Hilarious! Actor James Omokwe trashes 'garbage music' in Nigeria
I like Wizkid and I think he's one the best musical talents we have in Nigeria. But actor James Omokwe, best known as Kenny of popular TV series Shallow Waters doesn't appreciate Wizkid's new song 'In My bed'. The way he analyzed it on his Facebook page a few days ago is hilarious. Start from above and continue after the cut and tell us if you agree with him...
a.k.a EDWIN CHINEDU AZUBUKO said... . Oga if yu no like the songs then go kill urself bcos even obama still listens to lil waynes music. trust me, yu are not making sense infact yu are pointless.. *Now playing “HOLLA AT UR BOY”* *GLO BRING 3G TO KONTAGORA* . . ***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Not a fan of whizkid, but common james,cut whizkid some slack.. You also speak ill of whizkid cos other people did? Mind your acting business sir..its become too redundant to throw shades at whizkid all the time..next!!!
Seriously,when I listen to classical tune while driving, I can't help but wonder why we can't keep good songs on track. Truth be told, these stupid lyrics got catchy tones. Thumbs up to the producers. Much luv to 2baba.
First real brother that's saying the truth!!All these artistes and the crap lyrics they churn out.And the kids of nowadays can't write straight english.
Looooool, i just listen to the beat most time and ignore d horrible lyrics, and i only listen to most Nigerian music during my "razz moments" ...lets ban garbage music plz!!yes,people wana dance,but does it jistify such lame lyrics?
Trash Music ... but retards like wizkid and the other bunch of Nigerian retards singing song that makes absolutely no sense wont agree that they are all retarded and all you who will attack actor james omokwe - yall are retarded tooo ..
Lol. .True sha..Wiz kid used to have some cool lyrics/songso., but I think now it's all gone..Naija music is now mostly all about the beats at d moment..So who care about d lyrics..Don't think dey care as long as dey get d muller..
you re ryt, i dnt hate wizkid o but he sings stupid songs diz days nd 'in my bed' is d dumbest ting hav heard 4rm him lately, music dat lacks coordination, i tink 9jerian artiste are fast runnin out of lyrics,jes lyk d crap lynxxx sang lateli nd i used 2 hype him a lot. its a sad ting
I think the dude is right though,aside the content or whatever message wizkid tried to pass in the song,he keeps repeating the same line through from the beginning to the end of his songs....no.lyrical content.
Sharap joor,even d almighty tuface dey sing trash,so everyone sings trash,beyonce, I woke up like this,then nxt is chidi (feminist) then her diamond,flawless,now tell me how that make sense,we are in nonsense world,cos nonsense now brings money,its either u deal with that or u keep wondering for d rest of ur life.
whaooo this guy is crazy ooo ... he analyzed the song from the first verse to the last... well i support him on this course.. imagine my baby doin her homework, nd writing bad, badder, baddest instead of bad, worse, worst.. thanx to E.M.E GROUP
ROFL... Best post I've read in a long time. While I don't agree on banning Wiz Kid and co (I don't think he's serious about that anyway), I agree that Nigeria's music industry is saturated with BS, mediocrity and half baked music. Most of the artists steal their beats and tunes from foreign artists, they also steal their lyrics but think people wouldn't know since they end up translating the lyrics into Yoruba, Pidgin and so on. Then again, how can one expect quality music from a country that is practically in ruins? If we want to uplift Nigeria, we have to start by giving our people quality education, get religious fanatics and career politicians out of office (education is the key to doing that), get jungle justice out of our country (again, education is the key) and the list goes on. The more educated a nation is, the more successful the country and its people will be.
God!!! This guy is so on point. I agree with him abeg... The thread that got me was where Fashola's name was mentioned... Pls what exactly is his name doing there??? That's why tuface will always remain †ђξ legendary one.. Check most of his music..if not all sef..it always has meaning.. Abeg Oga, loud this your point, let those who have ears hear... # pepus4xhard@yahoo.com
Seriously guy...ur right... biko nigeria music has gotten worse! Lol..I loved d part about having a 'wiz kid protege trying to get into office'..can u imagine what it will actually look like?
Hehehehe very funny analysis. Seriously, I share part of his thoughts. Especially about the American hip hop song. It's so dead with no creativity. Whenever I listen to The Rich Gang and their ilks, I always be like, "na wetin Yankee songs don turn be dis?" Talking about our kids being dumb, there's a study which says kids who have Lil Wayne as their role model are dumber than kids of other role models. Wonder what kids who's role model is Wizkid (a wrong spelling of whiz-kid but accepted in music under the cover of artistry) would turn out to be.
***Had to proof read to make sure all my words are spelt correctly. Effect of "garbage music", hehehehe***
These lines gave me a rib cracking orgy. 1.Fashola...(what is Fashola doing in this song? is he in the bed? Or is he the father of the girl that whizkid is singing about?) 2.ohhhh blessing follow me everywhere I go i'm serving a living God (REALLY!!! Youdonminit) I thought we were talking about saraki and the girl that has to be in your bed. True talk, i agree with him.But the reality is that,tis what sells in the industry now.
Bro I second you. People like Linda are bringing them into limelight though. Likewise all those thieves in power, they use money meant for all and sundry to buy planes, yet we hail them.
Its a matter of time, "garbage music" will find its level. Fight it head on, you become "enemy of progress". Just allow time to "deal with it". When the market is saturated with same sound, we will begin to look for differentiating factors.
Watch people come on here and defend this trash. The Naija youth are sadly disadvantaged. They do not know music. Nothing wrong with party music if that's your thing. But Wizkid usually sings crap. Alongside the rest of those entertainers.
Hahaha funny you,don't mind musician of these days they just sing anything that enters their month and make money out of it because people are no more interested in good music but fashion
I concur with James Omokwe but unfortunately,those are the kind of music most Nigerians enjoy listening to.useless music that has no useful meaning or message to pass accross.
I support you 100% music is no longer music, everyone wants to sing about boobies,waist,butt. they don't inspire anyone anymore. If our generation is singing so much crap now, i wonder what the future one's will sing about.
was he paid to bring him down or wants to get cheap popularity or just writing for the sake of doing so?he should listen to top ten Nigerian Artiste (musician) and listen to lyrics of about 16 songs or thereabout on their most current album.For how many years has he been familiar with this caveat "PARENTAL ADVISORY EXPLICIT CONTENT".What did he listen to while growing? Hip Hop straight from stars from US I guess which has more terrible content...
This is truly hilarious. I can't deal with sour music, I second his suggestion. And i cimplained about this same song over the weekend. Lin pls let's start it from here. People vote awful songs in, with reasonable reasons, and then we vote worst 5. We can do this every month, these artists need to bring the real thing to the table or bounce. You can't sing crap and get millions while others work extra hard to attain that height. Operation #singrightorbounce
Shut up Guy Why wizkid? Why do u mention wizkid alone... What about Olamide(dirty verses), timaya(butty chorus), p-square(dirty songs), D'banj & co. Stop being hypocrite
As in seriously dis guy is so on point.most naija artist dont hv talent nd dont make sense.nd d truth is most nigerians jst nod their heads to d beats instead of listening to d lyrics..u tink wizkid is bad?come to ph and listen to d kinds of senseless songs they make.
Lols, You're on point man about the song. I was listening to it last night and wondering the same thing. But about the part of banning it, well i don't really second that cos there this is a free world and everyone is free to sing whatever they like. It's better to educate your kids on how irrelevant the song and get them to listen to better songs. Peace!
In as much as your post made sense, I think you should also learnt by constructing your tenses very well before coming out to diss someone. Go back to your post and change the ban to BANNED.......shaken a
Jobless man,he better face his own business...what make sense in Nigeria nowadays?instead of him to write how to remove GEJ from office he is busy talking about young man that is trying to survive..Even in american most of their songs doesnt make sense nowadays.........what is the meaning of anaconda by nikki minaj?m
In as much as your post made sense, I think you should also learnt by constructing your tenses very well before coming out to diss someone. Go back to your post and change the ban to BANNED.......shikena
The truth is lyrically our artiste or at least most of them are lazy, as you can see from the article. But the truth is here in Nigeria, we don't listen (often times) to lyrics but to the beat of a song! That is how the Nigerian artiste has positioned their music! Take away the beat from some of these guys and you have garbage! Ice Prince is another proponent of garbage music.
God bless you James Omokwe.....for this scintillating analysis.......this is just a tip of the garbage music that is now every household anthem now.....come tomorrow....you will hear that the music is nominated for one award or the other.....can you imagine such music without definite pattern or message......for that matter.....may God save us.........from the dirty things call music....now in Naija.....
Nonsense! Mr man I can see dat u hv so much time in dat case go and chop shit!!! Wizkid is making his money and u ar here talking bull shit, bia linda next gist plsss!
james you are very right. The mumu whiz kid fans will come here to display their senselessness now just watch and see. And this isnt limited to whiz kid.....90% of the songs made in nigeria today make no sense and have no meaning. Just a few. REAL TALK
Hi Linda, I wrote a review about this song months back http://www.letoyinspeak.com/2014/10/wizkid.html
I sort of agree with him on this song...it was a miss for him and its not just a wizkid porblem...ts most Nigerian artist, they dont put time to their work once they think they are at the peak of their time/career. Its not because they are not good, Wizkid is darn good but lost priority Most of us Nigerians have 'the good beat' and 'love him/her' syndrome ( we love the song because of the beats and the artist).
Naija celebs including you Linda forgets that you stand for us, we all have voices but yours is heard first before ours...so whatever you do, there are millions of die hard fans that emulate everything u do...positively and negatively.
You couldn't have said it any better...The Nigerian society has no moral value anymore....Parents have failed the society woefully...i fear for the society in which my kids and grandchildren will live...
I'm a huge Wiz fan, but that 'In my bed' song is the wackiest BS I've ever heard. I can't believe I waited 3 yrs for that wack Ayo album, asides from the earlier released singles and 'Ojuelegba & Mummy mi', everything else on there is scraps. Wiz, please redeem yourself with the mixtape. I beg of you.
I totally agree with this guy and I'm sick and tired of these stupid songs on airwaves without lyrics and people dancing insanely to stupid wordings of this shitty songs.
Picking out only wizkid tells me something here bcos gabage music is been in 9ja since psquare did 'do me i do u and danger' Everytin u play on radio and tv dis days is pangolo music so get a life. I know u picked wizzy bcos of his lifestyle, u call it arrogance but i call it confidence. I am not advocating for pangolo music but its been here for a long time and wizzy didnt start it. and i av grown with it that if i need moral music, i listen to gospel but i need jamming song that makes me go gaga in d club. So mr. James Omokwe, or whatever u call urself go to d church, u will find moral music. I know dis will give u recognition and wen u finally lands in money don't forget that wizzy got u there. Mofo tryn to act saint. #teamwizzy, teamdavido, teamdbanj, teamflavor, team2face, teamolamide, teamphyno teamchidima encourage dis guys not pull them down. You went too far boy
Well, most Nigerian music doesn't make sense tho, jst few... So picking out only "Wiz-kid"s song to criticize makes me feel you're hating on him. D decision is fine. Nowadays, i don't think pple care about d lyrics of a song anymore, we jst dance along... *Flora*
Kudos to that observation....finally someone spoke up against garbage music that most Nigeria musician millionaire....its not only Wizkid I tell you there many more...its not their fault Nigerians like cheap things
I am so in support of this movenment. Its time to stop all this artist from singing rubbish with lyrics that does not follow on top of noisy beats. They should take lessons from people like 2face, Neyo, Rkelly etc..
My brother, i have long stopped listening to the likes of Wiz kid. Just wait till he replies and you will know the extent of his uselessness (if there is a word like that) to the young generation. what happened to the motivational, educative and informative part of music? Necked girls and useless lyrical content..... Who do you blame? The useless Multinational companies that choose these computer beat artists as ambassadors.
Oh my God...This is hilarious and true...the song has no meaning what so ever.....I really miss the days of meaningful songs with wonderful lyrics....not just anything we can dance to
Unknown actor...y don't u face ur 30min drama in silence rada dan seeking for attention.its obvious u have less scripts to rehearse.u go soon turn to Mr Etcetera wey leave music dey discuss life....na wa ooooo...smh
If you're going to criticize other people's diction, it's important for yours to be accurate. The first line is bad English; then he proceeds to pontificate. I suggest he does something useful; instead of criticizing those who do.
Honestly, am a big wiz kid fan...but i concur with him...wen i heard the song for the first tym i was like dis is Dumb, crap, disjointed...just litened to mavin's "Adaobi" to get over it.
The album has its saving graces. "Joy" has great lyrics about his mom encouraging him to pursue his dreams. "Ojuelegba's" about his hometown and is sweet, with a touch of jazz, an instant classic on the world music circuit if you ask me. He's got other quality songs on the album. Lol, the boy loves his mama. He doesn't go wrong on songs about her.
Leave Whizkid alone o,it isn't the content that matters anymore but the tone of the song people want to whine away there stress..Sad you didn't praise him when he sang mummy mi o mummy mi ojuelgba omo jaiye jaiye and other good songs na your rotten mouth you wan use small market
abeg file be #blessing follow me anywhere i go cos i serve a living God
Whats the hate bro!!!!!! we all listen to jollof music, who buys or listen to real lyrics.. i can bet this dude does not have a song of Yung6ix, Mode Nine, WAJE, Asa or even tuface's recent album. Please we should really understand that conscious music with deep lyrical contents are not really appreciated in Nigeria cos we all bump to the beat. Nigeria is too hard and tough to start cracking your head for a deep lyrical music. Skelewu, limpopo In my bed etc. are lyrically wack but they are hit songs and Iyawo me by Timi Dakolo, always on my mind by Nosa, Ordinary people by Cohbams , Body by Black Magic to name a few with good lyrical content but did not achieve the success of these wack lyrical songs.
The fact is simple, we appreciate easy song without deep content..Nigerians jst wanna dance..and if i were a musician, i will simply give u wat u wnt....
So oga, if u want lyrical music, Buy all the albums of Enya....
The 3 solos don't even correlate,he has a very good point tho...smh for Nigerian singers,they just write without the right inspiration,they get inspiration from drinking and drugs...we really need to ban rubbish songs
Lol he's right tho. But imo it ain't totally wizkid's (davido's e.t.c) fault. It's the fault of those well meaning artists with positive intentions who have refused to step up to the mark. Most of the so called positive artists have refused to shoot quality videos that can be considered state-of-the-art. The music industry is getting more competitive as the day goes by. You can't shoot a 1 million naira video and expect to get a buzz just because your music has a "positive message. If people like wizkid, davido and co spend nothing less than 10 million naira on most of their videos, why can't the so-called positive musicians do same? Or even more? Biko, If you hate something, do something about it. Name dropping wizkid will not change anything. My two cents!
When the whites sing love songs,you feel it cos they write from the bottom of their hearts, they write how they feel...Nigerians just write love songs based on boobs and what they call ukwu...everything is based on looks and assets.
Judging by the lyrics, sm1 shud write his songs biko. And like our movies, i feel a major issue is we lack depth... proper dialogue, some of the conversations are absurd. Who is writing these scripts biko nu
One stupid 2kobo brain will come here now to say.."tell him to take several seats and mind his own business" or "he's hating". Well...bird of a feather will always flock together!
Please let us promote good art and songs. Enough of all this "feel good" song that makes no sense! That includes your famous dorobucci btw

Pls explain the lyrics... or the song. I'm sure he's trying to send a message because that's what music is... or isn't it? Just not sure what that is in this song.
I haven't heard the song,but from what I see here I cannot but agree with the guy,wizkid might have had some really nice songs...but this one,if the lyrics I see here os anything to go by...the whole switch of theme...from sex with a girl,to politicians,to God...its crazy mehn...and right now I dont care about the beat of the song,if I listen to it and I hear this lyrics for real,I'll never promote the song as a fan.
Good criticism is a good thing. Its the only way I artists and industry will grow. Abi u want us to remain where we are? If we continue to churn out nonsense pple we laugh at us.
I tots agree with him. I thought same thing when I saw the video. I was like Wetin consine God for this matter and that was the same time they were showing butt naked girls. And I also noticed Naija music sha, whether they are singing about population control, poverty, politics or even ozone layer, girls must dance naked. Why? I go join this campaign wella.
Bishop dammy u are a fraudster..commenting with the same ip address with fake names just so linda will assume people know u..yes we know u, but sir, u fake and u don't deserve the money.
Someone is stating the obvious and you kids are like " GTFOH" I dont know why kids of these days cant handle the simple damn truth ... Because a song is groovy means the lyrics should be stupid and dumb ..yall Stupid .
@Nnenne George and the likes of you asking who the guy is, just tells me this article is not great for your timid minds. personally i don't know him and never heard of him but damn he spoke my mind, and i'll like to know him.

I think our music industry has grown to the point where we need to produce music that make sense. Enough with d 1 track wonder. You may say its what the pple like. But when the "pple" hear or listen to quality music they will also recognise. N/B When pple resort to abuse; it is the lowest form of wit. its bcos they hv lost all sense of reason and hv nothing tangible to say. It shud be ignored
Very hilarious actually he is right. In my opinion chizzy wasted hez beats on whiz man(that old boy aint a kid)..that sonq is awfully stupid..#musically away
its funny but this is the sad reality that stares us all in our face. The rate at which this current genration is getting interested and addicted to frivolous things/activities is appauling! we are loosing touch of the things that actually matterand are becoming dillusional and I hear we are the future leaders. cm'n u dont become a leader over night! we need to rise up to the challenge and give values to what is neccessary. we should major on the major and minor on the minor.
Nnenne your really dumb, no offence but its d truth. So groove is all there's to life. If you had any brain in your head u would know he's making sense. Music is a strong means of education and communication. Kids listen to it and try to do wht they learnt from it. So it does matter.
is this the kind of songs that will bring Nigerians Grammy? its like wizkid smoked weeds and drank ogogoro the night he wrote this song, weed was giving him one inspiration while ogogro gave him another, he couldn't help but to mix the two inpirations, Good beats, Trash song! ff me @Tweetest_boi
Linda don't give us dat I like Wizkid crap,u always publicise negative tins abt him, soo wetin Dorobucci, Eminado,Kukerre means?85% of naijaa music dooest av substance n u know it yet na only Wizkid u pick out

Hilarious indeed..... #Doro Classy#
The lyrics of a song makes the song.
His lyrics may be meaningless but doesn't till change the fact that Wizkid is talented

Hehehehe very funny analysis. Seriously, I share part of his thoughts. Especially about the American hip hop song. It's so dead with no creativity. Whenever I listen to The Rich Gang and their ilks, I always be like, "na wetin Yankee songs don turn be dis?"
Talking about our kids being dumb, there's a study which says kids who have Lil Wayne as their role model are dumber than kids of other role models.
Wonder what kids who's role model is Wizkid (a wrong spelling of whiz-kid but accepted in music under the cover of artistry) would turn out to be.
***Had to proof read to make sure all my words are spelt correctly. Effect of "garbage music", hehehehe***

Same here my point exactly! dumbest song and album ever!
I agree with this man ehn. Lol
Bro I second you. People like Linda are bringing them into limelight though. Likewise all those thieves in power, they use money meant for all and sundry to buy planes, yet we hail them.
Lolzzzz. Linda best musical talent indeed. When ur talent speaks rubbish,my dear that's no longer talent. #cluelessnaijalyricsoftoday
Its a matter of time, "garbage music" will find its level.
Fight it head on, you become "enemy of progress". Just allow time to "deal with it". When the market is saturated with same sound, we will begin to look for differentiating factors.
Watch people come on here and defend this trash. The Naija youth are sadly disadvantaged. They do not know music. Nothing wrong with party music if that's your thing. But Wizkid usually sings crap. Alongside the rest of those entertainers.
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha funny you,don't mind musician of these days they just sing anything that enters their month and make money out of it because people are no more interested in good music but fashion
I concur with James Omokwe but unfortunately,those are the kind of music most Nigerians enjoy listening to.useless music that has no useful meaning or message to pass accross.
I support you 100% music is no longer music, everyone wants to sing about boobies,waist,butt. they don't inspire anyone anymore. If our generation is singing so much crap now, i wonder what the future one's will sing about.
Lol..hilarious indeed...I can't stop laughn..
So hilarious, but true. Try D'ja's lyrics in the song Adaobi. All she said was formula this formula that like a dumb blonde sheesh!!! I can't deal
Wow Hahahahaha...................dis is hilarious. I love dis guy already, am in support of the ban.
i agree totally, been wondering about the song myself, garbage music errywhere in nigeria
was he paid to bring him down or wants to get cheap popularity or just writing for the sake of doing so?he should listen to top ten Nigerian Artiste (musician) and listen to lyrics of about 16 songs or thereabout on their most current album.For how many years has he been familiar with this caveat "PARENTAL ADVISORY EXPLICIT CONTENT".What did he listen to while growing? Hip Hop straight from stars from US I guess which has more terrible content...
This is truly hilarious. I can't deal with sour music, I second his suggestion. And i cimplained about this same song over the weekend. Lin pls let's start it from here. People vote awful songs in, with reasonable reasons, and then we vote worst 5. We can do this every month, these artists need to bring the real thing to the table or bounce. You can't sing crap and get millions while others work extra hard to attain that height. Operation #singrightorbounce
Now that is a serious issues raised there.
I so agree with this guy.. the=at particular song is just confusing. S/O to Asa, Brymo and 2Baba
Oga James no b by force to hear the song na? u don forget say u dey d industry...
He is actually right.. Stupid lyrics
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA just can't stop laughing we really need GOD'S intervention in Nigeria
Shut up Guy
Why wizkid?
Why do u mention wizkid alone...
What about Olamide(dirty verses), timaya(butty chorus), p-square(dirty songs), D'banj & co.
Stop being hypocrite

As in seriously dis guy is so on point.most naija artist dont hv talent nd dont make sense.nd d truth is most nigerians jst nod their heads to d beats instead of listening to d lyrics..u tink wizkid is bad?come to ph and listen to d kinds of senseless songs they make.
Wizkid joy album has nuffin in it...jst crap all d way
This guys really killed it.... reasoning with this guy... not #hating.. am a die hard fan of #wiz.. #haters can go to hell
Ur so right
Lols, You're on point man about the song. I was listening to it last night and wondering the same thing. But about the part of banning it, well i don't really second that cos there this is a free world and everyone is free to sing whatever they like. It's better to educate your kids on how irrelevant the song and get them to listen to better songs. Peace!
Laff don take my soul.....
i agree with this dude.... not hating.. but we need to really put an end to this..
In as much as your post made sense, I think you should also learnt by constructing your tenses very well before coming out to diss someone. Go back to your post and change the ban to BANNED.......shaken a
so true the song does not make any sense!
Jobless man,he better face his own business...what make sense in Nigeria nowadays?instead of him to write how to remove GEJ from office he is busy talking about young man that is trying to survive..Even in american most of their songs doesnt make sense nowadays.........what is the meaning of anaconda by nikki minaj?m
In as much as your post made sense, I think you should also learnt by constructing your tenses very well before coming out to diss someone. Go back to your post and change the ban to BANNED.......shikena
I don't think it is write to ban the songs but criticise it so badly that these artiste will think twice when writing their lyrics
Na him sabi d music sweet die lol
The truth is lyrically our artiste or at least most of them are lazy, as you can see from the article. But the truth is here in Nigeria, we don't listen (often times) to lyrics but to the beat of a song! That is how the Nigerian artiste has positioned their music! Take away the beat from some of these guys and you have garbage! Ice Prince is another proponent of garbage music.
Lol! In regards to every form of good music this is absolute nonsense though! But the Jam make sense sha! Dancing***
God bless you James Omokwe.....for this scintillating analysis.......this is just a tip of the garbage music that is now every household anthem now.....come tomorrow....you will hear that the music is nominated for one award or the other.....can you imagine such music without definite pattern or message......for that matter.....may God save us.........from the dirty things call music....now in Naija.....
Nonsense! Mr man I can see dat u hv so much time in dat case go and chop shit!!! Wizkid is making his money and u ar here talking bull shit, bia linda next gist plsss!
the song does not make any sense to me!
oga go fry saliva jare
i af die
i af die
james you are very right. The mumu whiz kid fans will come here to display their senselessness now just watch and see. And this isnt limited to whiz kid.....90% of the songs made in nigeria today make no sense and have no meaning. Just a few. REAL TALK
my brother na true talk! These songs without meanings shud be banned absolutely!... Thay just make no SENCE at all.
Lol James.. OYO lo wa..
Hi Linda, I wrote a review about this song months back
http://www.letoyinspeak.com/2014/10/wizkid.html
I sort of agree with him on this song...it was a miss for him and its not just a wizkid porblem...ts most Nigerian artist, they dont put time to their work once they think they are at the peak of their time/career. Its not because they are not good, Wizkid is darn good but lost priority
Most of us Nigerians have 'the good beat' and 'love him/her' syndrome ( we love the song because of the beats and the artist).
Naija celebs including you Linda forgets that you stand for us, we all have voices but yours is heard first before ours...so whatever you do, there are millions of die hard fans that emulate everything u do...positively and negatively.
www.letoyinspeak.com
Guy u are soo right;I never liked WizKids.his songs have no meaning
My thoughts. Exactly !
Just passing. PLS CHECK OUT MY PAGE ON IG@onestopstorefashion
Bro, your opinion is not paying his bills..
Gbam.
Yes,lets ban it
He is singing trash...
on point man. to be honest, i've stopped listening to Nigerian garbage music a long time ago. i kinda tink dat it reduces someones IQ
You couldn't have said it any better...The Nigerian society has no moral value anymore....Parents have failed the society woefully...i fear for the society in which my kids and grandchildren will live...
I'm a huge Wiz fan, but that 'In my bed' song is the wackiest BS I've ever heard. I can't believe I waited 3 yrs for that wack Ayo album, asides from the earlier released singles and 'Ojuelegba & Mummy mi', everything else on there is scraps. Wiz, please redeem yourself with the mixtape. I beg of you.
Yours Sincerely,
A pissed-off fan
Am wit u broda
I totally agree with this guy and I'm sick and tired of these stupid songs on airwaves without lyrics and people dancing insanely to stupid wordings of this shitty songs.
Picking out only wizkid tells me something here bcos gabage music is been in 9ja since psquare did 'do me i do u and danger'
Everytin u play on radio and tv dis days is pangolo music so get a life.
I know u picked wizzy bcos of his lifestyle, u call it arrogance but i call it confidence.
I am not advocating for pangolo music but its been here for a long time and wizzy didnt start it. and i av grown with it that if i need moral music, i listen to gospel but i need jamming song that makes me go gaga in d club.
So mr. James Omokwe, or whatever u call urself go to d church, u will find moral music. I know dis will give u recognition and wen u finally lands in money don't forget that wizzy got u there. Mofo tryn to act saint. #teamwizzy, teamdavido, teamdbanj, teamflavor, team2face, teamolamide, teamphyno teamchidima
encourage dis guys not pull them down. You went too far boy
That's what happens when you imagine what happened in the club last night and head to the studio boot with inspiration from that! SMH
Nigerian artists...smh
Am on
Nikka get a life!...wonder what you where doing listening to the song in the first place.
getab@rocketmail.com
LOL...I agree with him.. The song doesn't have a meaning..
coward, show us one significant thing you have done in your life before talking trash about someone else work.
To be honest he is making sense...most Nigeria music have poor and corrupt lyrics and it sad. #gift
I sweardown Linda dat song is one of the dumbest tracks I've hrd in a while... Kai!
Well, most Nigerian music doesn't make sense tho, jst few... So picking out only "Wiz-kid"s song to criticize makes me feel you're hating on him. D decision is fine. Nowadays, i don't think pple care about d lyrics of a song anymore, we jst dance along... *Flora*
Kudos to that observation....finally someone spoke up against garbage music that most Nigeria musician millionaire....its not only Wizkid I tell you there many more...its not their fault Nigerians like cheap things
Hahaha! I was laughing so hard I was almost crying. He is right
I am so in support of this movenment. Its time to stop all this artist from singing rubbish with lyrics that does not follow on top of noisy beats. They should take lessons from people like 2face, Neyo, Rkelly etc..
9ce!!! He's right though.!
Lmao
why u dey vex bro?
My brother, i have long stopped listening to the likes of Wiz kid. Just wait till he replies and you will know the extent of his uselessness (if there is a word like that) to the young generation.
what happened to the motivational, educative and informative part of music? Necked girls and useless lyrical content.....
Who do you blame? The useless Multinational companies that choose these computer beat artists as ambassadors.
Oh my God...This is hilarious and true...the song has no meaning what so ever.....I really miss the days of meaningful songs with wonderful lyrics....not just anything we can dance to
Lolz! Very funny bt what he said made a lot of sense. D song has no meaning @ all
Unknown actor...y don't u face ur 30min drama in silence rada dan seeking for attention.its obvious u have less scripts to rehearse.u go soon turn to Mr Etcetera wey leave music dey discuss life....na wa ooooo...smh
That's so true.....so many songs now with no lyrics
To be honest, this man is right. Some wizzy songs is crap. richard.yinka190@gmail.com
U hit the nail on d head #gbam
Buh hez a really funny guy oh #lmao
#Commenting thru Airtel 4G LTE
My brother I'm tired of fighting against it o. No mind them. Especially dat timaya guy
I totally agree with him. Sometimes, I just wonder "what were they thinking".
LOOOL. ROTFL
Lol... I just can't abeg. *sad face*
u no like d song but u knw all d lyrics, u must be a big fool by d way Linda who be dis old bros?
Lmaooooooooo!!!! So true. Lol! Wizkid should go and employ a song writer. He has nothing to writer no more. 😃
Who's James shallow?
If you're going to criticize other people's diction, it's important for yours to be accurate. The first line is bad English; then he proceeds to pontificate. I suggest he does something useful; instead of criticizing those who do.
Honestly, am a big wiz kid fan...but i concur with him...wen i heard the song for the first tym i was like dis is Dumb, crap, disjointed...just litened to mavin's "Adaobi" to get over it.
Now this song is going to go real viral. Wizkid need to appreciate this free publicity
I'm totally in for this. I agree 100%
I swear' his so ryt! Gosh dat song rilly got me pissed! Even tho' I love Wiz Kid!
Most songs don't make any sense. If we had to go by the lyrics of every song, then, we'll ban hundred of thousands!
The beat & rhythm is what most people like / are interested in.
Wizzy is cool. I like him..Please cut him some slack...
The album has its saving graces. "Joy" has great lyrics about his mom encouraging him to pursue his dreams. "Ojuelegba's" about his hometown and is sweet, with a touch of jazz, an instant classic on the world music circuit if you ask me. He's got other quality songs on the album. Lol, the boy loves his mama. He doesn't go wrong on songs about her.
Linda, let him start with his English first..
Leave Whizkid alone o,it isn't the content that matters anymore but the tone of the song people want to whine away there stress..Sad you didn't praise him when he sang
mummy mi o mummy mi
ojuelgba
omo jaiye jaiye
and other good songs na your rotten mouth you wan use small market
abeg file be
#blessing follow me anywhere i go cos i serve a living God
Lmfaooooooo!!!!
Wizkid just got served...
I wonder why anyone should look up to whizkid for his or child`s elementary English,I thought thats why we have "brighter grammer"
Whats the hate bro!!!!!! we all listen to jollof music, who buys or listen to real lyrics.. i can bet this dude does not have a song of Yung6ix, Mode Nine, WAJE, Asa or even tuface's recent album. Please we should really understand that conscious music with deep lyrical contents are not really appreciated in Nigeria cos we all bump to the beat. Nigeria is too hard and tough to start cracking your head for a deep lyrical music. Skelewu, limpopo In my bed etc. are lyrically wack but they are hit songs and Iyawo me by Timi Dakolo, always on my mind by Nosa, Ordinary people by Cohbams , Body by Black Magic to name a few with good lyrical content but did not achieve the success of these wack lyrical songs.
The fact is simple, we appreciate easy song without deep content..Nigerians jst wanna dance..and if i were a musician, i will simply give u wat u wnt....
So oga, if u want lyrical music, Buy all the albums of Enya....
The 3 solos don't even correlate,he has a very good point tho...smh for Nigerian singers,they just write without the right inspiration,they get inspiration from drinking and drugs...we really need to ban rubbish songs
Lol he's right tho. But imo it ain't totally wizkid's (davido's e.t.c) fault. It's the fault of those well meaning artists with positive intentions who have refused to step up to the mark. Most of the so called positive artists have refused to shoot quality videos that can be considered state-of-the-art. The music industry is getting more competitive as the day goes by. You can't shoot a 1 million naira video and expect to get a buzz just because your music has a "positive message. If people like wizkid, davido and co spend nothing less than 10 million naira on most of their videos, why can't the so-called positive musicians do same? Or even more? Biko, If you hate something, do something about it. Name dropping wizkid will not change anything.
My two cents!
~BADOO OF COVENTRY
Epic!!!!!! LMAO This is sadly the truth ....... Choi
When the whites sing love songs,you feel it cos they write from the bottom of their hearts, they write how they feel...Nigerians just write love songs based on boobs and what they call ukwu...everything is based on looks and assets.
100% correct. He said it all.
Judging by the lyrics, sm1 shud write his songs biko.
And like our movies, i feel a major issue is we lack depth... proper dialogue, some of the conversations are absurd. Who is writing these scripts biko nu
One stupid 2kobo brain will come here now to say.."tell him to take several seats and mind his own business" or "he's hating". Well...bird of a feather will always flock together!
Please let us promote good art and songs. Enough of all this "feel good" song that makes no sense! That includes your famous dorobucci btw
I agree with him too, I tot the song was very silly also
How exams?

Lmaoooooo d day i heard dis song i was just so confused! Sex and God blessing and fashola smh. I tell u its just beats dat sell
I've been saying this
But what d heck pple like what dey like
D song is just off point
But den again wizkid has always been off point
Buhaaahahahahahaha....lolz
Pls explain the lyrics... or the song. I'm sure he's trying to send a message because that's what music is... or isn't it?
Just not sure what that is in this song.
Linda ele ni o........rotf, free wizkid joor it's 9ja pattern, lng as we can shake body, den d jam badtt!!
I haven't heard the song,but from what I see here I cannot but agree with the guy,wizkid might have had some really nice songs...but this one,if the lyrics I see here os anything to go by...the whole switch of theme...from sex with a girl,to politicians,to God...its crazy mehn...and right now I dont care about the beat of the song,if I listen to it and I hear this lyrics for real,I'll never promote the song as a fan.
Good criticism is a good thing. Its the only way I artists and industry will grow. Abi u want us to remain where we are?
If we continue to churn out nonsense pple we laugh at us.
So freaking right.good analysis
I tots agree with him. I thought same thing when I saw the video. I was like Wetin consine God for this matter and that was the same time they were showing butt naked girls. And I also noticed Naija music sha, whether they are singing about population control, poverty, politics or even ozone layer, girls must dance naked. Why? I go join this campaign wella.
Bishop dammy u are a fraudster..commenting with the same ip address with fake names just so linda will assume people know u..yes we know u, but sir, u fake and u don't deserve the money.
Someone is stating the obvious and you kids are like " GTFOH" I dont know why kids of these days cant handle the simple damn truth ...
Because a song is groovy means the lyrics should be stupid and dumb ..yall Stupid .
If you don't understand the story Beyonce was telling thru her album then I think you only understand nollywood asaba movies
Haters are goin to hate, #Forsure... I'm sure wizzy is going to buy his whole generation with what this guy called shiitty songs.. #Starboy #Eleniyan
@Nnenne George and the likes of you asking who the guy is, just tells me this article is not great for your timid minds. personally i don't know him and never heard of him but damn he spoke my mind, and i'll like to know him.
It's your carefree type that's ruining this country. What a shame.
Linda he's not just an actor, he's also a writer and director. Didn't you hear about "Awakening?"
You are so sly and full of shit. No wonder you are not married yet. If you like swallow my comental. Anu mpam!
@Nnenne George and the likes of you asking who the guy is, just tells me this article is not great for your timid minds. personally i don't know him and never heard of him but damn he spoke my mind, and i'll like to know him.
I think our music industry has grown to the point where we need to produce music that make sense. Enough with d 1 track wonder. You may say its what the pple like. But when the "pple" hear or listen to quality music they will also recognise.
N/B
When pple resort to abuse; it is the lowest form of wit. its bcos they hv lost all sense of reason and hv nothing tangible to say. It shud be ignored
Very hilarious actually he is right. In my opinion chizzy wasted hez beats on whiz man(that old boy aint a kid)..that sonq is awfully stupid..#musically away
its funny but this is the sad reality that stares us all in our face. The rate at which this current genration is getting interested and addicted to frivolous things/activities is appauling! we are loosing touch of the things that actually matterand are becoming dillusional and I hear we are the future leaders. cm'n u dont become a leader over night! we need to rise up to the challenge and give values to what is neccessary. we should major on the major and minor on the minor.
I don't care if his lyrics is lame, i love Wizkid and his music.
Hahaha...loved the part where he said "youdontminit"
Nnenne your really dumb, no offence but its d truth. So groove is all there's to life. If you had any brain in your head u would know he's making sense. Music is a strong means of education and communication. Kids listen to it and try to do wht they learnt from it. So it does matter.
I believe u!He murdered it!!LMAO
is this the kind of songs that will bring Nigerians Grammy? its like wizkid smoked weeds and drank ogogoro the night he wrote this song, weed was giving him one inspiration while ogogro gave him another, he couldn't help but to mix the two inpirations, Good beats, Trash song! ff me @Tweetest_boi
It's sadly funny my posts ain't approved. How sad!
Linda don't give us dat I like Wizkid crap,u always publicise negative tins abt him, soo wetin Dorobucci, Eminado,Kukerre means?85% of naijaa music dooest av substance n u know it yet na only Wizkid u pick out
Wizkid? who is that?
Hehehehe.. he shldnt av pointed at wizzy in particular. . Most nig artists sing trash.. its jus d beat
A very confusing lyrics indeed. ...no meaning. ...I fully support him on this. ..the good old days of great music. ..I miss it!!
