Crazy boys abi voices too? Plantashun boiz were almost like them. sad

I think you meant to say "DREADY BOYZ",their album was sponsored by Coca-cola back then.
Met them once in Asaba in '92 and we had a pic together as I had a Canon camera back then.

Wu Zetian: I can't remember the guy or the name of the song but it was one of my childhood fav. I would hug anyone that remembers the song embarassed, I was such a little kid when the song came out. The video was shot in the snow and the guy had scanty dreadlocks.


"You say my riches are far too much......
........
Wadada Wadada.......sing for everyone.......
.....

You say Wada! Wada! Sing for everyone-na......."

@50 calibre: Yep, I remember the Carolina song.

The name of d artiste was *INFERNO" he was based in the UK wen he sang that "wadada song"

those day these ladies where at the top of their game no scandals cos everyones music was unique

vero was different
onyeka fuses pop with africa folklores
tina onwudiwe showcased the rich african culture
evi edna sang reggae from her heart
stella monye was known as the samba queen
xh
xty esien was a respected lady of songa, all young girls wayback then looked up to her
uche ibeto was from a very rich fam yet she was humble doing her thing!

The days when people rarely buy Nigerian CDS, those days when Nigerian music was RARELY played at parties. Let's be honest, our music is better now!

Oya Nairaland sing along . . . .

Alex O.


It takes some time to bubble and shuffle
After-all nah hussle and bustle
Everybody wan talk in face
And nobody wan talk in age

If you just go ask a lagos mama say
Nah how many years you de celebrate
She holla and halla and shout back at you
And Say nah wetin be your bisness

I fit celebrate 21 today
And the last time nah 22
The next one fit be 20
So just bubble and shuffle
And forget about my age.

grin grin grin MI, Mode 9... got nothing on this rap.
Re: Nigerian Music In The Good Old Days by Handsomeemmy(m): 7:34am On Oct 25, 2013
Oldies all the way, wonderful music, great concept, i am thrilled to be part of the generation that listen to most of these musician though very very young then.

The days of TV programme like checkmate, indian movie of 3 hours+

hey, you guys have not mention anything from Ebenezer Obey.

There is the song also maybe by christy,

Oun to ba dari ma ra fun omomi, Joromi, and lot more, growing up was wonderful. Listening to music from my mum Tradient Radio and Dad turn table.

God bless you OP....you will find more mature nairalander here.

Do you notice that some of the music sang meaningful song even though they didn't sing in their language? That was when Nigeria was highly di-trabalize before the Babaginda era.

SmashingM: I prefer these music of yesteryears to the noise of nowadays. People call me old school but i don't mind
rather be an old school than go deaf with these unsonorous harps called new school music! #gbam#
