]]> The Nigerian music industry had an eventful 2024, marked by monumental performances, historic wins, groundbreaking collaborations, intense celebrity drama and other moments that shaped the music industry.

From groundbreaking performances at the Grammy Awards to major album releases, the year brought attention to the global influence of Nigerian music and the unique artists that continue to drive its growth.

Here are the top 20 moments that shaped Nigerian music industry in 2024:

1. Burna Boy's historic performance at the Grammy Awards

In February, one of those moments that shaped Nigerian music industry was when Burna Boy made history at the 66th Grammy Awards. He became the first Nigerian artist to perform at the main ceremony. With four nominations, including a prestigious nod for Best Melodic Rap Performance, his performance captivated audiences globally. This electrifying moment reflected Burna Boy's status as a pioneering force in the global music scene. His historic performance not only elevated Nigerian music but also solidified his legacy as one of the country's foremost international musical icons.

2. Nigerian artists' not winning at the Grammy Awards

Despite the high expectations, Nigerian artists such as Davido, Burna Boy, Ayra Starr, Asake, and Olamide were unable to secure any wins at the 66th Grammy Awards. With several nominations across various categories, including Davido's Grammy debut with three nominations, the lack of wins served as a reminder of the highly competitive nature of the global music industry. Despite this setback, the strong presence of Nigerian artists at the Grammys showcased their increasing influence on the international stage.

3. Tems' breakthrough moment at Billboard Women In Music awards

Meanwhile, in March, Tems reached another milestone in her career by winning the prestigious Breakthrough award at the 2024 Billboard Women in Music Awards. The ceremony, held at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles, celebrated the achievements of remarkable women in the music industry. During her acceptance speech, Tems expressed heartfelt gratitude, dedicating the award to her mother. The event was further highlighted by her stunning performance of Not an Angel, proving her undeniable presence in global music. Additionally, Tems graced the cover of Billboard Women in Music Issue, solidifying her place as a rising star.

4. Tiwa Savage’s letter to Commissioner of Police over alleged threats from Davido

The Nigerian music industry was rocked by a public dispute between Tiwa Savage and Davido. Following Tiwa’s attendance at a party with Sophia Momodu, Davido’s first baby mama, Tiwa alleged receiving threats from Davido over a video featuring herself and Sophia. The situation escalated when Tiwa claimed that Davido had warned her through mutual connections to be cautious in Lagos. Tiwa's subsequent plea for police intervention and the attached screenshots sparked a heated debate, shedding light on the personal dynamics within the Nigerian music industry.

5. Wizkid declares he is not an Afrobeat artist

In a bold move that sent shockwaves through the music scene, Wizkid declared that he no longer wished to be labeled as an Afrobeat artist. Through a series of Instagram posts, he distanced himself from the genre, signaling a shift in his musical identity. Wizkid also announced the completion of his highly anticipated album Morayo, dedicated to his late mother. The album represents a departure from his previous Afrobeat sound, signaling a new era in Wizkid’s artistic journey.

6. Davido and Chioma’s grand wedding

Nigerian superstar Davido and his long-time partner, Chioma Rowland, tied the knot in a lavish traditional wedding ceremony in Lagos on June 25, 2024. The wedding, a perfect blend of cultural richness and modern elegance, was one of the most talked-about events of the year. The ceremony, attended by top stars, political dignitaries, and sports personalities, went viral on social media, with numerous heartfelt moments capturing the nation’s attention. The couple’s love story, highlighted by their heartfelt vows and family blessings, became a symbol of commitment and joy in the Nigerian entertainment industry.

7. Wizkid and Davido’s beef

Additionally, the ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Davido reached new heights in 2024. After an initial attempt at reconciliation, the two superstars found themselves at odds once again after Wizkid posted an alleged video involving Davido. The feud quickly escalated on social media, with both artists exchanging heated words through posts and comments. This public spat added to the already tense relationship between the two, keeping fans and the music industry on edge. Despite their differences, both Wizkid and Davido continued to dominate the global music scene.

8. Burna Boy’s historic London Stadium concert

Burna Boy made another unforgettable mark in music history with his record-breaking London Stadium concert in June 2024. Selling out the 80,000-capacity stadium twice, Burna Boy became one of the few artists to achieve this feat. The concert, which featured surprise collaborations and a mix of his classic hits and new releases, was proof of Burna Boy’s ever-expanding global appeal. With performances from other top Nigerian artists such as Shallipopi, Omah Lay, and Seyi Vibez, the event further solidified Burna Boy’s status as one of Africa’s most powerful musical ambassadors.

9. Tems and Ayra Starr release highly anticipated albums

This year, as part of the moments that shaped Nigerian music industry, two of Nigeria’s most prominent female artists released albums that garnered widespread attention. Tems, with her highly anticipated debut album Born in The Wild, explored themes of self-discovery and growth. The album's 18 tracks, featuring collaborations with J Cole and Asake, resonated deeply with listeners, topping charts and amassing millions of streams. Likewise, Ayra Starr’s sophomore album, The Year I Turned 21 (TYIT21), showcased her growth as an artist. With collaborations from international stars such as Anitta and Giveon, the album received critical acclaim and reached impressive chart positions, further solidifying both Tems and Ayra Starr’s dominance in the music industry.

10. Ruger and BNXN squash their beef and release a joint EP

However, Ruger and BNXN (formerly Buju) turned their once contentious rivalry into a successful collaboration in 2024. Their joint EP, RnB, was released after the two artists buried the hatchet, marking a moment of reconciliation in the Nigerian music scene. The seven-track project, which features no guest appearances, allows the duo to showcase their individual styles while demonstrating their strong artistic chemistry.

12. Rema’s homecoming concert in Benin city

Basically, on August 30, 2024, Afrobeats sensation Rema returned to his hometown of Benin City, performing at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium. This concert was not only significant for Rema but also for the city, as it marked his first show on Nigerian soil. The concert became an unforgettable event, drawing thousands of fans who experienced powerful performances of his hits like Dumebi, Calm Down, and Charm.

13. Rema’s experimental HEIS album

Rema took the world by surprise with the release of his experimental album HEIS, which marked a significant departure from his usual Afrofusion style. In an interview with Complex Music, Rema shared his desire to push boundaries and explore new sonic textures, despite his label’s initial hesitation. The album blends rock, R&B, and traditional African sounds, drawing comparisons to Kanye West's Yeezus album. This bold creative direction has been praised as a forward-thinking project that pushes Afrobeats into exciting new territories, showing Rema’s versatility as an artist.

14. Flavour sells out Wembley Arena

Nigerian highlife legend Flavour made history in 2024 by selling out the prestigious Wembley Arena in London.

Moreso, after years of tension, public feuds, and occasional reunions, P-Square officially dissolved in 2024. Paul Okoye confirmed the split in an emotional Instagram Live session, explaining his frustrations with the group dynamics and announcing his decision to focus on a solo career. This announcement marked the end of an era for P-Square, once one of Africa’s most beloved and influential music duos. While the split was sad for many fans, it also opened the door for both Paul and Peter Okoye to pursue their individual artistic endeavors.

16. Wizkid releases sixth studio album Morayo

Wizkid, one of Nigeria’s biggest international stars, released his highly anticipated sixth studio album, Morayo, in 2024. Named in tribute to his late mother, Morayo explores themes of love, life, and celebration, while also reflecting a sense of introspection. The 16-track album features collaborations with global artists like Asake, Brent Faiyaz, Tiakola, and Jazmine Sullivan. Opening with Troubled Mind, the album showcases Wizkid’s ability to blend Afrobeats with global sounds, reinforcing his position as a trailblazer in the genre.

Grammy Nominations 2025

The addition of the Best African Music Performance category at the Grammy Awards has been a game-changer for African artists and is one of those moments that shaped Nigerian music. For the 2025 Grammy Awards, Nigerian artists dominated the nominees list, with stars like Tems, Asake, Yemi Alade, Davido, Wizkid, and Lojay securing nominations. In a surprising turn, last year’s winner, South Africa’s Tyla, was absent. Rema’s nomination for Best Global Music Album is another indication of Afrobeat’s expanding reach.

18. Wizkid's record-breaking Spotify streams

Consequently, Wizkid’s album Morayo shattered streaming records on Spotify Nigeria, amassing 12 million streams on its release day and 16.27 million streams globally within 24 hours. The hit single Kese (Dance) also set a new benchmark for single-day streams, showcasing Wizkid’s enduring appeal and influence. Also, He set a new record for the biggest first-day streams on Spotify Nigeria with his hit song Piece of My Heart. The song quickly became a viral sensation, garnering impressive streaming numbers and establishing Wizkid’s dominance in the digital music space.

19. Virgin Music and Empire's market dominance

As 2024 unfolded, one of those moments that shaped the industry was when Virgin Music and Empire emerged as dominant players in Nigeria’s music industry. According to TurnTable Charts, both labels surpassed one billion on-demand streams across major platforms, solidifying their positions in the Nigerian music ecosystem. Virgin Music, partnered with Dapper Music, led with an 8.62% market share, while Empire followed closely with 8.25%. Labels like YBNL Nation, Mavin Records, and Vibez Inc also contributed to the competitive landscape. These impressive streaming numbers reflect the growing commercialization of Nigerian music and its impact on global platforms.

20. Sinach's legal battle over Way Maker

Last on the list of moments that shaped Nigerian music industry, in a dramatic legal twist, gospel singer Sinach found herself in the midst of a high-profile copyright lawsuit. The producer of her hit song Way Maker, Michael Oluwole (Mayolee), is suing Sinach for ₦5 billion, claiming he was not adequately compensated for his instrumental contributions to the song’s success. The lawsuit, filed in November 2024, has sparked debates about intellectual property rights, fair compensation, and the importance of formal agreements in music production. As the case continues, it could set an important legal precedent in Nigeria’s burgeoning music industry.

]]> Nigerian gospel singer Sinach has spoken out against the N5 billion copyright infringement lawsuit filed by music producer Maye.

Maye, whose real name is Michael Oluwole, is claiming co-ownership of Sinach's hit song Way Maker and demanding N5 billion in damages.

According to Sinach, Maye's role in the song was limited to mixing, for which he was paid N150,000 ($300) years ago. Sinach emphasized that Maye's contribution does not entitle him to co-ownership of the song.

The copyright drama has sparked a heated debate on social media, with many fans supporting Sinach. Meanwhile, Way Maker, released in 2016, has become a global phenomenon, translated into several languages and impacting countless lives.

The Federal High Court in Lagos has adjourned the case until January 29 and 30, 2025. As the lawsuit unfolds, fans of Sinach remain steadfast in their support for the gospel music star.

]]> The award-winning singer is facing a lawsuit from the producer of the monster hit Way Maker, who is claiming copyright and publishing rights.

According to several reports, the Federal High Court in Lagos heard a ₦5 billion copyright lawsuit today, November 27, 2024, involving gospel music superstar Osinachi Joseph Egbu, popularly known as Sinach, and music producer Michael Oluwole, also known as Mayolee

The legal battle revolves around the ownership and profits of Sinach’s hit song Way Maker, which has gained global recognition since its release in December 2015. The producer, Mayolee, claims he played a critical role in the song’s success by recording, mixing, and mastering it, as well as creating key instrumental elements like the piano, strings, and synthesizers.

However, despite his contributions, he alleges that Sinach has kept all the proceeds from the song without properly compensating him. He is suing her and seeking ₦5 billion in damages, a share of the song’s earnings, and legal recognition of his rights as a contributor. Mayolee also wants a court order to prevent the unauthorised use of the track.

Recall that, sometime in 2022, the producer had threatened to sue the singer during a live video session with social commentator Daddy Freeze—a threat that has now been carried out.

Sinach, on the other hand, insists she is the sole creator of Way Maker. Her lawyer, Emeka Etiaba (SAN), argues that Sinach wrote, arranged, and performed the song before Mayolee’s involvement. According to her team, Mayolee was only hired to mix and master the final recording and was paid $300 for his work. They claim he has no legal claim to royalties or copyrights, as his role was purely technical.

However, Mayolee’s lawyer, Justin Ige, points out that no formal contract was ever signed between the two parties. This lack of documentation, he argues, leaves the door open for Mayolee’s claims under Nigerian copyright law, which can favour contributors in cases without clear agreements.

This lawsuit has sparked conversations about fair compensation, intellectual property rights, and the importance of formal agreements in creative collaborations. As the case progresses, it could set a significant precedent for resolving disputes in Nigeria’s rapidly growing music industry.

]]>  In this list, we highlight and celebrate the impact of women on the music scene by taking a look at some moments when Nigerian female musicians broke a record; 

Female Nigerian musicians who broke records

Like stars out on a stormy night, Nigerian female musicians that have made it to mainstream relevance, are few and far between; an even sparser representation of the limited female talents in the Nigerian male-dominated scene. Yet these stars prevail; shining in unique ways that have cast light unto the music scene in general and also helped illuminate a path for other female musicians to follow. In 1977, the United Nations adopted the International Women’s Day celebration popularising it past its niche recognition and ever since, every 8th of March has come to be recognised as a day set out for highlighting challenges faced by women the world over and also to celebrate their growth and achievements in the face of all odds. As a result, in this list, we highlight the impact of female Nigerian musicians on the music scene by taking a look at some achievements from notable female talents; 

Times Nigerian Female Musicians Broke A Record

Asa bags a win at the first-ever Headies; 2006

Female Nigerian musicians who broke records

In 2006, the Headies awards had debuted as the Hip-Hop awards and had awarded Asa the winner of their first-ever Next Rated award. At that moment, Asa had simply debuted with two singles, Eye Adaba and Jailer, two songs that were different as night today in comparison with the heavily pop records put out by musicians in the scene. After that, Asha’s record deal with Question Marks had hit the rocks but this proved to be a blessing in disguise for Asa who soon copped a deal with French-based Naive records under which she released her evergreen self-titled debut album, Asha.

Sasha P

Way before this golden age of Afrobeats that signals a global takeover, the genre had been getting love from international bodies and awards. In 2008, firebrand rapper, Sasha P had alongside 2Baba, then Tuface and Kelly Hansome, represented the country on stage at the World Music Awards. For the award show which was founded as far back as 1989, Sasha’s appearance was the first time ever for a female Nigerian musician. 

Yemi Alade’s Johnny Video breaks record on YouTube; 2017

Female African musicians

In 2013 Yemi Alade had put out the single, Johnny which had progressed into a hit that had launched her into the mainstream scene. The next year, on the 3rd of March, she’d put out visuals to support the song. Soon after the video started to garner a lot of traction, with the French version of the single joining forces to bolster demand for the video. Eventually, in November 2017, Yemi Alade’s Johnny video had broken a YouTube record by being the Nigerian music video with the most views at 78.8 million streams, dethroning the video of P-Square’s Personally in the process. 

That is however not Yemi Alade’s only pioneering win as she also made records by being the first-ever winner of the Headies award for Best Performer in 2018, scoring a brace even by winning it the year after.

Female Nigerian musicians who broke records

Tiwa Savage sits pretty on a noteworthy pile of firsts but in 2018, she had amped this up to a continental level by being the first woman to win the award of Best African Act at the MTV Europe Music Awards of 2018. Before emerging winner and bagging a win for female musicians in Africa as well as Nigeria at large, Tiwa Savage had been nominated alongside Davido, Distruction Boyz from South Africa, Davido, and Nyashinnski from Kenya. 

Sinach breaks Billboard charts record; 2020

Female Nigerian musicians who broke records

Secular Nigerian music may get the bulk of the hype but in 2020, gospel singer Sinach had stolen the show, making a statement for gospel singers in Nigeria and Africa when her name topped Billboard’s Christian songwriter charts for 7 weeks consecutively. This made Sinach the first African Christian musician to score this milestone but was far from the singer's first continental record following her tour of India where she headlined concerts.

Tems achievements
Tems

Tems has in a short while manifested her ‘leading vibe’ tag by bagging awards and breaking records thanks to the success of Wizkid's Essence where she supplied the highlighting chorus. 

The singer however has also proved to be a key figure in the new age of Nigerian music. In September 2021 following the release of Drake's Fountains and her sophomore EP, If Orange Was A Place, she hit 11 million monthly listeners on Spotify to become the most-streamed African artiste. 

Ayra Starr being the most successful female teenage act; 2021

Ayra Starr achievements

At the very moment, Ayra Starr has been nominated for the Next Rated category of the Headies Awards, to slug it out against Buju, Ruger and Zinoleesky. A position she earned following her release of two successful and well-received projects which both came in at top ten on Notjustok's albums of the year for 2021.

Off the back of her debut album, 19 & Dangerous, Ayra Starr secured a hit single in Bloody Samaritan and a huge milestone by becoming the first solo entry by a female artist to peak at number one on the Turntable Charts. 

Altogether, these wins and more have culminated in Ayra being one of the most successful teenage acts in the history of Nigerian music. 

Happy International Women's day to all women out there making a change in the music industry. This list in no way captures the full strides and strife of Nigerian female musicians, so we'll love to hear from you on other stories of how Nigerian female musicians have broken a record or two or more or impacted the industry in their own way.

Sinach disclosed that she got the letter from a Texas Congress member named Sheila Jackson Lee. The letter recognized the singer for her contributions in utilizing her music to preach the gospel in the state of Texas. Jackson Lee writes;

Music is one of the most important and powerful things in life. It brings people together and allows us to experience the same emotions. People everywhere are the same in heart and spirit. No matter what language we speak, what color we are, the form of our politics, or the expression of our love and our faith, music proves; we are all human beings. Thank you for spreading this universal language throughout the world.

They have the freedom, through song, to discover their destiny and maximize their hidden potential through communion with the one true God. Indeed, your tireless efforts are completely deserving of the respect, administration, and commendation of the United States Congress
