Bola Johnson (1947–2014) was a Nigerian musician, bandleader, and trumpeter known for his dynamic blend of highlife, Afrobeat, and traditional Yoruba rhythms. Emerging in Lagos during the vibrant musical explosion of the 1960s and 1970s, Johnson brought infectious energy and witty storytelling to his performances. Celebrated for his work with the Easy Life Top Beats and his humorous “Wazobia” radio persona, he bridged entertainment and social commentary with flair. His recordings remain a spirited reflection of Nigeria’s golden age of dance music.
