“I Wish I was From Nigeria” – SA Rapper, Cassper Nyovest | See Why

Popular South African rapper, Cassper Nyovest wowed his country people and others when he took to Twitter to reveal that he wishes he was from Nigerian because of the unison that lives in their music.

Cassper, who was nominated for the BET Best International Act award back in 2018, alongside two other Nigerian music artistes, Tiwa Savage and Davido, said in his tweet, he likes how Nigerians love and celebrate their own culture and indulge in it more.

He wrote in his tweet,

Won’t even lie. I wish I was from Nigeria too. The love they have for their own artists, the way they celebrate their culture, 90% local content on radio and Tv, the way they celebrate their music no matter where they are in the world, the unity within their industry. A DREAM!
