Top 8 Most Richest Music Producers In Nigeria, No 2, 3 & 4 Are Demons!

NIGERIAN PRODUCERS WITH THEIR QUALITY OF WORK HAVE ADDED A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF VALUE TO THE QUALITY OF MUSIC THAT WE ENJOY IN NIGERIAN MUSIC TODAY.

REASONS WHY WE LOVE THE NIGERIAN MUSIC IS DUE TO THE QUALITY OF WORK THE PRODUCER PUTS INTO MAKING BEATS AND COMING UP WITH THE VISION OR SOUND OF THE HIT SONG THAT WE LOVE SO MUCH. ONCE THIS SOUND IS CREATED, THE PRODUCER THEN HANDS IT TO THE ARTIST OR ASSISTS THE ARTISTS AS THEY DELIVER THEIR LYRICS OVER THE INSTRUMENTAL.

A LOT OF PRODUCERS HAVE CONTRIBUTED THEIR VISION AND SKILL TO MAKING SOME OF THE BIGGEST SONGS THAT HAVE COME OUT OF NIGERIA. THESE PRODUCERS ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER BY BOTH ESTABLISHED AND UPCOMING ARTISTS IN THE HOPES OF GETTING A SMASH, OVERWHELMING SINGLE.

SEE THEIR NAMES BELOW:

8. PHEELZ

OLAMIDE’S IN HOUSE PRODUCER WHO BLESSED HIM WITH PRODUCTION FOR DUROSOKE, RAYBAN ABACHA, BADDO LOVE AND COUNTLESS OTHER HITS FOR BADDOO HIMSELF. PHEELZ ALSO WORKED WITH VECTOR AND OTHER ARTISTS DURING THE PAST YEAR

7. TEKNO

He’s been self producing for a while … he produced his hit single dance, last station for stoneboy and most recently super smash single by DAVIDO – IF

6. MALEEK BERRY

Before we knew Maleek Berry, most of us had been dancing to beats and instrumentals he crafted on Sinzu’s Carolina featuring Davido which was a huge tune in the party scene and on radio in 2012. Shortly after the success of Carolina, Wizkid got closer to the British raised producer and signed him to his Starboy Ent imprint, but prior to signing, Maleek Berry got Wizkid to feature on his own single The Matter which is doing well commercially.

Maleek also blessed another artist, Wande Coal by producing My Way. Other notable songs delivered by Berry include the very catchy New Bounce ft Wizkid & Phenom and Wande Coal’s latest single Kilaju.

5. FLIPTYCE

If producers collected publishing checks across Africa, Fliptyce would probably be the richest in 2012. Chop My Money remix featuring Akon & May D was a huge success all over the African continent and the usual suspect Fliptyce created its foundation.

Fliptyce also blessed the departed Square records artist and now Confam CEO, May D with his biggest single till date Ile Ijo.

4. LEGENDURY BEATS

The duo producers, Legendury Beatz were involved in creating the beat and instrumental to a single that was supposed to be a mere freestyle but became an undeniable hit for Wizkid’s Azonto.

They also laced some beats on the EME Allstar album and scored the first single, Baddest Boy. Recently Legendury Beats produced the debut Star Boy single Caro which is slowly becoming a party favorite. Other key productions include Brymo’s Ara, Chidinma’s Emini Baller, Drop by Wizkid featuring Wale, to name a few.

3. Shizzi

Shizzi proves that he is not a fluke and 

continues to provide the right sounds to 

produce hot records. Although he mostly 

produces for the HKN gang, he delivered 

2 stand out singles in 2013 alone, Gobe 

and Skelewu for the HKN general, Davido 

which set him apart from many good producers out

He also produced songs for other 

notable acts such as May D on his debut 

album and Wizkid (Body) off the EME All 

Star Compilation album

2. DON JAZZY

Oliver Twist which is arguably the biggest exported song directly out of Africa in recent memory was produced by none other than Don Jazzy.

After the separation from D’banj and the demise of the Mo’hits brand, Jazzy went on to start Mavin records which housed Tiwa Savage, D’Prince, Dr SID and Wande Coal (who has since moved on to start his own label, Black Diamond Ent).

Don Jazzy produced about half of Tiwa Savage’s debut album, blessed his blood brother, D’Prince with his Goody Bag single and the Frenzy album. Another notable single he produced is Wande Coal’s The Kick which continues to grow.

1. SARZ

Sarz is probably everyone’s favorite producer and if we compiled this list with sentiments, he would have easily made africas #1. Other than the fact that he produced major hits for superstars such as Wizkid on his hit single Jaiye Jaiye and majority of eLDee’s most recent album, Sarz also has a massive single of his own out now titled Beat of Life (Samba) which has been killing airwaves and clubs for the past year.
