You dey joke right?

Haven't we had enough of 2face's: Yes oooo. Notin dey happen? Now na "kokomaster" be our nightmare.

How can you say D'banj doesn't make good music??
Have you ever tried listening to his beats??

Abeg, dem dey find you for Romance Section.

Alcohol doesn't solve any problems. . .but then again. . .neither does milk.

Dbanj has the touch!!! Everything he does just oozes class.
I dunno why he kissed Genevieve though . . . he'll prolly get banned by those publicity-hungry Censors' Board.

But I like the African thing he manages to put in all his songs, flying the flag and still making good music.
Can't wait for the next album.

Da Grin knows just when to apply his rhymes and his rhyme patterns are world-class.[/quote]Hehe . . . what does Modenine have to do with this??

Dagrin's flow was top-notch though, especially with the way he always need to join series of Yoruba words to do a multie.
It's easier with English that has a limitless vocabulary . . . but with Yoruba, it's all about improvising.

hermosa:
Somebody wants to die
Thou shall not be afraid
For the terror by the night
Or for the arrow that fly by day
Or for the pessimist that walk in the dark
Or for the destruction
A thousand shall fall by my side
And ten thousand all around me

Haha! 2009!
Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, lord!
Why do they keep pushing me (2x)
Oh, oh, oh lord
Maybe they want to die!
Somebody wants to die!

They call me M.I Abaga
J town rapper
Jesse Jagga  broda
You can’t do me nada!
2009 M.I rocking at the MAMAs
You can buy my cd and rock it with your mama
Me don’t want know drama!
I’m learning to ignore sh*t
Nobody comes close
Is sorta like an orphan
Yes they a little fly
M.I is an orbit!
Making more green than an orchard
Fork it!
M.I Abaga, go check my data
my cd come boom shaka laka Alaba
I’ve been on tour
They never Cross River like Calabar
The only way you cold is your careers like cadaver
Don’t even bother
Beneath us like Rafa
Kickin soccer proper like Kaka
Rule over the  game[b] Sepp Blatter[/b]
Chocolate city scatter
My bery very sweet, plus I’m black!

Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, lord!
Why do they keep pushing me (2x)
Oh, oh, oh lord
Maybe they want to die
Somebody wants to die!

Yo, ladies and gentlemen, Ice.  Prince.
Yo, I’m Ice Prince Armani
J-town’s grammy
Coming out fresh
In my Georgio Armani
Used to be broke a*s, couldn’t get a penny
But now I’m in the house
Cleaning out like a nanny
Zoom like a vespa
Sweet like nectar
I’m not saying I’m the best
But I’m closer than the rest
homey and grinding defining
I was j town’s number 1 before M-spoke signed me
Key to the label
Imagine all my cream
Add p to the table
They wonder why I’m on this
Dumb a*s question
A little bit of me
Be the key to ignition
Don’t even bother
You ain’t spittin’ proper
I’m in the top 10
And my single never dropa
I’m the mother sucker
Star lyrics like a lager
I bomba klak a mic
Like rocker
Blah!

Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, lord!
Why do they keep pushing me (2x)
Oh, oh, oh lord
Maybe they want to die
Somebody wants to die!

They messing with Chocolate City’s logo
these niggas want promo
they standing way too close they so homo
they need to clean up their flow
they need omo
I make money, money’s my motto
Yes I do eat beef,
but right now I’m fasting!
You don’t even want it anyway
Why you actin’?
Niggas want drama, I’mma holla when I’m casting
I’m ever green, ever ready, ever lasting
M.I anticipated like detox
I never falls stay on my feet like reebok
competition distant
I’m run like they see cops
M.I, Jags, Ice flier than three hawks
and I’m so hip hop
I’m like a beat box
Y’all hatas are chicken
Y’all are peacocks
Sweet rappers y’all about to get peeled off
I talk a hard game
They really feel soft
This is real talk
I had to restart
And now I’m back from there
To make their knees knock
I’m the a b c
And y’all even d blocks
I’m the bars, I’m the chain
I’m seeing open doors, promoting tours
Closing bars smoking four fours
While y’all grabbing open doors
Hate on my style hate on my flow hate on my vocal cords
You setting a bad man loose
Like they open doors
I know life is a b**ch
And I’m a loco yours
I’m dating smoking broads
You driving broken cars
Y’alla niggas biting lines and poaching bars
Coming at me is the only way that you’ll ever approach a star
m.i finito
never be an equal
never be a sequel
such a huge ego
and I will never crash I’m no Sosoliso
I got Chocolate city to handle my legal
I’m a plane, I’m a rocket, I’m an eagle
and it’s plain how I rock the dessert eagle
It’s what I call my microphone
It’s so evil
How could sound bite from murdering people
How can you ever try to fight with steven seagal
I’m in the throne room starring through the peephole
And I’m so Rick Ross the boss like hugo
I’ve got that new flow
I’m like blue fro??
I’m on your mind it’s so unusual you know
I’ll let the rest know
I’m the threshold
The fresh bro
The S.O, f l y
The f .Y.I best know
Uh huh, you can’t stop me

Somebody somebody somebody wants to die!!
p.s some parts are missin,  if you do know the words help me fill 'em in! thanks!

one piece of advice for my boy Ice Prince Do. Not.Get.Involved!!

Just corrected a few of the lines . . . nice work though.
I'd been looking for the lyrics for ages.

[quote author=tosinaded@ link=topic=441557.msg5999638#msg5999638 date=1273006343]baba oro [/quote]Nah that one you see??
You no see 'Coming at me is the only way that you’ll ever approach a star'??

If you nor get enough money to pay for space shuttle go space, make you just diss M.I

Are you guys being serious . . . come on, M.I has graduated from face-me face you disses jare.
At a Jay-Z status, you stop doing that even Modenine doesn't do them ones any more.

Now how can you guys be counting 'you're short I'm the ladder to the top as disses'.
Na wa ooh . . . so I can go make a diss song now and drop Primary 5 yabbing and y'all will rate me??

Although I don't respect M.I for going on to diss after stating it clearly that you're not taking her serious, but Kelly Rowland was wack on that track abeg.
The only thing she got right was delivery and we know 10 of her won't touch M.I in that aspect.

[quote author=tosinaded@ link=topic=441557.msg5997594#msg5997594 date=1272986436]sum peepd still doubt his lyrical prowess?
it amazes me [/quote]Some people cannot 'identify' with M.I as a rapper.

@Rhymestein

Why you come dey give me your Wale Adenuga Production for here??
Na me send you make you go dey play ball for streets when you suppose dey go school??

M.I was already a star for two years before coming to Benin . . . Asawana go light you if you lie for there.
Half the songs on Talk About it were already released in his first album and everyone in Benin knew them.
But still he waited two years before stepping into Benin . . . FACT!!!

Modenine was never in Benin before 2006, he already won two Channel O Awards before stepping into Benin.

Dagrin had only one really popular album, according to my own sources (cousins and friends in Benin), he was already up there for a rapper in Benin.
He obviously would have touched there if he hadn't died so early.

Now, you bringing tribalism into this is just daft . . . you chatting bollocks and trying to use tribalism to save your face.

mahal:
Episode20: Oh my God!!!

Chei!!! Was it that good??
18:00 Rule.

@Rhymestein

Exactly . . . when did Crowd Mentality become a radio hit??
M.I toured Africa before he reached Benin . . . he was in Tanzania and Kenya with a whole year of banging hits before that.
Does that mean he wasn't popular in Benin??

I bin think say you go even lie about Modenine own sef, na that trap I bin set for you.

Dagrin released C.E.O in 2009, to say he wasn't popular when I know a lot of people in Benin that were banging his jams is still a big surprise.
Anyways, you've still not disproved what my guys in Benin said about the Owo Ati Swagger guy being popular in Benin.
You don't know this but I'm half Edo, so all this tribal B.S wey you dey pull na stunt.

@hax

I'm not going to let this lead into one of those long topics where the basis of the whole debate is lost.

Some rappers don't like getting owned on tracks, J.Cole has publicly come out to say that he wouldn't let himself get murked, LL Cool J famously rewrote his verse in order not to get murked on a track, Nas used Renegade as his one of the few punchlines on Ether . . . people talk about them, I don't know what exactly you're getting at.
Even songs like Run This Town where all three verses were self-service, everyone came out to say Kanye killed it.

Most collaborations are friendly battles, I don't care if you don't see it like that, most rappers do, most fans do, most critics do too.
Nine times out of ten most rappers would rather they beat the Eminems and J. Coles on tracks, and nine times of of ten it turns out to be a better song, but that doesn't remove the fact that you got owned on that track.

Nigeria beating Brazil in 96 doesn't make us better than them, but does that mean it won't be discussed at length??
You're just making a big thing out of sumn you can't change . . .

You justifying the fact that you talked about A Star is Born is hilarious in itself, it's almost like you're sorry for doing it . . . I'm not pissed with you son.

If Drake kills J. Cole on that track, it will always be brought up anytime someone brings up the topic of who's better.
Each time Nas' compared to anyone, people always bring up The Firm.

obinna5000:
To me, if an actor or actress portrays a role impressively, then he or she is oscar worthy. I wonder when actors like Brad Pitt, Will Smith or Johnny Depp will receive an oscar.

Has anyone seen the 2010 remake of "A Nightmare on Elm Street"? A friend of mine that has seen it said that it was wack. I no know sha.

I'm not sure but I think Brad Pitt has one . . . Will Smith has just been a victim of bad timing of his best movies.
I remember seeing Forest Whitaker(Last King of Scotland), Leo Di Caprio(I think for Blood Diamonds or sum other movie), and Will Smith on his Pursuit of Happiness year and I was like 'WOW!!! Even I wouldn't give it to you man'.

I really don't get Johnny Depp, I don't understand . . . if Sweeny Todd and Jack Sparrow don't get you an Oscar . . . nothing else will, promise.

Right now, she knows better so it's going to be a tad difficult for her to keep living on 10 quid per month.[/quote]Exactly . . . the only reason she's complaining now is because she got smart.
It'll be much more sensible to turn that naivety into wisdom not smartness.

The only factors that have changed since then is time, so why can't she continue??

It's a chess game, she's obviously not as strong as her mum, so she needs to back down.
Once she's a dependant . . . she'll have a voice and her mum will know she has to chill.
Then she can even threaten a legal battle against her mum if she wants to reclaim all what she gave her in the past if she wants.

Hehehe . . .

If she has endured this for two years, she might as well endure it for another two years and get her passport.
It's not like she's not being fed or sumn, all she needs to do is to get her passport and fight back.

This is more about being smart than anything else . . . let her see it as an investment into her thing.
Besides the whole rights thing is not as easy as we think it is, at the end of the day, she could deprive herself of some things for the common good, instead of raising dust that's settled for two years.

I'd advice her to just chill till her status is settled before taking any steps, because a mum this evil will prolly have a way to battle with her if push comes to shove.

I wonder who I'm a groupie to. . . .I have a crush on Jay-Z?? **Dies** Or is it Drake? Who did I 'adore' on this thread? You stay making zero sense.
Well, I understand you making stuff up to save face after all it is a "teenybopper" who called you out on your BS. You'll get over it, though.

Hehehe . . . you actually think I take you serious?? More deluded than I thought.
You, kay2900 and hax said share the same point of view, compare my replies to both of you

Anywayz . . . there are different traits of a groupie in my definition, pick the one that best suits you.

@hax
You're making it sound like it's a crime to be trashed on a track.
I don't need a hiphop history lesson to tell me that being with a good rapper inspires you.
I did mention Rick Ross holding his ground against Nas didn't I??

Now if you're going to feature a rapper like Eminem on a track, you know it's going to make the song better, but you also know there's a chance that you'll get outshined on the song . . . some people are ready to take the risk, cool.

You yourself talked about J.Cole tearing Jay-Z apart on A Star is Born, isn't Blueprint III still the biggest rap album of last year??
Stop making a mountain out of a molehill abeg, people get murked on songs, it's talked about for ages, but it doesn't take anything away from anyone, but to say we need to stop discussing it is plain B.S.

Collabo battles are among the most heavily discussed topics in hiphop, it takes more than you to take it away.
Now if Drake does a collabo with J. Cole, he will most likely get trashed, and that might be the end of all the talk about who's better . . . and it will most definitely be discussed, there's nothing wrong with that.

Dagrin left a very very very large void to fill, whoever steps into it go try!

Omo nor be only you oh, sharp guys nor get time to wait till Christmas
Na that time mumsy go come dey tell you say she wan help you 'keep am'.

One thing I'm sure of is that Dagrin proved that it's possible to do be up there even with the language barrier.
Now that people know it's possible, they'll keep trying till we finally see someone even better.

arkinses:
lol. . . kolo is kolo in english. That bar wicked o! Use ATM break money into lesser denominations inside kolo. Chea!
