Good on these guys. Heard a bit of their music, not my stuff tho. They probably wont blow up in the US/westerncountries but i guess this gives GOOD Music greater access to the African market because these guys are huge over there.Dare:
I've been reading HHDX for the past 5 years and relying on them for all my Hip hop info. I feel so proud today to see this milestone achievement covered in my favoutite hiphop site. I would love to congratulate D'banj and Don Jazzy for being original artistes and not trying to be lil wayne and Kanye imitations like the bulk of the artistes in Nigeria. Americans appreciate it when u keep it real and not try to be like them. They have a plethora of gimmicky rappers already in the US and dont need Africans to try and immitate them. I feel so proud to be Nigerian today! This is a very good look for us!Lashele Ngwalayou Sebastien

africaunite:
ur on point wit dat one...mode9 is in my top ten most sickest emceez in this continent....better than anyone in that GOOD music rooster...i just wish he make a joint on a premo beat or just blaze....osasp:
mode 9 - not marketable - (kinda lyk tech 9yne)terry da rapman - sold out dead beat (has neva been good anyway)
blaise - she started out in her own lane but drifted off
naeto c - wannabe american rapper(u think they aint seen enough of those already?)
'those 2' are very spontaneous and you cant front on don jazzys skills. . .he still shits on any top producer in naija
all of the above are a personal opinion
davenchy:
Malik Yusef on GOOD music is a spoken word artist. .will u say he's not marketable?? Put a producer like Kanye or GOODmusic's Hitboy behind Modenine and u'll recognize wat a sick mc Modenine is. Me think DonJazzy was the main target Dbanj is just a freebie. .talk about gettin 2 fir the price of one! But GOOD move for the duononedaless! its Naijaaaa!!NAIJA4LIFE:
NAIJA IN DA GOOD MUZIKSeun:
It's 9999999jaa. Kanye West + Don Jazzy + D'banj = Good Music
