A netizen with the X handle @Lahon199x addressed this issue, stating that Nigerian female artists have a better chance of becoming global A-listers than achieving the same status in Nigeria. The X user wrote: “Nigerians in general are still not receptive to Female music
“You will see female dominating or at least equal to the men in other countries’ music industry
“But In Nigeria?..Our female artistes have more chances of being A-list globally than being A-list in Nigeria.”
Reposting this tweet, Don Jazzy commented, “And it’s so sad. The women put in soooo much work.”
