What's the difference between Mr Macaroni and BurnaBoy... Both rebuffed Sowore... I'd really like to know why one is a hero and the other a villain.
Macaroni is in Lagos so he could easily attend the protests... BurnaBoy isn't so he couldn't.
There's a dangerous mob culture that we have. It stems from jealousy if you ask me. Artistes hardly blow at home then once they do a small group try to appropriate their success for their permanent deployment. I don't blame them tho. Our entertainment is tailored to appeal to the
Unenlightened masses all to maximize profit. Darey was pushed aside for BabaFryo who was much less articulate but was the perfect sell to the mass multitude who also aren't articulate. They lapped it up because for once, one of theirs had been included in the celebrity circle.
Little by little the quality of entertainment didn't matter, any rubbish could be taken and forced down our throats by repetitive airplay on TV and radio. Dudupa music was born and people who had skill were cut off. I'm not sure I have enough knowledge of music to go much
Further. Perhaps @chukaobi can help. What scares me tho is the hungry, baying for blood when a 'celebrity' doesn't do as the mob wishes. I understand if the celeb is bad and is aiding the goverment to do wrong, but if Anthony Joshua doesn't want to protest leave him alone.
People in their 50s sitting at home saying cancel Burna... He's the ONLY one singing conscious music. Do you know the commercial risk? Everyone else sing benz and ass. But until he comes wearing Fela's pant we won't be happy. If they shoot him will you beg his mother?
Sowore was the first to call BurnaBoy to protest and he understandably refused. Next thing we poured the anger of 10,000 SARS victims on his head. The dude is not yet 30.... Meanwhile we're singing AtikuKawai for a septugenarian thief...
SARS have been banned and some are still calling for him to be cancelled. It just seems unnecessarily malicious to me. If he revokes our citizenship we'll still moan... It's not right.
