This is the eighth month of the year but looking at the Nigerian entertainment industry from the stance of a critic, 2016 will end on a high and here’s why – the figures have been astronomical and the international recognition major. Simple.
The growth is visible, almost palpable. It’s a testament to the talent and growth laden in the field. We are gradually getting there, the PR and media cultures are advancing and the effects of these helping the musicians build a proper star power down there.
