Nigerian veteran reggae music maestro,
Majekodunmi Fasheke, popularly known as ‘Majek Fashek’ has advised young
Nigerian musicians on the quality and sound of their songs.
Majek said he makes good sound
but the likes of Davido, Wizkid, Olamide and others don’t make good sound, they
just jam.
In a recent interview with HIPTV,
Majek claimed there is a cut clear difference between the quality of sound and
music he makes and that of young artistes.
“I make sound while all these
young musicians make jam, I make good sound but they are always jamming, they
don’t make good sound, they just jam. My song ‘Send down the rain’ was made
over thirty years ago, but if you listen to it today, you will realize that the
sound will appeal to both the old and equally the young ones because the sound
is good and still relevant today, that is something the young musicians don’t
have.”
Majek also said his was a simple
advice and wasn’t meant to underrate or slight young artistes, but a fatherly
encouragement to improve on their craft by doing good sounds that will remain
evergreen.
“I didn’t mean to insult,
underrate, slight or demean any young Nigerian artiste; what I did was to state
the obvious. The truth is Wizkid, Olamide, Davido, and many other young
Nigerian artistes are doing good music but they just need to improve on their
sound for the better; I meant no form of insult”, he said.
