Last week, Lady Donli released a new song, “Comforter”, a spirited jam which drew inspiration from the musical tastes of last decade. Upon hearing that track, we were transported back to the noughties and thus decided to dive into the archives of the 2000s.
Coming to the last year of the decade, 2009, we noticed that the stars who provided hits that year are still in the business of doling out bangers today — Wande Coal, Waje and P-Square (though they have separated) to name a few.
The evolution of popular music has been seamless but also drastic in retrospect, so looking back at what our afropop mainstays sounded like on some of the most seminal songs of that period was definitely a worthwhile exercise.
In the spirit of sharing our findings, we at Konbini decided to compile a list of our favourite songs from 2009, and our commendations go to the artists behind them, almost all of whom are still pretty relevant today.
