Even in death he still remains my favourite Nigerian musician, I remembered when I was small I use to watch this music in 1991 after Delta state was created from the old Bendel, he was a talented musician.
Thanks to New York, Diana Strong and all that contributed to your success for the opportunity to speak for the poor. New York saw what needs to be fixed globally irrespective of your place of birth if you send the right message. Your ability to send the message effectively on time will keep this music alive. many years to come. Always remember that this message is not about New York. It is a global problem. Poorverty and creativity came from the same line of birth but one is higher than the other. After all life is short. One hundred years is not forever. I will support this video for a long time. Always remwmber, dive deeoer.
Did anyone hear him say inna Lasgidi stylee. Wow Wow Wow! So the word Lasgidi which most people use to refer to Lagos State Nigeria has been in existence in the 80s or 90s. Hahahahaha REST IN PEACE MAJEK This is 2022 and am still enjoying his song
I remember when this video was shown on BENDEL BROADCASTING SERVICE in 1991, mehn thats when i n my brothers started dreaming of coming to EUROPE AND AMERICA.
I best song in my childhood days.I still play it,so much memories about majek but no Nigerian remembers his day like marley's day or night.One of the greatest in the world.RIP Legend.
This brings great tears to my eyes....majek was a gem....so handsome...so talented....a mad guitarist....Benin city breed .... Nigerian breed....Rest on prisoner of conscience!...rest on....watching in 2022
@@sundayajewole3041 he grew up in Benin city....he relates more with the Bini tribe than he does ilesha...I have never heard majek sing in Yoruba before ..but he sings in Benin...He was ones in late Ambassador Osayomore Joseph's band in the 80s briefly I think.....ask majek he go tell you say him be Benin boy....so calm down
@@skybench100 It wasn't Igbo. He went into deep spiritual nonsense, new age rubbish, and saw more than his eyes could carry. He wanted to have worldwide fame. His cousin said everything.
Thank you....Never get tired of seeing this great video, his music or re-living this time (1990-91), as we saw Prisoners of Conscience a few times in NYC: Kilamanjaro, 2x back-to-back around Thanksgiving time '91 i think, @ Wetlands, and some other place (Indigo Blues?). All were 110%...Blessings....
Thanks for sharing, if you have his live performance, majek live in lagos 1991,most of the ones I saw here on RUclips ain't good, audio is just too horrible.. Thanks bro 🙏 🇳🇬 🇰🇼
Sorry, just seeing this. You mean, thanks sis. 😉 I do have a couple of performances with Majek, but only the ones that I shot, not other peoples'. Hope to get them digitized a little later this year and then will remaster them, Jah willing...
Watching this December 2022 with tears rolling down my cheeks. I fear we are losing all the good people and good things in this country. Please God Almighty, heal this country, Nigeria
Do you know what it means to compete with Michael Jackson on Bill Boards in America and the world at large? Majek pulled that stunt because He was a raw talent. I hardly see this quality of Music mastery in our generation. Na only breats we sabi
Hello, please can we get the full video of majek fashek when he spoke about the conscious people and how he was the spokesperson for the oppressed in Nigeria? Thanks alot
Wow I get to know about Majek Fashek in the year 2022 but I could recall I've watched his music video (So long) frim television when I was a kid, so I came here and search for his name and saw this video, what a handsome, talented singer who died from oesophagus cancer on 1st June 2021. 😭
Even in death he still remains my favourite Nigerian musician, I remembered when I was small I use to watch this music in 1991 after Delta state was created from the old Bendel, he was a talented musician.
For real I play it every day till ds moni
Just the same way my brother and I loved to vibe to this on TV back then in the 90s. 😅😂
Me too what a beautiful memory...
Nigeria talented musician.
Very handsome man. He sounds like Bob Marley. Rest in peace Legend.
One of the great artist in Nigeria hestoy
He really was a handsome man. Drugs are evil.

Wat a performer he was! I'm glad you came in my generation 💕

Hahahahaha REST IN PEACE MAJEK
This is 2022 and am still enjoying his song
Thanks for the extra info.!
Exactly...heard it at the end of the song...
Lasgid has been used since the early 80s or perhaps the late 70s when Lagos was at the height of its glory and fun days
Yes, the term lasgidi its an old terminology but the young ones think it started a few years ago
Even in 2024
I remember when this video was shown on BENDEL BROADCASTING SERVICE in 1991, mehn thats when i n my brothers started dreaming of coming to EUROPE AND AMERICA.
Hope you still made the trip

Seeing this song for the first time from a Twitter link. Great piece
So handsome. He sounds like Bob Marley and looks like Johnny Depp
Well, I don't see the resemblance to Depp or Marley, but it's all in the eyes of the beholder. Majek was an original.
