My Top Ten Naija Songs of 2010

Here are my top 10 Naija Songs of 2010 and they are arranged in no order of preference.

My main criteria for deciding which song comes up on here is what I use in judging all songs and it’s the delivery the song was made in and the meaning the song portraits.

• Still Together by Banky W ft MI

This song was released on Oct 1^st 2010 to mark the 50^th year of Nigeria’s independence. This song was well delivered, nice lyrics, even though we are still together as a country; I hope we will be together in Peace and Unity come 2011.

For me, there is no way this song won’t have made it to my top 10 list and if am to have just one song that made my 2010, it will have to be this song because ‘we rise when we fall, we still standing tall, we will make it through the night, You and I’.

What can I say about MI’s rap on this track? He killed it, using the right delivery he is known for, he added the right lyrics, I think this is one of his best.

• Get Down by Vector ft 2face

‘See I like the smile on people’s faces, every time we step into town’

2face is an artist that kills tracks so what else do you expect from a collabo with him.  Even though Vector is not my kind of artist cos I think he is proud, I can never hide the fact that he is good. He has got a kindda delivery that works for me and having 2face on a track is just the best that can happen to an artist at the moment.

Delivery was Bam, style was lovely, the song for me is one of the best of 2010

• Dreamer by Young Pizzy

‘ I'm a dreamer, if u dream someday surely it will come true!’

Am sure most of you don’t know this guy neither do you know this song but I will like you all to listen to the song, you can get it on 4shared.com. This is a song that would have made it to my top 5 songs of 2010 and to even think that it came from a young artist in the musical industry, this song is a BOMB, am giving it to him.

Delivery is superb, hard and strong, kindda unique, just the way I like it. I love songs with true meaning and this is one of such songs.

• One Naira by MI ft Waje

There’s something about this song that even the lil’mistake in the song can never hide, this is a great song, it’s one of the very few MI songs that am proud of. There are some very sick and deep dope lines on this track such as ‘it doesn’t matter if I’ve got ego, there’s something we can build on Lego’ Very, very lovely line.

 Waje being on this track killed it with her ‘superb’ voice; I just can’t help but to put this song on here. This song does it for me cos ‘whether na one naira, whether na one million, babe u got me’.

• Jor oh! remix By JahBless, Eldee, Reminisce, Durella and Ruggedman

‘Yahoo messenger, shey o le ran lo soja?’

This song recorded massive download and became more popular than the original song. The delivery was strong and the style was nice. Jahbless got some crazy people on this track and it became an instant hit. It's definitely going down on my top 10 songs of 2010, 'Jor oh'!

• Fimile remix by Kas ft 2Face and D’Banj

This song will definitely make it to my top 3 songs of 2010. Its like bringing the best of both worlds together, D’Banj and 2Face.

Kas did a great job and the combination of 2Face and Dbanj on this track is what I call musical explosion. Need I say more? This song is just it for me BTW ‘omo Yoruba ni mi o, swagga’

• Jazz Me by Zeez ft Waje

This is a song that may not do it for you but for me, it sure does, else it wont have climbed up to be in my top 10 songs of 2010.

I give this to Zeez and Waje for a nice track well delivered, this is a love song delivered in a party-like/dance-like tone, I just cant help it, or maybe 'o ma ti logun fun mi, ko ma ye mi mo bo shey nsemi'.

• My Head, My Belle by MI

Nice song man, mixture of in-house and streetwise lyrics.

Delivery is very unique; I really love what you did on this track and what you did with this song, there is no doubt that you’re going places but watch your lyrics brova! Nice song.

• Rain Drops by 2Face

This song simply summarize a part of 2Face’s life and he used the opportunity to advice the youth saying ‘Young man, be careful and think it twice, before you choose to use your device, so you don’t have rain drops falling from your eyes, once you see a blessing in disguise’.

2Face is an intelligent artist, a very good one and a focused one at that. Still looking forward to the day I will meet him. This song is one of my best tracks on his Unstoppable album. What pains me most is that Nigerians listen to the beat and delivery of a song and not the lyrics, this song is a kindda song I can allow my child listen to over and over again. This song will definitely be on my top 5 songs of the year, it does a whole lot for me.

• Scape Goat by D’banj

D’banj made it clear that he is an entertainer and he proved it with this track. Though this was a hard decision, I had to pick it over Mr. Endowed.

This is a song composed of ‘sweet nothings’, the kindda things gurls love to hear and him being an entertainer, he went ahead to deliver this song in a very nice way.

Don J did a very good job on the beat and D’banj delivered well, nice song and its going down on my top 10 Naija songs of 2010.

Coming up with this list was kindda easy for me as songs that has no true meaning were automatically disqualified and am sure this answers your question about why Oleku by Ice Prince and Don’t Dull by WizKid never made it up to this list.

HaPpY New Year Friends, I hope to be a consistent writer in the year 2011.

Thanks for making year 2010 a success for me; I look forward to sharing year 2011 with you guys.

LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Merry Xmas, the Naija Style

This Video was made out of boredom about a year ago.
Looking at the video, one will think I'm on some cheap drugs such as Xpired Alabukun but when it comes to making people smile, laugh and want to talk more, am always ready to make a fool of myself and this was one of such times. I hope you do enjoy and laugh over it but in the mean time MERRY XMAS in advance!!

Drop a comment pls. thanks!

Poo-po or Health, Where do you belong?

If you're one of those who think wine drinking is a bad habit, this is for you

Also those who believe water is health, need to read this post

And finally to those struggling to put an end to wine drinking, this post is dedicated to you

I Just got accused by someone so close to me if I had gone drinking again while another said that "too much wine ain't good for the body, water is better". We all know what the doctors say "Drink a lot of water, it will help your system" but here is a word for you all, Now is the time to know nothing but the truth!

As Ben Franklin said:

"In wine there is wisdom,

 In beer there is freedom, 

 In water there is bacteria."

In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, At the end of the year we would have absorbed More than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) -bacteria Found in faeces. In other words, we are consuming 1kilo of poop..However, We do NOT run that risk when drinking wine or beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) Because alcohol has to go through a purification process Of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Equation: Water = Poop while Wine = Health.

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, Than to drink water and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service!

Yes you heard me right, all am doing is a public service, someone opened my eyes and I saw a reason for yours to be open too.

SMH, so much about water this days that am so scared of using it but as the Great Legend, The King of Afro Beat said in his song tittle 'Water', he said "water, e no get enemy" meaning "water has got no enemy". In all our daily endeavours, we all need to make use of it else ..................
