'Xtra-Ordinary Senavoe – check! IM2 is now ready cos X.O is on deck! Xpoint0 coming soon, I promise, Massa – no vex! I’m bald (I ball), I win – Alec (Alek) – Wek! Lyrical fiend and phenom, rap’s phenomenal phenomenon Them faeces wanna see me, tell ‘em the beat is what my feet are on Frank Sinatra, I see the pussies and Rats in a Pack The backstabbers are back, but dawg, I’ll murk any cat on a track Never brag, just stating the facts,I made em a pact: SANKOFA - ‘taking this back’, noConfederate Flag I mean – u wanna go to College – sit for SAT! Or u could etch me on your chest – call it a ‘tit for tat’!’ Get immortalized along the line, Igotta lotta lines I got em mortified, I’m more defined with more lines than them longs and lats Longitudes, latitudes – my attitude is Dudes is auto-tuning they voice when their rhymes are really outof tune! Call me Julius! The crown was roaming (Roman)– Nemo I ceased her (Caesar) – so now X.O is the hero?? Got Green – so thinking of changing my name to Ceelo Heavy bars – so thinking of changing my name to Kilos The rap game is the matrix?? I’m sorry dawg, I’m Neo And before I came in I put a hat on: Ne-Yo! You sick? You mean like cancer? My weakest flow is chemo You got it hotter than Senavoe? Never da’t (Nevada) – Reno! Sinner! Aren’t y’all? Well take my scrotum when I dieso you can have a ball Na eff it, they can have em both – they need some balls They may take that literally so help me hit that “pause” - pause, pause, pause ...

Bemy guest King Kong? Never! (See) I don’t need to beat my chest Rewind this verse? Yeah, I would too – rappers shaking like Tourette’s X.O’s on IM2 – I put this crazy beat to rest |

runzlord: If you post the lines, it is easier to analyse First the two lines don't conect. Secondly the people trying to be brave when they are about to die wont hit me as a punch line. I'm like a ref, I ma not in this to play. Is just twisted words. Meaning he is not in this to play. You can look at this Jay's line. Me and money are like I'm cold defenders, we stick together. My favorite line. Meaning when he is hustling for cash, it is like he is fighting a tough battle for money. When he hustles with that passion, money comes as if it is hustling for him. Too sick. |

taiocol: dats the type of rap u ar calling mode9 2 do Coogar was talking about the lyrical skills of Emnem and how Mode isn't in that level as his fans makes him. I just pointed out some of his punchlines. Lil Wayne's punchlines were because many people feel he is wack, but he isn't. My point about how Mode should go is already on the front page. In one line, He should study,"Aye Po Gon". By Ill Bliss. |

Basically, Mode9 is complaining about the same thing most conscience American rappers are complaining about. The game has changed and lyrics no longer matter. People want a catchy beat and a catchy hook, something that can be played in a club for dancing. American hip hop, once dominated by New York rappers and a few West Coast acts like Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube etc, now see its industry dominated by mostly Southern rappers who for the most part just find a loud bass beat and a catchy chorus and its a hit. Old school artists either conform to the change or remain with their old style and hope they have enough fans to continue to support them. You cant tell people what they should or shouldn't like. When rap first started, they ruined the careers of a lot of r&b singers and instrument players. I mean these are people who actually went to school to study how to sing or how to play the piano etc. All of the sudden, somebody chanting rhymes on a microphone to a beat on a record player is now a BIG SUPERSTAR artist and the music is called rap. People change as time changes. Na so life be. 1 Like |

I have just one point here! The industry's crazy! We want to explore other genres of music. We want something new...go out there on the street , ask around,let them criticise the industry! We're going too commercial that nothing make sense again! If all of a sudden people start singing raggae and thats all we hear on the radio,which style of music will people like most? Now back to my point,we already have the so called 'commercial music' and truth of the matter is we need other genres of music too to make it interesting.Trust me its not sustainable if we stick to Wizkid's pop alone or D'banj's talking music! I bet what happen to Awilo will follow suits.IN my own opinion, mode 9's hip-hop is not promoted enough thats the problem. M.I broke into limelight with his debut single 'Be yourself' which is a pure hard core rap! Modern music does not promote one type of music;Adele sang someone like you and it was a big hit.I love to dance but wont reject a nice cool music which is not available on the most radio all I hear's wizkid on repeat.tell me why wont I like Wizzy cos one funny thing about music is you'll definately like a song hot on playlist. Its not only about dancing, I also want some music to make me feel good. |

beebwai: that@s just a load of crap you typedyou can say that again! How dare anyone say we're too dumb to listen to lyrics cos some poor artists sing rubbish? Bone people love good lyrics and crave meaningful music! Not everybody goes to club;so its not good enough to sing trash and say naija likes rubbish.We need ballance;we need creativity too! Why do you think some criticise Terry G for his speaking in tongues? Truth be told in the long run, the songs that'll remain evergreen are the ones with message. Artists should sing lyrics too before even the street get tired of dance-hall like they got tired of Awilo! |

How about in the morning before going to work or in the evening when d brain is hmmm..and needs inspiration. The problem we have in nigeria music industry us the media promoting wack songs and stupid nude videos No good music anymore its a shame. If fela sang rubbish we won't be celebrating him today Obey,Evi Edna Ogholi,bob marley,tupac... To mention just a few..the problem is once d media start promoting wack songs...u listen today tomorrow and always it sticks in the head!! If MI could come out like that let the trend continue All thhese guys are just noise makes and passing fads anyway!! I would rather listen to old school than listen to dammy krane or k switch |

Sam xiu lee: you just hit the nail on the head,I was wondering what he meant by the fact that we can't understand his lyrics,as much as I love him,I would advice he understudy the likes of eminem,jay_z,a perfect understudy will be kanye his lyrics are sometimes deep,conscious and he knows how to turn them to songs,he shouldn't be too rigid like nas,even Olamide lyrics are good he knows how to make them funny and turn them to a good song.be doesn't need to change his lyrics he should work on his deliveries,this is 2013 not 1988. please ..Nas shouldnt b compared t Modo. Naa still sells. His last album as well aa his combo wit Damian Marley were DOPE. Mode 9 is lyrically v.good but his albums r boring..truth. Its difficult t listen t dem top t bottom witout tuning out.. |

ehixking: This is what most Nigerians actually want.Am totally with you on this! I have a pal who owns a record store; you'll be suprised his response when I asked him how in the world does he still have Fella's record on display...I was shocked when he said over time people ask for those oldies for the content that its lacking in the so called jamz we have now.In said Obey,Sunny Ade,Osadebe,Onka Onwelu may stay months without a buyer but it'll still sell in years and years to come! Where as our yours truely counter parts are not getting buyers as such cos people prefare D.j mix! Am not saying record sales even amount to success cos am not sure these legends are getting anything, but onething can be sure, people even unborn Children will still remember them. Where's Danfo driver today? Look song that are lyrically sound like that of Asa's will always be on record sale...I will buy your album if you have all the content that makes a good album not just dance,dance and dance with poor content. |

It's simple, people won't buy what they don't like. This is simple marketing understanding, doing a 12 track album wouldn't make people buy when your music doesn't relate with them. Have you ever asked yourself ' Why do companies rebrand?' If you want a change, you have got to change. That's mmy 2cents. |

I remember the first time i heard "Lagos State of Mind" on radio, i parked my car, rushed to the nearest music shop to buy his album. It was something really new in Nigeria, i loved the song so much it was on repeat for a couple of days. Although mode9 stole or copied a lot of lyrics from NaS and Fat Joe on that album, it was still good. |
