2face Idibia Blast National Broadcasting Commission Over Bad Songs Flooding The Airwaves

Legendary musician, 2face Idibia in a chat with E-Daily highlighted some of the challenges facing the Nigerian music industry.

According to the veteran, “ the crap music all over the place now is because the gate keepers play good songs when people are asleep at night; when there is no one to listen to the music. So if you do that kind of music and you take it to the radio and they refuse to play it, what do you do? And most of the financial back up artistes get is from people who want to make their money back immediately’.

2face Idibia went on to say, ‘people are afraid of investing their money on artistes who sing good music..Though the music will still be entertaining but the ear of the people has changed. You and I know that on a normal day it is good music we listen to, except when we go to parties. The youths have their mind tuned to the kind of music being made now; it’s difficult to remove it. It has to be a deliberate action to do so ‘, he said.
.
Speaking further, he took a swipe at the National Broadcasting Commission, lamenting how the regulatory body’s value systems have changed drastically.

“Before NBC is able to ban any music, it has gone popular already. That means they didn’t even hear it on time in the first place. It’s after the song has gone viral that they will want to ban it. No one is doing any work.

It is very important that we have a responsible government and to have that we must have responsible people because if we don’t have responsible people, this is the kind of government we will keep having”, he said.

Davido and Wizkid have engaged in a heated war of words on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The drama started in the early hours of Monday after the ‘Ojuelegba’ hitmaker mocked Davido and Don Jazzy, the Mavin Records head honcho.

Wizkid called Don Jazzy an “influencer” while taunting Davido with a video of him on his knees, pleading and crying after a fan asked him to release new music.

The singer’s posts attracted criticism from a segment of social media users, including celebrities.

In a flurry of tweets on Monday evening, the ‘Timeless’ hitmaker aimed a thinly veiled dig at Wizkid, implying that he is now online to take on his adversaries.

“When LIGHT comes darkness VANISHES!!! LETS GET ACTIVE!! Montego Bay we deyaaaaaaa. Dem no know ur gbedu again. I can’t wait till 20 years from now … enjoy ur time,” he wrote.

“They were trying to distract us baby no mind them.”

Amid Davido’s series of posts, Wizkid wrote: “U know what..no point. delusional niggas pray for y’all”.

“WE NOT DELUSIONAL YOU’RE A SICK MAN,” Davido retorted.

Replying to Davido, Wizkid reshared a video of his colleague on his knees, crying and begging alongside an emoji of himself laughing.

In a follow-up post, Davido wrote: “That’s what I thought. Nothing to say! Exactly why I stopped wasting my clout and jeopardizing my millions of usd of endorsements on someone whose career was resurrected a few years ago just to die again. NEXT!!”

Wizkid fired back at Davido who referred to as “my boy”. He also argued that Davido cannot attain his level in the music industry. He also described Davido as “an influencer” who cannot do without a “songwriter”.

I got nun to say to u my boy! I can retire today and you still not on my level. You be influencer with a song writer . Wish u well,” he wrote.
