Agbaletu is gradually written his name on gold Will become an evergreen like baba obey....thumbs up sir

This interview revealed the following: • That one has to listen to all sides involved in a saga before arriving at a conclusion. • That Obey is a deep and wise man who took cue from situations of the past • I love the great word of wisdom imparted to him by his father; Be cautious to speak, be cautious to see, be cautious to know. • That the show and the business should be separated you can’t mix both. • That joining a band means you have something to offer and not vice - versa. • Lastly that Obey is at peace with himself. I’m sure King Sunny Ade’s experience would not be too far from Baba Obey’s. Well done Agbaletu…🎉🎉🎉

I think we should move on from the band members related issues. There are other questions like, I) how his music evolved. His melody and pattern in the 60/70s is different from 80s ii) He is now a professor of music, how is the experience? What does he teaches, iii) what are his composition style and practice, iv) a type of juju is now called Obey style, what makes a music obey style? How does it evolved?

Hear baba voice @82 without instrument ......Long life baba

I'm a big or die hard fan of Chief commander Ebenezer Obey, he is my first choice in Juju music, please talk to Chief commander on our behalf to help Alagba Vasco Da gama move his bolojo music on CD , we really missed his bolojo brand of music.

Baba Ebenezer Obey is a complete gentleman. Looking at him alone touch me a lot. I learn a lot from this interview. He is a well accomplished man. We all need to be extremely patient in life. Thank you so much for all the evergreen musics you produced in our lifetime.

I grew up as a teenager to be a lover and diehard fan of Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey since late 70s to date.. Commander Obey is a living music legend ...Long life Commander..

Well done @ Agbaletu for bringing Commander Obey to us again. Wow! God bless Commander for remaining gracious to his former band partners and boys and for clarifying so many matters and allegations made by some of those people. As I always say, "where you sit not only indicate where you stand; but also what you see". Commander's report of Segun Awe abusing him as being "ugly" then is incredibly laughable. Agba ti o binu ni Omo re npo. Segun Awe calling anyone, especially Commander "ugly"? That only showed how immature, disrespectful and hot head he was then (he still is, going by the way he comes across in recent interviews) and he clearly didn't look himself in the mirror. He needs to. Wax on our Great Commander. Your memory is amazingly vivid for a man of 82.

❤Obey Baba Commander, God almighty will continue to bless you. Bravo.

Well done Dele Agbaletu for a patience-driven interview session you had with Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey. He has prayed for you that '' O ti ga na, oo de ni jabo.'' So shall it be in Jesus name. Waiting for fresh interview with KSA.

Baba chief commander Ebenezer obey God bless you sir Long life more in Jesus mighty name I can remember does days,kin mama alaso nta to yegba dani abewere nje lasi ni,2aimasiko londamu eda oo oro milowo Oluwa lowa 3Iya olomo mobae yo ire akari gbogbo wa,eseo tiwa na adeo amin God bless you to internity

Thanks once again for an amazing interview, Agbaletu! There's only one Baba Commander! God bless you real good,Baba! E maa pee fun wa loruko Jesu 🙏🙏🙏

God bless you agbaletu.. Pray baba live long and hearty, happy to see him, no wonder his albums are evergreen, I really love and respect baba Obey more, this is what KSA and Kwam1 should have done too, to clarify things, all this didn't bring anyone down but it for your fans and future generations. It's well, we all know what we are doing though!!! I give it to Agbaletu and Ejire Nigbati, pray you live long to reap the fruits of your labour..

Long life daddy temi nikan Ebenezer Obey more healthy strenght and vitality. I love you daddy. Greetings from Bayern Germany.

I will pay whatever am charged.Chief Akikunmi SHOYOYE the Are Onakankanfo of Ilawo in Abeokuta.Agbaletu please kindly do me this favor and I wil forever be grateful to you.

Fantastic interview Dele, almighty Allah shall bless you with abundant wisdom and grace

Agbaletu, agba ni e ntoto. Agba ni nu awo odo. Mo gba'dun e pelu ori pipe ati oro agba e.❤❤❤

Baba obey is a good father and leader.....he has used this medium to clear so many issues bothering on both band members and music as a whole.....long life baba obey....

Agbaletu, thank you once again for bringing Chief Commander Baba Obey here. I still remember some of his music with nostalgia as my late dad played his "Araye o e bami jo ....Ogoji odun ti mo ti n babo". Emi baba maa gun ni alaafia. Thank you Agbaletu!

The dean of old skool and transparency... Always on the move. Keep the journalism going! 50K subscribers next. Lets go!

Golden advise from Baba Commander. For all those who speak and spread negative information about Baba Obey commander may the Lord Almighty forgive you all. Long life and Prosperity in good health Sir.

The Adventure of A Wise Man...... Chief Ebenezer Obey.

I like Chief Ebenezer Obey personally. I love his music and songs! May God bless him and descendants forever and also his band members who helped him produce those evergreen musical outputs which will never be outdated at anytime. His music will last endless generations

Agba yin a dale sir. We love you sir. We learn a lot from you anytime you are interviewed. True legend!❤

Very good interview. Thumps up Agbaletu

DON’T let ego……what a good advice from commander to band leaders. A man who has seen it all. He who has ears to listen, let him listen.

Agbaletu, when next you meet with Baba Obey, please do ask him for the name of that Oyibo onile keji, that shouted fa fa fire fire ki panapana to de....

I can see that Baba obey is kindness personified. TUALE Sir! I pray for more blessings and sound health Sir

Great interview with a great man of honour. Baba KSA should also do his teeming fans to grant this type of interview to clarify lots of lingering issues.

More anointing to Grandpa Obey. Continue to age gracefully sir. Well done to Agbaletu.❤

Baba Commander I have respect for your wisdom and calmness. Your style of music is healing to many souls! Thank u sir. Alafia .ni fun yin o, Lola Oluwa.

Baba Obey, you are a real father and a man of God to the core that I only recognize in Nigeria.

Njemanze sir. Iwegbue from kwale

This interview will be a reference for live of CEO in music, the interview is loaded and you could see him, how he gave answers to the questions, and even willingly talk about many other stories. You see, when senior people like CEO shook their heads, sometimes close their eyes and then pause before they respond, to your questions, you better listen to learn. Please work on a date with KSA and Chief Obey at the same table, it will definitely enlighten generations. That will break the internet, and I really pray it happens soon. Good job, bro!

The question is, were you fair to them? There should be a written agreement. I hope the upcoming musicians can learn and do the right thing. Musicians are the boss, no doubt but the drummers and others deserve to be treated well. It is a collaborative business.

Very insightful! Towards the end of the interview, the iconic OBEY himself talked about music composition. We'll like his to talk more about this in subsequent interviews. 😊 Agbaletu, congrats! 💐

Your page and work, have keep me accompanying every day. Keep the good work, your interviews have been the best of all, and they will stand as best of all time.

Agbaletu, great job all round! You are amazing at your job! Deep knowledge of what you are interviewing for! Amazon rhythm, the accurate tone for each of the questions, I dove my hart for you brother. Baba Obey is the most calmest person on this planet! May baba live long in good health.

Please Agbaletu 🙏 could you interview those Dr Orlando Owoh's Band Boys who are still alive?...I'm a fan of Kenery.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ! Accusations by former band members against their band leaders should stop ! In any professional or occupational group one finds himself, it is extremely important to remember the future and plan for it. Blaming your woes on band leaders is untenable . A cue can be drawn from the amiable examples of the 3 pioneering band members from Akiko Area of ONDO State . They obediently and wisely took to Obey's counselling as regards acquiring a piece of land to build a house.

Chief Commander Olabiyi Ebenezer Obey🎉 Long live in sound health Sir. I enjoyed your musics & will still enjoy it more IJN. Agbaletu, you are an ICON 👌👌👌👌

I wish you long life sir. God will continue to renew your strength.

Mr Adeyanju ,l am so proud of you as regards to your response to my comment. Take care & more Grace .

Can we have another interview with Baba Obey where you talk about his music.Thats what most of us like and relate with Baba since our early days,not all about disgruntled band boys,even Baba’s late wife Juliana,how did he process the loss,his music is probably the most evergreen in the history of music at least in Yoruba land,and personally it brings back the memories of my late father as I remember his music on our gramophone on sallah day,what an icon,what an institution,together with King Sunny ade and fela anikulapo kuti,there will never ever be this talented musical trio that will reign for so long and still be relevant even up till todayic

Don’t move from band members stuff dats the main thing for outsiders like us everything revolves around dat. Carry on bro!❤

The Band Leaders should have just laid out a signed contract and put the Band Boys on a salary. That would have settled all these controversies.

Baba obey the ever green and highly polite and intelligent man. Love you Baba,

Agba i Like the man too much since i was living at Clifford street Alago meji Lagos Thank's Agbaletu

Baba commander...Ki emi ola o guun Sir, Olasupo Remilekun Fabiyi ❤

Agba yin a tun bo d'ale. Happy 82nd birthday Baba Obey.

Thank you, Thank you and thank you 😀😁👍

From my own personal experience in music, I deduce that Baba Obey drew musical inspiration from other talented musicians ; e.g. EMI YOO GBE OLUWA MI GA and OBLADI OBLADA 2. ORI BA YE MI and Rex Lawson's JOLLY PAPA; 3. ENI RI NKAN HE by Obey and ENI RI NKAN HE by Ambrose Campbell.

Hey. Agbaman. This is a hat trick; a coup. First Baba Onigbinde, now Baba Evangelist! Owo e a ma roke. But sha, you have to sort out your audio. God bless you brother!

Agbaletu, you are so dynamic. Bring sunny Ade too.

Chief Commander, e ku ojo meta sir.

Commander is a very great guy...he talks good about his band boys...kudis baba❤

Please who knows the Title of that song Obey sang for Sunny Ade ? Sunny Ade, Sunny Ade mi o. Please who knows the title 🙏

I just love this Baba obey with passion

Agba letu, O unbere question bi omode. O se maa but agbalagba pe onu to some ti eniti o soro ba gbo to ko gba in a big. That is not good enough. Human being is complex, some people have dead conscience. Even when they are reminded of certain bad situation in which they are involved they will never admit. Asking baba Commander that question is insulting but being a good man he did not even count it

In 1986 or so there was a song which you sang sunny ade also sang same but with different tempo Ori mi tete da MI lo hun Ori Ori BA MI SE temi

❤ this Father

He has the fear og God from the beginning .No wonder he succeeded

Onipetesi is located at Agege iloro. Baba can’t even recognize there again😂 we learning…Agbaletu carry on.

This is good move by Agbaletu.Please extend these opportunities to some other leaders who might have been similarly accused though I hope they will avail themselves of the opportunities.Weldone

Grace of God.

Dele Adeyanju, u resemble Baba Commander hooo, remember l told you when I first met you @ Methodist High school ilesa... hope Ebenezer obey songs are your favourite like mine?

KSA should be next. One can easily tell Obey is an honest man.

Baba no ugly, Baba wa pa, obey si nlu ilu lo....

Baba was actually right about the akoko connection. I know all of them I grew up in d same area in egbe. Giwa arigidi n Lawrence olowonyo's children and my childhood friends

LEGENDARY COMMANDER!! Facts right there bro!! Coker street, Lagooz...beta hospital and a legendary cyber cafe was on that street lol

Evangelist Ebenezer Obey.Baba even at 82 you are handsome.How many men can look like that? Envy and jealousy is what is disturbing them. Your achievement in juju music and music in general is second to non. You recorded over 50 albums all of them successful.One of Thiers was not successful. Don't mind detractors.That is how they're.

Agbaletu, I realized you have not talked to or interviewed Elder Vasco Da gama concerning his bolojo music career and we are looking forward to that, please make it happen.

Life is funny. That man, Sikiru Adepoju who hails from Eruwa in Oyo State went ahead to win Grammy. "Sikiru Adepoju won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary World Music Album in 2008 for his contribution to the title album of Mickey Hart's Global Drum Project at the 51st annual Grammy"-wiki One big issue that I see here is as a leader, when you have potential leaders or apparent leaders as your followers, there is need for a special management method.

Respect.

Agbaletu is encyclopedia of Nigeria musicians

Can I get contact for Baba Obey for a short birthday production

Obey is deep and experienced. I’ve loved him all my life and I will continue to love forever. However his attitude to the band after he left the band was not good enough. Maybe the offshoot band, using the old music (which they were part of) were not giving him royalties like the other guy that was giving him 200k. His defense was weak. However it’s one of those things. We are all human as he’ll want to defend his legacy. The boys would not label such accusation against him if there was no iota of truth. All the same the interview was great. I respect obey for ever.

Kola Olotu would have interrupted him over a million times.

Segun Awe said something that when he was doing launching Nobody showed up. I think that was the major bone of contention between him and Baba.

long life the music legend

So, it's band boys who murdered Ayinde Bakare! I never knew this until today.

Baba Obey Commander ❤️💯

Hi Agbeletu l do appreciate all you doing as regards to the music industry, most especially the juju and Fuji music.l feel it’s a great opportunity for you being able to seat to interview legends like Evangelist Ebenezer Obey and King Sunny Ade.l personally would appreciate if you could talk less of his band boys and do more in-depth interview of their personal life and the impact of their music.Chief Obey and King Sunny Ade are gradually getting old and l hope you are in a better position as a good journalist to assist them through your interviews to get their works well documented.Take care my friend and may you stay blessed.

Respect 🙏

Tunde Oshurinde is the name Obey was trying to remember

I now see why I like Labi Obey

I was hoping you would ask about how he composes his songs( Does he writes or he just sings). Also, how he felt when he heard about Oke aminu’s death.

Should have dedicated this interview on his musical origins history big opportunity to have access to this big psalmist a true shinning star morning star, scandal free longevity

Baba you are handsome forever ❤❤

😢The music legend the juju mestro ❤❤

Kudos to the interviewer and the King of juju himself

Eku atotonu baba... Ọgbọ́n ọlọ́gbọ́n kò jẹ ki a pé àgbà ní were

Baba commander, you're still the deal.

Baba Obey the legend

Baba Obey is a true reflection of Good Man. His humility is a top notch and worthy of emulation in this our generation.

Correct! If you can lead a band successfully you can successfully rule a nation. Oh yea aaa.
