AreaFada2: .

The people smoke strong Ekiti/Ondo Igbo. The one with very large seeds! grin cheesy.

Can you imagine.

No Joly Papa by Rex Lawson, No African Soldier by Sunny Okosun.

Any list without at least 3 songs by Abami Eda including Zombie, Lady etc was compiled during a bout of serious collective hallucination.

Then none by Sunny Ade, No Orlando Owo, No Obey, No Uwaifo (Joromi, Guitar boy), No Osadebe, no Shina Peters, no Majek Fashek.......

Dem think say all of us na teenagers

MTV Base are on some kind of medication. Why picking this generation of artists over the 90's, 80's or even 00 musicians?

How can a song like Oliver twist or Waje be on the list of the ' greatest African song?' Smh for MTV
