slimyem: This makes no sense. Do you know what it means to have a high-paying job in Nigeria?
You must have really worked your way up that high and paid the necessary dues. You also hardly get that high up and get to have your competence questioned and if somehow things go wrong,the experience,knowledge and skills you must have garnered over the years is enough to push you to the next level or make you sufficient enough.
Punny doesn't secure jobs at the level you describe.

you must be very intelligent.....

timecop28: Well, tell that to Canibus..The man who spit that..If na Modo talk say "N**** you're a joke, we laugh at you like hehehe" una for don comot hin head..But it's Papoose...so it's allowed..lol

stop using village sense abeg.....
how many wack lines can you pick out from canibus lyrics? maybe 2%. with modenine it's about 80% wackness!

leggo: God bless you, eminem is to me the most gifted with the pen, his multi syllabic rhyming is in a class of its own

i doubt modenine stans even know what multis are....

timecop28: You see? those are Cannibus's lines on "Making a name for ourselves"
Now you see that you folks are only being hypocritical. smh

canibus has an excellent pen game - he's scientific and i feel his lyrics but no one can touch eminem's lyricism.

timecop28: I don't know what kind of wordplay interests u o.It's very obvious ure only hating. Like the Americans do flawless wordplays always. Maybe you should start writing your own too and let's see. how about this? "Lyrics unravel, faster than bullets travel through barrels
Niggaz be diggin my styles like fossils and pterodactyls"
strong or weak too?

very weak.......the set-ups, the choice of words and the rhyming are flawed. do you fools pay attention to lyrics at all and the structure of the verses? have you not seen eminem's lyrics and how he intelligently put words together?

thegoodjoehunt: I like as you pointed the clean on the mic point. Many underrat that factor but it is important. Yet many MCs wonder why the rap audience of Naija embraced M.I.

don't mind the modestans of this thread - what do they know about rap? people who don't even know modenine's rap voice is a turn-off.

timecop28: Lol..like he did on the CYPHER right? to drop ordinary less than 10 bars na big deal.

like i said - MI's freestyling ability might be weak but his pen game is better than mode9's. MI has a better delivery, better flow and he's clearer on the mic.

timecop28: I might just chill with you a little if you say no Nigerian rapper is good as far as you're concerned i.e. I would assume what u mean is none is better than Modenine...and even the Nine is not good enuf for you. However, we are debating based on the Nigerian standard of rap here. Currently, the best Nigerian Hip-hop artistes are Mode9, M.I and ShowdemCamp in that order.

i don't believe every nigerian rapper is good enough to do hardcore rap. however, if push comes to a shove MI is a better rapper.

Dopestfiend: you are a world record holder in the fools paradise. Gabbage you call it receiving massive air play in south africa and bostwana. Sincwe you know all the modo line bring up one and destory it. Peanut sized brain wey get faulty na double wahala.

in the punditry of hard currency, i would be the british pound and you would be the zimbabwean dollar.....we are talking outside nigeria and this fool is mentioning zimbabwe and south africa. what do those countries know about rap? your brain is in the soles of your feet - you lose some brain power every time you stand.

Dopestfiend: your sickening back and forth is making me wanna puke. I bet this guy no get one modo album for hand self. Contradiction on the e'pluribus unum track was beaten hands down by rap black messiah and what you want

you are a fool - what you want? is that a song? with one yeye girl dropping the hook? rap black messiah is garbage. i have told you, post modenine's lyrics here - let me destroy his lyricism.

timecop28: If must know, Fat man scoop jammed Modenine's cry on his show several times. Only that he erroneously referred to him as kenyan.

so because fatman scoop jammed modenine means what? modenine does not have any street creds outside nigeria.

timecop28: Playa hater. Go listen to "Contradiction" (E'Pluribus Unum) I bet dats too deep for myopic mind as well. You think it's easy to put out at least a 20-track mixtape every year..lyricist on the roll for 7 consecutive years, go take that away from him na.

contradiction is modenine's best track and it's even weak.... i think what we both consider as quality lyricism is different. you are easily impressed, i am not. lyricist of the year when there's no one else doing what he does.......where's the competition?

timecop28: scoring cheap points with lies.."I am not a star/I'm a bigger planet than jupiter" Dats what he said..in reference to the solar system as a whole.

except that the star is actually bigger than any planet in the solar system. every geography student knows this, modenine does not.

taiocol: hw many of mode9 track u sabi

more than you can ever think of.....

Gboliwe: i know you are celebrating this one I am agreeing with you

it calls for celebration, don't you think?

thegoodjoehunt: I am like a brand new footmat,
I have never tasted defeat (the feet)

see weak wordplay.....this is what modestans hang on to and declare modenine is a lyricist.

Dopestfiend: bros you are delude, you appreciate krs one, rakimollah,talib, wu tang clang et al and you still think modo is wack. Which of your naija artist come close to sounding and repping the game like this guys. You need to be mace ph state assembly styled.

shut the fück up, you homoerotic peasant....
i have already told you no nigerian rapper can touch the art. hardcore rap requires a vast knowledge and the pen game of the highest quality.

majority of our rappers still can't rhyme beyond 2 syllables - many still rhyme with one syllable and that's what you want to kill yourself about. i would rather buy an eminem album than modenine - i cannot learn anything from modenine.

thegoodjoehunt: When people see others advicing Mode, they feel others don't know hip hop. Please, my nickname was once Nas, because of my obsession of Nas' Stillmatic album. I used to blast Talib and Hi tek - train of thought

I was listrning to K. Dot, Ya Boy, Cyssero (RockStar) when they were in their teens. I blasted, Self Scientific tapes, Pitch Black tapes, Freddie Foxx, even PoNoMo of Sweden. Many of Papoose tape including $1,000,000 man.

I reside in PH and was surrounded by many hip hop heads before you think they were only in Lag.

Yet I beleive Mode should look at Common switching to do go with Kanye. Twista doing Slow Jams with Kanye blew Twista. Twista lovely day ft. Anthony Hamilton was a commercial success.

If real heads can't switch, how is making no hits mean keeping it real.

you are very correct.....
i actually think this is an insult on the rap fans in nigeria and modenine should apologise. it's a travesty for him to think we don't appreciate his art. yes, hardcore rap does not have the same popularity like the commercial rap but it's the same everywhere in the world. he must find a balance between the two. wu-tang, redman, rakim, krs-one all carved a niche for themselves in this very art - why can't modenine do the same?

FreeGlobe: mode9, vector, pherowsious exception. lol

i don't know the others but personally, i don't think anyone can spit in nigeria. MI is very good at what he does though but he's not a thorough-bred hardcore rapper.

FreeGlobe: whereas Gucci mane, soulja boy etc don't rule the airwaves in america, dbanj, wiz kid and ice prince do in Nigeria. And lil Wayne may be commercial but definitely not wack. If you don't acknowledge vector and mode 9 as good rappers in their own right then you know nothing about rap. mode 9 may have made some nonsense songs in the past like that Arsenal garbage but he can hold his own. I think vector is #1 in Nigeria tho

they all do - they get more airplay than the average hardcore rapper. what they do is commercial - they basically do music that appeals to everyone - bubblegum rap. lil wayne is very wack.......who is lil wayne in the comity of rappers?

modenine can hold his own where? in nigeria? yes - and that's because he's the only one pioneering that particular art of hardcore. would he get any respect in the UK or in the US? i doubt it.

FreeGlobe: Rappers in the US used to face this problem of mass acceptance initially but today hip hop is the best selling genre in the US through sheer creativity and hardwork. Nigerian rappers are lazy man, they can't rap too.

finally, you can see the light.....

chrisley024: How good is he in tackles and ball possession? Cos we need these more than goals.

he's very excellent.....

FreeGlobe: Damn, you can't be that ignorant. when I say Nigerians here, I mean a greater %. And u seem to underrate mode9. If he is not good to pioneer such art in Nigeria who is good then? lets debate it. I don't care about the so called Nigerian rappers because first, they are not innovative, dont't beef/battle for publicity, not current etc but if people like vector, mode9 and pherosious or so get half the publicity clowns like dbanj, iceprince and wizkid are getting, they would have gone far internationally.

first all, rap is an art - not everyone is blessed to touch the art at the level modenine wants us to believe. underground rap is about excellent penmanship and a vast knowledge base.

i am sorry, modenine does not possess any of these qualities. d'banj, wizkid, ice prince are commercial rappers just like you have lil wayne, gucci mane or soulja boy in america. you can be a hardcore rapper and still be very relevant - modenine must look for that formular instead of whinging.....

Dopestfiend: you need a lobotomy asap to cure your re.tardness from infancy. You gat all modo works and you still goof on a modo one liner.

i reiterate, you are a tomfool!
your IQ must be a single digit to think modenine has bars. modenine has no pen game. you tools don't even know what real rap is, you just follow modenine like sheep and believe the nonsense that comes out of his mouth.

Go sell your hateriod lines to your fellow ninnies.
Dont just mention intellect modo is way off any rapper in black africa. Since you are not well schooled i dont expect you to decode lines talking about academic subject matter. Its like explaining rock science to a bus conductor.

i would lecture you and modenine about rapping....
did modenine not spit jupiter was bigger than a star? you call that rap? modenine has no technique - no multis, wordplay and punchlines are substandard.......matter of fact, he has no style at all. post modenine's best lyrics and i would pick out his flaws for you to see....

the same modenine that still rhymes with one syllable? lolololol - better tell your mentor to find another job - he can start driving dangote trucks. that nigga is about 47 and he's still deluded to think what he does is rap? you and modenine need deliverance.

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]Coogar I dont wanna mistake u for one of those Rat barbecues u've been breeding on ya thread

Players possess potentials before they are scouted and signed up, they're not too good unless such is a proven star. This applies with Mata who was a mere average player at Mestella, we spotted the potentials and got 'em glowing.

We made him the 'too good' ur sociopath friend thinks he is.[/color]

mata was an average player @ mestella? you must also have thought valencia was an average winger in wigan. hell, hernandez was also average in mexico and petr cech was an average goalkeeper in rennes.

if you cannot distinguish the output between a top-class talent in an average team and a top-class talent in a world class team then you should stop watching football. i knew mata way before he joined chelsea and i have always known he was destined to be great.

FreeGlobe: Rap music should be banned in Nigeria. Nigerians lack the intellectual capacity to understand real rap nay music generally. We don't have musicians in Nigeria. We just have beats. How many Nigerians can quote the lyrics to their favorite songs? The poverty level is affecting the intellectual capacity, everybody is dancing. Tomorrow Nigerian artists will go abroad to get record deal and they will thrash them. Mode9 too and co are not innovative, its not like they the best at rapping. They all need to improve their craft. Nigerian music generally is rated thrash

and yet nigerians listen to eminem, immortal technique, big L, kurupt, canibus, etc. let me have what you are smoking, mate. the nigerians with the mental capacity to decipher hardcore raps don't think mode9 is good enough to even pioneer such art in nigeria.

modenine lacks substance!

Gboliwe: lol. Then how did she get in in the first place? If competence and performance are now lacking, she has to sustain it the same way she got in. I go with Coogar for the first time on this.

yuddy, how are you?
long time no see.

Dopestfiend: you need to go get a copy of the nine's bios ands get to know this dude. All your rants is bulls mehn am very sure you know nothing about the mod how many nigerian musician can do anything near elbow room in hiphop. Go get a session listening to black rap messiah or a copy of the e'plurubus unum album. Yoiu and many of your low lifers cant decode line like ''atomic number 47 am ag figure that out if you able while be breaking breath around the periodic table''

your intelligence quotient is inversely proportional to your age. the older you grow, the dumber you become - you want to lecture me about mode-9 when i have every single album he's made on my i-pod? let me have what you are smoking....atomic number 47, i am ag? how's modenine equating himself to silver becomes a punchline?

you are as stüpid as modenine himself....

timecop28: Right thurr! too deep for you, fckin up ur mind like coitus interruptus.

modenine is shallow - intellectually deficient. i don't rap for a living but if i get a period of one month to write, i would murder modenine in a rap battle. what's deep about modenine that told us jupiter is bigger than a star?
modenine spits nonsense and then twists it that he's spitting what makes sense. don't be fooled, MI is a more balanced rapper than modenine.......MI might be weak at freestyling but his writing ability surpasses modenine!

nitlad:
Dayo's life savings going down the drain.....

$50? dayo is bigger than that. that amount cannot even pay for the weekly lap dance dayo gets from her latina chics.

timecop28: How many Nigerians know Rakim, Premo, Eric B and the likes? How many hip-hop heads are there in dis country? If no be for Mp3 devices, iPods, etc.

everybody i grew up with in lagos knew these cats. why are you talking as if nigerians don't watch music channels. i grew up watching Yo MTV raps - similar to many boys in my school and environment. the percentage of nigerians who know these people must be more than 1% and that's still a big market to explore....

honey86: You would be surprised that there are ladies ready to offer their body to keep their status.

i doubt it......
at entry level, yes - that's very possible. once the woman gets the job for years, no man would even approach her with such nonsense. she must have already known how the system works. any approach from any randy man = sëxual harassment.

bigass: not getting jobs, but keep it when performance and competence are becoming questionable.

it's very unlikely....i would say the percentage is 0.1%

diggz: . Go w@nk ur moronic self to sleep am done wit yah.

done with who?
i am just starting with you actually. with your below average IQ and the female body parts you have, you sound like a whöre to me. if i ask you to stand next to sephia, it would look like a stereotypical lesbian relationship.

you shouldn't even be here discussing football - you are a transgendered. you should be out shopping in yaba market buying bras/panties with your high heels and nail polish, you obdurate self-servicer. i don't blame you - i blame the nurse that left you alone in your psychiatric ward and allowed you to use the internet unmonitored!

bigass: personally i disagreed with the notion that if the income is high enough women would use sex to secure the job. what is your take? can it really get the point that a woman would use her body to keep her job?

you and your friends are very wrong....
there's no such point where after a comfortable lifestyle, women would use sëx to secure jobs. you can only find such at entry level when hunger and poverty are big factors that can influence such evil thoughts.

after a level of comfort has been attained, the woman herself must have become powerful with the know-how to take care of herself. you really expect someone like deziani or iweala-okonjo to use sex to secure jobs?

it's impossible....

Dopestfiend: you are irredemable lost cause mehn. Modo went to uk and southy and he was still worship like the deity he is. Man save your sermon for your fellow low lifers the nigerian cypher wasnt featured cos all your commercial lords that jump on it make it look like toilet paper. But serious shady 2:0 pass dope mehn.

mode-9 went where in the UK? which concert did he pull? where did he pull it? keep lying to yourself. mode-9 is simply not good enough for the type of rap he does. i can name 5 members of this forum that would destroy mode-9 lyrically and they don't even rap for a living.......

timecop28: 5 million what?! lol..where are they? when did Nigerians start listening to rap? How many Nigerians buy even foreign rap albums talkless of the local acts? Unanswered questions.

nigerians have been listening to rap long before you were conceived. are you kidding me? the days when boys go to studio with their maxwell tapes or chrome tapes to record music from top DJs nko? this was long before CD players became popular in nigeria - late 80s/early 90s....

diggz: .And wat exactly is wrong wit u impotent pr-!-ck...? Uneducated..like seriously? Cougar u little round fatfool n of course a black retarded nigerian Bas÷ard slaving away ur entire generation as a misfit to d earth.

you must have a splinter in your sphincter....
are you kidding me with the unintelligible nonsense you type up there? you don't want me to descend on you this evening - you would regret the day you were born.

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]I'd expect u to come up with Stats as u've always been a big fan of 'em.

Mata was an average player at Valencia that lacked brushing. Moving to Chelsea helped mould him into a Star - Good enough to finish an EPL season as the highest assist holder.

WTF would U and ur fam friend be on about then? He's too good to be in a club that made him come good?[/color]

mata has always been a world class player playing for a struggling team crippled by debt. chelsea couldn't have re-educated mata on how to do the basics. you don't teach those at 23. mata has always been great but hindered by valencia.....he came to chelsea and his talents got boosted by the other top players in the team.

Dopestfiend: its seems you are one of those wackster the modo dazed at the last bet cypher. Damn modo isnt good save me that crap somebody that make sense rap music from numerous subjects e.g super eagles, arsenal f.c,periodic table and airline technologies. Dude save your shyte face for your couple of low lifers. If modo ain't doing it right that why he is broke fola of nigeria info brings in couple of make sense musician on her friday open mic. All of em same story line nigerians are give a fvck about good music. Modo isnt good the only rapper talib gave a kudos when he came to nigeria was modo. Quit the goat shyte you sniffing mate.

you are a consummate rëtard.....
what's good about mode-9? you are just bedazzled by his cheap wordplay and weak punchlines? the BET cypher was even wack - it wasn't shown at the awards cos it's wackitty wack - compare that to the shady 2.0 version and you would see the difference between real rap and gutter rap.

n0m0705: My thought exactly, I have fallen in love with ross bakley's potential ever since I saw him played against arsenal last season. Moyes should ddo well to go for him instead of paying over the top for fellaini.

this was his goal yesterday....

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]Where would this troglodyte creep out from?

How good was Mata while at Valencia, playing second fiddle to Silva?

We made him a better player. Pundits can easily compare him with the once lethal Silva at the moment.

Couldnt have expected better from a manure Fam.[/color]

mata has always been good - what are you talking about? are you saying chelsea took mata into their academy and taught him how to make killer passes?
