Bracket's Mama Africa divides opinions
Published: 12 May 2014 | by Music Reporter
Bracket, the Nigerian music duo made up of Nwachukwu Ozioko aka Vast and Ali Obumneme aka Smash have released a video Mama Africa, which is proving quite divisive on YouTube.
Most people seem to love it with user Mustafa Abdille writing 'Love my continent and it's beautiful people. Time for another trip back home. <3 Mama Africa.'
Those unhappy mainly complain that their countries were not mentioned like Frenchkisssss who says 'Hey North 'africa is also in africa you know... :/.' and jack mcaset who wrote 'U shoulda mentioned Mauritius, it may be a small island, but its still part of africa.'
Overall, the song appears to have a lot of love because it has already passed the million viewers mark and mars22x wrote 'lol from jamaica and i love it , plus they got swag ! :) Cant stop replaying !'
The Bracket duo met at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, as students, where they mimed other people's songs such as R. Kelly, Tupac and other American artistes at various entertainment venues.
They competed in the Star Quest competition in 2002 and have been unstoppable ever since.
