Micheal Ajereh Collins, Nigerian music producer and
artiste better known as Don Jazzy, has said that foreign
artistes are scared to make music with him.
He said this while speaking in a recent interview
conducted by Boiler room in collaboration with British
Council.
“Most of these American artistes would call you, they
believe you have something that they like, so they call
you to come and try something out”, Don Jazzy said.A
bunch of people that I have tried to work with or have
tried to work with me chicken out at the end of the day
because they aren’t really ready for the music change;
they want me to tweak it till it gets back to their sound.
“I can give you your sound, but then, you called me for
something and then I try to give to my sound and I want
you to do your thing on top of it which would give the
sound a wider recognition but they say they aren’t
ready for this switch drastically. I think they are still
scared.”
The 33-year-old Mavin boss said he started paying
more attention to music during the Kennis Music era.
“I would say I started listening more during the
Kennis music time because after Storm records,
then it was a time for Kennis music and they
came with Tuface, Remedies and all.
“At that point, I was still in secondary school and
I was like “Yo! They were putting a lot of swags
into this my work”. So I started taking note of the
music and it started shaping me into what I
would like to do but then, there was no way for
me to do it.”
Don Jazzy also said that Nigerian music is designed to
make people happy during their struggles.
“Everyone is struggling; we all have a problem in
the country but there are sometimes when we
need that peace of mind.
“While some people are consciously trying to
make you aware of what is going on in the
struggle, there should be other people that would
keep you happy when you are going through the
struggles and that is where we come in.”
