TWO REVISED BOOKS FOR SALE BY DJ ÌRÀWỌ̀

Gender Discrimination in the Nigerian Music Industry: A Musician’s Reflection is my presentation delivered as an independent scholar at the 8th Annual Lagos Studies Association conference, held at the University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos State, on June 21, 2023. I edited it into an eBook in 2025.

 

So, if you need mentoring as a Nigerian female musician, I suggest you buy this book to read the experiences of thirteen Nigerian female musicians such as DJ Ìràwọ̀,

Simi, Níníọlá, Niyola, Yẹmí Àlàdé, etc. 

 

It is also important for the parents and guardians of these female musicians to know what to expect and how to protect their daughters and guardians from predators in the music industry.
