    CONTRIBUTIONS OF YORUBA MUSICIANS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF NIGERIAN POPULAR MUSIC Funso A. Fagbile and Blessing A. Amole Introduction Nigerian music as it is today has produced many kinds of art, religious, folk and popular music, some of which are known to be spread around the world. Ogisi (2005) classified Nigerian music into traditional, art, religious and popular music. He stressed further that traditional music is ethnic based and integral to culture, art music is contemplative music for aesthetic enjoyment, religious music is performed for religious activities in and outside the religious centers such as church, while popular music is essentially entertainment music. Nigerian popular music is further subdivided into two types: those in which Islamic musical element fused with African traditional music and those in which African idioms fused with elements of western music such as juju and highlife (Euba, 1989:14). Nigerian popular music is one of the least researched areas of the various types of Nigerian music and as such different areas such as contributions of Yoruba musicians in the area of popular music are yet to be addressed. Therefore, this paper tries to look into the area of Juju and Fuji music, their exponents, life history and contributions. Popular music in many African countries have seen turbulence and violence during the transition from a diverse region of folk cultures to a modern nation-state. Nigeria has more difficulty than most African countries in forging a popular cultural identity from the diverse people of the countryside. From its beginnings in the streets of Lagos, popular music in Nigeria had long been an integral part of the field of African pop, bringing in influences and instruments from many ethnic groups, most prominently including the Yoruba.

  • Contemporary Nigerian Popular Music: a Menace to National Development
    Journal of Arts & Humanities Contemporary Nigerian Popular Music: A Menace to National Development Ogunrinade D.O.A1 ABSTRACT There is no gainsaying that most of the recent forms of contemporary popular music produced, packaged, made available for public consumption constitute grave danger and serious threat to moral uprightness in Nigerian society. This has exposed the Nigerian society to a wide variety of insecurity and violence. This is evident as seen from series of moral decadence and dissipation that infiltrated the lives of the citizenry - especially the youths (the leaders of tomorrow) ranging from, sexual abuse, money mongering, indiscipline, examination malpractice and indecent dressing to mention but a few. Music is a powerful tool and a force for mobilization which brings about either reformation or deformation of character due to the type of rhythm, melody, harmony and principally the lyrics of the songs. This paper examines the new trend of contemporary popular music in Nigeria with a view to assess its negative and pessimistic impacts on the character of the citizenry in Nigerian society. Live performances of contemporary popular music were observed and audio and video tape materials relating to the said music were also analyzed based on their educational and moral values of such songs. It was discovered that many of contemporary popular music as we have it today in Nigeria communicates vulgarity and coarseness to the listeners and this poses a lot of negative effects on the attitude of the youths. Musicians employ indecent words to attract the youth thus creating negative influence on the character of the leaders of tomorrow (the youth) to engage in various debaucheries.

  • Foregrounding Female Agency in the Dance Culture of Nigeria
    WHAT I DO WHEN I DANCE: FOREGROUNDING FEMALE AGENCY IN THE DANCE CULTURE OF NIGERIA Oladoyin Abiona A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2021 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Jeremy Wallach Rahdika Gajjala © 2021 Oladoyin Abiona All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor Scholarship on female representations in hip hop has been predominantly premised on the sexualization of the female body. By focusing mainly on this singular aspect of the genre, we reduce the whole essence of womanhood in the industry to such interpretations. The limited scope of such discussions deprives the women of opportunities to tell their own stories of what they do when they dance. Seeing the cultural significance of dance as a form of popular culture in the Nigerian context, this essay, from a feminist perspective, closes this gap by engaging in a qualitative exploration of the lives of three female dancers in Nigeria telling their stories through dance. They are Kaffayat Oluwatoyin Shafau (Kaffy), Odumewu Debbie (Debbiepinkie), and Usiwo Orezinena Jane (Janemena). Exploring their social media archives, interviews granted to TV stations and a published autobiography “Alajoota” by Kaffy, this essay contextualizes and complicates the interpretations of sexualization in the Nigerian hip hop dance industry. Through dance Nigerian women performers are able to negotiate the heavily male-dominated hip hop scene. For them, dance is a coping strategy, a profession, a space for redefining self and embracing sexuality and femininity, and a form of youthful identity and inclusion.

    “In the Ghetto, Life No Easy For We”: The Construction and Negotiation of Identity in Ajegunle Raga by Ogunbowale Mopelolade Oreoluwa A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History and International Development Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Ogunbowale Mopelolade Oreoluwa, June, 2012 ABSTRACT “In the Ghetto, “Life No Easy For We”: The Construction and Negotiation of Identity in Ajegunle Raga Ogunbowale Mopelolade Advisor: University of Guelph, 2012 Professor F.J Kolapo This thesis is an investigation into the historical evolution of Ajegunle Raga, a reggae form developed within an urban ghetto in Lagos called Ajegunle and the construction and negotiation of identities therein. The research further argues that Ajegunle Raga is a home- grown oppositional music subculture that draws inspiration from diasporic musical subcultures like Reggae and Hip Hop but retains a genuine representation of Ajegunle in its tales of survival, poverty, marginalization and expressions of creativity within the ambience of the music. Figure 1: Map of Lagos showing Ajegunle and its environs.

First of all, I thank God for the inspiration, strength and determination to complete this project. I sincerely want to appreciate my dad, Lanre Ogunbowale, my mum, Theresa Tokubo Koya and my sisters, Tobi and Busola Ogunbowale for always motivating and encouraging me. I cherish your love, support and friendship and whatever I do is to make you all happy.

Find more at: http://digital.lib.msu.edu/projects/africanjournals/ Available through a partnership with Scroll down to read the article. BISADE OLOGUNDE: I AM STILL TRYING TO HOLD ON TO WHAT MOVES PEOPLE ABOUT MUSIC EDITOR 'S NOTE: Lagbaja is not only the theme for the music album of Bisade Ologunde 's team. It is a theme but more than a theme. It is a concept. A concept of a masked musician. An anonymous man, an unknown instrumentalist striking the keyboard notes or blasting away on the bass guitar. Bisade would not confirm this, but Lagbaja, that is the concept of an unknown man rings a strident bell with both a musical and political resonance. Can we expect not to recall that Fela Anikulapo-Kuti in the 70s released an album titled Unknown Soldier ? Which itself echoed the summed up verdict of a judicial commission that investigated a raid of uniformed soldiers on his erstwhile residential compound in Lagos - the Kalakuta Republic. As Bisade confesses to us, influences fly from mind to mind purely at the stream of the subconscious: Nobody can hold on to it! UESTION: Can you give us a Q brief introduction to your person? ANSWER: Well, I call Bisade a musician. I'm also a producer. We have a band, we've been together now for about five or six years; sorry, this is the fifth year; in another one month, it will be five years we've been together.

  • African Musician As Journalist: a Study of Ayinde Barrister's Works
    New Media and Mass Communication www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3267 (Paper) ISSN 2224-3275 (Online) Vol.48, 2016 African Musician as Journalist: A Study of Ayinde Barrister’s Works Kola Adesina, Ph.D Adeyemi Obalanlege, Ph.D Idris Katib Department of Mass Communication, Crescent University, Abeokuta Abstract This study was conducted to test the validity of contention that Sikiru Ayinde Barrister (SAB) music is journalism, particularly when its contents are juxtaposed with different sections of a newspaper or magazine.Being a qualitative essay, copious quotations from SAB's works were done to test each unit of the analysis such as education, politics, news commentary, travel/tourism, editorial, poetry etc. A total of 13 albums representing 10% of SAB's works were selected and graded on their contents based on their suitability to each of the categories above.Findings however revealed that music of SAB is journalism. Apart from informing, educating and entertaining his audience, SAB also employed his music for agenda-setting and social responsibility purposes in media theoretical framework. The criticism aspect of his music had played the watch- dog and advocacy roles of the media on the populace and the government especially during the military juntas of Gen. Muhamadu Bihari, Ibrahim Babangida and Sani Abacha respectively.The study found that selected works of traditional musicians such as Ayinde Barrister and Ayinla Omowura qualify journalism in structure and content. Introduction Journalists are sometimes regarded as mobile encyclopaedia because they access, process and sift deluge of information at their disposal and at the same time, feed the society back.
