The message and video is cool. But the fact that it lacks originality is a huge turn off.

Because


The line has been used several times in nigerian social media before he picked it. I like originality.
It's my favorite cos I always laugh when ever I hear the words cos it's funny and also means we have no security

Mr problem solver what have you done to solve nigeria's problems? Childish Gambino's this is america highlighted problems too but he didn't bring any solutions too.
And besides nigeria's problems can be solved by someone who has the mind, time and resources
it's called protesting music......musictivism

You are so quick to vent that you ended up sounding ignorant and foolish. If you are not up-to-date with the happenings in the music industry, why not ask.

Musicians all over the world do "Cover" on popular songs, I was just watching beauty and beast by Ariana Grande and John Legend, a beautiful cover of the original song by Celine Dion.

Adele's Hello had so many covers from Praiz, to Omawunmi to John Legend etc. Its legally accepted as long as props is given to the original singer which Falz did.

Its a cover bro!
Its a fuc.king cover!!!
Stop being stupid because its a Cover!!!
Doing cover is legal and accepted!!!

mumu so doing a cover for a song is plagiarism even when the title clearly mentions the original song

Go and check the meaning of plagiarism in your dictionary and check the meaning of parody before coming here to vent your frustrated life on Falz

serious if not Diddy i for never watch the video oh. I just watched it.

I thought the video was dope. I was sad that Gambino stole our dance but now we #TOOKITBACK.

Thanks to fals. I never liked him cos I didnt take him serious weda na comedian or actor or singer, I didnt know his niche. this is how Banky W take blow o with ebute metta. and see as phyno and davido rush like diddy comment like housemaids. dem no day see other comments made by nigerians make dem like am oh. na onl foreigners posts dem day comment on. the only time they respond to their fans is when someone insults them they clap back with very bad words. look at that worwor thing, once a poor tomboy (yemi alade) way i no no weda she get tohtow sef begin call Nigerians beggars. how can a celebrity sound like that? na only we day beg? americans also beg Beyonce but she never sounded that way to any fan.

is good that he took this song seriously and I hope it gains international accolades o. Can you imagine nairaland no even tell me say song like this day since but dey have been showing me Daniella okeke yarsh. they have been advertising Cee-c. na now way diddy don hype the guy on an international and more solid level na dem day talk about the guy here.

na so we day kill ourselves oh. after we go day catch winch for yonder. we no day fit helo ourselves grow. bad belle. make e be say na me make all the money. very bad. no support at all. Kemi just day tear Linda Ikeji down for nothing.

people die for Benue and Mercy Johnson no send. but her mama die she day announce am make we do wetin? her mama better pass people way Muslims kill for Benue? Herdsmen died in Tarab and no Imam came out to voice out anything. but na them go still camp boys day for jihad crusade.

Nnamdi Kanu is missing close to one year now and the government whose right it is to protect the citizens has not put out anything.

Igbos you people should ask anyone coming to campaign or visit you where Nnamdi Kanu is. That should be the thing to give to get your vote. that is how they Killed Funsho Williams and no one went to jail for it. i cried for Funsho Williams. my mentor.

Dino is missing for months now. we take am like play. look at how they are messing Innoson up. a man who is putting nigeria in the best positive light ever. Innoson is not even listed in our stock exchange. our stock exchange na so so foreign company full am.

look at the stupid deal Buhari day go sign with china. what do we need chinese money for. china does not even like blacks to begin with.

The northerners are not able to invent anything giving all the empowerment and resources dropped at their feet. where are the intellectuals in the north? would it be a crime for a herdsman to go to school and then commercialize this herd business? we still import dead inflated chicken from shithole countries to nigeria when almost every compound can build a small poultry. Ota farm I no no weda e still day function.

dangote prefer to invest in other african countries than to invest in the east and other places outside lagos. in abakaliki they have fine granite that we can invest in.

ajaokuta steel is dead. we prefer to import steel so that the yoruba man will no be richer than the northerners.

all the businesses are dying but cattle herding does not die. they have refused to close that business even though many states asked for grazing on ranches.

Nigeria imported US$28.9 billion worth of goods in 2017 alone and Buhari is begging China for $6 billion . is that not a joke?

$6 billion = the undisclosed amount gotten from embezzlers.

there was textile business back in kano. the last time i bought a material in Abuja, the first wash all the colour disappear. it stained my other outfits in the machine.

all states are selling lands anyhow and building dilapidated structures making up unplanned communities. you begin to wonder if the ministry of urban planning is a kitchen for igboh smokers. the states have no plans at all. you cannot use google map properly in nigeria. you go miss road. nothing works.

see as dem put people parents under sun make dem day do traffic warden when other controls use signals. even the beat where these people day no get welfar facilities.

if you complain na even poor men na go beat you before government come self. people are so blind and it sucks for real.

Realest talk I have heard in a very very very long while

This post brought tears to my eyes... God continue to bless and keep you. This is a young Nigerian who see the ills of this country. Getting it right isn't rocket science.. It's plain and simple common sense, until the violence gets into our homes we do not really care. We can rant all we want on social media but how long does that last? After a while it dies just like every other thing in this country.. Until we rise up and stop being social media warriors, until we realize that we aren't fighting a North vs South war but a collective war for our existence as a people, as a nation, as a race.. A war to bring back the values that made us the giant of Africa at some point in our history.. Until we realize all of these, we are not ready
