wack mc's
the boom in the music industry has brought about its own negatives and overbearing forms of its fad.
its qiute interesting that a couple of years ago, i coulndt bring myself to buy any album by a local artiste but as time went on i
began to see great imporovement in the beats, lyrics and most importantly the video's are nearly there
there.. butthen there is so much to yarn about.. there are a lot of fake mc's there and rub it on our faes
the media houses dont mind given the airtime and
the radio dj's are not left out too.. pls dont get me wrong i aint a playa -hater, npe far from that
infact some of these guys cant stand my flow even right now. my swag is still on years after quiting the game... its hurts my ear hear some of these stuff.. last week
i was chilling at home with my wife and we were on mytv africa channel, i saw some horrible videos
and i was like" dont we have a censorship style of administration were videos are looked at before being
shown to the general public?.. the lyrics were rubbish, and the girls in the video... oh my God.. some raunchy stuff and thats all?
God save our beloved hip hop... look i love hip hop and will always do.. imagine my friends yabbing me to the effect that i still listen to "all that trash"
is 32 too old?..nahhh , infact i just started.. my plea is that like S.O.N or NAFDAC, albums should have the proverbial nafdac number
they should stop insulting hip hop heads like us with their gibberish.. anyone listening out there? why cant we go back to the days of curtis blow, krs-one, houdini,
big ups to naeto c, ikechukwu , dare art alade, m.i, jerry gyang,eldee, and the other guys keeping it real, thanks we lov ya.. KINI BIG DEAL?
FOOTBALL 101
its beign a long time coming, and its about to burst.i am talking about all the hype and hulabaloo
about the beautiful game, dont get me wrong, i love the game.. wait
t let me rephrase, i'm made for the game.
its rather unfortunate that our beautifuk game has beign draged rounds like its an avenue to brag
hag, nag and all what not, in retrospect i never envisiaged a day that footbal will be this massive and come
with so much negativity.
okay let me put it this way,there ia absolutely nothing wrong in watching or loving the game
where i have problems is where guys argue, shout and in exreme cases kill each other.. no i am not
talking about the stadiums, no.. i am talking about the guys in your office or your neigbourhood, or even in the
at church????
the silly part is that most of this guys know little or nothing about the game, all they
know is chelsea, arsenal, barca, man united et all, ok fine you can support any team u want, no
qualms , but when it degenerates to extreme levels it pisses me off. look it is possible to love a
team passionatel, and be good about it..
for pete's sake why the sudden craze about football?, it has been there a long time, why now,
and why the absurdity that most new fans bring to the table...
i have loved football for as long as i can remember..my classmate in secondary school called yinka aina
who is on facebook christened me "WSD" an acronym for "walking sports dictionary", and this was in 1991,
a whooping 18 yrs ago, can you beat that? my first article was published in the trumpeter of september 1992 in kano
suprise? dont be.. i have been on radio and television in plateau state, specifically N.T.A JOS where i was opportuned to meet ex-internationals
like patrick mancha and bature saleh.
the sacrifices we made for this game makes me quake in my tommy when i see young folks this days making
the game look like some fashion accessory or an add-on..
i asked a guy sometime ago to name 5 members of the 1995 eaglets squad to ecuador 95 and he was looking
at me like i was yarning rocket science... if you know your footy, u wont shout up and down
and make so much noise.. or will you tell me you know chris-bart williams?..ehennn you want to google
it ba...
so for those that have stayed through for the past fifteen years.. stay true.. love and respect to
shuaibu umoru, emma luka, hassan jidda, fie ikoko, joseph tuko.. thanks for been true football lovers
since 1991,lets do it for anothe 18 years again.dr. babajide keshinro thanks for everything, for beign a true mentor
, you have affected my life in so many ways you wont believe..fie ikoko, do you remember my essay about the 1945 U.K TOURISTS?
and for the new kids on the block.. uchenna ohah, kyonne jakonda, uyo jummai, silas yohanna,tony fakah
welcome aboard... learn the ropes so you can join the veterans... learn to bark, then you can bite
WHY AM I WRITING THIS?.. i am at a bar and this fat ignorant ibo guy just spat into my drink trying to
celebrate nemanja vidic's opener for man u against chelsea, damn i am off to the house.. ciao
