you make all the money you deserve it.

      No slander would be tolerated against Dele Adeyanju. He is doing us a great service, filling up important gaps in the history of Nigerian music.
      I pray that one day he would have enough resources to produce full documentary series for Netflix on the History Of Yoruba Music.
