Art is creative, we all know that, but when that creativity is taken to the extreme, birthing names which are not only insulting but weird, then its another thing all together.

Through the course of music time, we have been plagued and bamboozled with song titles which takes time to decipher the meaning (if we ever do). Most of these songs are guaranteed attention grabbers due to their rhythm and melody, but sometimes, most of them lack substantial messages we can hold on to.

Here are 5 Nigerian songs with weird titles.



ola

Konkonbility/Olamide: There is a solid chance that you already know entire story contained in this cornball of a mess from the title. For those who do not, Konkobility, mostly used by the few educated elderly Yoruba men to chastise an erring person simply means a daft and sad example for a person. This song which is meant to be a love-ish kind of song, did a perfect job in obliterating the fine line between sweet and gross. From the song title, to the single's artwork, just one message can be gotten from this, an egocentric young man, not ready to take no for an answer, and instead of letting things go, he'd rather stalk the poor lady. I know this isn’t really a serious song, but again, why? For the first time in a long time, Olamide made me laugh, Even more when I actually realized he was indeed trying really hard to be funny and cute. A prog rap-hip hop artistes making an attempt at surrealism, ehnnn nah!
Shokolo-Bangoshe

Shokolo bangose/Sam Klef: Another example of the way most artistes insult our intelligence with their work. Yet another sad example and lame love-ish kind of song (I think). Now, as popular as this phrase seems to be on the street and even in some fun filled homes, till date, no one can actually put two and two together to bring out the actually meaning. Imagine our surprise when extremity was reached and Sam Klef decided on sticking with this as a title to his latest song. Funnily, the title sounds just like the song. In one word, the song title which reared its ugly head in the song, made the likes of some other extreme song titles look like classics.
