Nobody Likes Your Stuff Anymore – Brymo Tells Wizkid, Burna Boy, Davido To Leave Music For Younger Artistes
Nigerian singer Brymo has urged some of the country’s biggest music stars to step back from the spotlight and allow younger talents to take centre stage in the industry.
Naija News reports that the singer made the remark during a recent interview on TVC, where he spoke about the current state of Nigerian music and the dominance of a few established names.
According to him, conversations around the industry continue to revolve around top stars such as Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy, while younger artistes who should be leading the pop music scene are not receiving enough attention.
Brymo argued that the long-running “Big 3” discussion has continued to keep focus on a small group of artistes, making it harder for newer acts to enjoy the level of recognition they deserve.
He said attention should shift from complaints about the quality of music coming from younger singers to the way some veterans continue to occupy the biggest space in public discussions.
He said, “We need to stop talking about how the new artists don’t have lyrical substance and focus on how some artists want to lock down the industry for themselves with the ‘Big 3’ narrative and continue reigning forever.
“They should shift aside. Right now, Rema should be the biggest pop star in the country without any doubt. All this talk about Wizkid, 2Face, Olamide, Burna Boy. Why? In the Pop scene?? Wetin dem dey sing? You can plug the radio but nobody likes your stuff anymore. Move aside, evolve.”
