Akon is highly knowledgeable about the Nigerian Music industry. His analysis on Davido, Wizkid and Burna is on point

THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL INTERVIEW.....PROUD OF MY BLACKNESS🙏💪..Thank you uncle Sway..
Many More wins ahead of him … He as always been an advocate of Nigeria music one of the very few to collaborate with our artists back then in the late 2000’s … glad to see the rest of the world is catching up to the beautiful music coming out of Nigeria and Africa as a whole 🇳🇬❤️
Akon is my Legend and I love the way he spoke about African Artist.
I love his duets with MJ and Nippy. He brought out their sounds that we are used to.

Gr8 interview
U had the answer Sway
Akon is truly a legend. Wizkid is Yoruba not Igbo. The two tribes are pretty much into each other most importantly. They marry each other and work well together. Tekno is Igbo. Such a genius. He wrote and produced if for Davido who is Yoruba boy. Oxlade's Kulosa was produced by another Ozedikus another igbo boy. Another genius too. Oxlade is Yoruba. Ozedikus the maker of the beat is Igbo. Dbanj and Don Jazzy are from these two tribes. The day these two tribes come together in politics and governance. The world will return back to Africa. For the record, most African Americans are from these two tribes.
Oga no one asked you to explain.
Goddamn all that for what?
@@s.o7003 You are rude
