Rapper, Remilekun Safaru, popularly known as Reminisce, has said he believes only few people speak good English in Nigeria. In an interview with Punch newspaper, the Alaga Ibile as he is also widely known, stated his belief that indigenous language rappers have not been given the respect they deserve. According to him, a few of them in the game have strived hard to be heard and the best indication is that many people want to be razz these days like them because razz is seen as the new cool.



‘I don’t think anyone has given indigenous rappers any chance, we took it by ourselves. We just decided among ourselves that we need to make people know what we have to offer. Indigenous rappers own the crowd. Let’s be very honest with ourselves, how many people can speak good English in this country? It’s about the audience affiliating with the artistes who speak their language.

It’s not about calling indigenous rappers razz and local. More people want to be razz now; they think razz is the new cool. Luckily for me, I am selling razz music and I am getting rich off it.’.

Most of these decorated well known artistes are Yoruba d likes of Davido, Wizkid, Dbanj, Omowunmi, Olamide, Patoranking, 9ice. They were just lucky. Its true dat indigenous language should be recognized. Afterall, Oyinbo no dey speak Yoruba. Proudly Yoruba I rep

I don't know him neither do i know you, but you don't have the right to make a mockery of your fellow man of what his wearing, he can take that picture outside Nigerian, your not the only one who can travel to oversea where hood clothe can be used, or what makes you think that picture was taken in Nigerian?
