10 Hit Songs from DMW

An Overview: 10 Hit Songs From DMW

The NotjustokVS has been a resounding achievement for creators across the music industry. In our own unique way, we've celebrated artists, cities, and record labels.

Sometime ago, we hosted the label "battle" with the iconic Mo-Hits pitted against Square Records. Perhaps the biggest and widely received VS we've organised, we thought it wise to engage two leading Nigerian record labels: YBNL (Yahoo Boy No Laptop) founded in 2012 by Olamide and Davido Music Worldwide (DMW), which, as we know, was setup in 2016 by OBO.

Both labels have boasted music superstars, and in turn produced hits from each camp. Today we continue with 10 hit songs from DMW.

Peruzzi – Majesty 

When Peruzzi collaborated with 2Baba on "Amaka" (2018), many knew a talent was upon us. He tried with several song but none brought forth a (solo) hit record... Until "Majesty," off the Heartwork project. Like "Jealous," it was made popular by a video which starred former BB Naija housemate Cee-C, and was visual representation for Peruzzi's classic love record.

Mayorkun – Mama

Nowadays known as the Mayor of Lagos, Mayorkun was put on by Davido after impressing with a rendition on Instagram. "Mama," was his second song, after "Eleko," a hit in its own right. "Mama," suffice to say, is an iconic record, well-written and properly sung, and will be mentioned amongst hits any day, any time.

DMW ft. Duncan Mighty, Davido & Peruzzi – Aza 

When Port Harcourt's finest Duncan Mighty made a resurgence to music fame in 2018, everyone wanted a song with him. "Aza" was one of the better songs of that great run, facilitated by DMW, and features Peruzzi and Davido who, alongside Wene, gave us an anthem for rich people with money to spare. "Baby you wan see my wire/oya send your aza!!!" 

Our list of 10 hit songs from DMW continues below 

Dremo ft. Davido – Kpa

Dremo has always dubbed himself "rapper wey dey sing song" and he's backed that claim with his attempts at Pop beats, especially on pon pon sounds t DMW are known for. "Kpa," off Codename Vol. 1, is one such song.

Davido – 1 Milli 

In November 2019, Davido released his sophomore album, A Good Time. A sprawling project which housed a couple couple of (relatively old) hit songs, "1 Milli," an infectious ode to Love, grew from the newer songs on that project, becoming a modern classic.

Mayorkun – Geng 

"Geng" has been one of the biggest songs of 2020, a year notoriously slow with hits. Having adapted his rapper tendencies into a resounding jam, Mayorkun brilliantly worked the moment into a 4-track EP featuring, among other rappers, M.I Abaga and Vector. You know me? Who? Geng! 

Davido – Fall 

Ever since 2017 when it was released, Davido's Kiddominant-produced "Fall" has continuously risen in profile, even though its viral moments are largely over; at least in Nigeria. In America and Canada, the record has earned itself multiple certification plaques.

DMW, Davido & Zlatan Ibile – Bum Bum 

In the early moments of the Shaku wave which would go on to be popularized by rapper Zlatan Ibile, Davido featured on a couple of songs with him. "Bum Bum," a loud jam which banged in the loudest spaces, both artists getting first taste of what would be a fruitful musical partnership.

DMW ft. Davido, Peruzzi, Mayorkun & Dremo – Mind 

It's a known fact that DMW posse cuts rarely flop. Each four of its top acts, in 2018, came together to fuse their uniqueness to create an Afro Pop banger worked by the skilled fingers of in-house producer Fresh VDM. 

Mayorkun ft. Davido – Bobo

"Na money be fine bobo" was just about the most popular phrase of the time, a tidbit of popular culture hinged on money and romance. Mayorkun, with verses dripping with cheeky puns, does justice to the record, and Davido complements him greatly.

There you have it! Our favorite 10 hit songs from DMW.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
