The past few years has seen Nigerian music explode all over the world, from D'Banj scoring a number one in the UK with "Oliver Twist" to Wizkid's collaborations with the likes of Drake, Skepta. and French Montana. While in Lagos we got three of the scene's most influential pioneers, Don Jazzy, DJ Jimmy Jatt & Dr. Sid discuss the evolution of Nigerian music over the past two decades, the current musical climate in Nigeria, and how the term "Afrobeats" can be problematic.
This project is brought to you in collaboration with the British Council. Our shared vision for Gateways Nigeria is to build cultural connections and create links between British and Nigerian artists.

I think chris brown is more humane, simpler than drake. Inside me I think Wizkid contributed more in that song "dance", but because drake is kind of proud person,he wouldn't admit or even allow Wizzy to sing his own part.

Why complain why not create different genre and educate the people via Nigerian tv that way we can have categories.
