Someone once told me that the type of music a society listens to is a reflection of that society; therefore the chaotic music that has in recent time rented the Nigerian airwaves is a pure reflection of the chaotic state the country is in. It looks like in the history of Nigerian music, 2014 has the highest rate of bad, garbage music being churned out. From watered down lyrics that do not correlate, to singing different songs on same beat, the state of the industry leaves much to be desired. Below are my top 10 picks of worst hit songs of the year 2014. You may or may not agree with me though. Some of you may also need to listen to these songs carefully to understand my points well. Continue...10. Hakuna Mata by KCee
This song is senseless from the word go!
He started like this "Five star music, E money, Its Kcee labalo". What is 'KCee Lobalo'? Is 'Lobalo' French or Spanish?
In another part of the song, he said "Cecilia bum bum, cecilia bum bum, Shebi na your bum bum, cecilia bum". I don't know what's with Cecilia's bum bum o..
Most part of the song also goes like this.."Oya whine ni ni whine ni ni Whine ni ni for me oh, Oya shake e ni, shake e ni, Shake e ni for me oh, Oya whine ni ni whine ni ni, Whine ni ni for me oh,
Oya shake e ni shake e ni,
Shake e ni for me oh".
Somewhere, he said "Oya Jikere, baby???"...
As if that wasn't enough, he also repeats this severally;
"Oya baby no wahala, If you need anything just hala, I be monkey you be banana.."
Hellooo, did he just call himself a monkey???...
Then in the middle of these discordant lyrics, this monkey will jump to the lame chorus "Hakuna Matata, Hakuna mata, Baby No Wahala" repeatedly.
9. Story For The Gods By Olamide
Here is a song I wish would quickly go away. Beautiful rhythm, but this song glorifies rape and abuse of women in all its entirety. Story for the gods is all about getting loaded with local aphrodisiac(Dongoyaro,Monkey Tail and Claro), then going ahead to having a forceful carnal knowledge of a lady. The phrase "Story for the gods" (means to refuse to listen, deaf ears etc) Let's take a look...
CHORUS:
Mo ti mu dongoyaro, dongoyaro, dongoyaro And monkey tail, monkey tail, monkey tail
Aro bami gbe claro, claro o, claro o(Olamide is saying that he is high on those Aphrodisiac)
I want to do sina today, sina today(sina means fornication)
She said she cannot wait o(the girl wants to go home)
She said its getting late o(it's getting late)
She said she want to faint o
Ah, story for the gods(these last four lines needs no explaining. Olamide refuses to listen to her plea)
Now she saying mo r'ogo(she says she is finished)
O ti kan mi l'apa o(he has broken my arms)
O ti kan mi l'eyin o(he has broken my back)
Story for the gods, the gods o( but Olamide would have none of that!)
VERSE 1:
O my God insanity
See your back calamity
Girl I want to have it(ofcourse you know what he wants to have)
Do I need your permit?(and he is invariably saying that he doesn't need her permission to have it)
8. In my bed by Wizkid
It's been long established that this song by Wizkid is a total rubbish, which like the others on this list parades lyrics and verses that have no business whatsoever with one another. The song na real Americana Wonder like he sang... "Americana wonder,The way you whine your body Gimme thunder, I go follow you bumper to bumper Girl, I go follow you bumper to fender,"
(Na Wa o, your body gimme thunder, bumper to fender.. Issorait)...
But the most fraudulent part of the song is where Wizkid continues to sing about wanting a girl's body in his bed, and then suddenly switched to hailing names of some popular figures. You'd have thought he was trying to invite them for a gangbang...
"I want your body sleeping in my bed e, I want your body sleeping in my bed e, You got me going crazy, Oh girl I can't explain it, Your body so insane, Oh girl I can't replace you."
Some of the names he called..Agbaje eleniyan,
Fashola eleniyan,Tinubu eleniyan,Otedola eleniyan,
Baruwa eleniyan, Aliko eleniyan, Saraki eleniyan.
Then next is this part which always gives me stomach ache, because I really don't know what 'serving a living God' has to do with getting a girl's body in your bed and what blessing is there to get..."...Oh blessing follow me everywhere I go, I'm serving the living God,And everywhere I go, all my people show me love,
Just tell me the reason gan"
Ok, so what's the reason gan sef? And on top of all dis matter wey dey ground, wizkid believes that he is amazing.
Hear him.."Oh anytime, they hear my song They say I'm amazing gan".
Well, it's truly amazing that a small boy like him can make so much money and stardom with all that lyrical hogwash. Issorait!
7. Dorobucci by Mavins All-stars
This is probably the biggest hit of 2014. Don Jazzy is a great producer no doubt, but he and his artistes have a history of churning out garbage. Dorobucci is so meaningless some people began to doro-call it doro-occultic. Doro bloody. .Doro
Doro doro do do doro....doro. Where I come from in Oyo state, Doro is that rubber device used in drawing up water from a well.
Unfortunately,this is a country where an artiste will just wake up early in the morning and find out that PHCN has brought back power supply, then out of joy he'll dash straight to the studio to record a song about UP NEPA! He'll call that an inspiration. Even Don Jazzy himself is yet to come out straight about the meaning of Doro, because the truth is that it has no meaning. A lot of people are speaking well of the maturity of Davido's song because the boy knows well to pay for the services of professional songwriters.
6. Shoki by Lil Kesh
I hated this song for a very long time, however I had no choice but to like it after people won't stop playing it everywhere I go. Even the NBC ban did absolutely nothing to stop people from rocking this song which had the artiste mostly screaming "Shoki Ahhh Shoki". Davido however disappointed me this time around for accepting to feature in this kind of song. He ended up chanting the rubbish shoki along with the YBNL crew in the remix.
Hear him;"Oya show me shoki, shoki shoki, everybody shoki, shoki shoki, and the request say shoki, shoki shoki, everybody shoki, shoki shoki, oya show me shoki, shoki shoki, everybody shoki, shoki shoki, oya shoki, shoki shoki
shoki, shoki shoki... i am looking for that shawty,
with the baddest shoki,
when everybody they shoki,
abi you still dey look for johnny, but if you get case for body, the town will go make you the shawty,david please don't stop it,
i wanna see you drop it now,
for me now, on this ground
oya daun."
Those are the words our generation is digesting and we wonder why over 70% of candidates failed the last private WAEC and there is massive failure especially in English Language.
By my rough count, there is a total of 200 "Shoki ahh Shoki" in this song!
5. Shake Body by Skales
Need I talk much about this one? You sef check out part of the lyrics na...
" Oya shake body, Oya move body,Make you ring alarm o, Oya shake body...Ah coupe decale ma,Sagasige, Akilibre,Faro de ma, Decale….decale, Krikata,Krikata,Krikata, Krikata,Krikata,Krikata,
Krikata,Krikata,Pon pon,
Somunto….somunto,
Kalopere, Kalopere, Kalopere"
Now, what's all that about???
4. Murder by Seyi Shay ft Shaydee & Patoranking
If you listen to this song, even though it featured Patoranking and Shaydee, all you will hear for most part of the song is "She say she wan murder, he say he wan murder, she say he wan do that thing ye" Do wetin? Murder who??? You be Oscar Pistorious? ...
Now, checkout the lyrics of the Verse 2 of the song where Patoranking came in again..
"Stay close to me, baby girl come in here porn, Give other girls resist, them fit hate on, Member and you alone me rate hun, Even your friends them fit hate on, Fire burning, Girl I'll keep you coming,Say you no go running, Every time, girl you keep turning."
That's Patoranking, Nigeria's best Reggae singer at the moment? SMH!
3. Shekini by Psquare
There is a popular Yoruba proverb which says that when a child is due for maturity, he/she must put aside every childishness.
After many years and despite their A-list status in the industry couple with their global experience, the Psquare duo are obviously not getting matured at all with the dissapointing inclusion of the track "Shekini" in their latest album. I won't speak too much, see the lyrics yourself.
They started the song this way...
"P-Square eh eh, Yahn ahn, (Allen [4x]), Yahn ahn"
**who is Allen for crying out loud?**
Then, they said "Lets go...Otu de, oya sare wa gba kekere, kerewawo, Atu ti de, oya burukutu make e sarabara owey, (Oya shekini ni ni ni ni [3x]),Oya shekina na na na na." (And what is "Burukutu" doing in there.)
Folks, don't be fooled, the lyrics sounds like Yoruba but it's not correct Yoruba but a mumbo-jumbo!
Another constant in the song is this verse; "I get power (ah), me I no dey bother, (ehn ehn)
I no be footballer but I sabi budey Ronaldo," then they jump to this lyrics "Take it (slow),Take it (free),
Alhaji (ehn ehn),Ehn ehn (listen),Take it (ahn),
Take it (orijo),Alhaji (okay)
Ehn ehn (hmm)".
Who is this Alhaji? Well, maybe the Alhaji is supposed to drink the burukutu they mentioned above.
2. Ogaranya By Kcee ft Davido
Now, I'm sorry KCee has to be in this list a second time. Personally, I'm kind of confused about him. Maybe his music is not that awkward. Maybe it's his gesticulations/dance steps in his videos, costumes or tone of his singing voice or his general fashion sense that is awkward and give off an impression of his songs from that perspective. I'm yet to place a finger on what it is. Most of the people I've asked have mixed reactions as well. They really' can't say. Ogaranya has a good meaning; A rich person or something like that. Some things are just wrong with part of the lyrics and Davido once again rubbished his own brand on this one. Check it out;
Intro (Davido)
"A le le le le le le le le le le
On the beat is Del'B...
Its Davido,Kcee
Big Boy, E-money"
Now, even though there is a funny way they keep repeating Ogaranya, I really don't have a problem with the Chorus which goes thus;
"Everybody wanting to be a big ogaranya,Nobody want to sit down dey look ogaranya,Everybody wanting to be a big ogaranya,Nobody want to sit down dey look ogaranya, My God dey bless me, ogaranya
No be my fault o, ogaranya
Believing e no do o, ogaranya,Imaya heyyy...
Everybody like ogaranya,
Mama and papa e like ogaranya, The ladies like ogaranya, That's why them dey love me"
However, the next statement is what I really don't get...
"The place is so cold, e dey follow, Dey for body like logo"..(which place is he talking about? Which place is so cold?)
Davido made it worse at the verse 2 as his contribution does not relate at all. He sang..
"Girl I want you to know, The way you see no be so..???, E get as the thing dey go, So baby you take am slow(Asin??) Shey na now you dey notice,(notice wetin???) Abi u think I be novice, You know say I know say you get it, Money dey(I thought Davido is supposed to be the Ogaranya and not the girl?), Oya make we blow things"(now that is a Boko Haram alert. Beware guys.)
1. Body by Black Magic ft Banky W
The song has now been edited. 'Sex' has been replaced with 'eh' but the rest of the lyrics is still as worse as the original. You can imagine my embarrasment the first time I heard this song on Channel O. You know how Naija artistes like to cover up sexual explicitness with slangs? This brazen artiste called Blackmagic didn't cover up anything. Lol. Though the song was released in December 2013, I feel it's as good as being a 2014 song and should be on this list to show you how bad the music industry has become and what your children are listening to. Here is a part of the song;
"...So stop the fronting, Is what I told this girl,And her body oh oh, Just wanna get next to you, Just wanna have sex with you, I swear I want this girl and her body o o".
You na never see anything, continue..
"1, 2, 3, Then begin 5, 4, I'm splitting a dozen like 3, 5, 4,I am already sky high, but I need to high more, And my dumb friend told me that I need high malt Ewo."...
(Did you see what this guy is singing? Isn't he as dumb as his dumb friends? Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are).
See another one here...
"Baby girl what's cooking in the kitchen, I love the way you smile, maybe we should start kissing, Listen 30 seconds, then she takes a bra missing, Turn into a small kitten, And after a while we start gripping,
And after a while o she turns into a river, And then I start fishing into her hot body, I begin to start dipping, Her clothes just start missing".
Hmm,Guys what more can I say? Behold, your favourite music in 2014!
wizkid for no dey there
ReplyDeleteVery funny!
DeleteOGbeni,Go get a better job to do
Delete👏BIG BROTHER SAYS SO👏
Pot calling kettle black, you write immorality in ur blog and you criticise artists plz pack well if you like don't post

DeleteWizkid is suppose to be there cos he sings rubbish
DeleteThis is soo true!!! Most Nigerian songs make no sense lyrically. Not tryna hate, I love Naija songs but some artistes just don't know how to compose a song with good lyrics. I have my own list sef...lol
DeleteWizkid should had made the number one spot..because that in my bed waz a total confusion..he just mixed whatsoever up and called it a jam..after talking about a ladies body he went on and started exalting wealthy yoruba names..
DeleteI was enjoying this piece of trash until I stumbled on dorobucci. This guy no get work.Keep writing rubbish from ya 1room face me I face u.

LIN-LIN REMAINS MY ROLE MODEL
You made a little semse though.... But music has different purpose. Music is not all about the lyrics. Meanwhile *in my bed by wizkid* is a total trash.
ReplyDeleteI like wizzy anyway n a big fan.
If there's anything I'd agree to in this list, it's Olamide's Story for the gods. It's a revelation.
DeleteSuch shud not be promoted nor flaunted. Rick Ross lost an endorsement just for a lyric in his song which says he drugged a gal to have sex with her
Hahahajahahah
ReplyDeleteThis analysis got me in stitches
LMAO
Eerrm Mr (can't remember his name) I av to disagree with that Lil kesh Shoki
That song is a JAM!
Shoki aaahhn shoki
Shoki aaahhn shoki
I agree with the rest but please leave Lil kesh outta this.
* dancing Shoki outta post
Can't stop laughing
ReplyDeleteSee this mumu dey talk rubbish useless goat, you won gain attention abi ode
ReplyDeleteWho asked you for this? What is your business? Maybe you paid Linda ikeji to publish this! Look how Dump you get! If you think you got better lyrics. Why don't you hit the studio. *Sighs

DeleteWell Nigerians listen to the beat of the songs and not the lyrics.Something to shake off their boredom.Dunno if its good or bad
ReplyDeleteBia this guy ur silly oo. Haven't you heard music without lyrics before. Does enya talk about much in her music? Are her songs still not great. These songs u named are clearly dance tracks and club bangers and attention is paid to their rhythm and not lyrics. If we want lyrics and wordplay we listen to rap and r n b... Dont start writing trash without being informed. Imagine calling doronucci a meaningless song. Your probably a struggling artist who can't figure out why people ignore your songs. Well it's because you know Nothing about music. #udo
ReplyDelete100 likes for u....u said it all....if he wants meaningful lyrics he shld go listen to reggae
DeleteOmg, pls, go back to school. How dare you say Enya doesn't say much in her songs? You evidently don't know enya's lyrics. What a waste of schoolfees. Enya says the MOST. How clueless could you be?
DeleteAnon 6: 29, what has enya's music got to do with going to school? Abi you studied Enya's lyrics as a course in school? ... Smh
DeleteLmao!!! All of a sudden! Err1 knows about Muzik!huge sigh
DeleteEasy there dirt ball @Anon 6:29. Maybe using enya was a bad reference. Her lyrics are inspirational and they hit home. Still doesn't detract the point I was tryna make. And oh, I'm an engineer already thank you very much. Grouch #udo

ReplyDeleteThis write up nailed it for me. I begin yo wonder what has gone wrong in the society. We glorify drugs, rape, gangs, cultists and all other vices. Gone are the days u listen yo music for inspiration. Bobby shumuda or whatever his name is git me thinkn d first time I had his song and it continually baffled me Trace kept playing it, now where is he? Read some comments here of people dissing d write up, honey watch out d future is bleak, our children chanting Shoki am your basket it's terrible, annoyingly ders no stopping dem from knowing dis songs, it's played everywhere.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly!
DeleteI couldn't just help but laugh all through. D guy is kinda right though
ReplyDeleteThis Is on point. That wizkid's in my bed is the highest trash of the century. Such a load of cow poo. As for Seyi Shay's murder, it's the verse Seyi shay herself took that was utter crap. What is 'bumm byebye while do the dutty whine while I do the dutty whine you say bum bye bye, bumm byebye while I do the dutty while hit up on the dance floor'? Really? What the hell is that? As for olamide's song, it would seem like encouraging rape if the girl didn't want to do but, in a situation whereby the girl wants to do but, is just forming, the song would be sexy as the girl would be glad the guy didn't stop. Some of us bitches can be horny and still form like that but, if I don't want to do and you try nonsense, I will break whatever my hand can grab on your head and the dongoyaro will clear.
ReplyDelete100% correct total bulshit
ReplyDeleteJeez! The analysis of story for the gods freaked me out... Never thought of it this way but I just hope OLamide had something else in mind when he made the song
ReplyDeleteHe's right, especially that shoki and on my bed. Rubbish, absolutely rubbish. Hiss
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more, well except for Seyi's song minus Patorankings bit( I kinda like Seyi) but for the rest of them, its just shameful what they call music
ReplyDeleteLmao
ReplyDeleteThat is his own personal opinion anyway, I think it should have been the best hit songs of 2014 and not "Top 10 Worst Nigerian Hit Songs of 2014" because all these songs he mentioned were all good hit songs, I it we are all entitled to our own opinions....
ReplyDeletePlease dont forget to add TIMAYA when next you write cause his own is CAPITAL ZERO..thanks
ReplyDelete@ anon 5:19, u r so true. They cant perform live like gospel singers.
ReplyDeleteLol
ReplyDeleteI'd make an exception for Murdar and story for the gods. Story for the gods is a well themed song, nobody said it was a moral one. Olamide doesn't churn lyrics or mumble rubbish, he's one of the few artistes left in Nigeria that still know what they r doing. Then to seyi shay's murda, if anything, patoranking's verse was d most meaningful. But I can see how u would come to a wrong conclusion when u got the lyrics all wrong. He was singing patua, so u dint have to take every word literally without properly translating. As for the rest, God u're a genius, been waiting for who to put these ppl in their place. I specially need to see u and kiss u for putting psquare's shekini there, however it should have been number 1 on the list. Never heard jargons like that in my entire life.
ReplyDeleteYou are right my dear,
ReplyDeleteSURE,THOSE SONGS ROCKS.AND THAT DEOSNT CHANGE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE MOSTLY GARBAGES.SO LONG THEY DONT GLORIFY GOD....AKA...PREACHING

Whats their problem with all this bad songs rating sef...
ReplyDeleteThere are different categories for songs..these are party tracks, u dmt need to get the lyrics, u r meant to just dance.....Mr. Analyst get a job.
ooooohhh! That's what "Story for the Gods" refers to? Dang! And I'm always out here defending his behind. I guess I'm gonna have to reevaluate my affinity for his and Black Magic's music.
ReplyDeleteLeave my story for the gods o, the rest I agree.
ReplyDeleteEngee said so. ..
Thanks for the analysis, so on point! you took the words right out of my mouth! with songs like this around, why wont there be moral decadence in the society with incidence of rape and abuse everyday.....
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! Abeg me likey dorobucci and shoki all the way. Dunno bout odas. By the way...kcee's crap.
ReplyDeleteLols......i admire ur critic mind...but dude.....ds is africa......ds is Nigeria.....all the music u criticised not only ruled this country....it was loved in the foreign places...... By ds ur write up.....i can see dat u are gud in putting words together....why dont u write for this ppl....and sell...if u er so concerned about lyrical contents.....if i may teach u a tin....music is more of beat than of lyrics in ds modern world....so if u can nod to the rythm of a song.....my brother....its a gud song....d exact aim of entertainment is to entertain....and this songs er doing it....if u want to preach in terms of lyrical sensitivity..... Listen to ragae and soul.....or country music....guy....applaud ds ppl....and not depplaud dem.....*smiles*...i just created a word...just like dat...u cant tell me its not a gud word.....
ReplyDeletei can c ur stupid how can u listen to beating witout listenin 2 d lyrics music suppose 2 inspire d soul its serves as food 2 d soul datz why after listenin 2 a particular song 4 long d brain tends 2 download n replay it as many times as possible.
DeleteWell that's why they are called entertainers.. I don't think listeners want to make meanings out of the songs, I think they want to ease off stress and enjoy themselves. Keep ur judgements to yourself..

ReplyDeleteTrue. Lol at kcee where he said I be monkey , you be banana. WTH
ReplyDeleteI agree with him but I still have a soft spot for Story for the gods, Murder and Body.

ReplyDeleteI can't stop laughing to all ds comments, linda u ve great pple here

ReplyDeleteStory for d gods hmmmmmmmmmmm by d time I thru wit dat guy wen wan try me eh, him dongoyaro & monkey tail go clear 4 e eye.
ReplyDeleteGod wil bless this guy. Wonderful writeup. Dont mind the criticisms, they know you are right.
ReplyDeleteMiss blogger without a job. If you want to listen to jazz and classical music go and buy them, they sell in jazz hole and palms. Leave people making an effort they are at least expressing themselves and their effort has fed you too from this article.
ReplyDeleteAllow Nigerian music evolve naturally! After a while, we wont accept music with poor lyrics and very soon, we wont be won over by colouful videos. But till we get there, your dumb ass article isn't doing anything to help!
And yes! Wiz Kid is amazing! the order of his lyrics do not have to make sense to you. It is his song. just as I think your article/tope ten is "stewpid" Btw what he did in that song was to create one song with three or four different vibes/rythms and still make it work.
Btw you have shown your ignorance wrt to skales song. Those words are French/Ivorian slang and they are different dance moves. Do your research or get a real job!!!!
Asin thanks linda this made ma day too damn funny fa
ReplyDeleteThat wizkid's part was just too funny. Hahaha. I never liked Kcee so I support whoever wrote that about him. This person funny o
ReplyDeleteThis are the best songs of 2014,period
ReplyDeletePls kcee and his music shld be banned. D kinda music he drops could reduce sm1s IQ
ReplyDeleteAbegi! Story for the gods was translated too literally jor. Maybe I'm bias but I did not think Olamide meant it that way. As for the rest, I agree with him 100. They all crap lyrically but then again I don't think we put too much lyrical emphasis on Afro pop. It ain't HipHop.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything except story for the gods.. The meaning behind the lyrics is dat d girl obviously wanted it but was fronting and she enjoyed it afterall.. It doesnt promote rape.. Stupid man.. Dont ever try to bring olamide down cos d guy spits fire and u can never make sense like him..
ReplyDeleteand who the fuck is Morakinyo Olugbiji you can reach me back, knightxaq@yahoo.com if you don't understand music say n shit if you are concerned get d f down and write some lyrics
ReplyDeletehaters of wizkid(e.g LI) should go kiss live wire cos he is the best(a fact) and i can see vividly that LI has a crush on davido(none of my business but....) u are not meant to show any form of discrimination or preference wen writing a general public blog(keep ur feelings for him in ur head onnnlllllyyy!!
ReplyDeleteWoe to them....both the artist and lis
ReplyDeleteteners
Most people patronize rubbish..lol
ReplyDeleteLolz
ReplyDeletemusic in nija is shit rite about now.. in the writers words, he is so right.. i vividly remember when the hip hop ,agazines made wave and we rush to buy, to learn the beautiful lyrics and sing alone.. well, how would dem artist win a grammy when they dont do music for cd sales anymore.. abeg make i dey enjoy my LIONEL RICHIE, MICHAEL BOLTON, BOYZ 2 MEN etc.. these names made me by their songs and they are all evergreen.. many are extinct already cos they had nothing to maintain the game.. MUSICA HA FINITA A NIGERIA..#DANTE#
ReplyDeletegeneration of craze.. @ DJ STELCH.. when you listen to rubbish and you allow it soak you up, then its a matter of time before the mind begins to react to what it has in store. no wonder IBB called this generation a failed one..a failed one indeed.#danterepresenting#
ReplyDeleteGuy go and get a job ... U are simply jobless
ReplyDeletelolz..... interesting
ReplyDeleteWhoever made dis list, whatever d name is, may be a SADIST!!! #MyOpinion!
ReplyDeleteLife is hard enough. Those songs about nothing are the best remedy for a tough day.
ReplyDeleteMust africans rather prefer to listen jingles not quality music that is why we can't go higher than getting a africa award expecially nigerian music which are mostly crap. I have never bought a cd of any nigerian artist, asa and amawunmi are very good and Psquare are good dancers. With that said, nigerian artist are making loads of money for now, hopefully this younger generation will produce bettet music andbplease I am not referring to Davido and Wizkid
ReplyDeleteHmm
ReplyDeleteCopy copy, person do e own, and wan do too. So unoriginal!! Rubbish!! Plus it's 'murda' not 'murder', fool. Just looking for fame. Nonsense!
ReplyDeleteMy points exactly,rhythm is what you get from most Nigerian songs these days.
ReplyDeletecan't our artist do a song that makes sense e.g "say somthing" by a great big world ft christiana aguilera. thats a song!
ReplyDeleteI am happy someone finally asked the WTF question about dorobucci. What on earth?
ReplyDeleteWho be ds Morakinyo self, him self dey try form familiarity wif celebs abi? U berra park well.
ReplyDeleteLike the fact you checking the lyrical content of d songs..bu som lyrics u posted re nt correct u should check dt
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you on kcee and wizkid, they are both daft. For Lil kesh and YBNL crew did they say how they come about the shoki? Did they give it to the original artiste? They and Orezi should be sued for making waves with the song and not recognizing the original artiste. I'm not surprised most songs in Nigeria doesn't make sense in any form.
ReplyDeleteOur artist musicians entertainers have license as artist to write or sing anything, its pure entertainment and not for educational purposes . It's for adult enjoyment. Who can differentiate what is being said. Ah shoki. Shoki mi shoki. Dorobucci haba! Story for the gods! Oti kanmi Lapa of, oti kanmi leyin ooh. Waooh. Oga it's entertainment not education. we are blacks we got rhythm not lyrics. Leave that to oyinbo. Nigerian music has taken over all the disco halls of the world.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on this.
ReplyDeleteStory for d gods is cool. Olamide seems to be building a bad boy image for himself and his music. He has a lot of followers particularly among the teenagers. I don't see anything bad in this, an artist has to be unique and have his targeted audience and if possible live what you preach. At least he is not being hippocritical by pretending to sing gospel muzik. The reality is if u have been in the street, everything he sang about happen always particularly when u frequent paraga joints! People who patronise these joints are also human beings and somebody has to be their voice. Everybody cannot be copying cocaine crazed singers of d West!
ReplyDeleteP-square Shekinni na rubbish, but i wonder why Davido's "Owo ni koko" is not on the list. Dorobucci may have no meaning but it's a master piece
ReplyDeleteNice write up. I totally agree with the writer. Our artistes need to be criticised so they can pay more attention to detail when composing lyrics rather than feed us with weed n alcohol inspired lyrics... Funny how we accept trash in this country. Thumbs up to the producers for the great beats I think we should celebrate the producers instead... Dear Nigerian artistes please pay attention to your lyrics , we do appreciate your efforts but there's always room for improvement.

ReplyDeleteThe problem am having with nigerian is that we hate the truth and improvement.. What the person is trying do is to make us work hard to a standard not because he doesn't like them or because he is jobless. Let's assume you are a music teacher can you use those song to teach your student... Brother more grace continue like this soon the industry will not entertain rubbish song and lyric... Almost all nigerian artist don't write songs they freestyle on a good beat to less work for themself... Boys are really working hard underground soon the game will change and they will be no space for this type of songs and lyrics anymore...
ReplyDeleteI went online to listen and watch the videos of almost all the critic musicians and if not all. All fantastic. I think we Nigerians are great entertainers! Wonderful. God bless us
ReplyDeleteOMG, can't stop laughing @ Cecilia bum bum oo and 200 shoki ahh shoki. Hahahaahahahahahahaha
ReplyDeletehmmm. do people still diss people. on second thought who is this dude that wrote this, cos I doubt if I've ever heard of him. if we have to start judging songs by their lyrics, then 90 percent of the songs in this world are totally B.S. so pls go get a life. and stop dissing the works of others.
ReplyDeleteMy highest disappointment was story for d gods. Guess it poped up on that list not for bad lyrics but for a badeaning. Now wizzy n kc pls pay a songwriter to get ur lyrics straight. Psquare u hv outgrown meaningless lyrics. Make una improve biko. Tho still do luv ur work
ReplyDeleteI agree with the views on Kcee's Hakuna, Wiz kid's In my bed a lot. Story for the gods and Murda just have a very good beat, the lyrics do not quite make sense. But for Dorobucci and Shake body, I feel you shouldn't hate too much on them.
ReplyDeleteYes oo! Lots of wack songs and nice beats in Nigeria bt d are making wave shaa
ReplyDeleteComments on this post just validate what the writer is saying. We validate and glorify mediocrity. Sorry for Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteThe guy is actually saying d truth,they r all danceable but I don't understand them
ReplyDeleteThere are more...
ReplyDeleteYou no get Sense... But you know all the lyrics shey, you dey play the music to the end .. ode
ReplyDeletedouble wahala shuld have taken Dorobucci's spot
ReplyDeleteI agree with the rest especially with Kcee's rubbish but pls and pls leave "story for the gods" by olamide, you probably interpret it differently and the whole lil Kesh song is okay apart from whatever verse that Davido did in the song... you shuld have just exempted it and put one more useless song by Kcee.... as for "dorobucci" I hated it from the start even till now sef but I just have to dance to it cos of the general acceptance.... meehn that song is total crap
ReplyDeletedude i get u, but what can we do when these people are making millions out of it......well....they might be porous and they are still making their money, wetin u wan do abi u wan organize lecture to talk to nigeria youths?
ReplyDeleteTake it or leave it....this Blogger stated valuable facts! I will call a spade a spade,even though my favorite artist was included... I agree with the writer.. We should stop promoting craps.forget being Yoruba,Igbo, hausa...
