                           CONTROVERSIAL TOP 5 BENUE RAPPER LIST 

Just recently the Nigerian music industry went wild with controversy shortly after Nigeria's number one Music site Notjustok posted a list of best rappers, a list that brought about grudge to an extent top Nigeria rappers including Godwon, Sinzu, Rukus and others had to take shots at each other on tracks showing why they should be the best, their lyrical strength, creativity, wordplay, punclines and so on got Nigerian Hip Hop alive.

to think this "Top Rapper List" controversy is over and suddenly have it fresh in Benue Music Industry as one of Benue's biggest music blog CyberBunk unveils a creative but controversial Top 5 rapper list  from 2012-2013 after a lot of research and scrutiny as claimed by the blogger.

it became an issue that triggered Benue Entertainment Blog into making this post as our Hot line kept receiving calls from other top rappers whom Benue Entertainment Blog have decided to keep on cover,  they complained that their names was not on the list as posted by Cyberbunk and they kept asking if we (benueent) were part of the plight to humiliate their efforts as well deserved rap talents the city have got.

A rapper in his call was like "Goshhh Damnn (in an aggressive tone) pls benueent whats that list am seeing ? about best 5  rappers in Benue by that "Cyberbunk Blogger " he called the list a trash as he felt his name was too awesome and should be on the list of  Benue Top 5 rapper.

 

Another caller this time not a rapper but a hip-hop lover complained of his favourite artist "SOULZ" taking the last position on the list.

Now, If u ask me ***in Omawumi's voice***(Na Who i go ask) the list is indeed creative and intelligent but with names of big talents like :

  • TK SWAGG

  • COZY

  • BEESLINGA

  • VINCI QUEST

                       BENUE TOP 5 RAPPERS 2012-2013


                         
In recent years, there have been signs of growth, hardwork and positive competition in the Benue Hip-hop scene. If you are a follower of the Nigerian Hip-hop movement you would agree with me  that Benue emcees can now go head to head with most of their peers nationwide and state a claim to their relevance to the Hip-hop community at large.

In the past year (2012) to the third quater of 2013, a handful of rappers have dropped #GoodMusic with relevant content and consistent materials. We scrutinized materials of all relevant emcees and they were judged based on content, delivery, skills, wordplay, puchline, catchy flows and  rhyming ability.

Here is the list of the Top 5 rappers in Benue State.



1. DANNI: popularly calleds prince  of the middle belt is known for his pidgin flows. He is also a versatile rapper due to his ability to blend on commercial and Hip-hop beats.His single ZAMEMA  brought him a lot of attention, street cred and got featured on THE FLOW by Godwon  alongside Blaqbones and Mofame.His most recent single 5am in Makurdi, where he showed his lyrical ability and catchy pidgin flows.



2. KOBOKO: He is the kind of rapper that makes you think to figure out his lyrics and also a conscious rapper that raps about things happening around him.In 2012, Koboko was featured on ONE DAY by A-Q alongside Boogey and ButaFly and he also got his street cred from the single I DEY LOYAL .This Benue rapper showed us the conscious side of him on JUDAS which he expressed his ill feelings about Benue entertainment.His catchy flows and wordplay tend to distinguish him from other rappers.His most recent joint FOR UR MIND says it all about his personality.He also has an EP titled Extra Curriculum to his cred.




3. DAT KID CHEFF: Formally known as Rapcheff, first got massive attention in 2010 after his freestyle on Wiz Khalifa's Black and Yellow.
