7 year no be beans... So I see why it's difficult for you to move on

But logically, 7 years is already a long time to wanna try new people...

I mean you've been screwing the same girl for 7 years and yet you're sounding like a 16 years old kid in the first few months of falling in love....

Besides, you admitted she'd been screwing other niqqas since the breakup, eww!... The disgust alone should kill whatever feelings you have for her

You really need to get your sh'it together by distracting yourself, get a very busy job and when you have the chance try and socialize, get another girl and start devoting your time to this new girl and watch how your ex memories will gradually fade into oblivion

Don't be a p""ussy

Celebrities / Re: Mohbad: Dammy Krane Tackles Naira Marley by maddman: 3:44pm On Sep 20, 2023
samuelson06:
I'm not a Naira Marley fan but up till now no one has been able to tell us how exactly Naira Marley and/or Sam Larry killed Mohbad.

People can quarrel within themselves but that doesn't mean if suddenly one of them gets hurt then the other is the cause simply because they quarreled.

In all of these, no one is looking at the side that the parents rushed to bury the boy. Everybody keeps pointing accusing fingers at Naira Marley. This isn't how to approach a case. We should be neutral.

No mind the yeye people jare... Nigerian youths are really emotional beings bereft of critical thinking and this is why they keep electing stupid leaders.

No Christian parent would bury their child within 24 hours of his death especially when they feel he was murdered.

Celebrities / Re: Enugu, Oyo Radio Stations Ban Naira Marley Songs Over Mohbad Death by maddman: 8:37pm On Sep 19, 2023
othermen:
I feel terrible that the mob mentality in Nigeria has obfuscated the true underlying issues that demand attention. In a related incident involving Burna boy where he sought a romantic interest, only to find out she was already with someone else at the venue. When she rebuffed Burna's advances, he flew into a rage and had her boyfriend shot in the club. Shockingly, there was no substantial public outcry, no legal action taken, and no one even hinted at pulling Burna's music from the airwaves. We continued to embrace Burna without reservation.

When Burna's aggressive behavior went largely unaddressed, it sent a message that such actions were tolerable within the industry. This lack of accountability set a dangerous precedent, allowing for a culture of unchecked aggression and intimidation to persist. If the industry had taken a firmer stance against violence and intimidation, it might have discouraged such behavior, potentially altering the course of events that led to Mohbad's untimely death and so here I equally argue that we hold individuals accountable for their actions, regardless of their status or influence within the music industry, but holding them accountable is not the same as having a mob mentality.

Shifting gears, Naira Marley operates a record label, and the artists under his umbrella are bound by contracts. Even the most illustrious stars have encountered conflicts with their record labels, as exemplified by Michael Jackson's scathing remarks about Tony Montana or Sony Music, the entity he was associated with, which he likened to a 'devil'.

Admittedly, Naira Marley and his associates likely had vested interests in Mohbad, whom they had invested in. Undoubtedly, they may have exerted some form of pressure on Mohbad to ensure compliance. Nigerians contend that these tactics may have contributed to Mohbad's untimely demise, and it's on the contention that Naira Marley has been sentenced already. No one is taking a step back to do possible re-assessments, or having the imperative not to subordinate an approach to the situation that uses a fair and impartial perspective. Nigerians forget that jumping to conclusions without comprehensive investigation risks perpetuating a cycle of vengeance and violence, that will potentially lead to even more tragic outcomes. They forget that when you take drugs away from someone having substance issues, their allegations then should be re-examined before using it as a basis for constituting guilt as substance abuse could impact a person's perception and memory, potentially leading to exaggeration or distortion of events. In the case of Mohbad, there is also a recording where what he alleged of Marlian music, he alleged of his wife. Of coz, he is dead and to suggest of his compromised state of mind having led him to misinterpret situations, inadvertently assigning greater significance or intent to actions that may have been far less malevolent might seem impossible to you, but did you not think so when he was alive, that changes in his weight, slurred speeches, slurred movements, allegations that he had withdrawal issues and possibly neglected his important obligations and commitment, had a sense of hopelessness in some of the videos evidencing his state of torment, had worsening mental health conditions, and possible health issues were all related to his substance usage? These were physical signs, psychological signs, behavioural signs, physical health issues, and withdrawal symptoms that are also associated with those now alleging maltreatment from Marlian Music.

Mohbad's passing doesn't preclude us from examining his state of mind especially if done with empathy and a commitment to seeking the truth and avoiding a re-occurrence. and such assessment does not diminish his experiences which is evident in the videos, but how about we admit that to understand the context of such videos is important to making judgments that could have significant consequences. Due process is a cornerstone of any just society and in ours, it appears justice is served in unfairly vilifying individuals.

If you disagree, so why is it not important to consider whether Mohbad's struggle with substance abuse played a significant role in his tragic trajectory, impairing his ability to fulfil his obligations to the Marlian record label? And that this, in turn, compelled Naira Marley's' camp to resort to increasingly forceful tactics. It's worth noting that Sam Larry, who may have one time been the source of Mohbad's drugs, likely exerted similar pressures on Mohbad, to recover the pay for the supply he made to him. This is purely speculative and not an assertion of fact, however, such speculation may be relevant in the context of understanding the video evidence depicting altercations between them. Why would you not think of possible motivations behind the conflicts captured in those videos? and yet make judgments while denying yourself any insight into the power dynamics, dependencies, and tensions that may have been at play. How ridiculous, but you believe instead that NDLEA at the behest of Naira-Marley administered a harmful substance to Mohbad and yet it is propagated without any slight scrutiny. Not a scrutiny at the timeline, which defies all logic because of coz, Mohbad's apprehension occurred during a period when he was known to maintain a cordial and seemingly unproblematic relationship with other members of the music label. Yet we go on, hinging on the notion that his drinks were tampered with as he was made to gulp a liquid substance that looks like water and we buy into it willingly suspending all rational thought and replacing it with an unfounded narrative that serves only to vilify Naira Marley caring not that it is not only implausible, but it defies all reason. Why would anyone resort to such an elaborate and risky scheme, and for what purpose would such an extraordinary lengths serve using an institution designed to combat drug-related issues, as the backdrop for such a clandestine act of poisoning Mohbad? If there were nefarious intentions, there are countless other, far more inconspicuous locations where such an act could have taken place, and easily done, because at the time, Mohbad was good with Marlian associates.

How ridiculous, it's more difficult to think it was Mohbad's lifestyle choices that led to his downfall and much easier to join the mob in thier fervor to lay the blame squarely on Naira Marley, and they do so insufficiently justifiably on his questionable history. That this is the case is a lamentable indictment of an entertainment industry and country that appears to be using Naira Marley as a convenient scapegoat.

The issue demanding attention is the complex web of factors contributing to Mohbad's tragic demise. This includes not only the intimidating tactics from both Naira Marley and Sam Larry, but also Mohbad's own struggles with substance abuse. The larger concern is how these elements intersected and ultimately led to the unfortunate outcome. It's important to recognize the broader systemic problems within the entertainment industry, such as the power dynamics between artists and record labels, and the potential for exploitation or coercion, but it's more important to address the issue of substance abuse, objectification of the female bodies which is glorified in their music.

Additionally, there's a need to address the public's response to such incidents, which has an history of overlooking or downplaying serious misconducts, until there is a fatal outcome.

The tactics of intimidation have taken a concerning turn, now directed towards Naira Marley and Sam Larry. Influential figures like Bella Shmurda, and others that stand to benefit from violence, have gone so far as to call for the lynching of Naira Marley and Sam Larry, perpetuating a culture of violence that threatens to claim even more lives. It's imperative to recognize that in our mourning for Mohbad's tragic passing, our grief may blind us to the fact that allowing such a situation to persist will not lead to a better society free from exploitation, intimidation or harassment. Instead, it is likely to breed further weaponry and violence within our communities.

Furthermore, Mohbad's peers and individuals seeking to establish their presence on social media platforms have inadvertently fostered unrealistic expectations of law enforcement. The police investigation, when conducted impartially, will likely exonerate Naira Marley while uncovering the role that substance abuse played in Mohbad's demise. This truth may be a difficult pill for many to swallow, as there is a strong desire for a scapegoat in Naira Marley. Succumbing to this desire, however, will only perpetuate a cycle of violence that will claim even more lives. It is crucial to approach this situation with a clear and rational perspective, seeking justice without resorting to further harm.

Damn! This is one really good submission on this issue.

A breath of fresh air from the uncritical mobbishness that has seized this forum and Nigeria at large.

Kudos!

You don't understand. The so called boss understands the need for a "strong mind" because the game is very hard and not for weak-minded fellows that will give up after a month or two of pushing hard without any success.

This ain't about rituals. If you're going into yahoo hoping to become a millionaire overnight, it's not for you... you might be disappointed. Yahoo requires passion, consistency, perseverance and some measure of luck. No human head or blood needed.

As a HK owner you'd lose money if you take in weak-minded individuals that will only eat your food daily and abscond once the reality sets in. You need serious people with the heart of a lion, people that can help you make money. That's how every boss thinks.

Romance / Re: Do You People Still Chase spoiled liability Girls? by maddman: 11:20pm On Oct 07, 2022
Wealthbrain22:
I have noticed that the so called “fine girls” are filled with drama. They want you to chase them and beg them and notice them, basically they love attention. They will do anything to make you think they like or want you just so you chase them and they can feel like they are still the “queen” or whatever delusions they have in their head.

For me I either just go for runs girls that will give me serx, or any girl that is hardworking and doesn’t think she is one “queen b” that has sense. I don’t think it’s worth it to keep bloating the egos of these so called “beautiful girls” , they will make you a senior man start behaving like a child all because they are playing their nonsense childish games. I never chase, if you’re a smart independent woman, you will see my value and I won’t have to do much before we become a thing, not some spoiled brat with 100 men on their dm expecting me to start chasing them like their pvssy is made of gold, God forbid.

The best women are not the ones with long lashes and fake hair, they are natural and hardworking and if you see them you will know. You will enjoy talking to them, not these spoiled attention seeking rats

I agree with everything you wrote especially that 'making a grown man act like a child' part. Once I mistakenly come across any girl that thinks she's worth two lives because of her looks and the numerous dolts that give her attention, I put 'em where they belong -- the blocklist. Those girls are narcissistic, conceited, materialistic, insolent and, to cap it all, boring. If you appreciate deep conversation you're not gonna get it from them. Mostly kids and losers waste their time, energy and resources trying to win their hearts.
