This is one those songs that grows on you. I love it

Lol @ replies. OK, I like the song now  . Will post up the lyrics soon if I can be bothered 


Here's some:

"I like Beyonce
But she's with Jigga
I like Nicki Minaj
Her yan$h is bigger 
I like Rihanna
She dey make dey go GAGA
I like Omotola
Cos people like am


I like Nadia Buari
Cos she no dey drink garri. . .


etc etc

My best part:

I know you like  Trey Songz
But you no fit sing 'im songs. . . .


People are saying he was sampling Fela's style of singing here. I wish the beat was better, too mediocre coming from IDJA. Maybe a remix will improve it.

d song is a true confession of his SO MUCH likeness for GENEVIEVE,he mentioned oda female names but didn't say much abt dem as he did wt GENEVIEVE. pls note dat he deliberately mentioned her name last so he could profess his love indirectly.He mentioned omotola's name as a cover up.IMO

I'm sure those that are claiming to like the song have turned on their equaliser to remove the lyrics,
the breat, good , but lyrics, aweful
whatz even the base for the track title?

"Oliver Twist" is a story about an orphan in an orphanage, who one day made the greatest error of saying "I want some more" when they were being given food

Now an "Oliver Twist" is a term for someone who asks for more or is GREEDY

In the song, D'banj confesses to like so many girls eg Genevieve, Omotola, Nadia, Beyonce, Rihanna. . . .


You can see he is VERY greedy

You are just an 'hoe-liva', 'hoe-liva,' 'hoe-liva' twist,

¨¨4 this gbedu u must to need e bum bum¨¨

Lol. . . .


why you come dey shaky shaky bum bum

When you know say you no get the get the bum bum

need the bum bum

bum bum



It's trending on Twitter, everyone's uploading their own vids on Youtube. . .I guess it's official, the song's a HIT  


That's the thing about stardom: even if your song is technically wack, you can carry it along with some good marketing strategy/promotion. And of course, you have to have the die-hard fans  

I am going to make a video of my "skanking/jonzing" to the song. Watch this space.

After the first listen, to be honest , i was like, 'was this mean'? and I shook my head, but the second time, am all over the song like a tramp on chips, This is prolly my 150th listen, hehehe,

If you want deep meaningful songs, sorry but D'banj is not ur man, but if u want to move that bootay, he's on point!

Haters. . .¨¨I am accomplised but don't take it personal¨¨

Nabata nabata nabata nabata, nemete nemete nemete nemete, zebete zebete zebete zebete, damn i jst cnt get enuf of this song

Its rubbish but make una just buy and dance am

@OP, " Opinions are like buttholes(iwo idi) everyone's got one", , so thats why i'll leave u to your opinion and y'all hating D'banj's Oliver Twist single, My Opinion is dat he did his thingy like we know him 4, alujo to gbasky, D'banj to l'enu bi unmentionable, lol, razmatazz

Dude has said it severally, hez an entertainer, I want some1 amongst y'all 2 now tell me if the drugs song no entertain u, if u no like am, D'banj sef no like u. leave am like dat, very soon una go begin shake una bootay 2 d jam,

And 4u saying whatz d relevance of Oliver Twist wit Beyonce & Omotola, i suggest u listen 2 d song again and u'll get the syllogism,

True there is nothing to write home about this music. But it will be a great hit and will receive heavy play in clubs and party because Don Jazzy and Dbanj knows the formula to make hits and dance-able music. Mar my word, this music will be on everybody's lips soon and he has already employed a gimmick (sending Oliver Twist clips to youtube and win a price) That alone si already a phenomenon these guys are pure genius.

The song is wack, and making a lot of pple jonze themselves on youtube. SMH.

What makes you an entrepreneur? Creativity is one of it. Go to youtube and count the number of “oliver twist” videos uploaded already, then come back here and tell me (us) if you have finally discovered the idea behind thE song! Oliver twist is not about the lyrics, beat, delivery etc. It’s about getting buddies together to free style. Imagine what will happen if the song is played in a night club… FREESTYLE

Many people don't understand the song and therefore do not appreciate it because they do not know the meaning of an Oliver Twist. They apparently did not read the Oliver Twist novel. Put simply, an Oliver Twist is a person who is not satisfied and wants to have everything. Applying that definition to D'Banj's Oliver Twist song, D'Banj is talking about a guy who wants to have all the girls. He wants to have, among other girls, Beyonce, even though she is with Jigga; Nicki Minaj, because her nyansh is bigger; Rihanna, because he makes him gaga; Omotola, because people like her; Genevieve, because she is so sweet; and Nadia Buari, because she does not drink gari.

And the last part of the song immediately before the chorus says, "You want to have them all, because you are just an Oliver, Oliver, Oliver Twist." Rather than for some people to say they do not understand a song and humbly ask for interpretation, they simply say the song makes no sense. Bottom line, the song is entertaining and will be a hit.

As usual, once white people start to like the song and give it the Oyinbo stamp of approval, all these people with inferiority complex who had earlier claimed to hate the song will now claim that they now like the song--that it grew on them.
