The music world continues to grieve the loss of Nigerian musician Mohbad in the aftermath of his tragic death.
Despite the grief and mystery surrounding his death, Mohbad became the first African artist without an album to have three songs debut on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. This success has reignited interest in his music and legacy.
It’s worth remembering that making the Billboard Hot 100 is no easy task. This list is very competitive and represents the most popular songs in the United States. It is a remarkable accomplishment for Mohbad to reach this milestone without even releasing a full album.
Paul Okoye, the entrepreneur and CEO of an African music festival, recently stepped forward to offer more details about the late artist’s final days.
Mohbad’s close acquaintance, told Paul about their last encounter. He explained that their paths had crossed in London, and that Mohbad had expressed grave fears about his safety during their meeting.
While Mohbad’s songs continue to gain fame, Naira Marley’s narrative is much different. The owner of the Marlians record label who has been investigated in connection with Mohbad’s death is being gradually separated from the Nigerian music business.
