Tayo, I just want you to know that I watched every bit of this. My God!
What a video.
Im Glad you loved it
I felt soooo inspired and refreshed damnnn! I wonder the kind of books M.I reads his perceptions are out of this world. Thanks for this amazing video I love it
Wow! M.I is so intelligent. His responses are so on point. I love you so much M.I and Tayo.
@@peemonnyhenry I could sense that he has read so much!!
For real!! This one of thee best videos I have EVER watched!
His responses are highly well thought out and intelligible. “God when?”
He's very philosophical. Open minded and said things the way he sees them.
No surprises,he is well educated with a foreign degree to booth!
@@akeemsalami1764 this is part of the problem M.i was talking about; we should believe in ourselves..he didn't get a degree abroad..he said he came back from America with no degree
I think he schooled at ATBU, Bauchi
The whole choc city are like that
GOD always
MI's Dad, Rev Abaga used to come preached in our church in Rayfield Jos in the 90s. MI and his brothers were in the band. Their family has always being of great blessing ever since
I had to put my dinner on hold because of this interview..MI is the most brilliant Nigeria artist I've ever seen.
I can't agree less
You can say that again. I never knew he's like this. How I wish all out artistes are like him. He is superbly loaded and can engage any Politician in any conversation and on any topic. He has a sound mind.
He's such an amazing artist.👌
I totally agree with you.... One of a kind
No cap!
Tayo, your growth is incredible. I remember when you started, and then you told us about your days as an uber driver. You took us through a journey, real estate and now we are seeing Africa in a different light. Now we are hearing the voices of Africans and their achievements. Beautiful, your determination and driving force, incredible. Well done and more wins.
Thank you 🙏🏾
I almost carried from the passion in his voice when he said WE ARE AFRICANS! My God! I wish we will one day understand the full depth of this statement. Tayo, God bless you!
Yes , Amazing video ‼️‼️ Much Love from 🇺🇸 (We Are Africans) His passion , What a Amazing Soul ‼️‼️‼️
“Doing things the right way creates solutions that make everything better”
Thank you for having MI over!
*"We are the source code, to the human race!!"* - M.I
That's not true.. Stop deciveing yourselves
@@racusmashford6831 stop hating
@@racusmashford6831 racist here
And he ain't never lie!
What he said!!! You can disagree with a message but agree with the messenger. Music can be powerful but not as powerful as the musician that sings it.
That line was so deep!
so well thought out
His responses are so deep and well thought out. Tayo did you edit the parts where he stops to think before responding? My respect for MI just went through the roof after watching this interview. What a guy!
Don’t you just love ❤️ the Way Tayo Takes us on different journeys all over the world and introduce us to the most amazing people from all walks of life. ♥️💛💚🖤
Tayo just proved his salt in this amazing interview. Fantastic !
I have also be a fan of MI since I was a young girl... African Rapper No. 1 MI Microphone Magician 😍😍
This guy makes more sense than all our leaders combined.
Is it Nigerian leaders or African leaders.. lmao 🤣
I think all world leaders 🤣 truly an insightful video!
I believe you religiously 👍👍👍
Abi o
Correction please...
Rulers and Dealers... No Leaders yet in 9ja yet...
This is inarguably one of the best interviews ever of any African TH-camr. My respect for the Host & Guest ( M I Abaga ) is at all time high .. Brilliantly done. I wish there could be a second part to this please please please !!! Definitely trying The Pause Cafe. Thank you very much....
I am from the Caribbean and have never heard of this artist before, but I'm glad I know him now. This was an amazing conversation, because he is so full of knowledge, wisdom, humility and positivity. I could listen to him speak all day. Well done @Tayo Aina!
He is Africans best rapper...but have been low key for some time now...very brilliant guy
Start with "A study of self worth - yxng Dxnzl" by MI Abaga
Mi is the greatest, his state Jos is one of the most beautiful state in Nigeria 🇳🇬
@@zeezeeabbas4190 He is originally from Taraba state (my state).Takum LGA to be precise Jukun by tribe.
@@modibbobilal954 we are all the same nothin about state bullshit or tribe stuff.
I actually Like How Tayo Tells his stories;

🌹Places
🌹People
🌹their experience
🌹everything.....
👍🤗🤸
I almost cried from the passion in his voice when he said WE ARE AFRICANS! My God! I wish we will one day understand the full depth of this statement. Tayo, God bless you for this intense and insightful interview.
“I think we need to talk about it” - Africans are terrible at expressing their emotions and feelings. I think talking makes things better. Definitely learnt a lot from this interview. Thanks for bringing MI on board, Tayo.
Thank you for your very thoughful comment. Appreciated
I strongly agree with you Ada, talking really makes things better.
I agree with you.... The best interview. Highly intellectual yet explained issues in such a very simple way.
African rapper No 1, Honestly MI is definitely one of the best out there
I've always known that M.I. was an intelligent person, but, damn, this man is what I hope to be someday.
Wise, articulate and driven.
Thank you, Tayo for bringing M.I. on your channel. I really loved it.
M.I is articulate with a brilliant mind. ✊🏿🇳🇬
MI’s rap lyric already told me he was intelligent, but man, today concluded it. Thanks Tayo for this great interview.
Maaaaan! It's been a minute. Haven't seen this guy in a while. Such wisdom, Africa needs more people like him. Can't wait for the podcast. Love from SA🇿🇦
Love to Juju Malema..we really need to love ourselves Mzanzi
Nothing sexier than an intelligent thoughtful mind.
😂
Factssss!!!! Haha.
An African from Kenya back here. So refreshing to listen to MI and amazing questions by Tayo. I have always felt the same way, we Africans have a serious inferiority complex. It does not matter who made us poor or sick..it is still our problem. We MUST create our own solutions for these problems. The first thing we need is to love ourselves dearly and be proud of who we are. Loving ourselves means doing aware with systemic corruption and getting rid of selfish politicians and making borders disappear.
It only takes one to visit a places like Mombasa - Coastline or Kenya's Savannah and just realize how blessed we are. We have a beautiful continent but more so we have the warmest and happiest people on earth.
MI is the best rap lyricst Africa has ever had.
Mode9 has entered the chat.
Cap
🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of the most intelligent rapper in Africa, I love listening to him speak, he's definitely one of the people in Nigeria I can't wait to meet.
This young man is really brilliant and intelligent. Much love to you from Gambia 🇬🇲
"I consider myself a smart guy,but to run a company is more of that..."
"My music flows from the conversations I am constantly having"
"It's like a dream that got interrupted by a graphic nightmare"
"Nigerians obfuscate information.Its called information assymetry"
"The idea that you are born into a culture and religion is a crazy idea"
"The human race evolved from us,and we are the source code for genetic truth about where we are coming from-and about human biology"
Mheeeeeeen, this is full package, M.I is soo intelligent👌
I opened this with the intention of coming back to watch later. MI is so charismatic and composed that I was enjoying hearing himspeak and couldn't go back. Lol, I watched every second of this video; big ups Tayo, salute MI.
Almost the same thing i did. I saw the notification about this video like 3 weeks ago and was just procrastinating about watching. Safe to say, this is the most powerful conversation i have read or heard for a very long time. Like i needed reminding how intelligent MI is. This was really inspirational. Plus i love that cafe.
Damn! I love this guy's mindset. Powerful!!
Tayo, I'm an older person living here in the capital city of the USA. I have to say this video had me stuck, I couldn't move you asked all the right questions and his answers were very enlightening. He as well as you are two people that I could listen to talking about the state of Nigeria, Africa. I love that he made me think about things regarding the hurt and pain that sometimes causes people to lash out and not always do everybody understand.
I clicked so fast because judging by his tweets on Twitter, one can tell he’s incredibly smart and intelligent. I can tell he has great insight and this interview would be nothing short of intellect. Listen to the way he speaks, a lot of Nigerian artistes need to emulate him. Not everytime “speaking nonsense lyrics that make little to no sense and pulling stupid dance moves” that are supposedly appealing to a selected “very shallow-minded Nigerian populace”
You have spoken but Most you mentioned a tribe
@@akintundekehindedare4083 corrected.
By the type of artist he signs you can tell he is good, take the likes of Ckay and Blaqbones for example, those two beings are not ordinary at all.
@@Eaglezlanding interesting. I didn’t know they were signed to his label. That explains Blaqbonez weirdness haha.
We are Africans..the tone of his voice gave it a whole new level..
"We're Africans"... that challenges our comportment
Tayo, 24mins with MI Abaga is not enough.
Definitely not enough. It seemed like 1minute.
I wish there was a way to broadcast this conversation in every African school. As a grown woman, I know how impactful this conversation, especially MI’s description of Africans, had on me. We really don’t know or understand our greatness, it’s a tragedy.
I think we can start by making it well known on sm
@@connelasikong8069 yes definitely, I have been sharing since I watched yesterday
@@MonicaEzue same here then that leads to the next step, start a conversation. Even if a school could agree it'd be nice
i do agree with you. lets start the change it might not yield immediate change, but i will be the spark of the change to come.
Wow, I picked on the second advice “there is always an effect of doing things the wrong way, it might be fast but there is an effect, maybe not immediately but eventually” 👏🏽👏🏽
I never wanted this conversation to end. I so much love MI for many years now. I like his philosophy about life, something he proves to be very good at in this video.
Thank you so much Mr. T for making this video for us.
Peace!
Not only you, bro.
"We have to do the right thing even though it's hard but that's the only option we got. Go to school, study, work hard, try, even when we fail try again and never give up". An out of the box insightful thinker, positive optimist and philosophical dude. Thanks Tayo for sharing this thought provoking conversation you had with this guy, it gave us a lot of answers concerning the black man's struggle, and challenges us to do a thorough self introspection. Keep up the good work, despite all the challenges. Your line of questioning was on point. 👌👍👍
... Try telling Hush Pupi that!... Just saying... It's all about changing the MIND SET... Period!!!
@@HM-ls5eg you and M.I are saying the same thing.
Even though doing things the right way is harder, do it. ✌✌ Worded. MI you're such an inspiration.
Totally!!
Thisssss
Rappers are so deep. Thanks Tayo for bringing MI ❤️
MI... Wow. I love his way of thinking.. he is so grounded and poised. Very intelligent.. 🙌🏽🤝🏽 great content as per usual Tayo.👊🏾❤️🇿🇦
This guy speaks intelligently in such a way that you feel that he really believes what he is saying and not just rhetorics! Nice one
I pray this video gets the millions and millions of views and likes that it deserves 🙏
MI is super smart and need more platform to express himself, 5 years from now he will be super huge all over Africa and the world. Nice content Tayo ....
Watching this podcast right now, and I was totally blown away. just had to pause and drop this comment. This is one of the most amassing content I've seem on TH-cam in recent times. How you put all these together is mind bugling , the sync between you and your guess, the editing, choice of location and everything in between. I must say you and your team are truly amassing, I love Watching your videos, keep it coming, you're doing a great job.
Intelligence that goes beyond rap. M.I is always king...👑👑👑
As a Liberian and a big fan of Tayo, I just wanna thank you for this incredible interview. I learned a lot and got motivated.
"The weather sits on your skin" I really love that expression. Always a fan. Well done Tayo
This guy is the most brilliant interviewed Africana nd African artist I've seen yet on any African TH-camrs interviews.
JUDE ABAGA... THIS MAN CHANGED MY LIFE 💖
This is one of the very few inspiring conversations I wish it would never end.
This was a great conversation, love from Grenada 🇬🇩 , in the Caribbean
I'm just astonished by the well-thought-out responses to the questions from M.I.
One of the only Nigerian rapper who can express his experiences through his music. Good communicator, good story teller, well spoken, and very educated.
"The difference between where you are and where you want to be is information..." M.I Abaga. Amazing
I appreciate how MI thinks!
This is necessary. Give M.I his flowers!! Thank you Tayo❤
Wasn't expecting anything less.MI is the smartest artist in Nigeria.
Mehn! What more can I add?! The comment section have said it all. We are lucky to have MI as a Nigerian. Nigeria isn't all cursed after all! My take home today is to acquire more information by reading more. It's helps and takes one places. It's very evident in the man, Mr Incredible! ❤️
Mi literally opened tap and intelligence was just flowing freely.
People like Tayo are the reason we have hopes for Africa. Too many negativity about Africa and Nigeria and it’s good to hear positive things about Africa
MI is not just a rapper but also an Adviser and positive moral life promoter! It's so nice to see him talk about history and philosophy cos this subject matters builds our integrity and our capacity to so right! Weldone Aina and thank you Mr.incredible 🙏🙏🙏
He's a thinker
I like him❤️✨
MI is THE rapper. Still listen to his songs till dats
Tayo, You need to bring MI back. I have gone through some of the comments and it's like he should continue.
I believe we need to have a conversation on our country Nigeria. We need someone like him to mobilize the Youth in the right direction. Yes, our past leaders and even some current ones have let us down. I believe this guys will have the right word or statement to ginger us on the positive lane. We need to shift from NEGATIVE to POSITIVE for the love of our country. We cannot continue to cut our nose to spite our face. That is what we have done in the past years and up until now. We need to pick up our pieces, forgive ourselves and work together as ONE BIG NIGERIA family. The entire black race is looking up to Nigeria for leadership and direction. We cannot afford to let them down. Yes our leaders have betrayed us. But for how long shall we continue to grumble, complain and murmur about it?
I declare my LOVE openly today for MI ... and I believe very strongly that he has a role to play in building LOVE BRIDGE between the old and the young Nigerians in order to move Nigeria forward. The time is now.
MI, in case you read this message. You cannot afford to retire now. This interview has done one thing, reveal your true calling why God made you a black man and a Nigerian. We need you at the center of Nigeria. You have the WORD and the MUSIC to pass the timely message across of ONE NIGERIA and ONE AFRICA.
We MUST UNITE AS A NATION. We must transit from HATE to LOVE ... We are not denying the fact that we have gone through a horrible past and even in the present, but our background is not strong enough to tie us to the ground permanently.
Let's shake it off. The time is now.
God bless you, Tayo and MI
NOTE: Why not make the next video a LIVE INTERVIEW on your channel and entertain some questions. It is possible and doable.
Its good to see that MI is alive and doing well! I was wondering what happened to him because the Naija music has gotten a little bit too dull without his artistic contribution. But its definitely great to see that he also has other projects going, and I can't wait for his next album. Great job for digging him out...like only you could.
I'm actually not expecting anything lesser than the best though. but I must confess again Tayo you are really doing a great job. God bless you for always feeding us with the right info. Please I'll be glad too if we can have a One Million apartment here in Nigeria just like Wode Maya did to help us the upcoming content creators.
You are such a motivation to me and the reason why I never planned to give up even the result I desire has not come to manifestation. Don't stop keep feeding us with the right information I believe Nigeria can still and will still be great again if we can have more of this heart in the creative industry among the youths. God Bless!
Thank you! I really enjoyed this vlog…..it’s all about the mindset…..Truly very proud to be an African🇬🇭
Tayo bring M.I. on again when he starts his various endeavours and podcasts, he's really a special, intelligent man
i think MR ABAGA should be interviewed more often all round....he spoke deep sha..... one love ..
God bless you Both. MI is such a wise person
Small but mighty, that’s why we call him Mr incredible 🔊❤️
Tayo, the edits throughout this interview were amazing!
Truly. Every video is more professional. I keep worrying that we're going to lose him to some corporate soon. He's too good!
Tayo I love you content always and m.i is really really loads watching from Andria city 🇮🇹
The hustle is real... People only see the finished product and don't really care about the work that went into it.
This man is soo intelligent and I had a lot to take way from all the wise words he said

MI is indeed very intelligent! I love having conversations with people and also listen to conversations like this because it opens the mind
Mehn!!... You're comment is everywhere. I'm wondering why you're not part of The Tribe which is the only organised fan base of MI, recognised by him
@@nkpoutoeshiet9632 I was just amazed with how much wisdom he was spilling, plus I comment for a living 😂😂
Loved the advice..... i grabbed alot from the "Old man" 🦅🙏💯💙 . Just changed my mindset.... P.s i had a jotter all through the video... thanks Tayo..🥺
I can't stop smiling. I can't stop smiling. 🥰☺️
"The Guy" really knows himself. The confidence, humility, intelligent etc. I'm speechless. I miss this man so much.
M.I is just the best, not only lyrically but also intelligence as well. I can see why he is the greatest African Rapper of all Time. Just look at the gems of wisdom he was dishing out.
After listening to MI on TED, I knew he was an entreprenural genius becuse staying relevant in rap music for this long isnt just about rap skills.
I have always been a fan of MI. He is a great person and artist. Hey Tayo, do you think can interview Falz as well.
My Goat ...Mi Abaga ...what a man...i love this man
Wow wow ..what an interview, the questions like m said are very intelligent ones and well picked ..wow kudos man
It’s the cap for me 😅
Tayo, thanks for bringing this video with your interview with M.I . It was very interesting, you guys covered the issues that needed to be highlighted. We as Nigerians are strong, and we need to see ourselves as one nation, brothers and sisters who are proud of our country, and our mindset needs to shift away from the west. Great interview. May both of you be blessed abundantly.🙏🏽
No lie, I’m highly inspired and motivated by listening to this great interview.....M.I the greatest rapper on the planet. Thank you so much
The best in Africa.... Naija to the world 🌎
Tayo, thank you for this!! Have loved MI since he first started rapping. In my opinion he is the best rapper in Africa. Was a bit disappointed when he stepped to the background but this conversation explains why. He made such phenomenal points about all the questions you asked. I'm really looking forward to the Talk about It Podcast. Thanks Tayo for giving us a window into our home. It's makes such a difference for those of us in the diaspora. Forever a fan!
Doing things the right way is harder no doubt, eg trying to grow my channel is no joke at all, but putting in the work, I know the result would be beautiful in no time ☺️
God bless your hustle 🙏
@@amandaeguale1641 thank you so much.
This conversation is really educative, M.I is very intelligent and talks with facts. From Bayelsa State Nigeria 🇳🇬.
This has been incredible to watch.
Super intelligent take on everything. We need more content like this.
MI should put himself out there more. He has a message this generation needs to hear
Hey Tayo, thanks for this video and I am sorry my comment is coming late. The last 4 videos leading up to this one has been a journey, thank you for the positivity you feed me with.
While MI was talking I saw an older version of myself, and it made me strong . I can’t wait to grow wise.
He has this unique understanding about humanity, something I preach to a lot of people daily. Imagine if everyone saw just the humanity and nothing else…
God bless you jare🙌🏽
The interview we did not expect. Tayo!!!!!
Africa rapper number one such an intelligent guy, thank you tayo for inviting him, sending love from PARIS 🇨🇵🇨🇵
Jukun man is very intelligent.
Tayo Aina, your questions were really well thought of. Great convo
Absolutely fantastic how Ml articulate himself 🙏
