How I Paved Way For The Emergence Of Burna Boy, Davido, Wizkid, Others — Eedris Abdulkareem
According to Eedris, he led the movement that resulted in the global recognition that Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, and other Nigerian artists.
According to Eedris Abdulkareem, the former singer of Remedies, he started the revolution that made Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, and other Nigerian musicians famous around the world.
The reason Nigerian artists are now respected globally, in his opinion, stems from his 2004 revolt against show promoters' mistreatment of the country's artists, during which he clashed with American rapper 50Cent and his G-Unit members in Nigeria.
Abdulkareem expressed his opinions while In an interview with The Honest Bunch Podcast, Abdulkareem acknowledged that his rebellion had a negative impact on his career, but he also said that Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido were the products of a beautiful sacrifice.
He declared, “You heard someone like Burna Boy said nobody helped him in Nigeria. Would you have been a star without some people starting the revolution? That is a stupid talk. You wouldn't have been where you are if we didn't make this industry what it is; if we didn't fight for it. Unfortunately, most of them don't appreciate it. And I don't give a dime.
“It (fighting for Nigerian music industry) affected my career but it was a beautiful sacrifice that gave birth to Davido, Boy, Wizkid, and everybody today. For me, what's more important is that I have done what God asked me to do and our music is now allover the world. I have opened the road for them. It's their responsibility to appreciate the fight. And if them don't, I don't give a dime.”
