I saw the discovery video made by Lucky Udu on the current living condition of singer SKY B and I was deeply touched. Many didn’t know that SKY B and Timaya albums were pushed together same time into the Market by DANCO MUSIC who was a rice seller but was motivated into music marketing by the talents of TIMAYA and SKY B who were the raves of the moment from the South-South.

The singles of SKY B; PRAY FOR ME, I AM CALLING and that of TIMAYA; DEM MAMA, CALL ME TIMAYA amongst others were street and club bangers then.

As a music critic and analyst then, I discovered that where SKY B initially failed was the rush of his music videos which fell below expectations considering the hit of the songs. TIMAYA was very smart, he delayed the shoot of his own music videos and later came out with classy videos which complimented his hit songs. TIMAYA further moved to Lagos and expanded collaborations with further song productions from Oba K-Solo apart from Chiredu.

Timaya used the Lagos Advantage which is always recommended to creatives but SKY B stayed back. After struggling secretly, he pulled a death stunt and was later discovered to be alive and nothing was heard from him till this current video.

I wish him a great come back even if not into the currently highly competitive Nigerian music scene but to enjoy the benefits of his hit songs on all platforms to enjoy a better life.
