The 5 hottest jobs in the Nigerian Entertainment Industry

by - 14:07


Davido’s Fia, Sola Sobowale’s Wedding Party, Toke Mankiwa’s TokeMoments, AY’S comedy series or Mo Abudu’s EbonyLifeTV. These are just a few elements that spice up the Nigerian Entertainment Industry. Everyone’s spare time would kinda be boring if they don’t use it to watch a funny Nollywood movie, listen to the latest hits of a singer, be inspired by a great talk show or laugh their heart out with an awesome comedy series. Interestingly, Nigerian Entertainment doesn’t only serve the purpose of having a great impact. It can also generate a great wealth. 

You can bear me witness. Not all youngsters want to bury their head on books or have a white-collar job. The dreams of young ones today are mainly related to the “stage”, the “spotlight”, the “dancefloor” or “the cameras”! Even in school, after or before classes you would see a small group of people deliberating on the next concert they will organize on a Saturday at the university. Trust me, I was part of it! 

We are going to discuss about the 5 hottest jobs in the Nigerian Entertainment Industry that young people, with vigorous blood running through their veins, are seeking after.

Music artists


Some boys and girls are not just satisfied with singing in the bathroom. They see themselves facing an audience. An audience that claps for them, dance for them, sing with them. They see themselves on a stage. That’s why they don’t just enjoy Wizkid, Olamide , Phyno or Flavour. They want to be like them. They aspire to sing better than them. They want to create their own brand and those music artists on top only make them believe in themselves. So if you have a killer voice, or are an awesome songwriter, why don’t you give music a try and listen to YOUR songs being played on the radio stations? How about that?


Actors/ Actresses


Hahahahaha! Do you know why I am laughing? I can’t seem to forget all the scenes of Sola Sobowale at the “Wedding Party”. I mean it’s was hilarious. Not just the Wedding Party! Jenifa’s diary, Husbands of Lagos, Lekki Wives. Every movie or series is liked by millions of Nigerians. They are so many talented boys and girls that you think the study of theatre arts was written for them. Genevieve Nnaji, Mofe Damijo, Ini Edo, Great Mama G , Van vicker, Mercy Johnson. Do you see all these actors and actresses as just idols or do you see yourself replacing their throne and become an irresistible actor/actress? Food for thought.


Comedians


Lol! Lmfao! Laughing emojis. This is how you reply when you see a comedy show or video on Twitter or Instagram. And you don’t stop there. You will download the video, store it on your phone and sharing with others in the physical or electronic world! You know why? Because it’s makes you laugh! It’s entertaining! AY, Bovi,or Gordons have a way of turning a usual daily routine into a hilarious video shoot. You may be among those ones would have this special charisma of making people laugh, divert people’s attention from crying to laughing. Perhaps you are even among those would are funny but also innovative enough to be build your own brand. The last one kinda reminds me of Lasisisi Elenu! HAHA! This guy uses snapchat to make himself look funnier with the jokes he cracks. He is saturating Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. The Question is: Are you good enough to make money out of mind-blowing jokes? Food for thought!


Talk shows


Women, aren’t you feeling inspired when Toke Makinwa tells you that you can be a sharp babe when you invest in YOURSELF? Aren’t you motivated to take your career to the next level when classy business women or celebrities are being interviewed? Aren’t you touched to hear the success stories of womanhood? Aren’t you curious to view the lifestyle of others like BBNaija? Of course you are! That it is why you take your time to watch these substantial videos of people’s lives and blessings. You feel you can be a part of it. You feel you can actually have more than they do. You might as well as want to OWN a show that brings these stories to limelight. If you are, why don’t give it a try and own a show that bridges celebrities and successful people with fans and followers.


Lifestyle Bloggers/ Vloggers


And here we are. These are interesting individuals who either disseminate latest news on business, politics and gossips such as Linda Ikeji, Olorisupergal, Bellanaija or they are the ones that randomly select mind-blowing topics to deliberate, like Cruise Africa. There are others in the YouTube industry who video shoot themselves while talking about matters that trend, like TokeMoments. If you are a good content writer with an interest on a specific field , why don’t you give it a thought and start blogging or vlogging?. 


The buttom line is : DO YOUR THING!  Nobody is going to do it for you. You are the one to bring your dreams to reality! You are the one that will confront life and stay celebrated. You are the ONE! Cruise Africa!
