Davido's strength lies in  - Beat and of course his flamboyance. Also his ability to sing songs of new topics.
Wizkid - Harmony and Melody. Then money and girl bodey
Olamide - Melody and connection to the street.
2Face - Lyrics (this is why he is a legend)
What makes a song more commercial is the story and personality built around the song and of course proper promotion.

Many songs die as soon as the musicians stop singing. Few songs remain even if the musician dies. Have you ever thought... Something must be the cause?

The most powerful tool is the Lyrics.
