Nigerian music is steadily becoming a globally acclaimed type of sound in the world today, even from our very own AfroBeat to our ‘pon pon’ sounds.
We’re beginning to peak at good spots on rankings worldwide which is a good impression, the likes of Maleek Berry, Ayo Jay are doing very fine. And including Wizkid and Davido flourishing with their international deals.
Below here we will take a look at very few of our acts that would probably do fine if they get a decent deal with a foreign music entertainment outfit.
1. Burna Boy
Burna is a young and exciting entertainer that blends his dancehall genre of music with AfroBeat and hip hop, he’s a typical Nigerian act that can pass his music through different genres of music.
Burna can easily burst onto the international scene in a blink of an eye, once he gets a few collabos that would shoot his shots, he’s blown! he’s one consistent act and that’s it.
2. Simi
You probably know this our songstress is that lady with a killer voice. She’s a typical singer that sings from what’s happening, the reality and the ‘koko‘. She makes the ‘pon pon’ and the RnB too. She could probably be chasing Rihanna when she gets there. Who knows? Lol.
3. Maleek Berry
He’s already making his name abroad but to keep it blazing he needs that feeling of an international record deal. He’s even currently fueling his output himself with the aid of his own imprint, Berry’s Room. After just being affiliated with Wizkid’s Starboy.
Berry is one top-notch music writer with a bright future even if he goes abroad.
4. YCee
The self-acclaimed, Omo Alhaji, has a deal with SONY Music Africa but it does not really sound valid in any direction, if he gets the chances to ink a deal with a serious foreign imprint, he would obviously hit the ground running with his always blazing rap bars. Ycee is dope in all directions, he has that value in him, he’s filled with talent that would be appreciated anywhere.
