This one unrecognised Nigerian Artiste. So much endowed with content and makes it to dance all. Not the usual Money, Alcohol and women lyrics. So so underrated

@adekoyaadeniran2336

Content you should mention. He has content than any other artiste in Nigeria. I mean sensible content. No one comes close if we have to exclude ASA and Adekunle Gold

@ogbeni6936

Oritshefemi is not only talented but has also been consistent over the years. I admire him so much. Much love, brother.
