Whenever a Nigerian artist is trending, it's more often than not about the lazy 'Like or Retweet' brand to comparison that Twitter influencers use to drive conversation.

COVID-19 lockdown is doing a number on Nigerians and it's not difficult to see how. All one just has to do is get on Twitter and check the Nigerian trends every day. Whenever a Nigerian artist is trending, it's more often than not about the lazy 'Like or Retweet' brand to comparison that Twitter influencers use to drive conversation.

In the late hours of April 7, 2020, a Nigerian Twitter user got his account and posted a picture of Nigerian singers, Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy and Runtown with a corny caption. Since then, it has been ruckus on a Twitter NG that's usually drunk on stan culture and herd favouritism for one artist or another by short-fuse teenagers and would-be music analysts.

Runtown

Runtown is one of my favorite Naija artists and I always anticipate his songs.

Retweet, if you think ”Mad over you” was a hit 🔥

Neutral geng

I don't understand why music lovers compare artists. Everyone sounds different, from Davido, Burna Boy, Runtown, Wizkid, Rema etc. Stop comparing artists, just enjoy the music!
