At the show, D’banj first took the stage, hitting the ground with his hit song Emergency, off his 2017 album King Don Come. The music legend has been entertaining the Nigerian music fans since 2005, when he first released his first hit single, Tongolo, and his performance at the Nigerian Idol season 7 brought memories back.
Simisola Bolatito Kosoko, known by her stage name Simi left the Nigerian Idol audience asking for more with her 2020 hit single Duduke, in what was an electrifying performance.
It’s one of Nigeria’s biggest music competitions and music was not lacking.
Pheelz also excited the #NigerianIdol audience with his hit song ‘Finesse’ as he performed live on stage.
As the show wore on, D’banji joined voices with the finalist to perform his song “Someone Heard My Prayer.” D’banj shared that the loss of his son a few years back inspired the song. He believes God answers prayers, and what God cannot do does not exist.
