Renowned Fuji singer, Remi Aluko has asserted that the Afrobeats icon, Wizkid improved and introduced a fresh look to the Nigerian music scene.
He clarified that the 33-year-old Grammy winner improved replay value and altered the music economy of the business.
Speaking in a talk on Echo Room, Aluko claimed that prior to Wizkid entering the music business, Nigerian songs were typically long, but he altered that by releasing shorter songs.
The Fuji star claimed that after witnessing how Wizkid’s recording technique enhanced song replay value, other musicians adopted a similar strategy.
He said;
“Wizkid did something in the Nigerian music industry. And I picked up from there. Back then, a song used to last for five or four minutes. But go and check now, Wizkid is the one that changed the method of music that you don’t need to waste music.
He changed the method of recording in Nigeria. He will bring chorus and after that he will just give you like 16 bars and after that he will go back to the chorus. If you love the music, you play it again.”
