Enjoying his loot. Smh |
There were some economic theories, which this man kept proposing that it would help Nigeria economy get better. He talked and talked but nobody in government seems to be listening. Now he is dead without seeing the economy back on its feet. Sad. Gentleman, eloquent, persuasive and passionate but ... Rest in Peace Baba. |
Looks like a Photoshop ![]() |
Do your own sex tape and release it using a fake social media account. Then turn around and make so much noise about suing the fake account. |
Well, it means we might see another round of Psquare beef. It happens every year around this time. |
femi4:Excellent. This is the only informed post on why CAF matches are currently aired across media as before. I suggest you post a new topic on this controversy to guide ignorant NLers. |
kelvinginzie:Seriake Dickson's highhandedness left Jonathan with little option. Being a non-violent person, he simply withdrew into his shell rather than mobilize to fight dirty. I know Dickson was only being a typical 'self-preservative' Nigerian politician but he called bluff of many party bigwigs, stepped on sore toes of many and humiliated many. It was difficult going to a battle with badly divided army. He simply lost it. |
kelvinginzie:If Jonathan is a mistake, then Seriake Dickson is faulty oil-soaked rusty plug that is only fit for refuse bin.smh |

Thumb up King Rudy. |
Temporary setback. |
Kendollar696:Spending excessively for burial is a choice. I have buried my father and no debt was incurred. Instead we had surpluse from condolence money. It is a choice to go for a gold-plated casket, use the elite undertaker, print gloss burial brochure, choose an expensive fabric for aso ebi, serve several meals beyond jollof rice and swallow, serve Heineken, stout and fruit juice, etc. There are cheaper but functional alternatives. |
NNEWIsuper:Your twisted sense of Nnewicentrism must have come from extreme delusion. I am worried about you. |

The g-r-a-c-e Sounds familiar. |
Mynd44:Thumb up for coming to OP's rescue. |
Hello Osayimwen Osahon George, gather materials for the ark and we will join you to finish the job. I assure you. |

Viper vs Judas the rat |
As M.I claims in that open letter , Vector confirms they did meet at the British Council, Words and Pictures, Ikoyi in 2007. However, they never had a rap battle. He says people told him, “’This guy (M.I) could can rap with virtually anything’ and they go ‘okay, thrown words at him, show him stuff’ (Vector raps). They were like ‘Oh my God’ and I was just a barrack boy that was there – a different type of kid. I guess that was it, the first encounter. ” On ‘ The Viper ,’ M.I confirms that he felt some energy from Vector after listening to ‘Kilode,’ Vector’s debut single from his debut album, State of Surprise in 2010. He rapped that he felt Vector had always hated him. Vector rejects that claim, “To be very honest, I was just getting too many ‘you sound too much like Jay Z’ and I was like, ‘Guys, I’m just a very young boy rapping.' If I would project, I would sound on a high pitch, There’s no bass in my voice. Projecting is leaving your comfort zone of speaking and increasing your vocal ability. “I will definitely get into head or slightly no voice. And I was like ‘Kilode?’ Like General Pype is my friend and he sounds like Sean Paul. Durella sounds like D’Banj, P Square; that’s Usher and Usher Ray. Na so e be, but these guys were not listening to me. I was saying some stuff. “It was just me using my music as usual as an avenue to let out what I felt and that was like… And they kept asking my like, ‘Yo, can you battle M.I?’ And I was like he’s a cool kid now, like he’s chill. Not in a condescending way… We all call ourselves cool kids on our records. So, that was what it was. "If there was any animosity or frustration, it was more from the angle of, ‘You guys are denying me my respect and things I deserve’ simply because they think I sound like Jay? Come on .” Oleku (Remix) Vector says the first time he felt the energy from M.I was after he made a remix to Ice Prince ’s ‘ Oleku.’ He says, “ As a point, where it all started was the ‘Oleku’ remake that I did with H-Code. He played the beat and I was excited. I did my verse and from there, I was hearing a lot of things that were coming in that it look like I was sabotaging their work…” “ I was like ‘No now, like come on, guys…’ It even leaked out of H-Code’s studio. At that point, it started to feel like they took a lot of offence and they took it personal. But I didn’t understand why. On why he feels Chocolate City felt slighted, Vector says, “ I wouldn’t know. I’ve heard people say my version was fire. I guess it was the first rap song that had people going, ‘I’m A-list now, so I cannot be you. Oye mi tide po si you…’ I was just having fun. People have preferences, but I always gave shout-out to Ice Prince and all that. “I remember always telling people that, ‘Don’t say Ice Prince’s version’ is the original version.’ I remember saying that on Rhythm FM back in the day. Ice is the originator, I am the one with the version. “From there, it was heated at a point and became news on radio and certain things were said about actions that they were going to take. So my CEO then had called me, and I was just telling them that I just did a version and that it wasn’t that serious… "They called a Lawyer and talked about copyright infringement… I admitted that maybe I shouldn’t have because it really isn’t my own. “ I had no rights over the music other than the lyric that I wrote. So, I understood, but my CEO called for peace action and all that. But in my head, I was like, ‘What is peace action here? I was just dropping bars on other beats. “ I would say this clearly. I didn’t see anything like an attack from them, but on the discussion table, you could tell that there was displeasure from their side of the fence. At some point, it felt like the ‘Oleku’ version that we made was picking up a lot.” Vector then goes on to say that there was no beef from his side, but that his CEO (of YSG Entertainment) told him that there was tension. He also says that he has never seen himself as a legend, but as an artist. He says that he feels like he’s just trying to be an artist. “ When I see these other guys like CDQ, I forget I’m Vector. I forget that a lot of these cats would play my record before they blew. I don’t remind myself that I’m something that has achieved anything ,” he says. King Kong In 2017, M.I Abaga spoke on a radio show that he had never made any music with Vector. Vector came back with a message that felt like a clapback. He said he tried to get M.I on his 2015 single, ‘ King Kong.’ Vector also stated it clearly he was ready. M.I then ended it with an open letter. Vector says , “That was a lie, he knows why we didn’t work.’ If I open my email now, you will see it, gbam. The first attempt to work together was 2015. But before then, he had actually sent me a record (in 2012 or 2013) and the beat was fire and I had already prepared a verse. I then responded back with a mail that I was ready. “Then, his email had Loopy Records in it. I never got a response, so I was like it’s fine. Then I let it go, we didn’t speak for a while. Then, in 2015 when we made ‘King Kong,’ I was like ‘for the culture, let’s do something massive,’ so I reached out via Instagram. “Recently he sent me a message fooling around being a nuisance, but it was that DM he sent me that made me realize that there was a message before that where he sounded positive, but never got back again. As typical, I felt that he was a bigger rapper in Nigeria and left him alone. My Hip-Hop is not that. “After a while, I sent him another record titled, ‘Clowns’ which was about fear. I remember the intro goes like (Vector raps). I was like yeah, the general idea was meant to be that dope conscious rap. I didn’t want it to be another socio-political rap song. “I sent him the record, I think the last time I talked to him was January 21, that year… So when I saw that interview where he said, ‘And I’m like the guy that works with everybody o,’ I was shocked. “This is where that thing started to make me feel uncomfortable because what is the benefit of that? You could have easily said that we were working on it or something more diplomatic. He didn’t have to say that. Well, I guess that out of everybody, I’m the one everybody mistakes me for the cocky and proud guy.” “A lot of people know I’m likeable, but gullible people think I’m cocky. I’m a confident man, this is one thing Nigeria has lacked; confident people. I may be wrong, but I felt like he was attacking me… Like since people think I’m a difficult person, it only means you capitalize on that? How much of a devil does that make you? “He didn’t need to say this. They don’t need to know, it’s not necessary - that additive of, ‘Na me wan work with everybody.’ He didn’t have to say that. It’s okay, but he didn’t have to say that. "When he wrote me an open letter, I was like, ‘Jesus, open letters now? okay, talk to you later' (laughs). I know you, I know too much about you. Martell vs. Hennessy "You don’t now go do a cypher and now take a swipe at another brand that does another cypher. There is only one other – the bigger one, but yeah. We let that go too. “I’ve never said this before, but I feel like that first cypher was the premise upon which other activations was supposed to happen with his brand, but because we ignored, it didn’t kick off. That can only explain why Martell let M.I go. For you to tweet that you want the job at Hennessy, it means your contract is done with the other guys. They’re both cognac brands. “Then he does a second one… Abi he has forgotten who I am? So, this is me just disciplining him on some level like… That was why I went to his lounge to buy Hennessy because I don’t give a f*** I can be disrespectful, I can from the battlefield in life and in rap. What is wrong with you? If we are all excelling, you should keep your opinions to yourself. Let’s just all excel. “But then if you want this, na sand for bar beach. E plenty. So let’s make this very clear, let’s do this (the diss tracks) once and for all. I stopped entering for Headies because I felt there was too much discussions around validation." Vector also says that his awards are at home on the floor. He claims thoughts like this make people like him – with high IQ – feel out of place. He feels like he’s done with vain battles of greatness. The Purge M.I Abaga scooped Vector for ' The Purge ' and posted the song on his own page. Vector called it, "stupidity" and says that M.I risked a lawsuit. When asked why he didn't sue M.I, he says, " What makes you think I didn't? " You might notice that M.I has taken ' The Purge' down from his YouTube page. When asked why he dropped, ' Tetracycling,' he laughed and says that he's just having fun. Vibes before T.E.S.L.I.M and T.E.S.L.I.M T.E.S.L.I.M is the album, Vibes Before T.E.S.L.I.M is the imminent 8-track EP. Teslim is Vector's father's name.
