Shift aside- Brymo tells afrobeats’ ‘Big three’

Nigerian singer Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ, popularly known as Brymo has weighed in on the topic of the top three Nigerian afrobeats artists making waves in the international scene.

While speaking during an interview with TVC, Brymo urged established artists like Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy to step aside and make room for a new generation of musicians.

He claimed that labelling them as the ‘Big 3’ keeps them at the centre of the industry.

“We need to stop talking about how the new artists don’t have lyrical substance and focus on how some artists want to lock down the industry for themselves with the ‘Big 3’ narrative and continue reigning forever. They should shift aside. Right now, Rema should be the biggest pop star in the country without any doubt. All this talk about Wizkid, 2Face, Olamide, Burna Boy. Why? In the Pop scene?? Wetin dem dey sing? You can plug the radio but nobody likes your stuff anymore. Move aside, evolve.”
