ABUJA ENTERTAINMENT; How to overcome the Lagos hodoo

In the heart of the federal capital territory, the value for imported songs and the admiration for lagosacentric sounds and melody can not be over emphasized. Everything music must be made in Lagos if not its not appreciated. Can we just take our time to listen to what is really coming out of Lagos and compare with the lofty amount of talents in deposit in Abuja? The real issue is even Abuja is not in Appreciation of itself. Many mushroom records labels in Abuja would beat their chest and gnash their teeth with envy of their counterparts in Lagos, but the level of sacrifice been made by the brains and the executives of this record labels can not be found anywhere around the capital territory.
Abuja is laden with talents of all kinds but suffers negligence and the stereotype remains that Lagos is more of the entertainment capital of the country, so Abuja can only try.
An Abuja grown artist wouldn't try to be unique in the music sence, the dominance of the likes of whizkid and Davido would influence every string he plays all the way in his music. It isn't wrong to have an established individual as a role model but you mustn't be a photocopy of that individual.
Abuja can only gain the respect it deserves in the industry only if the originality that was planted by Abuja pioneer artist from the likes of modenine, Terry da rapman, six foot plus and guys like rocklin can only be built on, Abuja can only keep playing the second fiddle to those guys from the southwest. Be original and you'll carve your own nitch and make the industry to sing in your own style.
