Monday, October 17, 2011Omoba
Naija Stand Up! History has been made once again; the time has come for
Nigerian Hip Hop to receive global recognition as we’ve been given a chance to
showcase our rap skills to the international community.
Last
year, the world experienced history with the first ever All African Cypher,
which was created by BET International to demonstrate how the hip-hop movement
and culture spanned way beyond the shores of the US and extended its impact to
the continent of Africa. The cypher, which featured some of the hottest rappers
in Ghana, was performed in four languages. Heavy weight artists such as 2011
BET Awards nominee, D-Black, founder of the Ghanaian Hiplife movement, Reggie
Rockstone, Kwaku T, Tinny, BabyG, Ayigbe Edem and Ghana’s fastest rapper,
Sarkodie, all caught worldwide attention with their amazing delivery when they
appeared on the 2010 International broadcast of the BET Hip-Hop Awards.

This
historical event created a sensational viral frenzy and an unprecedented buzz
in the entertainment industry. With such incredibly positive feedback from the
press and the public. The BET Hip Hop Awards 2011 was aired LIVE from Atlanta
to the international audience on the 11th of October. For the majority of
rapheads, the biggest catch of the show is the “CYPHER”. Virtually every
top rapper has graced it, and this year promises to be an exciting one. Why?
Because a Nigerian Rap contingent will also be on show.
Last
wednesday, Nigeria’s very best rappers spat killer bars and the video was shot
the following day.
