Music is, without doubt, one of Nigeria’s biggest exports. It has placed the country on the global stage, and not only does it get the world dancing, but it has also attracted some of the biggest accolades. Wizkid and Burna Boy clinched Grammy Awards only a few months ago, Nigerian songs have been featured on the soundtracks of international movies and video games, and Nigerian artistes are currently in high demand: Justin Bieber recently featured Omah Lay on a remix of the hit single “Peaches”, and Davido has scored multiple collaborations with foreign acts. x It is for this reason that many young Nigerians aspire to take up a career in music. They have seen the success stories of some of Nigeria’s biggest pop stars, and they are motivated to dream. From Ikeja to Port Harcourt to Enugu, a good number of Nigerian youths study the electrifying performances delivered by the likes of JoeBoy and Fireboy DML, and hope that one day, they too would be at the receiving end of thunderous applause at sold-out concerts where adoring fans sing along to their lyrics word for word.
