Blaqbonez Claims to Have More Music Than Any Nigerian Artist
Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule, widely known as Blaqbonez, recently asserted that he has a larger discography than any other artist in Nigeria.
The rapper, famous for his track ‘Like Ice Spice,’ acknowledged that while he may not be the most commercially successful artist in the country, his extensive body of work speaks for itself.
During a recent music masterclass, Blaqbonez reflected on his prolific output, revealing that he used to release new music every week.
He emphasized his belief in the sheer volume of his discography, stating, “I’ve consistently put out more music than any other artist in Nigeria. I’m confident about this fact.”
Blaqbonez also touched on his earlier career, noting his achievements in rap competitions across Nigeria as far back as 2011. He added, “I may not be the most successful artist in terms of visibility, but the depth of my work is substantial.
Many may judge me by what they see now, but they don’t see the countless hours and competitions I dominated to build my career.”
Two Nigerian music stars, Rema and Asake, have earned a place in former U.S. President Barack Obama’s annual list of favorite songs for 2024.
On Saturday, Obama shared his handpicked selection of tracks from the year, and both artists’ songs were included.
Rema’s hit single Yayo and Asake’s collaboration with Travis Scott on Active made the prestigious list..
The list also saw the inclusion of another African artist, South Africa’s Tyla, who was featured for her song Jump, a track featuring Gunna and Skillibeng.
In addition to the African stars, Nigerian-American singers Shaboozey and Jordan Adetunji also appeared on Obama’s playlist.
Shaboozey’s A Bar Song and Adetunji’s Kehlani were celebrated for their unique sound, adding diversity to the mix.
As expected, the list also featured big names from the global music scene, with legendary artists like Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and Karol G all making an appearance.
These mainstream stars continue to dominate the music industry, but Obama’s inclusion of emerging artists such as Rema and Asake shows his appreciation for a variety of musical genres.
On sharing his list with his followers via X (formerly Twitter), Obama encouraged fans to explore the tracks, saying, “Here are my favorite songs from this year!
Check them out if you’re looking to shake up your playlist, and let me know if there’s a song or artist I should make sure to listen to.”
