Too much autotune and wasaaqnimo in todays music

100% you can tell by how nearly every Somali song is a cover of old ones. I think I’ve heard like 100 different versions of Ilwaad Qurux.

When I first listened to cago dhigo I had to turn it off immediately. There's zero shame by these new artists

No creativity with the lyricism. The Somali language is so vast! What happened to creating stories with the music.
