Musician Dax Vibez has weighed in on the debate, questioning the influence of Eddy Kenzo and Joshua Baraka, specifically in the international market.
While many were debating on which of them had much influence outside the local market, Dax Vibez revealed that none of them had impressed him enough yet, despite stepping on big stages.
Comparing the industry with the Nigerians, Dax reveals that he expected Kenzo and Baraka to use their influence and open doors for the rest of the artists, just like P-Square and 2Face D’banj did for their industry.
“There are Nigerians who went out and left the door open for those behind them. I want someone who does the same for our industry to be exported outside. If that one artist who has gone international leaves the scene, we have to search for another who will carry the flag. So we want someone who will make our industry like the Nigerian industry,” Dax Vibez said.
Baraka was recently recognized as the first Ugandan to perform at the prestigious Afro Nation festival in Portugal and received a MOBO Award nomination, among others. Eddy Kenzo, on the other hand, has scooped international awards and performed on international stages.

In the same vein, Dax Vibez accused them of getting networking connections to bigger opportunities but hiding them from fellow artists because they prefer to be the only ones on top.
“They get their breakthrough, but then hide the links and connections from others; he will easily share them with others,” Dax said.
