Brymo: “‘Oleku’ Has One of the Greatest Hooks in Nigerian Pop History”
Nigerian singer-songwriter Brymo has sparked fresh conversation after sharing his thoughts on the iconic hit Oleku during an appearance on NotJustVerses.
Speaking on the song’s impact, Brymo described Oleku as having “one of the greatest choruses or hooks in the history of Nigerian pop,” emphasizing the record’s lasting influence on the country’s music landscape.
He also reiterated his long-held skepticism toward the term “Afrobeats,” stating, “There’s no such thing as Afrobeats. Brymo said so.” The remark is consistent with the singer’s previous comments questioning the label and how contemporary African music is categorized.
Brymo‘s comments have already begun generating reactions across social media, with fans and music enthusiasts debating both his praise for Oleku and his stance on the use of the term “Afrobeats.” While opinions remain divided, the conversation once again highlights the enduring legacy of Oleku and the ongoing discourse surrounding the evolution and identity of Nigerian popular music.
