Top 13 artistes OF
2013
2013 WAS A BIG YEAR FOR NIGERIAN MUSIC AND QUITE A NUMBER OF ARTISTES LIVED UP TO
EXPECTATION. I AM TALKING SOLD OUT SHOWS, HIT SINGLES, INTERNATIONAL TOURS AND FOR
SOME, ENDORSEMENT DEALS..
FOR ME THESE ARE MY TOP 10 ARTISTES DAT ROCKED 2013.
2---KCEE oya Limpopo
or u pull over... the choice is urs.. i gave up on this dude when kceepresh
broke up.. now i realise i was wrong. And m not too proud to admit it.. kcee
jst discovered his style and he is sticking to it.. i believe 2014 might be his
year if he sticks with the best producers..
3---WIZKID(23).. since releasing holla at ur boy in 2009..
wizkid has been consistent in his music. so consistent dat almost all his
songs seem to have d same progressions... but no doubt they are hits..... Real
name ayodeji Ibrahim balogun.. BET awards winner, mobo awards winner, channel o
awards winner.. And so on.. his international awards and collabos could be used as advantage if he is to be
compared with davido. Plus he was ranked 5th on forbes list of top
10 bankable African artistes... though arrogant.. i think he has worked for his
achievements.
4----DAVIDO(21)..
household name.. a young man who didn’t let the wealth of his father
deter him from following his dream.. now he’s earning his owns bucks (plus his
dad’s)... skelewu was made popular by this dude.. some say the skelewu dance is
just improved makkossa .. i say well improved... to come at a time when the
Ghanaian azonto dance was taking over the Nigerian music scene and indeed
Africa.. i can only say he scaled the ‘’ewu’’.. go figure!!!!
5...OLAMIDE .. baddest guy ever liveth.. as he calls himself
is highly respected among his colleagues. His style , out of dis world.. d hits
just keep coming and u enjoy it weda u
understand Yoruba or not.. now when u hear first of all, u unconsciously
respond with ‘’ go down low’’
6----BURNA BOY(23 dis year).. with burna boy’s speedy rise
in the music scene i can only say yawa dey...
7---Phyno.. my rapper
of the year. My next rated rapper.... spits in ibo fluently n we still love
it.. the rhymes are off the hook., i’ll let you get lost in his sound...
8---SEAN TIZZLE( controversial winner of the best new
artiste at the headies) sho lee is d song dat shot him to limelihght.. great
singer, signed to a new label owned by dtunes , producer of iyanya’s kukere, ur
waist, flavour and sean tizzle’s sho lee..
9---FLAVOUR... one of my favourite artistes ever.. great
with live bands cos that’s where he started from. Great voice, great
productions in all his songs. I mean all. One time rave of the moment.... i
call him d reigning highlife king of the new generation...
10..PSQUARE.. i put them on the list cos they try so hard to
stay relevant and they do a great job.. in their 30s and still doin it
good... i personally think personally
rocked 2013 on a personal note.. u get it?..
11..ICE PRINCE.... the man with some of the best rhymes in
the rap game.. was live at the BET awards where he won best international act
Africa last year..the man whom some say pushed M.I off the top of the rap list... great job with
international collabos especially iswear ft French Montana...
12.Tiwa savage.. the only female on the list is no doubt a
strong woman.. got married last year.. but dats not why she’s on my list.. d
song eminando grew on me.. cos i didn’t like it at 1st.. even tho i
tend to like everything don jazzy’s on, this was different.. but it eventually
grew on me..it was already a hit song... eminando...African Barbie...
13...PATORANKING.. spread d word, i’m a fan of patoranking..
one song , yes. But i haven’t heard a naija reggae song dat caught my attention
so fast .. plus the boy’s got an attitude.. if i owned a label i would gladly
sign patoranking.. i think he’s got prospects.. time will tell.... the song is
titled alubarika ft timaya...
