Former West African Idol contestant and ‘Botom Belle’ crooner, Omawumi Megbele better known by her stage name as ‘Omawumi, has blamed the loss of live performance due to the advent of musical software.
The artiste stated that though it cost a lot to do a live performance, but feels it is the ideal way of convincing your audience that you are original and you what you are doing.
According to her, “A regular album is mainly produced in a studio. If you understand the mechanics of working in a studio, you’ll know that most of the sounds you hear are softwares already installed on a computer and producers can use these computer-generated sounds to make music.”
But what I am trying to do with a live album is trying to tow the line of people like Femi Kuti, Asha, Angeli Kidjoe, Yosou Ndour who make live albums. When you hear the sounds, you know they are real music instruments, though it costs a lot of money, but its real music and it’s worth
