NAIJ.com earlier reported how Mr Eazi claimed to have influenced single-handedly influenced the Nigerian music industry. His seemingly outrageous claims led to many Nigerians attacking him on social media demanding for him to be humble.
Rather than step on the breaks, the Ohema crooner haas come out to reveal the major role he played in paving the way for Nigerian artists to perform in London. He mentioned this in a recent interview with MTV Base.
In the interview which was talked about on MTV Base's social media page, Mr Eazi expressed that he was first to start performing in London and that opened the door for many Nigerian musicians to copy him.
Mr Eazi opened up about the planned show he had prepared for his audience and when asked about Afrobeats, he said: “I felt like ever since I came and did quite a lot in London, a lot of African artists have started coming to London. It’s like London is the Afrobeat 101.
So I just feel like anyone can come and do a concert and it’s shown I’m happy that a lot of artists have been able to come and do concerts but I personally feel like Afrobeats is what is is right now, it’s a wave”
His Nigeria fans will definitely eat this one up and it seems Mr Eazi doesn't shy away from stating his importance in the music industry.
