Naija artists that have been longer than ten years in the music game

Music industry is like a time bomb that its only a matter of time before the now hot artist turns to a forgotten ghost or turns himself to a music icon or even a legend in extreme conditions jusst as seem in the Naija music industry and around the world.

So next time you find an artist you listened to while still in high and now you are married or about to and he is still making waves you should show some respect because its not easy for him to stay there and become an OG in the Naija music game so ji have taken time to write artists that are now confirmed OG in the Naija music game and are ever green and young in our minds and are not going anywhere soon.

Here is our list below of your Naija music OGs

1. Tubaba : Mr innocent Idibia have refused to let go of the Naija music game and is still willing to compete with much younger artists who are meant to have more content as they are still new to the game but instead few have the durability of the Africa queen croner and this gets him more endusements and shows with his slicky voice and the street love by his side and still gets awrad norminations,

While trhe other duo (Blackface and Faze) of the plantation boiz are no where to found after there dissolution only Tuface have kept it strong and going even though face went father than Blackface but recently my guy is tired of doing music and possibly retired.

2. Rudeboy and Mr p : The former duo was the hottest in Africa but at the end of the day they are still in the game and now considered by some as upcoming artists so iguess its not easy being an upcoming artist even at that they are still in the game and that i the most important thing to consider considering thet fact that they are no more together as a group.

These two started music while still kids and according to rudeboy they have been more than 20years in the game but according to there discography it have being more than 10years since they started music so we will have to take it from there as supposed to 20 something years as supposed by rudeboy.

3. Ill bliss ( Oga boss) : The now indigenous rapper once rapped strictly in English but the millennial might think that this was the way he ventured into the music game not knowing that the inverse is true when you hear songs like Oga landlord what comes to mind is how good this guy is but guess what son he have been in the game for more than a decade back in the days of the likes of Eedris Abdukareem the Nigeria Jaga Jaga crooner.

While his mates in the music have almost all retired he still keeps doing his thing and stays strong in the going and his use of Ibo language while rapping makes you to love him and let you to know that he is not going anywhere soon.

4. Timaya : The Egberi papa aka Papi chulo who i personally respect in the music game is an artist that was heavily criticized for going too deep in political cases that were normally neglected but negligence is not a thing for the Egberi papa who always speaks his mind.

Although critics have it that he no longer sings of sensitive thing that he was once known to do well which they once hated him doing but the era of pointing fingers in the music industry are over and music now more advanced and competitive like before due to may factors i guess he understands that and makes sure he stays afloat in an ever changing industry that expects a hit from artists back to back each year so haters try to understand.

You dont expect to talk about political corruption each time in your songs and expect to sell you will definitely sound boring which is the last thing to expect from artists so you always have to make sure you stay at top always.

Honorable Mentions

Don Jazzy : Even though he does little singing in his part his being part of the Naija music industry has gone a long way all the same without him there wont be the likes of Dbang, Wnde coal, Dprince, Dr sid of the Mohit squared and Tiwa savage, Ricardo banks, Korede Bello and Dija of Mavin Records he is the backbone to there success and he keeps going strong with his beat and backups.

Mi Abaga : Mr incredible has been incredible throughout the years right from the very first time he got signed to chocolate city he have succeeded in putting Naija rap on the map and still stays consistent not minding the fact that good indigenous rappers take a bigger bite when it comes to shows unlike when during his era and ofcourse not minding the fact that almost every rapper now wants to sing he always takes his place as there chairman and call them to other.
