In as much as i would have loved to criticize the madness of FTC_ish, the Joy of being on the front page and FTC with less hassles, and most importantly few hours to moi baffday??.. i cant just but give this jargon a trial..
may i have the privilege of dedicating this space cum achievement to my good boy "Manna", and to all my "Eku atijos", and then to my NL e_crush Esmeraldar and then to my hmm! fellow drunkard honourable chief woki, and the best entrepreneurship (whatever) (I studied Economics not English) of year Jbluv55, and to all my fellow chelseafcmania and to my producer football frenzy neighy and to Itohan distant cousin Elantracey, and to myself Jobsat34...
Believe me, this gonna be my first and last time of doing this madness...
benjsniper33: Brethern, one of the greatest skill one needs to master in this present word is the act of being versatile and formless like an amoeba to be able to comfortable into the varying "cracks and crevices" of life, to be able to survive in both harsh and favourable conditions (The legendary Oddysius in Greek mythology), to be able to sail your ship sucessfully through the turbulent and calm waves of life (Captain Jack Sparrow),reading the minds of your enemies, predicting their moves and ultimately checking it like a master chess-player(Sun Tzu, Niccoloi Machiavelli) to be able to perform excellently when unexpectedly given any post or resource to handle or manage (Joseph Stalin, Chief Obafemi Awolowo), to be flexible and ductile at enemies attempt to break you (General Hannibal), to be able to bounce back almost immediately after various spate of life defeats and career setbacks and releasing masterpieces that will change the historical trend of your field (Abraham Lincoln, Late Dagrin) to be able to change yourself into different kinds of things to confuse your enemies and adversaries and instill deathly fear in them, dissappearing and appearing behind enemy lines and wreaking reckless havoc, fighting in different terrains and dark alleys and forests, annihilating your enemies in your mysterious hurricane leaving nothing but their destruction in your wake(Atilla the Hun,Vasily Zaitsev, Genghis Khan , Benjamin Adekunle). If you read the books or study the life of this great people you will discover that they were born like normal humans but i learnt from them that to be able to develop this rare attribute you need to develop yourself to the maximum capacity and spending more of your subjecting yourself to various extra-ordinary tests and drillings and enter dreadful forests to wrestle with "spirits and other phantom creatures that are only found in the nether-parts of the world" and then coming out alive (only few will grasp what i mean here)
The 48th law of power written by Robert Green says "Assume Formlessness, with this you will be able to enter the camps of your enemies unnoticed and master their plan and use it to destroy them"
Dbanj simply fore-shadowed the plans of The Mohit Crew and decided to single handedly personalise it knowing fully when that he exist to lead and trailblaze not to be a "follow-follow boy boy" of any sort. He believed in himself
Here is my own philosophical view on this. I say a big thank you to all good Nairalanders who dedicated their time in reading this little piece of mine. Pls note that the names of the people I used may not tally with the description but i remember them with those qualities i am still young and imperfect so therefore i welcome all insults and calumny on this
pendulumdarky: I am dropping this note for the haters who are about to start bashing d'banj.You guys claim don jazzy has been doing well but the weird moment you realize don jazzy and the whole mavin crew only did 1 major concert in the last 2 years, had mtn endorsement which was shared among the whole mavins and had a cheap loya milk endorsement while d'banj on the other hand.
1)Re-signed a bettr deal with Globacom 2)He became ONE campaign ambassador and was on the same stage with president of world bank 3)He won world music awards 4)His song"Top of the world was the AFCON theme" and was performed at the AFCON 2013 closing ceremony held in South Africa. 5)He also performed at the Hackney Weekend to celebrate the 2012 Summer Olympics, which was headlined by Jay-Z and Rihanna 6)He was also selected as the Ambassador of Bank of Industry 7)He was signed to Mercury Records He became the ambassador for BEATS by dre 9)His song "Bother you" was the official sound track of half of the yellow sun movie 10)He also went into partnership with signed Sony Music Entertainment 11)He also headlined Hennessy Artestry 2013 alone. which also gave him the opportunity to travel to france to make his own brand of hennesy(Legendary) 12)In that 2 years his hit song was all over european charts.
If i am not mistaken, no artist in Nigeria has been able to achieve this feet of success in just 2 years.Open your eyes well and see who the real boss is.I think Don jazzy should just go back and beg d'banj because when tiwa leaves mavins then he will blame himself..Don jazzy is till pretty much doing the same thing he has been doing all this while,and you guys call that progress!!!! D'banj is the real meaning of progress here to me.I am sure don jazzy has gone down financially a bit because d'banj is the main artist who brought many deals and endorsements during mohits era. Tiwa didn't even sign a full contract with mavin so maybe don jazzy is only getting 20% from whatever tiwa makes.
I will also advice the new mavin kids to leave before they end up like wande because i remember he never had a house or a big car or made any progress but thank God later he grabbed an endorsement after he left.The mavin kids can just start working alone and make it like davido,oritse femi, patoranking and so on..Because if they do not leave, Don jazzy will only use them like he used wande.
gmyguy: I think Nairaland should have a yoruba, ibo and hausa translator plug in...Personally, i am not really a fan of either and i usually beef all these people who seem to be making stupid money while i am here waiting for salary, but you have to give it to D banj's humanitarian efforts at ending poverty. He is building a legacy, like most great musicians have done in the past eg. Fela. And Don J makes us shake booty and grind that bum at the club in the evenings...So...let me consult Ifa for who he thinks has grown bigger since their divorce
gmyguy: This is how people fail exam...Your examiner said D banj and Don J...Discuss the differences. After you paid for the exam and came to sit for the paper...i didn't bring the paper to meet you at home, and you are here saying you don't give a hoot. Is that the topic or the question they asked you?!
stalyf: First, this is really one of my business because who has progressed so far can change the cost of Garri *Koko Garri*
But on a serious note, I think Nigerians should be happy to have two wonderful people who have contributed positively to the growth of the music industry.
Without Music, D'banj will still be ranking in the money with his business sense. Don't know about Don Baba J.
emedy: In my less than humble Opinion... D'banj. This fellow has broken off the conventional Nigerian Musicians. Though his Music Career may not really flourish here,i see D'banj as one of the few that will Remain wealth after his Tandem. He has really Diversified. Cheers to him.
While Don Jazzy has since gone ahead to establish and promote his Mavins crew, D'Banj has not really done much with his Lee group. However, he is one artiste from Nigeria whose name is now being sung far and beyond Aftica and Nigeria at this moment. HIS last presentation at TEDxWBG is out of this space and he has done so much for agriculture and on ending poverty.
Mikel really upped his game against Sudan. He even had an acrobatic shot at goal. He showed some seriousness and urgency seriously. That was the Mikel I knew 9 years ago!
Are boyz here that randy and Hot that dey keep bombarding me with pms upon pms seun, do something plz.i will soon forward their names to ban them for me as part of my welcome party on ur site.
You never see anything! Most guys here are preying on who to lay. Beware if you are not the type.
I no want make Nigeria qualify sef. I want make NFF continue with Keshi so that he can be humiliated thoroughly. Then he will have no country to coach again. Stupid foolish man.
