....................

Chineke N'igwe - Esther Ebigbo(half caste)

Ololufe - Nomoreloss

Imagine That -  Styl Plus


Street Life - Street Monks (Question Mark Records All Stars)
*d video for this song cost N2.8million. Its off-da-hook. It would be on mtvbase this month.*

Some other nice songs includes Ego- Djinee , Hello Baby - Clench

Share those songs that touch your soul (more esp Nigeria flavors).

I haven't heard any of these songs and I'm in Lagos!
The song that really does it for me right now is So High by John Legend.
I just love the adlibs!

@Fabian
If u listen to call-in radio programs. Try calling and request 4 the songs. If u watch Music africa 12-3pm everyweek day...u'll see video for the first song (Luralph's). His videos are played everyday

If Layi says a song is off da hook. U'd better believ it.

Waiting for your feedback.

Thing is I'm at work from 8am till 6pm, used to watch music africa on STV but that was before I started work, and you know Music Africa's on only on weekends. I dont have a radio in my office cos it's not allowed, but I used to know all the 9jan songs before I started work!

I kinda figured that out myself

@Fabian
Music Africa is re-aired from 3am-6am evryday (i doubt if a worker can afford to be awake by then anyway). As for radio. Why don't u get a radio cell phone or radio shades"camouflage".
I've got a sunshade with mp3 player and radio (well camouflaged..u hardly know).
I bought it from computerport biz in Ikeja.

There are Live call in programes on weekend radio as well.

Luralph, Nomoreloss and Esther's album are out anyway. Get down to Westside Cds, Nu Metro or yaba 4 them.

Gee, thanks! I'd ask some one going to Yaba to buy em for me, cos I work and live faaaaaaaaaar away from Yaba!

I haven't heard 'Imagine that' from styl-plus yet. i'm so behind . Back to your post, i don't know of any Nigeria songs that'll make me cry, but if it's ok to post other songs that i know, i've got tons.

Any link for "imagine that by styl-plus?"

Yes, this was the soundtrack in the movie titled Thunderbolt (Magun)...so touching.

Imagine That -  Styl Plus

I'll love to listen to this. Anything from Styl-Plus is hmmmmmmmm

IAH:

U r right..but Luralph version is a remix he did recently. He added english verses. His version is even more touchin. I'm feelin that guy like isht. I'm particular into lyrics. I don't listen to rhythmical jargons. Some of of the lines that caught me in that song:

...Like a thief in the night/ girl u came into my life/ and stole my heart away
...Like an angel in my life/ u take me to the greatest heights/watchin under the moonlight.....
...I don't beef the mirror because it praises your beauty more than "belief"
...Girl U are like a STUNT lady / no doubt about it/nothing compares to your love.
