The season of love is here again! Happy Valentine's Day to all lovers across the globe! To mark this special day, we at notjustOk.com have decided to put up a selection of The 20 Greatest Naija Love Songs of the Modern Era (21st Century).
It's important to note that there are several lovely tracks that didn't make the list, and that's simply 'cause we had to cut it down to the 20 most memorable love classics since the turn of the Century. As expected, veterans like 2face Idibia, D'banj, P-Square, Flavour are joined by new school pace-setters, Wizkid and Davido, with amazing songs that will surely stand the test of time. The ladies aren't left out either as Asa, Tiwa Savage and Waje play their part in making this selection a true masterpiece.
What makes every song on this list even more special is the fact that, even though they're either slow or mid-tempo, they all became monster hit singles in a market that's mainly dominated by fast-paced 120bpm (otherwise known as "tungba") music. Kudos to each and every one of these super-talents for blessing us with timeless music future generations will speak about.
