Actor, On- Air Personality (OAP), and events producer, Yaw, has dismissed the growing perception that artistes must make raunchy or explicit music to achieve commercial success in the entertainment industry.
In a recent interview with The Nation, the media figure stressed that quality music still has a place in the hearts of many Nigerians, citing evergreen artistes like Cobhams Asuquo and Timi Dakolo as examples.
“Some people will tell you that if you don’t sing dirty songs, you won’t sell. A lot of people believe that way, but I’m more of a different opinion,” Yaw said. “There are lots of people who still want to listen to the likes of Cobhams and Timi Dakolo. Whether you like it or not, that’s what they want to listen to.”

Yaw also recalled the massive turnout at his December event, ‘Rewind! A flashback, which was dedicated to old-school music. According to him, the experience proved that good, clean music can still draw a crowd.
“When I did my concert in December for the OGs, do you know what Daddy Showkey told me? He said, ‘Yaw, I no know say people go come out like this for us.’ It was strictly old-school, and the crowd was something else.”
Yaw concluded by urging creatives to focus on substance over shock value. “These days, people think that if they don’t talk dirty, it won’t sell, but if you come out with a good product, people will go for it. That’s what I believe in.”
