Eddy2cute: to simply enlighten your foolishness this same album is currently number 12 best selling album in the world. No nigerian or african artist has had that record before. So suck a d*ck and keep hating, slowpoke
U don't blame him,some nigerians have goten used to listening to wacks like ,skelewu,and dorrobuchi,so its hard for them to know good music when they see one. cool

J.Cole last album sold better than Nas last album. Judging from your logic J.Cole is better than Nas.

This is Y Nigeria isn't developing as much as it should. Too much dull brains like you around.. Your mum should be ashamed of herself for raising a re*tard like you.

Seun We need a block button for slowpokes like this.

odibenson: I don't you man but listen to the album again.at first I hated it after more than 5times of listening to it I fell in lov with jeje confesion lesse pass.or wait wen the album is everywere and banging maybe u would fancy it
.

True.. But if I have to listen to it 5 times to like it.then I think we should do the same with the likes of WizKid , Iyanya , even Sky B.. Its unfair to criticize other artiste after just 1 or 2 listens if we can't do the same with 2face..... Be honest with yourself how many times did u listen to all D'banj recent songs b4 criticize them ?

As much as I appreciate the OP, I still believe he is unfair with his analysis. This album has been getting replay series in my house and I really love it.

The issue is people want 2face to sing like angels but they have forgotten the fact that he has a brand to keep, a standard to maintain, some followers to raise, new grounds to break, etc. All these can only be achieved as he moves.

Hence, please let us be more reasonable next time while reviewing a work of a man like 2face.

Everything has to do with what concept you are trying to work on.


2baba all the way.

I have taken my time to read through four major reviews on this album and I know that of too-exclusive and this one were professionally done but so surprised about one major error on this review by saying HATE WHAT YOU DO TO ME is a lame song. That happens to be a major blunder.
All said and done NET said this album may not be remembered in years to come but second day Billboard proof that wrong because as it is today in years to come this will be the first album to be mentioned after the name 2face because of this feat. This happens to be the most discussed album in recent times because people pick there own different tracks based on there music inclinations. Now that is what makes this album unique. Against @op reasoning in my own case NOT A SUPRISE is the weakest link so it shows the track appeal varies. Do not be surprised this is heading to grammy because the more we discussed the more popular it becomes and more sales and grammy will be a cheap task for him. Tuface for life(best lyrist) don't have hear for all the noise from kids in town.

Confessions! Confession!! Confession!!!

With due respect, songs like confession are usually "add ons" in albums not a "main" or "super" songs.

Songs like confession can not win u a BET or MTV award.

The album will be good with time but the songs are not "super"

Eg. Of super songs ADA by flavour, Gon gon Aso by 9ice, Dorobuchi, oliver twist, Aiye, skelewu etc and that's what ascension album lacks. Confession is not it

I just admaire tuface humility and he's a easy going guy. Anything tuface sing I go buy! But the album is a No No for now! Maybe with time we might see things differently.

#team2face #humility
those song are your own type of music, TUface track are not for your kind,so pack well, you talk as if any of those track can last for years

Bros, listen to the album again before arriving at your conclusion.

I guess you expected 2baba to join the band of noise makers like Davido and co. I forgave P-square in their 'Alingo' because they are a dance-duo, but not 2baba. Since Wizkid started noise making, he has not sang anything meaningful

BTW, in 'Hate What You Do To Me' that you criticise the lyrics ;"...we arrange the place and scatter it again". Listen to it well cos the words preceding it are; "we fight all day and make love all night". In those lyrics, 2baba painted a picture of the other side of the lady/relationship that inspired the song. That other side is THE DEMON WITHIN THEM.

2baba seems to be too deep for a lot of people. Take your time, the songs will sink in.

Shut your stinking mouth, you know nothing! Take a look at the other albums on that list, they are all third class albums. It's a list meant to showcase top selling albums from artiste from non major markets such as Africa, Asia, western Europe and so on. They gave ratings based on itunes sales, not by quality. If this album was truly as great as you claim, then you are admitting that it is 2face's best ever album, we all know better than that.... cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

Are you kidding me I love confession it is certainly not the worst track. I sincerely think that a lot of people have gotten so used to songs like limpopo, skelewu, dorobucci etc and kind of have a problem getting in the groove with songs that are different. Personally I think the album is brilliant because it is not easy to be consistent in the music industry and for 2 baba at this point to be able to combine all sorts of genre truly qualifies the title of the album 'Ascension'

Kalvan: 2face is overrated. He has just 3 good songs.
from this statement of urs, I can categorically say u don't know good music. No Tu Face no Nigerian music.

OP, you are de bomb. You have just spoken my mind. Before I read this thread, I used to think that I am the only one who has these notions about tuface's 'Ascension'.
You nailed it!
No one should get me wrong. I am a strong 2baba fan. Infact, no other artist would cause me to come here and start typing on nl.
After listening to all the tracks on spinlet, I just purchased tracks 5,9,15 and 17 on iTunes. And since last week Monday, I have played track 17 more than 30 times. Confession is the second best for me. Dammy crane did a nice job there. But tubaba sef! Haba naa! He just copied and pasted the chorus. He did that chorus just once. Bros, it was too obvious and did not make sense the second and third time.

Tubaba, was the star last decade. If he continues like this, he would be run over by young boys like wizkid and davido.

I am still his fan somehow, though, but it's just based on his past releases. I am waiting for his 2016 release!
