Analysis Beat: Good, the problem is that most people do not and associate Dbanj with this genre of music and I think the beat is the only thing that saved this song from being a disaster. Nigerian hit songs have good danceable beats for the most part of it at least. This sounds more like what david guetta would produce after quite a number of shots of Shekpe and a few kpakpa sticks. Vocals: Absolute rubbish, he is talking not even singing as far as I concerned. Something made Oga skibanj the man he was, quick fast beats with plenty of african flavour made his songs a hit. AFCON my behind My verdict, Why me, Oliver Twist, Igwe......heck Tongolo self would kick this song's ass like Wladimir Klitschko. DBnaj cannot be as good without don jazy. Don jazy would not reach his full potential when he has those youth academy singers his rank. They should squash the beef and do good music again. 2 Likes |

Red-Light: I also listened to the kwabena kwabena aso whatever that funky madina recommended, i could nt finish listening to the song. Vic o i better than that kwabena clown. At a point the singer was shouting as if he was about to be shot with well-loaded ak47 gun. I now realised what sounds good to morons like funkymadina and tomakint. Pathetic. 3 Likes |

This song is okay.The major problem people have with Dbanj is that he is stylishly diverting from his known usual way of singing.Perhaps,the Don Jazzy's touches are missing.But that not withstanding,it is absolute hatred to call this song a wack.I love both Dbanj and Don Jazzy,they are both good.The issue between them is like a separating couple,with time they will gather their pieces together and we will all appreciate them individually. 4 Likes |

After listening to this song and going through comments here, I can now conclude that haters are going to kill themselves just to ensure D'banj fails. How can you even try to stop someone else's success with negative comments? This is a fantastic song by any standard and we all should be proud of D'banj. This guy is my Nigerian of the Year, against all odds he has proven himself a talented artist, a shrewd entrepreneur and a winner!!! He is on top of the world and can't really hear haters hating from the ground floor!! I am using D'banj as a point of contact: baba God, please bless me the way you have blessed D'banj cos who you have blessed no Man or principality can cause!! 2 Likes |

tomakint: ...and this is what some babies called a classic? ***tomakint nods head and passes by***guy e tire me. I was reading comments and expecting I'd witness the dawn of a new age in D'banj post-DJ, only for me to listen to it and all I could hear was what has to be a crappy soundtrack from a Nollywood movie most likely starring Kenneth Okonkwo and Van Vicker. I'm like wtf yo! Glad twas someone else's mb that was used to download it. This is like Kanye tryna veer towards Country music. Haba! Even the finalists at PFWA had better compositions. What is classic about this? D'banj is supposed to be the intermediary between afrobeats and the Western genres, what kinda sell out is this? We already have Jason Mraz and John Mayer, so who's he targeting to sell this to? Cos I know I and even the D'banj apologists praising the song won't buy. Africans won't buy cos we don't do that kinda music, and if they have to get it from Africa, we gat Asa, Nneka and Mi Casa, so whose fans is D'banj tryna pull?

Top of the world - More like top of the year's crappiest songs. This song is absolute rubbish. After listening to Oyeato i thought it couldn't get any worse but I guess this song proved me wrong. For the first time in a long time I actually deleted a song immediately I finished playing it. DBanj singing Puhlease!!!! DBanj has a style that has worked for him and frankly he should stick to that style and stop raping. our ears with his singing voice. Has anybody here ever heard T-Pain sing without autotune?? Precisely my point - T-Pain knows that he can't sing to save his life, but he knows how to release a monster hit by sticking to a formula that works well for him and that formula is autotune. DBanj quit the experimentation and go back to the basics that made you a star. And for all those that are calling critics of the songs haters, you guys must surely be on some expired crack. Cant a man objectively critique a song without being called a hater?? Must we all love every single song that DBanj releases even if it is crap just because DBanj sang it? In that case I guess all those people that criticized Tonto Dike's song are all haters. Nigerians and their sychophancy! 1 Like |

First of all I listened to the song and felt like there is nothing special about it. Then I started reading comments on this thread and was shocked by the positive reviews. So I decided to listen to the song again and still got no trips from it. Then I went on to read more comments just to make sure that I am not the only one that felt that way and reassure myself that I am still musically sane. Then I saw comments that agreed with my perception of the song. Then I went on to read some further comments and observed that some people started insulting others that gave the song a negative review. Which reminded me of the pro GEJ peeps on NL. So I asked myself why would anyone insult another person for criticizing a song that he/she did not even sing. What is more disturbing is the number of people reigning insults on others because of this Dbanj's song. So I have come to postulate that there must be a 40 man pro Dbang laptop squad on NL. 2 Likes |
