  • Nigerian Values and Contemporary Popular Music: a New Look
    NIGERIAN VALUES AND CONTEMPORARY POPULAR MUSIC: A NEW LOOK Ebele Ojukwu, Elizabeth Obielozie & Chinyere Esimone http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/og.v12i s1.7 Abstract Music is among the ancient art forms in Africa that has flourished as old as man since ancient African society did not separate their everyday activities from their music. Most music performances in Africa go beyond the frontiers of mere entertainment activity but are geared more towards socio-cultural dimensions due to its ability to socialize, consolidate values and other utilitarian exigencies. In the recent times, the younger generations of Africa seem not to have much enthusiasm for their cultural values due to undue foreign influences. Nigerian contemporary pop music is playing an increasingly pivotal role in shaping the continent’s music scene. This paper seeks to portray contemporary pop music as a paradigmatic approach to enliven and perpetuate positive cultural as well as moral values in the Nigerian youths. The paper argues that contemporary Nigerian music can be employed to connect the African heritage to the world and African youths in diaspora will also have the opportunity to hear, touch, feel and create the musical art even in a distant homeland. It concludes by pointing out the need for Nigerian government to turn towards the entertainment industry and indeed the music industry with the objective of identifying possible avenues for growth in the industry, and for cultural sustainability in Nigeria. Keywords: Nigerian values, Music industry, Contemporary popular music, Youths and society Introduction Before the advent of colonialism in Nigeria, the Igbo traditional community, maintain highly and uncontaminated cultural and moral values.

  • 'Sexual Largess' Themes, Lyrics and Images in Nigerian Hip- Hop
    1 Sexuality and ‘Sexual Largess’ Themes, Lyrics and Images in Nigerian Hip- Hop Music Videos: A Content Analysis By Jemisenia John Oluwaseyi 08032070010 [email protected] & Ezenagu Nnedinma Roseline 08054805605 [email protected] Department of Sociology and Anthropology University of Nigeria Nsukka Abstract Sexual contents in the media have received great attention from scholars and researchers since the 1980s till present, regrettably very little has been done in this area of research in Nigeria, where increasing controversies have continued to trail the contents of videos that are shown on such terrestrial channels as Channel ‘O’, Hip-TV, Soundcity, Mtv base, and BET. Issues surrounding the rate of sexuality, sex, sexism, objectification, materialism, and the ‘good life’ (as it is shown on these music channels) have come under intense scrutiny by observers, commentators, scholars and the general public. Consequently, this study analyzed themes, lyrics and images bordering on sexuality and sexual largess in Nigerian Hip-Hop music videos on two popular stations on the terrestrial channels: Soundcity and Hip.Tv music channels between the periods of April to June, 2015. Through a multi-stage sampling technique, 132 videos were selected for analysis. Two independent coders were trained. The Cohen’s kappa (k) symmetric measure of agreement was employed in order to ensure the reliability of items. The Cohen’s kappa (k) for this study was 0.792. Altogether, result revealed that sexual themes, lyrics and images that are derogatory to womanhood are predominant in the analyzed music videos. The study recommends among others, enlightenment on the part of musicians/artistes on the need to promote messages of gender equality.

  • The Evolution of Feminism in Nigerian Media: a Look at Igbo Culture Films
    THE EVOLUTION OF FEMINISM IN NIGERIAN MEDIA: A LOOK AT IGBO CULTURE FILMS A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies University of Regina By Joy Adanna Emelogu Regina, Saskatchewan January 2019 Copyright 2019: J. A. Emelogu UNIVERSITY OF REGINA FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCH SUPERVISORY AND EXAMINING COMMITTEE Joy Adanna Emelogu, candidate for the degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies, has presented a thesis titled, The Evolution of Feminism in Nigerian Media: A Look at IGBO Culture Films, in an oral examination held on December 19, 2018. The following committee members have found the thesis acceptable in form and content, and that the candidate demonstrated satisfactory knowledge of the subject material. External Examiner: Dr. Claire Carter, Department of Women’s and Gender Studies Supervisor: Dr. Sheila Petty, Department of Film Committee Member: Dr. Christine Ramsay, Department of Film Committee Member: Dr. Darlene Juschka, Department of Women’s & Gender Studies Chair of Defense: Dr. Philip Charrier, Department of History Abstract This thesis addresses the subject of feminism in the Nigerian media, particularly on how issues related to women’s rights and gender discrimination have been addressed in Igbo culture Nigerian films. For several decades, the Nigerian home video industry, dominated by Igbo culture-themed films, has been one of the most influential media forms across Nigeria and Africa in general. These films are a staple in many homes; the images, narratives, and ideas that they disseminate go a long way in shaping or reinforcing public perceptions about the role of women and their status in society.

  • The Nigerian Music Industry: Making the Music Pay Through Intellectual Property by Solomon Nzere* ​[email protected]
    The Nigerian Music Industry: Making the Music Pay through Intellectual Property by Solomon Nzere* ​[email protected] Industry Insight, January 2018 Image Source: Tush Magazine Overview of the Nigerian Music Industry Perhaps t​he inspiring history of Nigeria’s music industry is best told through Star Mega Jam, a mega music-performance concert which paraded international artistes like Shaggy, Usher, Akon, T-Pain, Ludacris, and other stars from its inception in 2000 to 2010. In the midst of this boisterous mega music concert, a quiet revolution was brewing. Sparks of this revolution came to fore in December 2004 when Eedris Abdulkareem, a Nigerian 1 rapper, protested the obvious disparity in the treatment given to foreign artistes over the local artistes at the concert. The protest exposed the lopsidedness in Nigeria’s young music industry. But today, it’s a different story. Since the Star Mega Jam concert, all that has had to be chronicled is the continued rise and rise of the Nigerian music industry which hit an undeniable high point in Wizkid’s sold-out performance at the Royal Albert Hall1. Nigerian artistes now headline shows without big foreign names and command the bulk of endorsements from companies. This growth has been captured in numbers with PwC reporting that revenue from music sales in Nigeria is estimated to grow to $86 million in 2019 from its value of $47 million in 2016, a growth fuelled largely by sales of ringtones and ringback tunes. This revenue growth in the music industry forms a major part of the total
