Glamourogo: Who then are these few people Mode 9 is referring to?

Maximus85:
Even the american HardCore Hiphop rappers get dance tracks.... Tupac, Biggy, snoop Dog/Lion, Ice cube, Dmx, JayZ, Nas etc. Stay there and be blowing grammar. Hunger to turn u to Mode Zero.

Nuzo':
I love and patronize your music. However, most Nigerians don't always have the energy to be listening to songs with big grammar...and when they garner the energy, they go for Talib, common, Mos Def and even Nas.
So, instead of the big grammar thing...they deecided to pitch tent with the likes of Phyno the Fino, Olamide, Raw, Ajasa and co. These guys rap about almost everything you rap about. Difference is they do it with understandable languages.

And sir, if you are too proud to go a bit commercial....at least do more of that kind of 'CRY' song. It worked!

sucess001: Imagine a yoruba singer singing yoruba and wonderin y americans are not buying his album.

Imagine another person saying the americans are not buying becos they are ntellectually wack.

Mode...if you cant produce a song to communicate with your peeps..then go back to music school...

harkindele: I love rap music, but I'v neva liked Mode9....not dat I hate him but I seriously think he isn't doing enough. Vector is better for me. I am a nigerian...but I think SARKODIE of ghana is the best when it comes to rap.

Jamji: Please who has mode 9 "elbow room". Abeg help.

Glamourogo: Mode9 Cries Out On Neglect Of His ‘Type Of Rap’. Babatunde Olusegun a.k.a mode 9 went all emotional on hotfm’s breakfast radio show with TuTu Adeoba and Cheezy Charles on his type of non-commercial rap, he re-affirms that he can never change his type of rap to suit an audience and decries neglect on his type of rap’

‘I put out a whole album nobody cared’
‘A whole 20 track album ‘alphabetical order’ nobody gave a f**k’
‘You see how the industry is’ how do you expect me to feel?
‘Nigerians don’t like hip hop they only follow the hype, they don’t even know what it is’
I only cater for my real fans; I don’t really care about the fair weather, band wagon jumpers
‘I cater for my fans and they are feeling it’ i have put up too much effort in promotion of my materials’
‘It’s just some certain people in their minds feeling that am not doing well’

taiocol: ma flow is f.ucking ridiculous. Nice track. Hav u heard iceberg slim assasination reply 2 mi

Suigenerisshegs:
You gotta travel into space to get it.
Truth be told,Mode9 is a joke...He is being flattered with the self acclaimed title of "the best Nigerian rapper' yet he's almost irrelevant. Search for his best songs on google and you'll get no result,Wikipedia doesn't know he exists,he doesn't appear on the lists of artistes companies might sign a deal with.The guy will do himself some good if he has a rethink.
Commercial rap over hardcore rap.

leggo:
you were making sense, then you said sarkodie

harkindele:
Agreed, I exaggerated a little, but sarkodie z better than mode9 or vector. #obidi pon bidi

timecop28: Now playing: Tears of pain - Modenine ft Oshosensi

decepticos:

decepticos:
its a tight song like this that makes me respect the 9, and pray more ppl get him, i meab with a line like "if u wanna die then why are u rapping put a rope around your neck lets hear some snapping" and "them no wan die dem just think the image cool, if label got you doing it then you a fool" simple as they look its the how dat matters.

crisycent: I remember the first time i heard "Lagos State of Mind" on radio, i parked my car, rushed to the nearest music shop to buy his album. It was something really new in Nigeria, i loved the song so much it was on repeat for a couple of days. Although mode9 stole or copied a lot of lyrics from NaS and Fat Joe on that album, it was still good.

timecop28:
U sabi. "You must have missed the bus, but imma take you back to school"
When Nine dropped "Pentium IX", there was no naija hard core rap joint that was just as dope as that jam. Every Naija hip-hop head would attest to that.
