Reminisce reacts to NBC Ban
Reminisce has
reacted to the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission’s decision to ban his hit song, Tesojue.
Back
in August, the NBC had banned Tesojue alongside
some other songs, including Davido’s Fans
Mi and Masterkraft’s Indomie.
According
to Reminisce, the move has no effect on his career.
“The
ban on my song, ‘Tesojue,’ actually makes little or no difference. The song was
released last year and it enjoyed airplay towards the end of last year and
early this year. I am not someone who often goes to a radio station with my
songs, so the effect is very minimal. Although it is very disappointing, it has
little or no effect on my career or creative flow,” he said.
He
criticized the NBC for taking so long to make their decision, and urged them to
step up their work.
“I
think NBC should try to hire people that understand the industry because
abroad, they also have these laws but once the radio version is clean, they do
not disturb the artistes.”
“They
should create a screening board that would check our works and inform us of the
ones they feel are not for public consumption. It is not fair that they make us
go through the process of creating a hit song, and shooting the video with
millions and they later tell us the song is banned. What have they been doing
since?”
