List compiled by Reading-Bridges magazine.Totally agree with it...guess that's why I'm sharing it :-).
Once upon a time, the oyibo man ran Nigerian music when big international music labels as Sony, EMI, Motown etc set up here and called the shots. Unable to contain the yawa they met, they packed their baggage and left. Leaving us with no clue as to what to do.

Those who decided to invent a new Nigerian sound were criticized strongly by the older music act as being armatures who were heading nowhere. The press too, was not exactly kind to their course. But they stuck to their guns with sacrifices and today we have thousands making millions out of an industry they slaved for
These are the top 20 guys who began and grew the new age Nigerian music industry. The seed sowers and pioneers who created and promoted the new sound that feeds millions today and put our music on the Global map.
