“God-Win” singer Korede Bello said the quality of Nigeria music has been dropped lately.
He argued during a chat on Hip TV with Kim Oprah that younger artists coming into the scene have not kept up with the standards, because they lack the experience to make quality music.
He claimed that the younger an artist attains stardom, the more the quality of their music declines.
“When you start to have young artists blowing up, the quality of the music starts to reduce because they don’t have quality experiences,” Bello said.
“They don’t know how to live yet. Young people don’t yet know how to live, they just know that they are living. They want to live large, so that’s what they’re going to sing about.
“If you listen to an African China, where he’s coming from, he has seen things. Timaya, Fela—all have experiences. Their songs are expressions of reality.
“We should not blame these young artists; you can only give what you have.”
