Babzilla: I DONT KNOW WHATS THE BIGGIE
PASTORS DO IT TOO ALONG THE IBADAN-LAGOS EXPRESSWAY.

lalaboi: I would suggest you to contact the banks individually. .

Make sure your Business idea/proposal is well written (ever heard of feasibility study?). Check the web of how to write these and make your ideas and projection very easy to understand.
The other issue will be "collateral" as many have pointed out. Looks towards your parent/family for that.


Honestly, I do think it will be hard for you to get your quoted amount. .

alienware: the richest peeps we know don't spend this much on exotic mobs, get ur fact before u spew rubbish. Stoned i.m.b.becile.

Hi Olamide,

I am a fan of yours and I have followed your growth from the days with ID Cabasa and the Coded Tunes crew, to your days under Toni Payne‘s management. Parting ways with her was quite risky but I felt it was a move worth making as you needed a fully dedicated management to grow your career. That move paid off and you’re now better off for it.

Pitching your tent with 1805 Entertainment, your immense talent and the void left by Dagrin‘s demise meant only one thing – A top spot for you! I am glad you fit in perfectly. A bolder move to start YBNL Nation and you going ahead to drop your second album on the YBNL Nation/1805 Entertainment imprint was another risky move that still paid off. At that point, I knew the ‘god of music’ was behind you.

Though it wasn’t so surprising to see the street embrace the album cos of it quality street wise content, the rate at which the ‘butties’ accepted you too was alarming. People preached the YBNL gospel and gladly talked about how good the album was. Even my cool friend Fola Alade became an advocate of ‘Razz being the new Cool’, no thanks to you. But while we where enjoying Jale, Street Love, Jesu O kola, Stupid Love, First of All, Ilefo Illuminati amongst other beautiful songs, dear Olamide, you unconsciously killed the album!

Yes, you unfortunately killed it by releasing too many materials not so long after the album dropped and you shifted our attention off the album. To make matters worse, some of these songs were not half as good as the songs on the album and they also were not well promoted, Confession, Tonto Dike, Baddest Nigga That ever liveth, e.t.c. Needless to say that some were also really good, cos some of us still have Turn Up and Durosoke topping our playlists.

Baddo, have you heard of the point of equilibrium? That’s the point when the law of diminishing return sets in. It happens to everything and everyone. In simple terms, it’s the point where you get to the peak, have nothing extra to offer and the drop starts. To some, the drop might not be deep while to some, they would never rise to that point again. Unfortunately, this happens a lot in the music industry. While we agree that you are HOT at this moment and the inspiration is much, brother, please do not wear yourself out. Ma le ara e ni ere.

Truth is when you saturate the market with too many materials, we get tired easily, we don’t pay full attention to them and the songs end up not getting as much love as they should. Keep recording, keep saving them in the cloud and don’t push too many songs within a short period. Let the fans yearn for more, let us savour the goodness of some of what you already have.

On a final note, I love the way your personality is gradually evolving ‘cos building a brand of yourself should be beyond your music. I foresee a near future where corporate brands that want to connect with the streets would come to you, simply because you are the link between the streets and the corporate world. A celebrated grass to grace story. The true voice of the streets.

Kendrick Lamar gave Papoose's career a huge boost by letting him grace the Summer Jam stage without even telling the concert's organizers beforehand. It was a bizarre moment for sure, but the Compton rapper said he was just showing Papoose love after Papoose had helped him out years ago. So today, Papoose returned the favor... by dissing the shit out of Kendrick in his response to "Control."

thegoodjoehunt: If Takeover is average, then what is ether, a diss track that had no direct diss to touch Jay?.

On "Ether"—one of the most vicious diss songs of all time—Nas took plenty shots at Jay-Z's sexuality and street credibility, but the line that burned extra slow was, "Eminem murdered you on your own shit." And by the way, there's no denying that Nas was right.

Most of Jay-Z's album The Blueprint was built on soul but for some reason he opted to rhyme over one of Eminem's trademark haunted house tracks alongside Marshall himself. Maybe Jigga wanted to prove that he was the Best Rapper Alive by rocking with The Next Best Rapper In Line? Either way, Jay held his own but Marshall spazzed, spitting one of the best verses of his career and owned Hov on Hov's best album.

thegoodjoehunt: Jungle is gangsta, Nas is Womanliness. How many Ni88as has to sleep with his baby ma to define a man Womanliness? Jay-Z hit his woman, Iverson did, Infra red did, and after Infra red was done with her, Nas sent a text message to Kelis begging her fo one more night.

By the way, that diss you highlightd is not close to the ones I put up or Nas using a FA.G model for his Karl Kani and Esco ads.

Tintinix: I am sure he is not on Drugs... He Like me could not relate to it...
I read this and I am like huh?!

Also we could as well not comment but then there is freedom to express ourselves!! Deal with it.

dvdon: Wetin concern us with dis topic? is it gonna put employment letters on d desk of the 40million unemployed youth in Nigeria.

The heat from Kendrick Lamar's verse on "Control" has spilled over into Twitter beef between Styles P and Joe Budden. The NY rappers started taking shots at each other on Twitter after K. Dot referred to himself as the "King of NY."

Styles first said that the people called out by Kendrick should have responded by today at noon. This prompted Joe Budden to tell Styles that he should have been one to respond. "@therealstylesp he called out everybody. U included." The update by Joe was later removed.

Styles P then went in on Joe Budden, calling him an Internet celebrity. "1st and foremost I have never acknowledged any kings but biggie ny or not ny 2nd of all don't play with me I f--- sh-- up!" adding," lyrically and physically so chill and save your Internet bullsh-- 4 the next ninja."

Styles then claimed that he and Joe aren't even friends, so he'd prefer if Joe not @Reply him on Twitter at all. "Just don't @ me talking like we folk if we ain't!" he wrote.

The two ended up leaving it pretty much at that although P added that he was open to scrapping with anyone off-Twitter. "I'm open to any scrapping behind closed doors with no law involved though!"

felucci: We are still not getting the right answers. Who then owns 1jkobsonline if Akin Alaba has denied being the owner? Has 1kjobsonline.com gone the way of Liberty reserve. The website is no longer online and before it went offline, I had paid in N10,000 to my buyers account and it is still yet to be credited for more than 4 weeks.

The domain name belongs to Akin Alabi and the bank account belongs to Get Altitude Nig Ltd which banks with Skye bank and yet many customers had paid into their account without any proof of service provided or refunds being made. This is a serious issue.

3ace: I'm tired of tribalists on Nairaland. What is it between Igbos and Yorubas? Can't you people just let it rest?

A member of Volunteer Service Overseas, Mr. Michael Young, a citizen of United Kingdom has charged Nigerian youths to stay in their country to contribute to its development instead of risking their lives searching for unreal greener pasture.

Young, who stated this along his counterpart, Miss Samuel Joy Ben during a press conference in Ilorin to mark the beginning of International Youth Day celebration in collaboration with National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), Kwara State chapter, said immigrants could make it in their countries without embarking on dangerous journey.

Narrating his experience with Nigerian immigrants in UK, Young disclosed that his contact with a Nigerian man with his family in his country was not palatable.

“I met him in the toilet, he told me he has a wife and children in Nigeria whom he had to cater for. He told me he has to work for 15 hours washing toilets in different places.

“The question is, why can’t they stay in Nigeria? You can’t make it in this country because life in UK is too expensive. Youths can be in Nigeria and contribute to the development of the country”.

The volunteer, who appealed to government to ensure good policies on education, said it is through compulsory education for children between 6 to 18 years that helped UK to reduce poverty and youth unrest.

Young caution Nigerian youths and immigrants to be sure of where they are going if at all they want to travel abroad, stressing that the risk facing foreigners are too challenging.

His counterpart, Miss Ben advised Nigerian youths to change their attitude towards acquisition of money, stressing that there are many ways they could contribute meaningful to the society.

In his reaction, the Chairman of NYCN, Comrade Kazeem Adekanye noted that the main agenda of many youths in Nigeria travelling abroad is to seek greener pasture which lures them into series of problems.

He appealed to Nigerian youths to stay in the country and utilise their skills, talents for the development of the nation, stressing that over 70 million Nigerian youths out of over 150 million Nigerians are enough to build the nation
