Dunsin Oyekan is overrated!

 

How do I caption this image? Anyways I am not a big fan and it is what it is. (Photo credit: Dunsin Oyekan)

I’ve come a long way on this journey and I’m proud of myself. Today is not for gloating so I will go straight to the point; I want to stir some people’s nest again like I have done a couple of times, I have tried as best as I could and still feel this way, Dunsin Oyekan is overrated.

You’re free to come for me, I have listened to him many times, I have attended concerts he headlined and I have tried to get connected and it hasn’t happened. I see him as a great singer and he deserves his following but can we play down the hype a bit?

Hey, this is me sharing my personal sentiment and you’re not supposed to agree. I am a bit Kizz Daniel fan and someone on my team can’t stand him, no worries… It’s fine. Not everyone liked Jesus Christ when He was roaming the earth physically so your fav can be questioned too right?

I’d been seeing people flirting with his most popular song, Fragrance to fire for a long time before I finally listened to it and when I did, same difference to be honest. I have never felt moved by his music and again, while I am happy to announce to you that he does good music, I am just saying I don’t feel him.

Step forward Nathaniel Bassey, there’s no time I hear this man that I don’t fall into the spirit, his music creeps into me from line to line, Dunsin Oyekan doesn’t give me that vibe; I have tried, I was patient and it doesn’t mean he’s not good at what he does, not just for me.

Lara George hits differently for me, worship that bursts my brains and connects me to the heavens without an HDMI cord, Dunsin Oyekan doesn’t gbe mi debe at all. I’ll rather Emma Oh My God in most instances than you people’s fav and that’s on Mary had a little lamb.

Steve Crown is a whole vibe too, haven’t heard lots of him of late but forget, that guy does it for me. Another gospel act people rate that I struggle to connect to is Eben, but today is about someone else so I won’t digress. I’m not asking you not to listen to your favs tho.

He is a great performer and his crowd always enjoys him; I am also proud of his journey and how he leads an inspiring life. He just doesn't give me that connection I crave for in a gospel artiste and that doesn't take anything away from his greatness. 

I’m not looking forward to lots of comments today but I know many people will hit my DM to drag me, I am not bothered. I will still next your fav when it comes on of course except I’m in the mood to listen to anything. Sola Allyson’s praises, oya gbe mi trabaye!
