“2baba is the king of the Nigerian Music Industry”- Cobhams Asuquo says

Singer and music producer, Cobhams Asuquo has  described Innocent Idibia aka 2Baba and King Sunny Ade and a few others as national treasures.

He said:

“When it comes to having an enduring career that has spanned decades, my respect goes to 2Baba, King Sunny Ade, and some others who have been around for so long. You can tell that they are not going anywhere anytime soon. They have become national treasures and a part of the history of the country.”

“2Baba has made music with some of the greats of the nineties and he continues to make music with some of the greats of today. One can’t beat that unless one knows how to evolve. I think people like that are undoubtedly the kings and custodians of the Nigerian music space. Trends come and go but the real kings in the music industry do not make noise, yet they never run out of shows.”

“I like to think of myself as an observer because I have been in the music industry for a long time. Observing and evolving, are the ways to make oneself a custodian of the history of the music industry. For me, the most important thing is to continue to be relevant. The industry is such that everyone has their day. There are some people who may not shine as brightly as other people but their candles never dim and it is a beautiful place to be.”
