eLDee - Big Boy Ft Olu Maintain, Oladele and Banky W [REVIEW]

 The term 'BIG BOY' selected as the track title, seems to have been chosen as a portrayal of the lavish lives wealthy Nigerian youths follow as the team address bad belles, a.k.a. haters, explaining their system of cash accumulation . This song was a hit on its release in 2008, achieving success in the entertainment capital (Lagos) and becoming somewhat of a club anthem.

The track is backed by a catchy blend of instruments including the violin, recorder and uniquely mastered software kicks and snares which contributed greatly to its success. Ironically however, the producer is unknown to the best of my knowledge (if known please share below) which is a major problem with the Nigerian entertainment industry...naija producers, a very important ingredient to the creation of Nigerian music are paid pennies as dues...they deserve more respect.

A video would have promoted record sales and popularity but Mr. eLDee choose not to. A mistake which would have cost him directly or indirectly. and whats the deal with the compulsory small letter 'e' preceding his name? feel free to voice your opinion.
