He named his band Ozzidi after a renowned Ijaw river god, but to Okosun the meaning was \"there is a message\". His surname is sometimes spelled Okosuns and his first name Sunny. He was one of the leading Nigerian musicians from the late 1970s to mid-1980s. Okosun's brand of African pop music, Ozzidi, is a synthesis of Afro-beat, reggae and funk music. From 1977, he became known for protest songs about Pan-Africanism, freedom and a few other social and political issues affecting Africans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52793780830489,"sku":"M-2397","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-sonny_okosuns_ozziddi-3rd_world.jpg?v=1783554745","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/m-2397","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
