Top 10 Greatest Nigerian *Artists* of all time(all genre)
1. Fela anikulapo kuti
This shouldn't even be a question or a debate. Man singlehandedly fussed jazz, funk, Ghanian highlife to a style called afro beat. He's the GOAT for a reason

Any list without the King is invalid. He's regarded as one of the first African pop musican to gain international success. He's also one of the most influential musicians of all time.

4. Steven Osita Osadebe5
He's widely regarded as the king of highlife. He had a successful career that lasted for almost 4 decades, now that's what you call longevity. Being at the top of your game for a 40years isn't for everyone.

5. Ebenezer Obey
The chief commander is on a league of his own when it comes to juju music. No one touches him, he's an icon for a reason.

6. Don Jazzy
Is there anything the Don can't do? He's easily the most complete artist on this list. Can produce (No1 easily), sing and write. He brought us D Bang, Wande coal, rema, korede Bello, Ricardo banks and many more.

7. Majek Fashek
Often dubbed as the Nigerian Bob Marley. When it comes to reggae he was on another level. He also has multiple evergreen songs. He surely deserves a spot here.

8. ASA
ASA is a ridiculous talent. Her first album was released in 2007 and it changed pop game in Nigeria forever. Her hits are evergreen and her recent album Lucid shows she's still at the top of her game. She's the most underrated artist on this list.

9. P-Square
They should be higher than this. They're easily the most successful duo in Nigerian music. No one touches them during their prime. Anything they release would definitely be an inevitable hit. It's such a sad thing they broke up. A formidable duo

10. wizKid
I reckon in the next 5 years he'd challenge 2face for the second spot or who knows No1?? The sky is the limit for him and he's potentials are unmatched.
