Singer Ric Hassani recently discussed his thoughts on the Afrobeats genre, suggesting that the quality of the music has diminished significantly over the years.
He expressed that while past hit songs were of high quality, the current hits are lacking in substance.
Ric Hassani shared his views during a recent appearance on Channels TV show, Rubbin’ Minds with Ebuka.
He said, “Afrobeats is Nigerian music. Our guys are top 10 and I feel like because of that the quality of music might stop dropping because more people want to get in. So the quality is really dropping.
“Back in the days, hit songs were serious music but now almost anybody is just coming in. Most of the hit songs in Nigeria now are not very good music. Back in the days it wasn’t like this. I feel like because we have been number one for so long, everybody is just dropping whatever they like and throwing money behind it.”
