There was so much that happened in the
Nigerian entertainment scene in 2013 but sadly only a few blogs stand
out with a unique style of reporting. In an arena where plagiarism is
commonplace, only a few are playing by the rules and building a credible
brand.
This is LETSDANZIT list of blogs which were worth checking in 2013.
360nobs
The online platform now blogs beyond music; expanding into society, politics and general interest. Building, in the process, a broader audience base that grew its traffic tremendously.

BellaNaija
From those memorable weddings photos, stunning red carpet picks to topical relationship advices, Bella still appeals to the mainstream, although trendy women of all ages lead their pack of avid readers. Now increasingly interested in juice and gossip, we’re hoping the BN team will push BN Weddings and Aso Ebi Bella more next year.

Charles Novia Daily
You call him controversial, we call him critical. During the year Charles Novia moved his notorious articles from his Facebook to his new blog Charles Novia Daily. Whether he was analysing Maheeda’s ‘nude madness’ or calling the French racists, the filmmaker’s blog was a good read.

Diary by Emmy Collins
On his blog this year, Fashion designer Emmy Collins called out almost everybody in the Nigerian entertainment industry and got them second guessing their evening gown before they walked the red carpet. And where he thought a celeb was doing something right, he gave praise too. We love him for not watering down.

First Time Mom
Cool FM’s Temilola ‘Taymi’ Balogun welcomed her first child in 2013 with rapper-turned-dentist Timi and four months later was inspired to start her ‘First time Mom’. You’d be intrigued and humoured with Taymi’s honest opinions and first-time mistakes. PS: She won ‘Parenting Blog of the Year’ at the Nigerian Blog Awards 2013.

Linda Ikeji’s Blog
The biggest blog in Nigeria still remains Linda’s Ikeji’s. The 33-year-old continued to serve her readers the juiciest stories and gossips all year round, building a brand that’s more influential than she’d ever have imagined. From a controversial gossip and celeb frenemy, LIB moved to become a beloved platform in 2013, adding some breaking news to her credit, and warming up to high society where she’s since been accepted with wide open arms.

Movie Moments
In less than a year ‘Momo’ showed us a different side of Nollywood, reporting the grey areas of the industry while still dishing us the glamorous side. Big Props.

Stella Dimorkorkus
Stella impressed us this year with her tongue-in-cheek gossip stories, mostly opinionated and well directed. She may have arrived late to the party, but she’s getting everyone’s attention; deservedly so!

We love the way that1960chick tells the story of ‘Naija Pop Culture’, profiling the good, bad and ugly in her own words and style. In a place where almost all Nigerian bloggers are stereotypical, she truly stands out.
