Republic of Ireland based reggae musician, Weird has sensationally declared that pure and organic reggae is as good as dead in Nigeria. In a telephone interview with Natinal Daily, the cinematography turned singer opined that “I find it very funny when people see a singer with dread logs, or hear him speaking partua(Jamaican Pidgin English) or even smoking Indian hemp you are qualified to be called a reggae artiest. And it is not so, with all due respect to acts that I respect a lot like Burna Boy, Patoranking, and Cynthia Morgan who are doing great dance hall music, but we still lack organic reggae in Nigeria. Listen to Bob Marley, Majek Fashek, Lucky Dube or even Raskimono you will see that no current musician is playing that kind of pure reggae and that is the dish I am bring to the table of Nigerian music”
Presently, Weirdz has dropped his debut single “celebrate” produced by VC Perez. On the challenges he has faced since storming the Nigerian music industry Osaze Moses Wilserhun said “I think the first part is music producers duplicating the same beat for artiest and that is why I worked with VC Perez because of the time he spends in studying to meet each acts demand. Secondly is the issue of fraudster who claim they can help you but in truth they mean to dupe you of your money” he concluded
