The Steady Decline of Contents In Our Music Industry.

They say content is King, staying real is originality. But can this be said about Nigeria Entertainment Industry?
It has gotten to a stage where we need to remind our Music Directors, Producers and singers that everything is not about "Pangolo" beat. We have to let them know it is not until when they sexually arouse us with lewd ladies rocking in their video shoot that we will become interested.

Unfortunately, Most Nigerians especially youth have forgotten songs with lyrical and rich contents and prefer to shake their bums and throw "Dabs," so long the song have a fast and danceable beat.
We prefer to patronise noise makers, one musician will sit down somewhere and write imaginary lines, before you say Jack, he is already at the studio with his producers looking for danceable beats.
We have used this habit to force those Song writers who are ready to give us rich contents to start singing out of place.
In Nigeria, only few artistes like Timi Dakolo, Darey, 2face, ASA amongst others are still holding onto rich contents and nice beats.

For those song writers that deviated and decided to go commercial, I wouldn't blame them because we refused to patronized and forced them to start singing to our popular " Pangolo Beats." Passion without money is a joke.
Therefore, to be able to bring back rich contents to Nigeria music, we have to let musicians know it is not about the beat,nude pictures or dance but about the contents that are inspirational.
