From Enugu With Love: 5 Anthems

Jidenna

Enugu is the unofficial "capital" of the South East and is probably the most ethnically diverse city in that neck of the woods.

The town has given many things to talk about from the legendary Rangers Football Club to its beautiful scenery and not to mention its history of musical talent.

The story of Nigerian music would be incomplete without the repertoire of some famous artistes who either lived in, grew up or came of age in the Coal City. The likes of Sonny Okosun, William Onyeabor, Nelly Uchendu, Tuface Idibia and Celestine Ukwu are just a sprinkling. Start on the likes of Flavour Nabania and we'll be at this all day.

Here are 5 Enugu anthems from the last couple of years that we love silly. Enjoy!

1. UKWU (2010) By Flavour Nabania
    Awesome joint collabo by Flavour and Stormrex. This song was on rotation for years...no kidding. No video sha but we still love it.



2.  ALOBAM (2014) By Phyno
