      It's talent. Satan has nothing beautiful to offer; he only comes to take from you.

      Its because Christians are yet to get up! This is the time for Christians to arise...to take their places in the seven mountains of human existence. government, arts and entertainment, education, business, religion, family and media. We have only focused on one which is religion. Now is the time to arise and let the gifts in you speak freely that we may possess the gates of life. We've got the backing of the Almighty God and above all, we've got the songs that the world needs to hear! This list proves more than ever that its time to arise.

      Yeah Calvin Harris should come before Rihanna,he probably made more money from Rihanna's "We Found Love" single and the entire album itself than she did.
      He also produced a number of hits between June 2012 and June 2013.
      I just wish he wasn't going out with that Rita Ora lass,he seemed pretty cool with Ellie Goulding.

    My fellow Nigerians, this is a food for thought for us all. I am 19 years old and still struggling to get into a university while girls my age in the US are already feeding their parents. It's so disheartening to know that young people in their 20s in the US are already millionaires while people within the same age-range here are still in the university (even the graduates are jobless). Then some bastards who call themselves senators just voted a bill into law saying at my age, I should have been a mother of 3. Oh God! Instead of progressing, we're actually regressing. WE ARE THE FUTURE OF NIGERIA; LET'S HOLD ON TO THAT LEGACY. The future of this country is in our hands. I rest my case.
