This guy rap is lame. He needs to retire from music or better still stop rapping and join the thread of commercial music

Can you count the number of times you blink in a day?

kendrick9:
no. he stuck to the art by not selling out

guy please read your signature

ireneony:
dont take my sex for granted, i have every right to state what hip hop is about.
he sound the same, he needs to grow or retire from music

u want a pop rap artist not hip hop. hip hop doesn't sell in nigeria.

Alichexxman:

guy please read your signature

why?

ireneony:
I know about rap music.
we know African American originated rap music, but in other part of the world rapper try to infused their culture and style in hip hop, but in the case of mode 9 he sound so Americanize.
I call that plagiarism, trying to sound like a rapper from new York.
mode 9 is not creative and music is about creativity, when I hear his music he sound lame and doesn't grow.
hardcore for example is bobby shmurda.....hip hop is improving, we are not in the 1990s any more.

boy bye

Plagiarism ke?that is too strong a word,there is nothing new wen it comes to creative industry,there is nothing that anybody can do that someone has not done before..Wat do you now say to someone like EMINEM,who though is white but doing hard-core black rap?knowledge is transient
Wat mode nine needs is not necessarily a change of style..he needs to learn the business part of "show-biz"he knows well about the "SHOW"but the "BIZ"?...hi is lacking.

kendrick9:
olamide rap? puhleeese

huhhhh!! U speak my mind bro..ave always argued this wit my friends,Olamide is not a rapper.hes a singer..even banky w trows punch lines more than olamide..hes just overhyped

@bolded

i thought following the crowd is negative.
you have to understand that HIP-HOP and Rap is a culture . its also meant for commercial purposes but ice-prick and co are KILLLING the art with their watery generic mediocre gibberish rantings called punchlines..

mode nine may not be a very good business man..due to his adamancy ...he should have listened to people's advise and mixed some commercial danceable songs to his albums...
but notwithstanding..-comparing modenine to vector or m.i is preposterous...
that's like comparing a nylon to polythene or a bison to an earthworm..
Vector got murdered in a track he did with modenine -- Zonning
m.i got murdered in the Naija BET cypher...

even mi and vector would slap you for saying they have better punchlines than mode nine ..lol ..

tell me a vector punchline that's better than this one from modenine-- they got the Lemon and the torch ....I got the Limelight

I hope that didn't fly over your head too

I tired oh! only Nigeria I see say dey go dey compared does wack blues artists to real hip hop raper like modenine, mode is my Nigeria dmx, style p n co

Nigerians listen to and watch po*rn pop not hip hop

Adiwana:

huhhhh!! U speak my mind bro..ave always argued this wit my friends,Olamide is not a rapper.hes a singer..even banky w trows punch lines more than olamide..hes just overhyped

if olamide is still a rapper then that means our standards are low. olamide isn't a rapper and yes u right,even banky murders him

mode 9 = mode hungry

Adiwana:

His rap songs aren't popular. The "non-rap" ones are.

If you know the ingredients of real rap music, then you should know Olamide could be regarded as a "Rapper" in the strict sense of the word.

Get his albums and listen to the tracks one by one. He has some cool rap songs therein.

Lest I forget, download his "Voice of the street" and listen carefully! That's rap, you know! Real cool Yoruba rap!

KazukiIto:
Ya Mode9, most Nigerians don't dig real hip hop. But I gots to respect ya for staying true to ur art and not sellin' out.

''Not selling out'' what ? Look Hip hop is America not Nigeria, so if a people do not want to embrace a thing, simply change if you want there attention.
Remember, music in American is revolutionalizing too, at one point it was classical music, now is Hip hop or R&B.

.

Darkrebel:

he does songs people relate too also...

if you read and are knowledgeable, you would understand ...

you are already having a brain fatigue from listening to mode nine.

how bout if you listen to Canibus..then you will have brain tumour ...

Rap is for the literate and enlightened

you are free to preach your rap gospel

Ave been a long time rap/hip hop fan..but to be fhonest,hip hop generally has failed
when i look into american hip hop&i see the likes of YG,Rich Homie Quan,Young Thug,iggy azelia even lil wayne&so on,i start to think hip hop is dead..the likes of dre,snopp have all left it dead..Rick Ross who impresed me dearly with his ''PORT OF MIAMI&GOD FORGIVES,I DONT'' album have gone down the drain..1 of my fav.album if not my fav. Album ''THA CARTER IV'' was the last thing ever to come out of wayne..he now raps about codeine,p++sy&all kind of rubbish. ''THA CARTER V'' is going to be the worse out of the THA CARTER franchise..Drake aint even a rapper.hes a singer.Nicki is the one that has held that hip hop banner..Kendrick's G.O.O.D KID,M.A.A.D city was a gud album..where's Kanye?

ireneony:

then if hes rap song aint popular,that means he aint a rapper.check phyno for eg..Alobam,man of the year are pure rap songs but its popular..Eminem ''rap god'' is pure rap buh popular

don't know modey still got fans this much, God bless y'll, folks that said 9 ain't dope obviously don't know 9

icebeatz:
Modenine isnt loved very much in the industry.
He has a very bad bad bad personality and that is the main reason he hasnt gone far.
Even if he isnt selling albums, if the industry got love for you, you will make some money.
You will host big shows, you will be invited for concerts as a vip guest et al.
He uses people alot.


He is just a bitter mofuka.

Yes bro u nailed it,modo has no good personality in d industry,luk sm1 lyk vector hez also doin d pure hiphop buh he do headline major shows jus bcus hez a very humble dude,2face took him along for all his Nigerian tour nd campus tour,Vector smack 3endorsement deal last month,jack daniel ambasador an american drink,ambasador of chambers n commerce in lagos n also d new face of moaker foam,all dis is bcus of his gud personalities...Modo need to portrait dat...

So you think the fact that his non-rap songs get more raves than his rap songs makes him less of a Rapper?

Olamide is a Rapper!

I have a lot of proofs to buttress my postulation. Okay?
