guys u all have a point, but we must understand that lyrics are the same as poems that tends to influence the listener's or reader's mindsets and actions. For instance, Bob Marley's "Get up and stand up" song invokes an uprising spirit or influence that makes the listener think about his fundamental human rights.

I can hear the drum sound, a sound that reminds us to prepare for the day has come, what Chukwuemeka Odumegu Ojukwu said is becoming, let no man say he was not told, Nigeria is indeed sitting on a keg of gun powder, ready to explode at any time, the more they play games, the more we approach, it will not be too long then the least expected will happen, ALL HAIL BIAFRA! Land of the rising sun.

Lets look at some of the lyrical contents of our Nigerian musicians, How do they try to communicate to the listeners and what are the impact these lyrics make to the generality of music lovers.

Let me set the boat rolling with 9ice and his Gogo Aso, what does this word mean to u.

If na true sey Nico actually granted that interview then he's got a point but i personally dont like that music he made, its just rubbish, he even used vulgar language. And for Tymaya, he's just too full of himself, he should try much more to develop good lyrical contents for his music, there's a lot of duplications and repetitions in almost all his tracks and if he does not caution himself, his fame may depreciate.

guys take it easy, u no no say most of our role models smoke the weed? don't b suprised cos even some of our senators, guvnors and even formers presido dey do d weed thing. the only thing be say some use for good while odas for evil. Bob Marley is still the greatest reggay star of all times, his empire is worth billions of dala. im soke sesemilia and fi giv u reggay in a different style, Jah Bless.

the lady sure looks weird, pls tell our nigerian music promoters to invite her to Naija for a show

Hey, wettin happen to d swagger master

this is an Nwa afo from Amakohia in Ihitte, our land sure rocks, Nwanne anwunoo!

which kain joke be dis

for those of u wanting to contact classic fm, they are located at kefi street off awolowo road, u can never miss the building at ur left. for Fellabrims, its always good to do what u have passion for irrespective of the physical returns what matters is ur emotional returns which is ur satisfaction. U can go for training at the FRCN raining Sch at Oshodi after that u determine ur limits in radio broadcasting Shalom!

that's what i want 2 hear and read not sum ppl trying 2 pass judgment on others, as far as i know there's 2 majeks in nigeria, he was and still d best from this part of d world when u talk reggay.

No matter how many times he had made mistakes it would only be better when his friends and well wishers, musicians, his state govt and others to do all that they can. Whitney Hewston experimented with cocaine and it nearly ruined her life but she was helped by people who she had touched with her music, today she is back and had just released a new music in the market. If she was left alone, think of what would have happened to her life and music career.

She definitely need to be preached to, she lives in her own world only God knows what her life experience had been like.

the plant is still a matter of controversy world over but u can google it and get more facts for ur self. Some historians also supports the fact that early philosophers like secrete and Aristotle used the herb also that William Shakespeare used it as both for stimulant and clear thinking.

did u guys c her last night @ the grammys , weird as usual

that guy sure was a star and, when he remixed a "redemption song" made popular by Bob Marley some years back, Rita Marley personally sought to know who he was cos he had such a magnificent voice that made the an instant hit. In my opinion, I think he deserves a second chance.

hi guys don't u think we should talk about the rain maker Majek Fashek, he was the greatest reggae icon from naija, he travelled overseas and experimented with cocaine and the likes and he is back to Nigeria, i would like to see him rehabilitated, at least we still need rain makers in our beloved country what do u think.

as far as im consigned, classic fm is the best thhing after ogbc2 in the 90s that has happened to radio broadcasting in nigeria.

pls lets be very careful the way we talk about any man who takes t upon himself to preach the gospel, if u feel thay are not doing well, then do ur own abi u no know sey salvation na personal, on the last day u will answer 4 ur self while i answer 4 myself. David in the bible cried when king Soul died in the battle, he even ordered the killing of the busy body that brought the news and claimed that he killed soul. The reason is because he valued the anointing of God that was upon Soul. So pls guys as long as these men have taken it upon themselves to do God's work irrespective of what ur opinions of thinking leave them alone, God is the final judge who will judge the works of men on the last day, don't say I did not warn u before repercussions start happening for whatever a man sow that he will reap, I rest may case.

U've got to be specific about this cos different ppl have their preferential kinda music, some love rap, some r'n'b, akpala music, some fuji, sme juju while ppl like me love reggae any day 247 and my favorite of all time being the late Honorable Nesta Robert Marley aka Bob Marley

CLOSE THE DOOR BY THE LATE TEDDY PENDERGRASS, it was a classic

those of u supporting today music seems to miss it all, come to think of it how many of today's musicians can play at least one musical instrument, apart from ppl like Asa, dare, sound sultan and some other classic naija artistes. Music of the old both local and international came with meanings, contents, expressions, the lyrics and rhythms were simply splendid. ok, listen to onyeka onwenu's one love and listen to timayas dem mama or listen to Aretha Franklyn's music and that of Beyonce today, guys lets say the truth there is no basis for comparison.

Stevie wonder, Lionel Richie, King Sunny Ade, Fatai Rolling Dollars, Jimmy Cliff, Onyeka Onwenu, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Sade Adu, Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Victor Uwaifo etc all dazzled the world not with some computer programming and some dummy-voices but with originality and their voice still stood the test of time. After the death of Bob Marley, his album Exodus was still selling worldwide. Bross no contest, Old school is it, most of the new generation artiste have already been forgotten just at the turn of the millennium when their music was released.

Lady Gaga or what ever u guys call hers looks and acts like one that is influenced by some kinda spirit out of this world, some even said she is a devoted member of the church of Lucifer, I no treap 4 beyonce at all becos in all her videos all she does is showcase her rubber hips!

what was ur view, that was an empty screen

I did not mean any harm my bro, the thing be say idey vess. I narrowly escaped being killed by Hausa mob in Kano in the year1999 during the Reinhard Bonkee crusade riots, if not for the intervention of my landlord who insisted that he does not want our blood to be spilled in his compound rather that we should go into the street and run for our life, we escaped through the back yard and found our way to Sabon Gari where the Ibos live. Any time I remember those incident, my heart burns with hatred for the northerners.

Recent researches had indicated that cannabis contains medicinal values, also countries like Canada and some European countries makes it legal for the herb to be used medically though with some form of controls from the relevant authorities. What do u think in line with this.

Haba Tatanian! w u sounding so biased, the problems that Nigeria encounters today starting frm the leadership to all basic infrastructure is caused by the cabal known as the Hausa fulanis, they keep drawing the nation backward with their Islam that promotes nothing but violence and evil. am from the east and was born in the North, I even attended an Islamic school and I grew up there I know what i say, no good will ever come out of this nation if the so called northerners continue to be part of the Nigerian project. Remember the north were the reason we did not get independence when other countries like Ghana obtained theirs all in the name of educationally backwards, up till today, their elites refused to send them to school so that they could continue using them to perpetuate violence by brainwashing them with religious fanaticism believing that when they kill they would be rewarded in heaven, such a barbaric way to reason, even a fool knows that killing a fellow human being is an xpress way to HELL!. The almajirais and beggars u see on the street of Lagos are criminals hiding in the guise of begging, they are the same ppl that are being used to perpetuate all manners of evils, when its time for trouble, they are transported to the northers states with long trailers used to convey livestocks and others agricultural produce from Alaba Rago in alagos, what ever deformity u notice on their bodies was as a result of all manners of wicked acts they have engaged themselves with, otherwise, why dont we have the same in other tribes who also beg.

I can go on and on and on, the conclusion is we want the country to split and let every entities go their separate ways, the very reason why the Nigerian-Biafran war was fought is still at force, no change at all and no thanks to the northerners who believe that power must rest with them forever, the truth is that nothing lasts forever, power inclusive and we are witnessing today as the power is about to leave the north as soon as Yar'Adua dies, they cant stop it except we have to opt for another bloody civil war, enough is enough and there is no other way out, ARABA KAWAI!!!, LETS SPLIT SIMPLE!
