Nigerian Broadcasting Commission[NBC] Bans Olamide's Artist, Lil Kesh’s ‘Shoki’

In a recent tweet by award winning Beat FM on air personality Tolu Oniru, Toolz, the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has just banned the smash hit tune ‘Shoki’ by Lil Kesh.



The NTBB (Not To Be Broadcast) ban is nothing new in Nigerian music, as it’s been placed on several hit singles in the past. The news broke earlier today via popular Beat FM OAP, Toolz on twitter. She goes on to add that apparently, “Shoki” means “Quickie“. So, this must be their reason. Yoruba folks in the house, Is this true?

The funny thing is… we could even start using the NBC ban as a yardstick for “hit” status. If your song doesn’t get banned, it’s not a hit

The radio personality wrote, ‘No way! NBC just banned Shoki!!! Ahhhh shoki!’ She went on add that ‘Apparently shoki means ‘Quickie’ in yoruba…never heard that before’.

Even though the NBC is yet to update the recent development on their official website, some of the artistes concerned have started commenting on the ban.

Recall that there are three very popular versions of the ‘Shoki’ song done by YBNL’s Lil Kesh, Orezi, and Dre San.

Responding to the ban, Lil Kesh wrote, ‘Lmfao! NBC don ban my song o! Shout out sawon goons mi. thanks for the love and the support #TeamYBNL’.
