How popular is music in Nigeria?
Nigerians especially our youths are so addicted to music that even when they're walking on the road, they plays their favorites. Our Aged men and women also have their own choice of music known as Old school music. Also, generally, during occasions like naming ceremony, child dedication, wedding party, burial ceremony, send-forth party, graduations and etc. Our people must entertain people/visitors with music. And if you don't entertain them with music, they will look down upon you. So, they highly value music.

Brief story of my favorite artist
As you may have noticed, I don't have special music artist. But, not withstanding, let me tell you about one of them known as Eric Donaldson. He is a Jamaican. He hates injustice but same time, a lover of fun. He is in love with children. If you want to know more about him, you can do research.
Nigeria is said to be the best country in music that has great talented musician who perform in international and national shows.
Really????, I never heard of that. That's excellent. Little wonder why our music artists do receive awards yearly. That's good.
They are always nominated and given award because they are too talented and consistent. They never give up and they don't lack what to sing
Hahaha, you heated the nail at the head. Instead Nigerian musicians won't sing, they must fish out something even if it's senseless and then bribe it with sweet beating causing one to dance without minding the lyrics.
Good and interesting from your end. Music is one thing that keeps the mind together, it passes message and gives joy to the mind.
I can see the list of your favourite songs, basically reggae. You must be a rasca man😄. Goodluck in the contest.

Hahaha, am not a rasca man, but one thing for sure is that I love listening to lyrics before considering the beating/sound. Niger songs brings headache

Musics in Nigeria has touched a lot of souls. Our Nigerian musicians are improving these days and I thank God for that.
I wish they will improve more and more. Imagine singing rubbish in the name of music and then garnish it with sweet beating/sound

I've always loved politicians pity for us by timaya, he's telling us the plight we go through while our leaders squander the country's finance for their benefit 😓
