What if we told you that Afrobeats, Big Brother Nigeria, and one of the most powerful creative revolutions in Africa were all connected by one man?
In this episode, we sit down with Obi Asika—media mogul, cultural architect, and one of the founding forces behind Nigeria’s rise as a global soft power. From launching game-changing music labels in the ‘90s to embedding Nigerian music into reality TV, Obi has always seen the vision before the world caught on.
We talk about:
How Nigeria became a global cultural superpower
The real story behind Afrobeats (and who really started it)
The truth about soft power, IP, and why Africa must control its narrative
What every young creator must understand about value and legacy
How Big Brother Nigeria helped launch a media revolution
Jay-Z, Fela, Flavor, and the mindset behind long-term greatness
This isn’t just an interview—it’s a masterclass in cultural strategy, legacy-building, and African excellence.
If you’re a creative, entrepreneur, or diasporan looking to understand the future of African influence—this episode is for you.
