“Afrobeats Don Too Choke” — Singer Slimcase Laments, Says Oversaturation of Songs and Albums Is Making the Genre Boring

Singer Slimcase has expressed concern over the current state of Afrobeats, saying that Nigerian artistes are releasing too many songs and albums.

“Too many songs, too many albums. Una too dey put una self for pressure for this Niger sha. Take a chill pill and be like Rihanna. Do other things and come back give us a fresh vibe.
