A comparison has been made between Asake‘s buzz right now to that of Naira Marley in 2019, but don’t let us forget quickly how Naira Marley influenced many Nigerian youths.
A few days ago, we asked if Asake is on the level as Naira Marley in 2019, and many shared their opinion.
I remember when Naira Marley drop “Soapy“, the street was not the same, the dance alone was a virus not to talk of “Tesumole” which came with another viral dance.
In 2019, Naira Marley had 6 songs that hit No. 1 on Apple Music: “Am I A Yahoo Boy” “Opotoyi” “Soapy” “Mafo” “Pxta” “Tesumole“.
This was Naira Marley at the 02 arena in 2019
When Naira Marley was popping, there was no social media influence, no popular record label, Naira Marley naturally became a street king.
Naira Marley had the country on lockdown. EFCC was out for him, NCC was ready to ban every song, Parents and school authorities used him as a bad example but Streets loved his songs.
Even our parents on a lowkey dey dance to Naira Marley’s song.
