It is 5 weeks into the new year and the two biggest songs in the country are Fido's 'Joy Is Coming' and Lawrence Oyor's viral gospel hit 'Favour'.

Amidst Nigeria's tough economic reality which is the harshest in decades, this writer in a previous article pointed out that there is a need for musicians to make records that reflect the nation's social reality and document the times.
