Ikengawo: Let's stop celebrating mediocricy.
The song was trash, has no point and is not memorable or noteworthy
the video is only shot with a standard 2012 HD camera, that doesn't make it quality, there are youtube videos with the same resolution so don't be wow'd by shininess. Look at the details. The woman 'smashes' the TV but they use a cheap CGI 'glass break' effect because they couldn't afford to smash an actual TV.
the woman 'smashes' the car window and it's the same thing. Mind you it's all completely pointless so you can't say the video was 'quality' there was nothing special about it.

The only reason I would say any of these things is because im worried at the level of 'america wanna-be' the nigerian music and movie industry is taking. We were able to be #1 in africa because for the first time we were showing the world africa. I don't think there has been a video shot in africa this year and the enthuasiasm for the music and movies are dying because instead of being africa we've become the cheap version of America. Sad thing is now we appeal neither to americans or nigerians. I hope this is just a foolish trend. These artists are getting arrogant and thinking anything they put out is gold. If you look at this years biggest hits

they still sounded very african, looked african, and used africans as the stars of the video.
This is a disappointment.

Thank you my brother for dishing it out to them hot and fast...Most Nigerians are so wicked and heartless that they can do anything to bring down their fellow compatriot.Its really sad....No wonder the country is not moving forward.

donwilz: It's never about tribalism or anything... This is below par!!! He used to be better than this.. and pls, don't tell me to do mine before i judge...I'm a medical student, that is what i'm good at... he is a musician, he should be good at that.. Can you seriously tell me that this is good for your ears? bias aside, he should step up... this is not our d'banj.. this is all noise and no end product...It's an insult to the audience... You don't churn out nonsense and force it down our throats ... Still appreciate his hustle...

i have only seen d'banj once in my entire life - nottinghill carnival about 8 yrs ago!

i don't particularly like his type of music but he's nigerian and he should be supported. nigerians are beginning to put tribal bias in their music review. ever since the split between d'banj and don jazzie, their fans have been divided! igbos support don jazzie, yorubas support d'banj! must we tribalise everything in nigeria? d'banj is special, don jazzie is important.......they all need the support of nigerians! we should stop putting one down for another!

@coogar, I don't think this is all about being from a particular tribe or not. For instance, I am a yoruba infact from Ogun state as dbanj but truth must be said. Most of the songs dbanj has been chunning out in recent time are just kinda below par. When the music is good, you will surely see majority of the peeps giving it positive review, but once majority of the reviews are saying otherwise then you sure know the song could truly be below par.

As much as we all often appreciate 2face's music, he still gets criticised once in a while and that doesn't mean those critics of his music are haters.
I wish all good musical artists out there the very best.
Rasheed.

onatisi:

ppl always term any criticism of dbanj and his music as been hatred for the guy but his fans must understand that not all dbanj critics are his haters,we judge what we hear but if his fans like it like this song and see nothing bad in it then no problem

coogar:

you are a troglodyte......
i bet you are one of those animals feeding off don jazzie to write nonsense about d'banj - your stupidity knows no bounds - d'banj cannot continue with the concept in the old videos....his fanbase has now stretched beyond the shores of africa and there must be a balance....he cannot be too afrocentric!

a dolt like you who has never achieved anything meaningful in your life should not be running another down. it's only a music video - not your superstory....music videos do not have to make sense - it's often abstract! as far as i am concerned, the song is superb and the video is top drawer. if you are not impressed, sell your father's house and go make your own! d'banj is doing nigeria proud and he's here to stay!

adelaja70:
Then why the shout of Don J this Don J that?! If he's so flawless why I never hear any hit song from Mavin Crew?!...One idiot said his career has expired,which kain talk be that? Na wa for una oh!

The video is good, but the song ain't doing it for me.

It's like having rice with no stew.

Bland!

No vex!...But Dbanj no force you to buy nor listen to his music na! Thank God you are a medical student and I'm waiting for the medical feat you are going to achieve in the nearest future.

abil, use some mouthwash so you can savour the real taste - there's stew beneath that rice!

donwilz: Reason with your head... not with your heart... you guys are taking it personal... you no like D'banj pass me... but you my friend is being unreasonable...#nopunintended ... I criticized the song... not the person...

my brother, you are entitled to your opinion but don't abuse the privilege....
if you like mr endowed then there's no reason not to like this one - it's the same concept and that is d'banj's signature. however, if you never liked mr endowed - then you were never a fan of d'banj before and now so his style of music does not suit you.....find another artiste that suits your style. let me suggest baba fryo, daddy showkey or eedris!

donwilz: You are deviating from the main issue here... Is this song good enough for you? if yes, it's your opinion... good for you... but i'm entitled to mine... don't forget that...most of Nigerian musician release crap... this song too. don't be immature by talking about achievements.. think with your head... if you are sure u got one...

abiL:
I have and it's still bland.

queensmith: am i the only one that thinks this song is incredibly stupid? I think the more he tries to sing the worse his songs are, he should stick to frequently shouting nonsense between verses,
