Was there ever a time when Nigerian music felt better than now? Gbemi and Toolz are back with a brand-new episode of the OffAir Show and theyâre taking us on a nostalgic ride through the soundtracks of our lives.
In this episode, theyâre joined by Motolani Alake, respected music executive and pop culture commentator, and they dive deep into âThe Sweetest Era of Music in Nigeriaâ, exploring the eras that shaped the industry into the global powerhouse it is today.
From Fela Kutiâs Afrobeat revolution to the Hip-Hop and R&B vibes of the early 2000s with StylâPlus, Plantashun Boiz, and 2Baba, and the Afropop and Dancehall fusion that gave us icons like Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, and Tiwa Savage, no era is left unturned.
Of course, they also weigh in on the 2020s Afrobeats-to-the-world movementâwhen Nigerian sounds truly started ruling international charts. So, which era had the most cultural impact? And is today really the sweetest era of Nigerian music, or just the loudest?
Whether youâre all about old-school anthems or you live for todayâs hits, this episode is filled with history, nostalgia, and hot takes.
