We are given a story from NotJustOk Nigeria: “Every detail of the Davido and Erigga clash on social media”
Step 1: Check relevance to reggae, dancehall, or Caribbean music culture.
– Davido is a Nigerian singer known for Afrobeats, which is a distinct genre that has roots in African music but is not reggae or dancehall.
– Erigga is a Nigerian artist who is associated with Afrobeats and also has some reggae influences? But note: the clash is on social media about their words.
However, the GX News Wire focuses on reggae and dancehall as the AP (the main news outlet for reggae and dancehall).
Important: The story is about a social media clash between two Nigerian artists in the Afrobeats scene. While Afrobeats has been influenced by reggae and dancehall (especially in the contemporary era), this specific story is about a clash in the Afrobeats space, not reggae or dancehall culture per se.
But note: The GX Network covers reggae and dancehall. The story is about a Nigerian artist (Davido) and Erigga (who is a Nigerian artist). The conflict is on social media and it’s about their words.
We must ask: Is this relevant to reggae, dancehall, or Caribbean music culture?
– Reggae and dancehall are Caribbean music genres (from Jamaica and the Caribbean).
– Afrobeats is an African genre (Nigeria) that has been influenced by reggae and dancehall (for example, the use of similar rhythms and structures) but it is not reggae or dancehall.
The GX News Wire’s mandate: “the AP of reggae and dancehall music”. So they are focused on reggae and dancehall.
This story is about a clash in the Nigerian Afrobeats scene. It’s not directly about reggae or dancehall. However, the influence of reggae on Afrobeats is a known thing. But the story itself is about a social media exchange that is not centered on reggae or dancehall culture.
Given that the story is about a clash between two Nigerian artists in the Afrobeats genre (which is not reggae/dancehall) and the GX Network is the AP for reggae and dancehall, this story is not genuinely relevant to reggae, dancehall, or Caribbean music culture.
Therefore, we reply with: SKIP
But let’s double-check the stories already covered to be sure? The problem says: Step 1: if not relevant, reply with just: SKIP.
Also, note: The story is from NotJustOk Nigeria, which is a Nigerian outlet. The GX Network is Caribbean-focused.
Conclusion: This story is not about reggae, dancehall, or Caribbean music culture. It’s about Afrobeats in Nigeria. So we skip.
However, let me be cautious: Erigga is
