NBC Bans “Shoki” by YBNL Artiste, Lil Kesh
Post by Ovie O, September 17th, 2014
This is a perfect case of “too little too late”. The
highly unpopular regulatory body in Nigeria,
NBC (National Broadcasting Commission) has
placed a ban on YBNL artiste, Lil Kesh‘s smash
single “Shoki“; arguably the hottest song in
Nigeria right now.
The NTBB (Not To Be Broadcast) ban is nothing
new in Nigerian music, as it’s been placed on
several hit singles in the past. The news broke
earlier today via popular Beat FM OAP, Toolz on
twitter. She goes on to add that apparently,
“ Shoki” means “Quickie“. So, this must be their
reason. Yoruba folks in the house, Is this true?
The funny thing is… we could even start using
the NBC ban as a yardstick for “hit” status. If
your song doesn’t get banned, it’s not a hit.
On a more serious note, what are your thoughts
on this?
