Night Time Musing - Unbox Therapy

The decision to be on social media e.g Instagram, facebook, twitter, etc for most is a personal one, in most cases you did it cause you wanted to not because anyone asked you to.

Nigeria's Music Scene,One View

As always I love documenting some of my thoughts and today, I had to provide a brief overview of the Nigerian music scene to a Senior Lecturer in Music Technology & Production in a British University and these were my take on the industry, based on typical commentaries, discuss and research on the Nigerian music scene. Practitioners within the sectors, lovers of African and Nigerian music feel free to agree,disagree or add your thoughts.

This growth especially within the last decade has been largely centred around Afrobeat and High life Music (traditional african sounds/lyrics, fused with hip hop or other western sounds ) th
