They should be talking about looking into the activities of Lagos house agents and their outrageous charges and not monthly rent.

Asake's Only Me Vs Tuface's Only Me

I just listened to Asaka's song titled, Only Me - the same song whose video portrayed him dressed in priestly vestments with his "co-priests" as they carry out their form of worship as though they are on a mission to outdo Tinubu who has remained undefeated in the art of arranging fake priests and bishops.

After listening to the song, what I said immediately was, "Where is the song, has it started?"

I don't know about you, but the song is so empty (and this is me, not having the right words to describe how wack it is).

The song started with:

"We get money-money, we get money" (He said this almost like 30 times in the 2:45 minute song. You can go and count it if you doubt me.)

Then, in what appears to be the verses, all I kept hearing was:

Automatic,
traffic
I'm classy,
Make dem give me space
put body
collateral damage
Only me

Then, he went back to "We get money-money..." until the song ended.

What a song!

Walahi, una dey try. How do you listen to such a song and your IQ is not affected?

If you don't understand how wack the song is, try to compare it with 2 Baba song of 2010 which has the same title "Only Me".

I want you to listen to just one verse of that song by 2Baba:

🎶If to say na just me
I'll be living like I don't care
Live my life unto no body dey here
If na just me I'll be doing anyhow
Because nobody go dey there to challenge me
Nobody supernatural
Live versus spirit of the carnvial
The personality no matter at all
Individuality cannot make us tall
I sing I sing for all y'all
Don't let anybody push you to the wall
Na community na in make us tall
Secret society na in break us all
I don't want to be talking like a preacher at all
I no want to do as I sabi pass all
I know say eno be everybody e sabi play ball
But arise o compatriot if Nigeria call
So make you just dey do your thing make I do my thing
Live and let living instead of to be feeling like a king
On top of nothing stop the bragging on top the posing
Because you know say all na vanity vanishing🎶

It is now 14 years since 2 Baba dropped that song, and even though it is a secular song, not only is the song evergreen with lots of hard work put into it, the song is so deep that even monks will find it worth listening to.

This is Tuface saying he is "classy" without using the word "classy". He does not need to be shouting "we get money-money" 30 times.

I think there is something wrong with the present standard of songs from some of our so-called Afrobeat singers.

This is the time when the whole world listens to Nigeria and plays Nigeria songs, but what these artists do these days is package empty songs like how Asake did in "Only Me", then get ThankGod Omori to give a high-definition video and cinematography with a little touch of controversy so that it will cause traffic to their page.

This is why I am not surprised about the video. Ask yourself, what really is the connection between the video and the song? Music video is supposed to depict the song, but in this case, the video is unrelated.

That is how you know how empty and wack a song is and also the artist. This is even someone who was once nominated for a Grammy.

The whole theatrics of using the church and things for mass is so that people will watch the nonsense. Unfortunately, it works all the time because as of today, the song is approaching 1 million views on YouTube.

So, while Asake disrespected the church by allowing such mockery, he first disrespected the intelligence of his listeners by packaging empty songs that can reduce people's IQ. All these happen because we allowed it and because we will play and stream it, and because tomorrow, one church minister will even invite him to perform at his or her birthday party.

It is sad!

Ndigbo are among the saboteur. Biafra or death people will support their own.
Ndisaboteur

So many kids on this platform.
Even to read one line is a problem talk more of understanding.

Strafudeen:
Lie

I love nigeria

Good for you.

No be to grab and run away, you fit run am?

It is my turn.

On his Mandate oooooooo

FalseProphet1:
Anyways I see Tinubu resigning before Easter.

This I have seen.

Lol. You be real false prophet.

Even if God come down from heaven and tell Tinubu to resign or die in three days time, he will choose to die there.

Chelsea abeg make una win Mancity.
Please, we Arsenal and Liverpool fans are begging you.

Let's now face our problems

yarimo:
Fake news alerts, ALEX OTTI can't do anything like this in reality.

At your age... Chai

No nah, Yorubas can't unite with the Igbo's to protest against their tribesman. They rather die of hunger and hardship than unite with Igbo and Hausa against their own.

Omo Harvert is useless to Arsenal. He missed that ball. Chai!
Thank God for Saka

And everything goes down to the consumers. The same poor consumers that are shouting and crying Ebi pa wa ooo

Well, Tinubu till 2031.

ezechi24:
😂😂.. ..you sure say e dey sweet you?....pains

It doesn't have to be sweet bro as long as a south Easterner doesn't get in there. Even Boko Haram leadership can take over just as Hamas is doing, as long as an IGBO man doesn't. That's the only thing that matter.

Think9ja:
Na una de cry everyday say things cost, say your fraudster lord and personal saviour for do something. Your fraudster lord and personal saviour will not smell that seat. The fraudster will end up shamelessly teaming up with Atiku to want to defeat Tinubu. But I trust BAT on that one, him go retired both of them forever.

Of course your Lord and personal savior, His Holiness, Saint Ahmed Tinubu Amoda will rule till 2031 after which Shettima will take over insha'Allah.
Yes, we trust him to always rig his way in and to repeat it come 2027. We love the good work he is currently doing and pray God keep him to continue his beautiful work of bettering the lives of Nigerians.
Also, to all those crying Ebi pa wa oooo just to discredit him, may Allah punish them.
Saint Tinubu till 2031

Think9ja:
Your lord and personal saviour will never see the gates of Aso Rock.
Human beings might support injustice because it favours them, our God in heaven does not. Your lord and personal saviour should build a political structure, build and invest in a party, mentor young people and then come back and contest. But no, he wants to ride on the emotions of the dumb asses that call themselves youths. Because he knows he's old and time is running out, the only way is to intensify the new Nigeria bullshit he's selling.

50+ years Sowore is not good to be president but your 63 years old liar is!

De play. Una go cry blood.

Lol. Lesson teachers
We know those already crying blood

MC Oluomo and his boys should go there and vote and thumb print the rest of papers' for APC.

That was offside

Rents are paid by dates and not by Months.
If you paid 17 Sept, it will expire 15 sept next year.

If you allow those wicked agents and landlords saying August, you will lose. If you pay in August, next year, you will be asked to pay in July and another yr in June and they will keep stealing one month money from you.

NikoDeBonAmi:
So as a young bachelor that just moved into a new apartment, a next door neighbor who happens to be a single female brought this bowl of afang soup as a show of warm welcome.

Would you accept it?

Collect it and pay later. That's if you won't continue paying till the day you will pack out

I see

Nawa o

When did the catholic church rejoin CAN? I thought they pulled out sometime ago.

I dislike phone calls. Don't like someone calling me often.
If we talked today, please wait for at least 2 weeks to one month before calling me again.

They don cut Saka wing with yellow card

Zinchenko is the worst person to play against Salah

Yes, as a dictator that he is, I believe you

Nairaland, the number one platform used to promote hate and tribalism among Nigerian youth and tribes.

Just wondering what Nairaland Tribal bigots were using to keep themselves busy all the while Nairaland was down
