Konga expresses disappointment on artist failure to support industry legend

Veteran singer Konga, expresses his disappointment in the new age Nigerian artist for their failure to support legends in the industry.

His expression was aired in a recent episode of the Hits Don’t Lie podcast,he stated that Davido should have used his 200 million donation to support struggling music legends instead of donating the money to orphanages.

According to him, this could have rejuvenated the careers of legends like Baba Fryo and Daddy Showkey.

He maintained that Nigerian artists should humble themselves and support their predecessors.

He expressed disappointment with the lack of recognition and support for these legends, saying they have been forced to take menial jobs abroad.

, “The present crops of Nigerian artists need to humble themselves. Nobody is dragging their money with them. But they have used peer pressure to chase a lot of Nigerian music legends into doing menial jobs abroad.

“If I were part of Davido’s management, one time his friends contributed money to him, I would have said, ‘Davido, carry this money, go and give it to all these legends… bring Baba Fryo back, bring Daddy Showkey. Give Daddy Showkey, Baba Fryo and others ₦5 million each.’

“If he had done that, the industry would have taken up. Our legends would have dropped a lot of comeback hits. Our music legends are running away due to lack of support. Look at Lord of Ajasa, is that a joke to you? And someone like Olamide will come out to say Wizkid is the greatest Nigerian artist internationally. Where is that coming from? We have been doing international shows for ages” He said
