There are quite a number of things Nigerians expect before anyone can lay claim to ‘The Odogwu’ title in the Nigerian music space. As it appears not too many Nigerian artists lay claims to this title, however, in a new trend, popular Nigerian singer and pianist, Cobhams Asuquo, may just have bagged that title without even claiming it.
In a viral video shared on the Internet, the singer was seen making a cover of the very mainstream Nigerian song by DJ Neptune and Joeboy – ‘Nobody’ and fans have shown their massive love for the singer.

The video showed Cobhams singing and directing his crew as he scaled with the songs in many parts. The video also showed him playing the piano while he directed the crew and sang the song. Following all of that, a lot of people have shared just how talented and blessed he is to have an amazing voice.

Others, however, compared the singer to other artists that sang the same genre of music he is famous for, while they pointed out that unlike many other singers, Cobhams has little or no-hit songs at all, they shared that people are only gushing over his talent and hard work based on the video they have seen on the Internet.
Cobhams did a 6 note harmony on that Nobody video.
Bros is an alien. ?WTF!!

As it appears, many are seriously just pointing out how talented the singer is as they shared that, considering his inability to see, he works just as hard enough to land him the title of a legendry and iconic artist in the Nigerian music industry.
