I have been out of the nigerian music scene for a while. Last great song I heard was Mo sori ire by Paul Dairo before I left the country. When I heard Olufunmi by styl plus, I was so impressed that I asked my sister back home to comb the stores and get me some cds. She got me a few and I have been listening to them. My people, make I tell you, I am very impressed.

Sammy Okposo : Very talented.
Mike Aremu and his fuji gospel jazz : I was just digging it all by myself this weekend. I was on a plane and the lady next to me was wondering : is she okay ? I was just tapping and shaking.
As for styl plus, I thought that Olufunmi was a fluke, but they have a new song ' pour your wine' or something. I loved it. Just wanted someone to pour me some wine!!!
Sunny Neji ( hope I have the name right) : Great too. Am at work now , so when I get home, I will go check on what else I got , listen to them and review them too.

I think the development of Nigerian music is a great reflection on the versatility and ruggedness of artistes in Nigeria. If Nigerians can produce such high quality music under such horrible circumstances, then i believe that there is hope for the movie industry as well.
Just wanted to share. I was very impressed with the quality of music I heard.

Gracias.

There're many new artist now, you should listen to Gbedu.com, Abeokuta.org and Radiopalmwine.com and you can catch up with most of them. Those three places got tons of Naija songs, they all free to listen and request songs.

Abeg Mike Aremu is a star waiting to shine he was in my church two sundays ago to lead us in Praise and worshinp on our thankgiving sunday abeg you want to try the way everyone was dancing? even me sef I was just dancing. the guy is good I had to buy two of his Cd's that day. I also agree with you as per the 'pour her wine' by Styl-plus I think that song is heavy i just love it. Sunny Nneji's Oruka is another nice one but you can only play that song in weddings but I like it all the same. Our Nigerian aritists sure do have talents and I give to the one's you mentioned they're all good.
