3. Shoki
Original credit for this one goes to Lil Kesh, who nobody had ever heard of before this song came out. And with the song came the shoki dance, which looked somewhat confusing at first. But then Orezi came along with his own Shoki song which had more illustrative lyrics, that helped more people understand the dance. Hands outstretched, going down to the ground, coming back up and giving themselves ela, Nigerians looked ridiculous on dance floors all over the world but when did that ever stop us. What is undeniable however, is the versatility of the dance, I mean you can shoki from the club on a Saturday night into praise and worship on a Sunday morning.
