His view on the Nigerian music
The Adroit Nigerian Afrobeat singer when asked about Nigerian music said, the music industry in Nigeria has begun experimenting and creating songs that have a specific concept. The music is not empty, it carries powerful messages. The number of music lovers who look out for meaningful music has increased considerably which led to the expansion of the music market. According to him, conscious music will reign in Nigeria predominantly.
According to the Afrobeat singer, Nigeria was once dominated by stereotyped music where there was no reason why the song was created and sung. There was no depth in the songs and no clarification could be given why the songs were written and produced. The only reason that could be cited behind such songs was that they could be played at a party, and people can dance to them and enjoy them. It was only preferred by the DJs to play at parties or pubs.
But he strongly believes that the era of empty, baseless music has evaded and been replaced by meaningful songs with definite meaning and messages. Chyzzi says that artists like 2Baba, Wizkid, Burna Boy and many others have propagated conscious music. They have been the forerunner of music that talks about society, instills values and entertainingly teaches morality.
