I had a nigga-moment when I found this . . .
It's relatively recent, but I loved the song to bits.

Yo . . .I'm about to lose some ajebo points here, but who has these songs; more like our street remixes.

Papa Mama school no dey

The real lyrics are different but this was what was common in schools.

And this one . . .

Thanks you av been a darl :- and nope I aint Edo am Yoruba

I'm half Yoruba and half Edo . . . my dad loved Haruna Ishola and Kollington, my mum loved Victor Uwaifo and Rex Lawson . . . I preferred Victor Uwaifo because he had the whole thing about accepting a guitar from a mermaid, those myths were intriguing to me

Here's Joromi - Victor Uwaifo

Time Na Money - Mike Okri
One of our first pop stars . . . funny how most songs still attempted to pass across the belief in traditional African values

@Eldee

Woah Dude! Did you attend AFSS ikeja

Yep . . . a couple of years.
Chamotex too . .

What year did you leave??

Aiite . . . Ofoka, you need to chill with this B.S.
I'm respecting you and telling you to drop this whole 6thstalker thing before it gets too far.

WHOA!!! I thought Jay-Z's record was here to stay.
Well it's MJ, anything goes

stillwater:
Oya everyone wave your flag.

Funmi Adams----> Nigeria, my beloved country.

MARRY ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Everyone

Please who has sumn from Tee-Mac??

@Javalove
Even though I told you to apologise . . . you didn't properly word it.
You should have let me draft it for you . . .

The only thing you're sorry for is insults to his person . . . and you didn't do it because you're silly, you did it as a overly sentimental reaction to his comments about you favourite rapper.
So you should have said sumn like . . . 'despite the fact that I do not appreciate you throwing insults towards Modenine, I apologise for letting my sentiments push me into retaliating at your person. . . for that I apologise . . .'

Now Rugged man has taken a cheap shot with one sentence on his wall.
I saw it coming . . .

I just want to say that if you dont like a particular artist or his music you dont have to insult the artist or his music cos thats not a way to show love to who ever you do like.God bless us all as we respect each other.

Him dey crase??
If I don't like a music, it's within bounds of my fundamental human rights to say, 'yo, this is wack' . . . or 'Ruggedman always does wack songs'
He just took the opportunity to drag the apology to any length he could.

@Tubabie
Guitar Boy is on Youtube. . .

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=413811.msg5700857#msg5700857 date=1268702837]What Genre is this music?[/quote]Afrojuju. . . basically fast paced Juju music.

kashmo:
Okay, hope you know this joint then cos i asked twice with no reply, "Mo ri oun to dun, eja osan. e ba je n ba baby yen lo."  I can't really remember the full lyrics, but i do know back then it had a scene where KSA was wooing the lady in a party, thereafter, i think they both ended at beach flexing!!

Nah . . . checked, I don't think I have it.

Who remembers that Esse Agesse's pepper soup song? Couldn't find a video.

That's a classic

@All
I've got this collection of Sunny Ade, Paul I.K Dairo and Victor Uwaifo songs . . . if you've got an exact name, just tell me, I might have it

@Chiogo
Come on . . . if you lived with Nigerian parents, they musta forced at least one song on you.

@tubabie
Buyday music without that song wasn't complete. . . Immediately after 'How old Are You Now' . . . my mum would slot in the tape and that's it, fresh prince steps all the way.

@everyone
I dare you to say you didn't love this song
