Controversial Twitter personality, Daniel Regha, has taken to task new-generation artists in his critique of Victony's latest single, 'Ohema.'
Expressing disappointment, Daniel labeled Victony's new single as the worst Afrobeat collaboration of 2023, featuring 14 artists, including Ayra Starr, Bella Shmurda, and Odumodublvck.
He went on to advise that the song is a must-skip for those who have yet to stream it, emphasizing that if older artists produced similar songs from new-generation artists, Afrobeat would have faltered from the start.
According to Daniel Regha, Afrobeat's message holds greater importance than just catchy beats and rhythms. He expressed, "Afrobeats is more than a catchy beat & rhymes, the message being passed across is equally very important."
In his critical evaluation of Victony's single, he suggested that the new-generation musicians lack songwriting skills and are producing similar content. He urged their audience to provide honest feedback, stating, "Their audience need to start telling ’em the truth."
In his own words: “Victony’s new single “Ohema” is greatly disappointing, it’s by far the worst afrobeats collab of 2023; A whole 14 artistes in one song, but couldn’t come up with a better theme or reasonable lyrics. He should’ve done something similar to “We Are the World” ft many artistes. The song is a must-skip for anyone who hasn’t streamed.
“If older artistes produced the type of songs this New-generation musicians are making, afrobeats would’ve been dead on arrival; Afrobeats is more than a catchy beat & rhymes, the msg being passed across is equally very important. These new artistes are talented but lack songwriting skills, & are all doing the same thing (literally). If we take away the massive PRs or streaming platforms, majority of their songs won’t surpass 24hrs in the spotlight. Their audience needs to start telling ’em the truth.”
