Bullshit assertion and dumb comparison with Beyonce about police racism. An entertainer will most likely gather more views than even an entertainer....to make it worse people on social media are agreeing to Falz assertion.
This are the same clowns that started the #lazyyouths tag and were making noise about not being corrupt on the internet....suddenly they have accepted to be criminals cos an entertainer sang it. How do I describe your likes?

Say no to Yahoo. Do something meaningful, boy.

I was detained in Malaysia for 20 minutes and was thoroughly searched just because I was a Nigerian. Who caused it? You, yahoo guys and your drug dealer friends.

You people make life difficult for the rest of us who are genuine. Y'all will pay for my humiliation. cry

I did not expect Falz as a lawyer to generalize or tag every Nigeria a criminal because I am not one and there are several others who are not.Apart from this other things in the music video speak about Nigeria.
you need deeper understanding to understand that line. When he said everyone is a criminal, it was based on how the police treats everyone both guilty and not guilty as criminals. Same way other countries stereotype Nigerians as criminals whether you are one or not. He didn't mean to say it is true but that it is the stereotype every Nigerian is facing.

Following the spontaneous reactions that trailed Falz the Bahd Guy’s latest video, This is Nigeria, where he showcased his female choreographers dancing Shaku-Shaku in Hijab and several other issues affecting the nation, the National Film And Video Censors Board (NFVCB), Abuja, the agency in charge of censorship and rating of music videos and movies has reacted.

In an interview with veteran entertainment journalist Rasheed Abubaka, the Director, Licensing Department of the NFVCB, Cornell Agim said the rapper, Falz didn’t bring his music video for licensing and rating before he released it to the public and unfortunately, the agency’s monitoring team hasn’t reported the video to the directorate.

He said that, though it is their job to censor and rate videos before they get to the public, they can’t be everywhere. That is why journalists and members of the public affected by the visuals are expected to notify them. With that, they can investigate the videos.

In his words, ‘the agency do censorship and rating of music video before it gets to the general public. We ensure we do analysis of those videos. We also try as much as possible not to tamper with the creative intention of any artiste except they come with some obscenity, which we most time kick against. BUT Falz didn’t bring his music video for licensing before it gets to the public. As the Director of Licensing, I haven’t seen the video. Same as the agency. None of our monitoring team has brought it to my notice. Hence, we didn’t censor it before it gets to the public.

He added that,

‘the truth is, most time we can’t reach out. We are handicap because we are not everywhere and we can’t be everywhere. That’s why people like you (journalists) should notify us once you see things like that. Bring them to our notice and we’ll investigate it and bring the perpetrators to book. Often time, we get complain from Nigerians, saying what’s the agency doing? We are trying our best though our best might not be good enough. That’s why we need people like you to supply us with information about the affected song.

The agency do organise sensational programmes for filmmakers and music video doctors. We held one recently in Bauchi, we called it consultative forum but many of them didn’t come. You invite them, they won’t come. Some of them will even ask you for transportation fee. We also print out handouts containing guidelines. If you visit our website, there are relevant materials on licensing and rating. But are they visiting the site? Are they reading the uploaded materials? Despite our efforts in sanitizing the industry, some of them would prefer to break the rules’.

those girls in hijab is one core beauty of that video. so cool to see pretty girls dancing shaku in hijab. its uncommon and makes it unique. i dont see anything wrong with it cos Muslims dance shaku in thir closet, there is no big deal doing it before a camera.

it will definitely initiate a new concepts on Nigerian music video

All things being equal lawyers are trained to choose their word carefully not anyhow, as a lawyer he has better command and control of English language.Tell me how many people will understand it in the same manner you understand it and mind you this song is not mainly for local consumption.Therefore as a lawyer and musician he suppose to make his lines clearer than a rag- tag musician for every man to understand.

Falz is not the president, you slowpoke.

He is a common civilian and has the right to an opinion.

Your president is the chief marketing officer of the Nigerian nation.

If you can't see the difference, then you and your president deserve each other.

So because Falz is an entertainer, u lots accepted that u are criminals. U guys are not starting #iam not a criminal, #lazynigerian youths or #i amnot corrupt simply because it was "civilian" who obviously will attract more views than whatever is ever said by the president. How moronic and hypocritical can u lots be?
If the president calls u a criminal...u will be on the internet whining and masturbating, but if a musician calls u a criminal, yes u are a criminal cos he has the right to an opinion about u. Useless criminals cheesy
