Kenny Blaq: I Didn’t Start Music Comedy but Added a Unique Vibe
In a recent interview with Hip TV, popular comedian Kenny Blaq clarified a common misconception about his role in the development of music comedy in Nigeria.
Contrary to some beliefs, he did not originate the genre. Instead, Blaq acknowledged the contributions of pioneers such as the late Gbenga Adeboye, CD John, and others, who laid the groundwork for music comedy in Nigeria.
However, Blaq believes his approach to the genre introduced a new dimension. He described how he infused “the Wizkid and Davido vibe” into his music comedy, distinguishing his work from that of his predecessors.
According to Blaq, while earlier music comedians focused primarily on specific styles and regional languages like Igbo or Yoruba, his work was characterized by a diverse mix of genres. He employed mashups, covers, and storytelling, maintaining a high level of consistency and creativity.
Blaq emphasized that while he did not invent music comedy, his innovative approach has significantly contributed to its evolution and popularity in Nigeria.
Nigerian comedian and media personality, Nedu Wazobia, speaks on his exit from Wazobia FM.
It can be noted that the comedian has worked with the organization for over a decade — 13 years.
While speaking, he expressed his disappointment with not having a send-forth after his contribution to the media house. “I worked in Wazobia for 13 years plus and when I resigned, they didn’t even do me a send-forth…”
Nigerian singer Omah Lay reveals that he rejected an offer from Davido to work together again on a track.
The singer shared his reason as he revealed this, stating he wants to pursue his career solo before any big collaboration.
“After we dropped the hit song ‘With You’, Davido called me for a new collaboration but I declined because I have my career to pursue too.”
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
