NigerDelta state of mind-The second season

NDzone~~ yea ~this is-hustle-ground/  the-puzzle-lounge/
it's a tussle/~muscles rustle like Russell.S just'ta purse-a-pound/
just a pass around town/ the sound/ of deep-hassles-drown/
frown in they heart disguised by the way they clown/

U cant Devour a NDboy cos they T[i]aste funny[/i]/
got the illest comedians out there who tryna make money/
they get paid wit oil money/ not funny/ this aint no bugs bunny/
dudes bled for dat oil~so shud theirs be called blood money?/

Pianos only got Black keys here ~~ Whites Slip, like babies get Kid-Napped/
major plans in the Pipeline~ but pipes go up in smoke/ blasted~beat that!
The hustle/ n struggle/ to Muscle/ the Nozzle/~~a huge Hurdle/
and when "Kasala burst"!~NDboyz dont "shock in" heads like Turtle

like Civilians they get no Attention/ pple confusin they intentions/
but 1ce they pick up Arms~ the whole nation get tensioned/
truly NDzone the "Heartbeat" of the nation/
they make your heart beat wit[i] Fearful[/i] acceleration/

oil bunkerin' ~~greedy mannerism/ or needed vandalism/
tv's prism/ colorin' the barbarism/ ~~unweeded  standard~isnt?/
Private life distorted so Public property get vandalized/
the zone shud look heavenly if revenue allocation is standardize/

is there hope/ to cope/ pray to the shrine and pope/
oil spill like white linen soaked/ with a bottle of coke
Putridity of the decay will make an Anosmic patient choke/
sh[i]![/i]t is the reason for decade y'all know we "provoke"

gotta be Sharp n Blunt/~~bullets in the air~guy, duck/
Still~we gon make it~~the ills corrected~See me as a Prophetic doc./
climate report~~behind the Heavy [/i]gloom, there~ [i]"Lights" do lurk/
good lord ~~guess all we all need now is Goodluck/

Good job you're doing especially those who've drop verses already

It's arbitrary . . . that's the whole point, to catch the spammers.
It usually stops long posts, posts with links to other sites, catchphrases like 'make money fast', and many other things like that.
Once a post is spam, it's spam till Seun unblocks it. . . no matter how many times you post.
You just risk getting banned.

PH STATE OF MIND: My Story

wuz born in Delta state,
Dad made a change for Ph~ to get some paper mate,
Okwuta wuz d place,
Eligbam d next one,
kids ridin wheels around n i dont mean a Lexus,
climbin trees,fightin bees,
'egelege' wuz WWE yea we fight for free,
rain rain go away,
rain rain come again,
kpakos ready to ball~under d rain,
stay late?mehn u best sleep at d neighbours'
With Dad at d front door,his whip sharper than razors?
i played with caution,
went to a pre-school to learn precautions,
but i still tasted d whip,
d bitter-sweet memories,we have'em for keeps,
entertainment wuz ill,voltron wuz crack n tite,
neva knew they colours,well d TV's black n white,
but dat wuz fine,
as one TV wuz enough if only there wuz lite,
The boyz all skinny 'cept some fat ones,
the gurls from d beginnin wur d sharp ones,
ready to cry wolf to get wat they need,
that trait still lingers~ask ur chick,
fashion wuz fun check the xmas clothes,
neva played in em
else,well u kno how d story goes!
Much Stories to tell from back in d dayz,
if nostalgia wuz a disease,i'll be down in a grave.

Make i stop dia for now,Lala wher ya own na?

Kaduna mind state

Born in the ND /raised and schooled up in KD
back to when riding on goats was like cruisin in mercedes
Shi*t!! when it heats up it bakes up
even cattles be lookin fed up
throwin stones at red head lizards ~ was our local hunting
the only time we stop was when they stopped nodding
The girls? 4get it, u get a hiss. . instead of a kiss
While hawks be out in the open. . pickin up chics
Back then u curse by throwin 5 fingers
"waka" that's like sayin fuk ya mother
school playground wasn't for no weak clowns/before ya feet-is where we draw  straight lines . .
on da hot sand /cross it- n u gon get a beat down
settin fire to bee hives/ then runnin for dear life
ma nigga got stung twice/ face fuk'd up lookin tysonised
if it aint da heat ~ yo lips n feet be gettin cut by harmattan's knife
even with new cortinas u'd be hard pressed doin da hammertime dance
fulanis with cattle on their nomadic journeys
while Almajiris with chidren beggin for money
back then black n white was the shi*t in ya parlour
better yet wrap da screen ~ with lucozade foil~ to make that shi*t colour(lol)
U ever seen termites build a castle? . .
go up north~but dont trespass if u dont want no hassle
Kaduna was da shi*t then/ till da christians /and da moslems
well y'all know the rest. . . hope we find our new Jerusalem


peace out

Lagos State of Mind (Alagbado)

This is Lagos, the city that's always on the rush
Always ready to hustle from dawn till night fall
We take the lead while other cities follow us
We're the best, a dull man among us is a sharp man in Jos
From Agbado to Campus, we're all out for a race course
Nothing is stopping us till we're blessed with fat purse
Maybe that's why we all fall into one class
Work hard on weekdays, weekend for our flash rides
The rich with Amanda, the rest (poor) with motor bikes (Okada)
From busstops to busstops, thugs are dressesd in Naija flags
Running after yellow buses forcing them to pay tithes
Well-dressed guys walk up to strangers pretending to be pleading for alms
Show any sign of concern you're going to be enemy with your bags
And you've got to thank your star if you escape them without scars
Though we live rough lives, excellence remains our watchword
You're welcome to Lagos, the envy of Lagos New York

Hope I try y'all, easy on the judgement

Wow this is some interesting ish. Nice lines dropped here. Not typed anything in eons but i'd most defo drop a lil something something within the next 48hours or less and seeing a lot of stuff already mentioned i'd try and add a few new stuff. A mix of ma early years and how it went back then would be most appropriate

[font=Times New Roman Unicode]Sup e'rybody. It's been a while. . . nice reppin y'all. Ibime and DBR killed this sh!t. Dayummmm! sick sick sturvs.

Where Im from, non locals get broken in half/

@malc
To think u wrote that under 38mins(d interval btwn both of ur posts) is simply amazing.

am from kogi state the home of the brave
seen my close dogs go by the way of the chrome or the guage
smoking cracks with kanaks with hommies who stay strapped
any wrong moves you make can get your backside clapped
they feel no remorse when you six feet in the dust
cause its obvious we never gonna find peace in this war
politicians quick to equip young kids with a gun
and they give them orders to go finish him off
ignorance and poverty has opened their mind to greed
where the next man will slay his brother for a three square meal
now i sit back and wonder:was it really worth the stress
when you have to look over your shoulder
cause you never know where the bullets gonna come from next
while their seeds are overseas not bothered about reality
of what has befell of our beloved state a calamity
they say youths are the leaders of tomorrow
when we all dead who the Bleep are we now to follow



just a keystyle and its true

@ Mailmalc. . . . thats the most Hip-Hop verse so far. . . .you respected all the rules and still made sense with it. . . . kudos!



Anyway, I call this one Naija State of Mind. . . .



As the homies say/ Maga no need pay . . .
. . but what if that’s the only way/ to pass a lonely day?/
We just tryna get fatter than Pastor OBJ/
So by hook or crook, we’re stacking dough each way!/
Our occupation/ is to rob the nation/
We keep cash under the bed. . . nigga, phuck inflation!!/


Cos here, we laugh at losers/ and clap for looters/
We hustle for Dead Presidents. . . not Yar’Aduas!/
Bandits loot us/ Robbers tax and shoot us/
So we carry gats and lugers. . . to blast intruders!/
We hack computers/ plus we’re mass polluters/
Traffic jams give you Asthma. . . while LASTMA . . . harass commuters!/


Its practical/ to travel to/ Abuja on sabbatical/
And chill in mansions built. . .  with stolen federal capital!/
Up North, niggas is radical/ and violence is sporadical/
cos Christians and Muslims are just incompatible!/
We got soldiers patrolling in tanks/ and controlling the land/
But still, niggas like Boko Haram/ ain’t folding their hand!/


Pay heed to the wisdom/ that corruption eats deep in the system/
The hopeless find peace in religion/ and a reason for living/
But our Pastors are lyrical/ They’ve mastered the syllables/
To collect 10%. . . when you ask for a miracle!/
They prophesy like prophets/ then monopolise the profits/
What I prothletise. . . is that they should be sodomised with objects!/     (It’s logic!)


Chop I chop!. . . but they chop more than their belly takes/
till dem inflate/ come dey resemble heavyweight/
Lecturers are never paid/ so they always demonstrate/
Then we wonder why we’re unable to educate/
How long will this perpetuate?/ I think it’s time to set it straight/
Naija gasto elevate/ to a level we can celebrate!/

The A-Files (More than just a State Of Mind)


Born to an I-Town Father and a Yoruba Mama
So people called me half-caste like i was Obama
From a hood where a baby's first words are 'Up Nepa'
Even as a youngin i was all about ma chedda
And naah i ain't talking bout that Man U player
But back in the days we rocked them partings and them layers
Clowning in the classroom reading Ikebe Super
Looking Fly in Bugle Boy fooling round with Lego toys
Feeling all fresh when i took baths with Almond-joy
Got back from school ma t.v looking like a rainbow
Waiting for the day ma Mom's would hook us up with cable
Playing table soccer on ma dinner table
Trips to the village got me feeling like a pirate
Heart in ma mouth everytime we crossed the water
You could drown whether you where Kpako or a Butter
Had ma first Aspen right before i turned ten
Tried to score a girl so i watched em playing ten-ten
With no dame all a lil nigga had was Brick game
Used to chill at Sapele where boys no dey hear Kpele
Thugged out militants with no shoes like a Cele
Phock around and you'd get a gasoline shower
Military era houses burning by the hour
Hardly had money but they did have the power
Engaged in Mortal Kombats. Watch them Street Fighters display their Killer Instinct
Woke up at night just to watch some Basic Instinct
Twas the closest thing to mojo so i watched it solo
Battled on Nintendo but niggas was v.aginal
Kabal & Ken was all it really took to break their Spinal
Like a Cup Final we balled in the corner till a dumb nigga kicked the ball in the transformer
Or heard the school bell chime and did the Optimus prime
Past memories keep streaming like a Tivo
Part 2 coming up like a home video
