THE ISSUE WITH THE MTV BASE NIJA'S ALL TIME BEST
This List Needs Some Overhauling
Ok, So MTV BASE AFRICA has just released their list of THE BEST NAIJA TRACKS EVER, without actually including tracks that have ingrained themselves in our heads over the years and still remain a national favorite, though some of the tracks listed have definitely earned their spot, but to find that the list omits tracks like Fela Kuti - Water, Sound Sultan - Area, Mo' hit allstars - Booty call, Tony Tetuila - My Car amongst other all time Best Naija tracks is almost unforgivable. Below is the list...
1. 2FACE – AFRICAN QUEEN
2. 9ICE – GONGO ASO
3. D’BANJ – OLIVER TWIST
4. P SQUARE FT. WAJE – DO ME
6. DAVIDO – DAMI DURO
7. ICE PRINCE – OLEKU
8. D’BANJ – WHY ME
9. M.I – SAFE
10. OLU MAINTAIN – YAHOOZE
11. NAETO C – KINI BIG DEAL
12. DAVIDO – SKELEWU
13. BANKY W – LAGOS PARTY
14. WIZKID – PAKURUMO
15. ASA – JAILER
16. P -SQUARE – CHOP MY MONEY
17. WANDE COAL – BUMPER TO BUMPER
18. DR SID – SURULERE
19. FLAVOUR – NWA BABY REMIX
20. KCEE – LIMPOPO
Artistes like Iyanya, Eedris Abdulkareem amongst others have come out to blast the list arguing it should be re-titled to Top 20 Songs of Now instead, With Iyanya claiming Kukere should have been on the list.3. D’BANJ – OLIVER TWIST
