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.
