Music
transcends all boundaries. It fuels creativity and communicates
messages that are given different interpretations by the listener. Some
songs can make you fall in love, make you sad while others make you come
alive. This is the magic embedded in music!
Interestingly,
in Nigeria, many of her artists are churning out songs on a daily
basis. This music enjoys massive airplay on radio and television and
this is actually a plus for the Nigerian entertainment industry.
For
visitors who are planning their itinerary for a trip to Nigeria or who
are already in the country witnessing the beauty of the Olumirin
waterfall, appreciating the breath-taking view of the Olumo rock and sleeping in a hotel booked
on Jovago.com, there is an array of Nigerian songs they can listen to.
However, if they want to fall in with Nigeria, these selected songs by Africa’s No 1 hotel booking portal will make that possible. Note, the aforementioned destinations can only do as much to encourage visitors to come back.
“The Land is Green” by T.Y. Bello
Toyin
Sokefun Bello, better known as T.Y. Bello is a multi-talented gospel
singer, photographer and philanthropist. She was a former member of the
now-defunct gospel band ‘Kush. In 2008, she released The Land is green which is a single that preached the message of love and hope for Nigeria. The Land is green indeed!
“The Nigerians” by Ebisan
Bukola Damola popularly called ‘Ebisan’ is a British Nigerian songstress who started singing at the age of 8. “The Nigerians” was a tribute to her diversified roots which can be traced to Yoruba and Itsekiri. The
song encourages Nigerians to be proud of their country and heritage.
This patriotism-invoking-song surreptitiously serves as a public
relations tool for Nigeria due to her questionable international
reputation.
‘Great Nation’ by Timi Dakolo
Timi
Dakolo is one of the few Nigerian artists that can hold their own
during a live performance. The Nigerian singer born in Ghana came
limelight after winning the debut season of Idols West Africa. The
lyrics of the song tell listeners how they can contribute to the
development of the country through peace, unity and Justice so that
Nigeria can become a “Great Nation.” The depth of the lyrics and the soulful vocals will make visitors love the song and love Nigeria.
