Nigeria. And Some Great Songs from the African Nation

Nigeria has been in the news recently. Firstly, because it banned Twitter on its land and shifted to its Indian alternative – Koo, and secondly because it has been reported that it could become the most populated country in the world by the end of the century. Both these news pieces intrigued me. I am sure there’s something unique about this land. What do you think it is like to live there? I got around to researching around about their pop culture and got straight down to what matters the most – music. These are links to some of the Nigerian songs I am hooked onto these days. I am sure they’ll get your foot tapping too:

Fav 1: Afro B – Drogba (Joanna)

Fav 2: Pheno Ambro – mon bb

I came across some really cool artists I’d like to mention here just in case you want to explore further:

  • DaVido
  • Fela Kuti
  • William Onyeabor (Fantastic Man)

Also featuring in my list of favorites is Machel Montano. If you want to go the way of modern music, don’t miss out on Olamide.
