Coly2012:
From my experience it's the effect of cammo drugs that will pull off her hair, I wonder why she is doing the shaving herself.
The moment the hair starts falling off due to the effect of the chemo, most people prefer to just shave it off. No one will want to wake up with hair all over the bed

Music/RadioRe: Davido Was Robbed - Nigerians Outraged At Davido's Loss To Tyla At 2026 Grammys by drtee247(m): 12:45pm On Feb 02
And “channel” will most likely win the 2027 Grammy’s

chatinent:
Wasn't robbed.

The Grammy politics aside, Tyla is a better singer than David.

Fame aside, you guys really comparing Tyla with David?

Just like saying Wizkid sings better than Beyonce. Or saying Odumodu Black is a better rapper than Blaq. Is Odumodu a rapper sef? If you say Waje sings better than Tyla, I won't argue. Or Sia sings better than Beyonce and Rihanna together..but Davido? Please.


I mean, the Nigerian support thingy aside, which of David's song could stand shoulder to shoulder with Chanel?

Here's what Gemini had to say:

Artistry and Musical Style
Tyla: Her sound is a fusion of Amapiano and contemporary Pop/R&B. She is often praised for her sleek, atmospheric production and cohesive sonic branding. Her "better" quality lies in her modern, highly polished "Pop-star" package.

Davido: He is the master of high-energy Afrobeats. His strength is in his ability to create club anthems and wedding hits. Davido’s artistry is defined by longevity and his ability to evolve with the Nigerian sound for over a decade.

Lyrics and Instruments
Lyrics: Davido’s lyrics are often celebratory, lifestyle-focused, and repetitive—designed for the dancefloor. Tyla’s lyrics tend to be more sensual and straightforward Pop. Neither is traditionally considered a "lyricist" in a poetic sense, but Davido has a deeper catalog of narrative-driven songs (e.g., Assurance).

Instrumental: Tyla’s music heavily utilizes the Log drum (the heartbeat of Amapiano), giving it a distinct, trendy feel. Davido’s music uses a broader range of highlife-inspired percussion and live horns, reflecting a more traditional Afrobeats foundation.

Fame and International Appeal
International Appeal: As of 2026, Tyla holds a slight edge in recent "Global Pop" momentum. She is a two-time Grammy winner in the Best African Music Performance category, winning in both 2024 (for Water) and 2026 (for Push 2 Start).

Fame: Davido has more massive overall statistics and historical weight. With over 3.5 billion Spotify streams and a decade of sold-out arenas globally, his "OG" status is undeniable. However, Tyla has managed to top international Pop charts (like the Billboard Hot 100) more rapidly than Davido’s solo work.

Meaningless and "Nonsensical" Lyrics
Both artists have faced lighthearted criticism for lyrics that prioritize "vibes" and phonetics over literal meaning:

Davido: His 2017 hit "If" includes the line "30 billion for the account," which, while iconic, was often joked about as being unrealistic at the time. He also uses playful onomatopoeia like "Gararara" and "Shakara owe," which are rhythmic fillers rather than dictionary words. His song "Kante" (2023) has also been cited for its "vibe-over-vocab" approach.

Tyla: Critics often point to her viral hit "Water" and the 2026 Grammy-winning "Push 2 Start." These songs focus heavily on repetitive hooks and "Amapiano ad-libs" that serve as rhythmic instruments rather than deep lyrical messages. In many Amapiano tracks, the lyrics are secondary to the "groove" of the log drum.

Don't also forget most Nigerian artiste farm streams cos they feel it measures popularity that's why you can sing nonsense without consequences. For example, the song Davido sang about Gehgeh is purely meaningless.

David gives hit with more Nigerian appeal than the international community unlike Tyla. And Tyla is an industry doll to the Grammy founders too.

Make una talk true too, na ebenzina ebenzina nzogbu nzogbu una want make e use win the Grammy? Or na Omah Lay part where he uses sonorous tunes that's safer not understood to speak disjointed words finding rhymes? At least, when Tyla uses jargon, you understand the meaning...just like you understood "make me water" means "make me wet." Wetin "when I look into her eyes all I see is her waist" mean biko?

David is the inverted Odumodu Black.

Tell me any of David's song that can beat Water by Tyla..let's not Push to Start the latest Chanel.

Foreign AffairsRe: "I Could Have Beaten Donald Trump If I Stayed In The Election" - President Biden by drtee247(m): 9:33pm On Dec 29, 2024
Namaster:
We'll NEVER know.

But ONE thing is certain:
He'd have performed BETTER than Harris did.

The Democrats put too much trust in American people. They believed that they were better people than they actually are.

Harris had to FIGHT against 2 MAJOR rot in the American society:
1. Racism.
2. Sexism.

Outside of those 2, there is NO metric in which Donald could outperform Harris.

They called her dumb until she completely DECIMATED Trump in the debate.
She destroyed him so much, Trump RAN from a second debate.
grin

But Americans, including the Dems who abstained from voting, would rather have a RAPIST PEDOPHILE with 34 FELONY convictions than vote for a black woman.

Trump is ALREADY shitting on his voters by changing his stance on immigration.

His voters say they DON'T want Indians on H1B visas taking their tech jobs so Trump should BAN it.

Elon Musk says H1B visa is good and Trump should EXPAND it.

They attacked Musk. But Trump weighed in to say Elon Musk is RIGHT.

grin

Consequences are coming.
She is not BLACK.. she is more of Indian

FashionRe: Katangua Market by drtee247(m): 9:01am On Oct 28, 2024
MikeMicheal:
Firstly, go early in the morning before 9am, make you no buy leftovers.
Also don't dress too much, else they will see you as a bigboy with cash and inflate prices.

Also, be prepared because those boys in the market, will keep disturbing you that "wetin you wan buy? i get am"
Most of them are just affiliate, they take you to sellers and get a percentage, the percentage they will get from seller will make seller increase price for you.
grin

Now if in doubt about size test the cloth you want to buy before payment, because once you pay, you have successfully bought it. No refund of money grin


Lastly, if you dont like the wears in a particular stand, dont be shy to drop it and move elsewhere.
This is important, make you no use shame buy wetin you no fit wear.
Once again, if you dont like the goods you are given at a particular stand. DONT BE SHY TO CHECK ELSEWHERE, NA YOUR MONEY!

PRICES OF USED WEARS(last time i tried)
SHIRTS:
First grade Shirts cost 1000/1500.
They will call as high as 5k per shirt, if you fall, Otilo.. grin
JEANS:
Just prepare 1500 per quality used jean, it all depends on grade sha. A very low grade can be 300 sef .
As i said above those werey will call high price like 5k above.
BOXERS:
300 for good ones.
SOCKS:
150 highest.
CLEAN FITTED SUIT:
2500
the suit usually come alone, na you go find trouser and shirt grin
OFFICE SHOES:
Fake used: 1500 highest
quality used: 3000
If you sabi shoes, you go know the fake and the quality.

GENERAL RULE: If you dont know the price of a good in thst market, Whatever price they call first cut am into half.
They call 4k, you cut am to 2k and start pricing grin



Lastly, beware of pickpockets, some people are just there to steal.
Some will stand beside you like they are also buying, omoh! your pocket na the target grin

Dressing too well is like screaming GUYS I HAVE MONEY for you to thief! grin

Omoh! I don too type. lol
good luck
lol how person suppose dress now… I want to go to Lagos next week.. I’m sure prices of things will have changed, this is 2024 tinubu era

PhonesRe: 10 Useful Iphone Apps You Need To Have In 2023 by drtee247(m): 1:42pm On Dec 23, 2023
dominzy:
In today's fast-paced world, our smartphones have become indispensable tools that help us navigate through the demands of everyday life. Among the various smartphone options available, the iPhone stands out for its exceptional user experience and the vast array of apps at our fingertips.

Whether you're a productivity enthusiast, a photography aficionado, or someone seeking to enhance your overall well-being, the App Store offers a treasure trove of useful applications designed to make your life easier and more enjoyable.


1. Widgetpod

The WidgetPod app offers a dynamic widget experience for music playback on iOS 16, providing support for both Apple Music and Spotify. It presents customization options for various aspects, such as displaying specific buttons and altering icon visuals. Throughout my two-week usage, I encountered no issues, as the app performed smoothly without any noticeable impact on battery life.

It also has the Ability to play local music offline through third-party apps and also Support macOS, enabling the same widget design on desktop.

Pros: The app's familiar design language facilitates effortless customization for users.

Cons: The absence of an organized structure for different widget sizes within the app makes customization and discoverability less convenient.

2. Halide
I enjoy introducing new and updated apps that bring fresh and exciting functionalities. One such app is Halide, which provides manual control over your iPhone's camera and surpasses the capabilities of the default camera app.

You can rely on Halide's Macro feature to capture stunning close-up shots of unique subjects. Additionally, its exclusive portrait feature enhances object identification with captivating visual animations. For anyone seeking professional-level photography on an iPhone, Halide is an essential addition.

Pros: Unlike many apps that become cluttered with unnecessary features, Halide thoughtfully incorporates each functionality. The new updates showcase a minimalistic design, utilizing ample white space to deliver a unique user experience that aligns perfectly with the iPhone's aesthetic.

Cons: On smaller devices such as the iPhone 12 Mini, the interface may feel slightly dense.

Also, Halide offers a useful option called "Prevent Facebook Spying," which removes location data from your photos when shared with any Facebook-owned apps. You can find this option in the app's Advanced section within the Settings menu.

3. Timing

There are instances when all-in-one apps prove to be highly practical, and the timing.is app is a perfect example. Productivity revolves around effective planning and adhering to schedules, which necessitates combining calendar events and tasks. With the timing.is app, you can accomplish precisely that.

This app presents an all-inclusive solution for planning tasks, offering a fresh perspective on using both tasks and calendar events to enhance productivity. It seamlessly synchronizes with your calendars and integrates with the Reminders app on your iPhone. Additionally, it provides customization options, and the best part is that you don't need to create any accounts to utilize its features.

Pros: The app's inclusion of features like time blocking and gap management elevates it to the status of a professional calendar and planner app.

Cons: Although I appreciate its unique design language, I do feel that it deviates slightly from Apple's HID guidelines, which creates a sense of disconnection from other iOS apps.


Additional info: Within the app's main user interface, you can swipe down from the middle of the screen to reveal a year progress bar. This bar displays a percentage to indicate how much of the year has already passed, providing you with a quick overview of the year's progress.
