@femipeter7308 Год назад

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.
