Davido’s ‘Fall’ Is Finally Catching On in the U.S., But bigger it should be…


So it’s unusual that “Fall,” a springy, 19-month-old track from the Nigerian singer davido, is currently gaining traction on the airwaves. The growth has been gradual: 482 plays to date, spread across 36 stations, according to Nielsen BDS, which tracks radio activity. BDS reports that four new stations added “Fall” into rotation last week.

The Nigerian style of music known as Afrobeats has quietly entranced a large swathe of the world’s population. “Pretty much every song on pop radio [in the U.K. now] is sort of a Mr. Eazi-style, chill, afrobeats [track],” the producer Riton told Rolling Stone last year. But Nigerian singers have not yet established a foothold Stateside, despite well-received, afrobeats-dusted singles from established stars like Drake and Janet Jackson.
Those are admittedly not huge numbers — for comparison’s sake, Post Malone’s new single “Wow” grew by 1,700 plays last week alone. But listeners who hear “Fall” are scrambling to find their phones: It was one of the Top 100 most Shazam’d singles in America this week. In New York City, “Fall” was a Top 10 record on Shazam. And in Atlanta, another crucial market, only two tracks were getting more Shazam activity than DaVido’s.

Davido
Eliciting that level of interest in America is no small feat for an African singer. Columbia signed “Pana,” a 2016 single from Tekno, but wasn’t able to transform it into a U.S. hit. RCA signed Wizkid, the guest on Drake’s “One Dance,” but hasn’t been able to get a hit either. (RCA is also working with DaVido now.) Burna Boy, another Nigerian singer with impressive talent, is now affiliated with Atlantic, but his “Rock Your Body” didn’t reach a wide audience in America.
That has nothing to do with the music — “Pana” and “Rock Your Body” are both indelible polyrhythmic pop songs, wonderfully weightless next to the lead-footed trap that currently dominates both rap and pop radio in America. But the machinery that creates hits in the U.S. remains conservative, even in the supposedly “new” era brought on by streaming.

Nowhere is this more true than at radio, which throws its still-considerable weight behind only a tiny number of tracks — “A Top 40 radio station is playing five songs 120 times a week every week,” according to one radio insider — and rarely takes risks on music that doesn’t align with seemingly-ancient-if-not-totally-incomprehensible norms.
Mainstream “urban” radio usually won’t play Latin trap next to American trap, even if the same producers worked on both tracks, or pivot from hard hip-hop into soft R&B. Meanwhile, pop radio tries hard to ignore viral rap records, which programmers characterize as “pretty extreme,” in favor of bizarre but ostensibly more palatable concoctions by Panic! at the Disco or Marshmello. Even some Top 40 programmers are confused by this tendency: “I don’t know when everybody’s gonna get it through their heads that we can’t just keep forcing these pop songs that nobody likes down everybody’s throat,” Nathan Graham toldRolling Stone last year.
Radio also depends on a favor system of sorts: Artists play station concerts, stop by for interviews and record drops to help get their music onto the air. This is costly for artists without American passports. “To work the U.S. is big money — even getting music onto radio in New York alone might cost you upwards of $100 or $200 grand,” the Nigerian star Mr. Eazi explained to Rolling Stone last year. That’s another reason why, “at the end of the day, nobody has properly broken an African act in the U.S.”
It’s too early to tell if DaVido can establish a new path from Nigeria to the American airwaves — his team only recently started “attacking US radio properly,” according to an email from the singer’s manager, Asa Asika. But there’s no denying that when listeners hear DaVido’s music, they are immediately compelled to figure out who sings it. And that’s not just the case with “Fall.” This week New Yorkers were also trying to determine who steals the show on local rapper Casanova’s new single “2am” (Shazaming Top 25). Surprise — it’s DaVido. He is also the artist behind the 2017 track “If,” which is Shazaming Top 50 in New York.
DaVido’s success appears to be a boon for other Nigerian artists as well. Afro B’s “Drogba (Joanna)” was even higher than “Fall” on New York Shazam this week. If more radio programmers are willing to give these artists a chance, they may be pleasantly surprised by the results.

Casanova & Soulja Boy Quickly End Beef After Last Weekend’s Altercation



Earlier in the weekend, a video surfaced of a feud which took place between recently raving Soulja Boy and Casanova when the former confronted Soulja Boy over the way he addressed a certain woman in question

                                                                       Casanova
Cas said, “You screamed at a lady, you bugging the fuck out, homie,” Casanova could be heard saying to Soulja Boy. “You got shit all over your face. Are you bugging out? You high? You smacked? You don’t see how she ran out?”


                                                                     Soulja Boy

Soulja however quickly got cover for his action. He responded “If they females, they need to talk like females,” he said. “Why she talkin’ like she gangster?
                                                               

Well, the two rappers got on the phone during Soulja Boy’s session of Instagram Live to amend the broken sides, eventually laughing with one another, and quickly moving past the minor altercation.

“I’m good. I don’t want no problems with nobody,” Casanova said. He went on to warn YoungDrako against allowing his inner circle to egg him on in the process of making bad decisions. “N*ggas around me used to amp me up,” he said. “Don’t let nobody gas you… Rappers is dying out here, homie, off of little shit like this. I ain’t letting no blog trick me out of my shit.”

“I Don’t Regret Singing Logo Benz” – Lil Kesh Reaffirms


Punch Entertainment caught up with Lil Kesh for an interview recently, and the singer revealed he has no regrets on releasing his latest song “Logo Benz which generated a lot of controversial remarks regarding the morally degrading lyrics adopted in the song.
You would recall the song was about indirectly promoting the widespread mysterious theft of female panties which has been rumoured to be used for money rituals by desperate evil doers which many find so insensitive and ridiculous. People felt why would such a song be released at a time when the whole nation is scared of the situation and desperately looking for a way to end the calamitous act.
However Lil Kesh has cleared the air on the issue while also stating he does not regret releasing the song. He said,
Logo Benz was inspired by things we saw on social media and in our environment. One of the trending news now is how people are stealing pants for money rituals. One of those things they buy with the money is Benz cars. We thought we should do a song about it and create awareness; this is what we have been doing as musicians. But I guess people got the wrong impression. When it came out, it was heavily criticised and people felt we were promoting money rituals. I understood why it happened because some parts of the lyrics were not too clear. If we had looked for a better way to put the story out there, people would have understood it better.”
He added, “We have been able to create so much awareness on the issue and I am sure we have been able to save lives. Even if it was just one person we saved by releasing the song, I am happy. I don’t live with regrets. If I could go back in time, I would still release the song. But this time, we would do it in a way that it would not be misunderstood.”
