@ Lawyerchap

I disagree with you that Omawumi woulda been a better idol. Internationally(Yeah) but West-Africans will buy more than 80% of the album and Omawumi's stuff ain't what they want.

My beef with Rugged is the way he came up.That's what i call a bi*ch-move and that makes him a snitch.See people like Modenine,Freestyle,Saucekid and Gino,their skills made way for them.

Not forgetting Marsha Ambrosius of Floetry.

The track U talkin bout is
"Hustlers"
(feat. The Game)

It's in the album "Hip Hop Is Dead"

The last i heard of him was when he was going to jail and Deathrow was given to a widow by the court coz Suge didn't give her husband his own cut of Deathrow.

Drea,

Please break it down,it's like U speaking like the master

I know him, what next?

Po Deep:
busygirl,
whats wit u & this your 'he's so decent', 'no booty shaking' s h i t?
Apart from his latest album, he's lyrics have been profanity-filled esp. Malcolm ix. So much for d damn decency. U don't know modenine, quit actin' like u do.
@topic, just for d record, I believe modenine is better than ruggedman, not all the way tho.

Tell me where Rugged is better?

jerrymania:
yeah thats real trash!but it makes sense when you give it a rhyme. thats what SauceKid did. at least he spits better dan Rugged

Sure thing

Honestly,Hip-Hop is dying but that doesn't mean u shud listen to a genre u don't like

i never said that timi can't sing. it becomes clear to bme that you read with your eyes closed and your brains shut off. i have admitted severally that timi is a good singer, just one with not a very broad vocal range.

and u guys please shut the hell up with this consistency crap.
you say omawunmi was mimicking, if the competition wasnt about mimicking and seeing how well you can perform the works of other artistes then there would have told them to perform only their songs throughout the competition. or there would have told them tho perform only one song which fits their voice and their style and then the whole nigeria can vote.

what the f**k do you people think was the essence of bringing them out week after week? you think it was to hear them sing the same song or same style of songs week in and week out? it was to test their vocal abilities under varying conditions and across genres. u guys are so stupid you can't even realise that. or was timi not copying phil collins and michael bolton and luther vandross when he performed their songs? because he was bad at copying not much else u people scream consistency. negating the very essence of the talent hunt

timis vocal talent and strength is seriously lacking, limited to only slow, nasal sounding songs. THATS THE TRUTH.

oma showed true talent and vocal versatility in all her songs, making each one her own. she had only one bad performance which was her mary j blidge, which wasnt so bad considering there had 1 week to prepare for 2 songs. but timi had almost three lacklustre appearances, singing the same type of songs week in week out with the only variation or attempt at spice being the cheap theatrics of pulling a girl from the crowd or his downright stupid running off the stage.

kaydee i used to have a high impression of your taste in music, but i guess i was way off. way way off.

for the avoidance of doubt. timi is a good singer, no doubt. but oma is way better.

damn what are we saying, timi can't even sing half as much as JArry the ghana boy, AND YOU ALL KNOW THIS. he sang only one song in top 24 but we were all blown away.

if the judges were going to choose without audience voting, timi would not have smelled top five. it would have been joan jodie, jarry, eric and omawunmi. i can assure u.


well like i said in my previous post for a competition where jarry was voted off because he didnt have fans, and jodie and joan were voted off before jerrylyn and temitayo , then i don't really expect much.


I ONLY WISH WE COULD GET UNOFFICIAL OFF THE RECORD REMARKS FROM THE THREE JUDGES AND THE SONY BMG GUY. OMA WOULD DEFINITELY BE THEIR FAV. I GUARANTEE YOU

THE ONLY REASON TIMI WON WAS BECOS LIKE WE ALL KNOW , THE MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS DONT REALLY KNOW WHAT GOOD MUSIC SOUNDS LIKE. AND THAT MAJORITY VOTED FOR TIMI. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

timi won because he had the general population of mediocre music listeners behind him, while oma had only the few connoiseuers of music behind her. OMA WAS OUT VOTED, NOT OUT PERFORMED

LMAO!!!!! U such a cry baby and a bad loser.Mediocre what?You've got compulsive disorder.I can say Nigerians don't know anything bout what real Hip-Hop is but they know Timi can sing.It's obvious U've not been watching American idol.You fell for all the sexy moves and not her voice coz Jodie's got a better voice.No hype,Timi's talent made way for him.He's just good.He didn't take shots at anyone to get there and he's from a very humble background.About the Top 5,Joan and Jodie were better singers than Omawunmi and the judges keep praising Omawunmi for taking over since Jodie left.You got ERIC in ur top 5?Lol Now i know Ur knowledge of Music ain't broad and general.Stick to Hip-Hop dude.It's obvious you just hatin. Look at their personal songs,na wetin u 4 dey hear be that? Rubbish!

@ raya2j
It's like u read my mind

This shud be in the Jokes forum

simstar:
there's no denying Timi is a great singer!
he is no doubt.
but still(my opinion) i would have prefered it if Oma had won
why?its like this;
if fro example both of them had concerts or better still lets use the shows
with Timi's performance u are sure you're agoing to listen to someone with a good voice sing and thats it, the end!
but with Oma, u get the full package, she has the stage craft, the presence, the aura, lets face it the girl is an entertainer!
thats the difference between Kelly Klarkson and Carrie Underwood. whereas kelly will entertain you with her craft, Carrie is just some one singing with a nice voice.
this is just my opinion though!

Na lie! Timi is far ahead,Timi's got both and better.The only thing she can do more than Timi is mimic any artiste.She's been watching Musicals since birth.Nollywood will be good for her too cos she can copy.

@ Chukky

She be ur girlfriend? She's a jack of all.She tried but Timi is unique in whatever he does.Did u hear their personal song? I think Timi was born to sing.She's versatile is what they say but she does everything like the original singer.It's obvious u've been watching Timi with ur eyes open and ears closed.

luvhenry:
i think we all have different sense of reasoning to me it dosent make sense som bori bobo please lets try and be more creative even our naija music videos are not classy am just tired of everything

Now U sounding like a Nigerian.I ain't too kool bout some wack songs and videos too.I think they need to be more creative too. Not like i'm kool with everythin i see or hear but ur point of view initially held punches.

Viking:
Ruggedman stole the show throughout the duration of the ceremony[Nigeria Music Award], though he did not receive any nomination or award. He acknowledged cheers from the back where he stood all through the event. The girls would not let him be, they made open passes at him.

What more do u expect? His songs are for them girlz who dunno nothin or lil bout Hip-Hop and not for pple who appreciate what real Hip-Hop's bout

Check why i quoted immortal technique,he said things we should be conscious of.We need to cherish what we've got.Not the bad ones oh!

kellorah:
henry your are 100% correct and i'm 100+10% behind you.
it gets on my nerves!!
and these 'lovely' lyrics ACTUALLY sell. i mean, who buys these records? wht encourage these musicians who wake up in the money and the first thing that gets into their heads, they write about?
don't they ever wonder why it's ONLY nigerians who buy their CDs?
plz o, wake up and make universal music so they whole world can benefit from your talents before it's too late.

Because even though we survived through the struggle that made us
We still look at ourselves through the eyes of people that hate us

I used to wonder (I used to wonder) about people who don't believe in themselves
But then I saw the way that they portrayed us to everyone else
That cursed us, then only see the worst in ourselves
blind to the fact the whole time we were hurting ourselves

Wow! That is tight.

Yeah! Neva a fan of those southerners xcept Scarface but i love T.I on that song

@ Menike

It's so kool when U rhyme tight like that.

Abeg, if U see them,they yarn them the truth oh! Too much wack Videos. they should all go to Gino's producer or Infinity's producer now!

Ask Kells the meaning of that

Missy's Under construction's got lots of tracks with meaningless words and it sells.

Nigerians!!!!!!! Who is that saying we should be quiet about their real ages? Have you noticed that we go very far in all Under-17,20,21 and 23 competitions and our Eagles can't go beyond second round at the world cup? Esp Under-17,Na we be baba for there. That's because you subtract 8 or more years from ur date of birth to get ur age

Mikel played in the PRINCIPAL CUP six years ago.I wonder how he's still that young now.

Arsenal Ladies Honors (2006/07 season)

1. UEFA cup winner (Beat Umea Ik in final 1-0 on aggregate)

2. FA Premier League (Premiership) champions, they did not just go unbeaten, they went un-draw (22 wins 0 draw, 0 loss; GF 113, GA 13). They've won it for 4 consecutive times now. 9 in all

3. FA Cup winners (Beat Charlton 4-1 in final) 2 consecutive winners, 8 in all

4. League Cup (Carling), Beat Leeds 1-0 in final. They've won it 9 times

It seems i've decided to stick to our ladies. Dont u think they shld join the premiership?


Chelsea came 7th in the league, Manchester United and Liverpool are not even in the premiership division

Our guys went trophyless, our girls went trophyful
What a man can't do, a woman can do better, innit?

We should get the men strikers to watch them strikers and learn how to score again.Also let Lehman watch how their keeper does it.

Wow, They won every game all season

jejelolatu:
seems we got a lot of crazy dudes here, guess i wd need a helmet nd probably a bullet proof jacket before i state my mega candid opinion. cut d crap fellas, we dnt need this kind of s, t here. thou i cnt blame u guys, what more can u expect frm people who listen to so much abusive and violence inclined lyrics all in d name of RAP. plssss if u really got scores to settle then take it to d ring, that is a very civillised way of blowing eachodas head offffffffffffff. so, wats it going to be?

I think u're speaking in parables.

To be candid,I've heard just one track on the album and that is "No Be God". I'ma get the album soon.

obviously, you've not heard Gino's album and don't much about his spittin'. You contradicted yaself in that post of yours. First it was that gino spits in his mother tongue, now you've quickly retracted that statement claiming you meant pidgin.[/quote]Yeah! U're right but i've heard him spit in pidgin before
[quote author=gbade. x link=topic=44265.msg1127403#msg1127403 date=1179533277]Now let me ask you a question: is pidgin your mother tongue?[/quote]Nah! Can't U see i was replying a post?It's not like U dunno what the guy was tryna say.

Po Deep:
Kaydee, gino dosen't spit in his mutha tongue. I've got his album. FKUCCN TYT!
