Falz Rebukes Critics Of ‘this Is Nigeria’ Video by thereturnoflucy(m): 10:10am On May 29, 2018

Award-winning rapper, Folarin Falana, better known as Falz, has  addressed the criticisms that trailed the release of his ‘This is Nigeria’ video.

The video,  is the remake of American singer and actor, Donald Glover’s ‘This is America’ which was released on Saturday, May 5.
Falz’s video, which was released last weekend and mirrors Glover’s, touches on issued that boggle the Nigerian system, including political hysteria, internet fraud, the state of the economy, insecurity, religion, lack of medical facilities, herdsmen crisis, and others.


However, criticism trailed the Nigerian artiste’s 3 minutes-42 seconds video for following the exact pattern of Glover’s video, employing the same visual concept.

Not one to take the criticism lying down, Falz responded with a 42 seconds clip in which he chided those who have chosen to ignore the message in the song. He said;

“I just dey read comments online and I dey vex. And I dey vex because I dey see people dey talk say falz tha bahd guy is not original. You copied. Hello, do you think I’m not aware that Childish Gambino is the one that sang the original? You think I’ve not seen ‘This is America?’ Dude, that is the point.

“This is supposed to be a remake. It is supposed to be a cover. It is not supposed to be original. I’m not trying to make money off it. Now, the sooner you realise that you are supposed to pick up the message, or the numerous messages on the track , the better for your life, the sooner you start to act accordingly, the better for your own personal life. This is not business. This is a moral instruction. Wake up,”

That's how rotten the country is.


Everybody will leave the real message and start looking for the type of trouser or shoe he wore.
