Naija Life has two music stations, and both play real songs. Naija Stream plays Afrobeats by real artists. My Music plays songs you add from your own phone. The music is the game's only background sound, so you hear your song, not traffic noise.
Naija Stream
- Plays the Afro Beat chart from Audius, a free music platform where independent artists upload their own songs.
- Every song is credited. Tap the artist's name to open their Audius page.
- Not feeling a song? Skip it.
- The first time you sign in on a new install, Naija Stream starts by itself so you know it is there. Switch it off and it stays off.
My Music
- Add songs from your phone: MP3, M4A, AAC or WAV.
- Your songs stay on your phone. Nothing is uploaded, and other players do not hear them.
- Remove a song from the list whenever you like.
- My Music works in the iPhone and Android apps. The browser version has Naija Stream only.
Where to find the radio
Your home has a radio: the transistor radio in a small flat, or party speakers in a bigger home. Open the music player from the home screen to pick a station. In the city, Naija Radio House in Ikeja has a studio wall with the same two stations.
