The 1980s were a pivotal decade for Nigerian music, as international pressures, homegrown independent labels, and a generation of artists raised on Fela, jùjú, and highlife pushed the country's sound into genuinely new territory. What emerged was a polyglot mix that would quietly underpin the global dominance of Afrobeats decades later, yet much of it has remained nearly impossible to find outside Nigeria until now.
