Thanks. . . i've been bobbing my head to this. How long ago did she make it?  The chorus is cool, Blaise is good no doubt, some nice word play, rhyming schemes, metaphors all present here. . . . . .   Her 3rd verse is better than her second and her second is better than her first.
BUT are you telling me that 'Supernatural' is better than 'Make Em say?'

I dont think so.

With that said, i'm looking forward to hearing some new solo material from Blaise this year.

demo47:
Omo it may go on notjustok so dont be surprised when u see it

I saw your post and doubted the possibility until I saw Ovie's post. U must be well connected

It would be so cool if it makes notjustok. If it does, i'll even be a bit nicer in my posts there. . . lol

seemama:
omo go and ask many artist out there and they will tell u,i dont know if u know any artist that is making it now but the fact is that this djs dont care if your song can be a hit,i dont want to mention the names of artist and hit songs that went through this problem but later the same djs were looking for the songs dat they rejected months before because of payola, now they want to play it cuz it is a hit,this djs are killing the industry,i wonder if yankee artists pay dem money toplay their song here in naija.

Why are you posting such a naive topic? Payola is nasty BUT is part and parcel of the music industry worldwide.

Didnt anybody tell you about it before you went to the studio to record ur tracks?

Please watch this:

pheesayor:
as much as this is not  thread for comparism, blaise is the best of all Nigerian femcees, wonder why she's not taking music serious

Everybody says blaise is the best BUT based on what evidence? Blaise hasnt yet done a track to rival this one. I hope she gets serious real soon. . . . . .

semid:
Jeez! You sure know your Naija hiphop history. So you rocked to Emphasis' 'which one u dey'? Na wa o! You've just earned my respect unlike those silly boys that think hiphop in 9ja started with the likes of Modenine, MI, Ruggedman, etc

mbulela:
2nded.
enough respect.

It's the main reason that I have followed and continue to support K16's reemergence as a solo artist. In Emphasis he was then called mouth MC. Hes the guy wearing the white hat on the right.

I expect big things from him this year


Its Naija hip hop all day

OR maybe we could organise  a remix with this beat. The beat and hook is a KILLER for the topic at hand

Thy Album Come - Ruggedman

These are without any doubt IMO the BEST albums outta naija in the last 10 years.

there is a guy called[b] DJ Clems [/b][did i spell that right?][b]at knighthouse [/b]who  i think is one THE BEST PRODUCERS in naija at the moment. . . .BUT for some reason he aint gettin any props

I liked the concept of this song BUT it was too racist for me to get on board. JJC needs advisors. I think the hype has got to his head.

BY FAR. . . . . . . . . this is the BEST '#light up nigeria' song that i have heard. . . . . . . . BY A MILE!!  Thats why it was a personal pick for me approved by the RCC on the NL hip hop mixtape album.

If u disagree please say why. . . . .   maybe we should set up a seperate #light up nigeria thread. . . . .just thinking. . . . .

javalove:
lol web uba setup dis one 

im a naija hip hop head. . . . . .  period!!!

hate it or love it. . . . . . .naija hip hop WILL take over the world. I swear, one day somebody will dig up this thread and say Rapjunkie was a prophet.

DaBlaze:
Just downloaded this. Like it so much i wanted to show appreciation by leaving a comment. Well done guys. Can i post this to my facebook profile? Sorry, i'm a newbie, don't know how this works.

Please upload it and spread as far and as wide as u can. . . . . . . . . no shaking!!

thanks for droppin ur comment. . . . . .

Thanks guys. I'm really proud of it and we should do this again at the end of the year. I no go lie, I've been listening to the mixtape non stop since I uploaded it.

A friend of mine who is a naija guy hadnt heard most of the songs before and was truly amazed at the skills showcased. He  burnt the whole thing to CD and is slamming the mixtape in his ride as we speak.

I forgot to thank all of you for contributing by posting your fav tracks which helped the Rapjunkie Congress Committee (RCC) decide on the final track list.

I have always loved naija hiphop, from the very early days of Emphasis [i was a MAJOR fan] to the present day. It's in my DNA.  I've watched it grow and grow and I am so exicted at the prospects that lie ahead.

For example, Da Grin's album is SO GOOD that with the right strings being pulled he could get some major foreign music award nominations.

One day, we will be buying tickets to head for the grammys to watch one of our own win, like Skales said.

ofokaofoki:
@rapjunkie
he e like say na true o , blaise doesnt have a single of her own thats tight. except collabos
but blaise ft obi -''see swagger'' murders all other naija girls verses .abi?

Its another good effort BUT YET JUST ANOTHER 16 bars.

If she had two more verses [32 extra bars of material] and obi just sang the hook then I would be able to judge

Ladies & Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I enclose the completed NL Hip Hop Mixtape 2009.

This is by far the BEST collection of naija hip hop tracks ever put together on one CD.

This goes to show how advanced Naija hip hop has become and if u consider that we are still evolving, then, only the sky can be the limit.

I look forward with great anticipation for the hot naija hip hop that will drop in 2010.

A big shout out to M.I and the chocolate city crew for clearing the path for other talented naija mc's to get through. Lets face it, 2009 was M.I 's year and he single handedly reignited interest in naija hip hop.

There is more to naija music than tile, tile, chi,  e ga gbu madu le [did i spell that right?]

A big shout out to Anime Designs, Kirby's Productions and Gafar Olaonipekun for the artwork. You guys dey try. There are three different mixtape covers and one back cover with the track list.  Just choose whichever you want.

If you need artwork done holla at them at the graphics section of Nairaland.

Last but not least, a big shout out to lalaboi for supporting this project from the get go.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

If Rugged does not reply the Mode9 diss track then he MUST address it on a song explaining why he didnt. He can't afford to ignore it completely if he wants to remain credible in this game.

OR he might as well start singing like Eldee and Dr Sid.

rapjunkie:
The completed mixtape will be ready tomorrow guys

Sorry for the delay but it will be uploaded later today complete with a multiple choice of artwork.

The mixtape will be available as ( 1) a long running non stop mp3 and (2) as seperate mp3 tracks.

ravenzord:
Fact: Blaise is ill
Fact: Blaise has no credible single out
Fact: Blaise can't be said to have the illest single since she doesn't have any.

@ Rapjunkie: I disagree with you, Eva's 'Make em say' is a good song,but Kel has lotsa better songs; 'Sitting on Top' for example.

'sitting on top' has too many features to be considered in this discussion.  Anything else?

semid4lyfe:
Blaise is da Iron lady of Rap/hiphop in 9ja. modenine respekt the babe so tey im nickname her MicCheck Thatcher. She no get any single but she owns every track she's featured in. Eva is good no doubt but she ain't got nothin' on da Iron lady.

All these titles. . . . . based on what track?

[quote author=Hoh-Dee link=topic=373454.msg5226071#msg5226071 date=1262288320]blaise did av lik 2 single tht i knw of,
she release 1,guess afta da collabo
wit freestyle--Bragin rite & da song title
is DA DEFINATN,av bin askin lala& co 2 upload tht
track 4 lik ages,bt sims none of em knw da song,
Da 2nd 1 i knw of is SUPERNATURAL which ws release
last yr/dis yr, go check da 2 out,deff a good music, & yeah
remember she ga a track named --LASAN also,
so i name 3tracks frm her now, DA DEFINATION,SUPERNATURAL & LASAN
go check em out[/quote]I have heard Lasan. It's an ok/nice song. A competent performance by Blaise BUT does not have the wow factor. It sounds like more like an album filler. Listened to 'get up jor' and 'bigger'. The same story. Competent rapping, thats all.

listen here    -   http://www.mytruspot.com/blaise/

She has talent but needs some nicer beats/concepts/melodies.

Listen to her 16 on this beat  - Down by modenine feat blaise, kraft, terry tha rapman 

U can download/listen to the track from this link

http://nigerianhiphop.net/blog/2009/12/03/modenine-down-ft-terry-tha-rapman-blaise-kraft/

she murders it . . . . .  Modenine, kraft and terry all held it down too and it's a really really great track
BUT its not Blaise's track. . . . . comprehende?

I cant find any of the other Blaise tracks mentioned so it would help if somebody could post a link

U can have all the talent in the world but if you do not utilise it properly then it is a waste.

Blaise has been around longer BUT it seems that Eva has already made the better tracks.

eldee:
Rapjunkie pushed it aside to concentrate on the elections.
Now that Tosin won . . . he's too busy preparing for the tribunal hearing to contest the decision

How do u know? are u spying on me? I need to call a meeting to discuss serious breaches in my security.

The completed mixtape will be ready tomorrow guys

ofokaofoki:
@rapjunkie ,
eva is ok i dig her a lot too, but  she doesnt have enuff work out to be called ''the best'' if u know what i mean !
come to think of it blaise doesnt have any tight single o except collabos with freestyle , xyz and terry , but lyrically she is far better than eva water. even a 2 year old pikin knows that
abi eva don give rapjunkie bosom drink?
rapjunkie i told u i was coming to reply u . make i chop moin moin first

Thats my point. I aint saying eva is the best. . . .i'm saying this is the best hip hop single track by a femcee that i have heard IMO. If she keeps this up, she WILL be the best. I've got ' i dare u' by blaise, xyz and terry the rapman. Blaise's 16 was cool but what else? Why is she being called the best when she aint even got a credible single?. Best potential more like but now with the emergence of eva i don't think so.

i agree. [s] [shouldnt this be on the ruggenine thread?] [/s]   

dammiecool:
there will never be peace until we all agree that this two (Ruggednine) re d greatest.

@densil

which kain picture be dat?

khanye:
I'm feeling Eva on Id Cabasa's UNDERATED and OWO ati SWAGGA rmx
She's good but BLAISE is Better!

densil:
Naughty dude blaiz is da ilest

ofokaofoki:
@rapjunkie
ARE U JUST HEARING EVAFOR THE FIRST TIME?
??, I HAVE 4 OF HER SONGS, BESIDES SHE NEEDS TO WORK HARDER. IT IS NOT THE BEST LISTEN TO BLAISE!

name the track that is better than this?. . .Blaise is better, Blaise is the best, Blaise is the illest, blah, blah, blah, blah


name the track? all i hear is

dammiecool:
mode fans sayz rugged rap music is meant 4 mechanics and shoe makers

when i first heard rugged, that line ' i rap for mechanics and shoe makers' appealled to me because it meant he was trying to bring hip hop to the street. I admired that approach. AND it was hot sh$t!!Everybody should be able to enjoy hip hop, it cant be ALL snobby and intellectual with worldplay, metaphors, punchlines. Thats just a style of writing. You dont need lyrics filled with punchlines and complex meanings and rhyming structures to make credible hip hop music. Thats absurd.

I guess this debate will never be solved because music means different things to different people. Mode9 and Rugged are two gifted rappers who have different strengths and weakneseses. I am lucky that I can admire and appreciate both.


HOWEVER, i'm looking forward to new albums from both of them  in 2010.
