Duncan Mighty, the ?Port Harcourt First Son? crooner is one artiste that has carved a niche for himself in the Nigerian entertainment industry; and most music pundits thought he is ripe for the international audience. But would such notion be said to be true after assessing his single with Jamaican A-list musician, Shaggy, many considered as a ?flop?, ANTHONY ADA ABRAHAM writes.
He is not the first Nigerian artiste to go beyond the shores of Africa to widen his horizon and seek more fan base by collaborating with renowned superstars, especially now the world is a global village and music a unifying factor. The likes of D?banj and P-Square have toed the path before and had come out with great hits, making a statement that they are truly a star by their own right.
D?banj and his erstwhile partner Don Jazzy took the Nigerian and indeed African music fans by storm when he did a remix of his ?Mr. Endowed? with American superstar rap artiste, Snoop Dogg. Then came ?Oliver Twist? in which he featured one of the biggest name in the world of music Kanye West which received massive accolades and appreciation from fans across the globe.
P-Square took the Nigerian music industry by storm with a remix of ?Chop My Money?; a hit done with Senegalese-born US-based artiste Akon that received huge airplay across the country. And right after that was another remix with another A-list superstar, Rick Ross, in a song entitled ?Beautiful onyinye? that is still receiving regular airplay across the country.
That collaboration has been considered as one of the biggest effort coming from the Nigeria music scene, courtesy of the Konvict
