The slowdown of Timi Dakolo…..
Timi Dakolo came into prominence via the maiden edition of Idols West Africa where he won, beating fellow finalist Omawumi to the winning prize.
Its been four years since that competition and yet this young man’s career has been shaky. Many have attributed this to his stubbornness and lack of dedication. Have you ever heard this man sing? Dude is a soulful and confirmed vocalist, the sound of his voice could melt the hardest of souls. But his 1st runner up Omawumi is miles ahead of him in the game, he can barely hold a touch to her presently and we wonder why?
Timi has signed under three different managements post-Idols and they usually end up parting due to irreconcilable differences. In this highly competitive industry, we all know that it takes more than talent to make headway, one must also be up and doing, fast and ready to work. Timi’s debut video “I love you” ft Jesse Jags had a lukewarm response on airplay, only few people got to ever see it on TV and it was as though they never really played it.
Its been over four years and we think Timi needs another claim to fame besides just being the winner of Idols West Africa.
