    Who agrees that the entire concept (lyrics, video, arts, and parts) of this song simply shows that M.I. is one of the few rappers who still read books before they write songs. His education portrays itself effortlessly and his arts is refined by both his personality (which includes his philosophy) and his knowledge! He's a genius, a master of his arts. And you are either a master of your arts or you quit the trade.

    MI, The Greatest Nigerian rapper of all times,Greater African rapper till date. N scantily clad girls, no blings, just a sing that hooks the soul, and carry you along. One thing i like about this guys rap is that he carries you along, its a story, hell it felt this was a song about me. M.I Abaga, i long for the day i get to see the greatest intellectually sound rapper in Africa. In a world saturated with crap, this is a breath of fresh air. Thank you M.I, for this song.

I love the concept of shooting Chigurl's part in that faux old school native ("igbotic") gospel music video style. It really blended with the music. Great work all around!.

    is funny how Africans are just moved by the English language, anything English on a beat is best... funny...
    is sad because this folks trying to rap in English does not move any foreign rappers, they do that all the time on the streets...
    M.I is good, no doubt, I like him personally, but please my Nigerian folks, never make that mistake of comparing M.I to Sark. these are two guys on a way different level.
    sark is arguably the best native tongue rapper in Africa... period

      Can't even lie. M.I is a beast. The only Nigerian Rapper I listen to. What joey b was trying to say is, there are lot of rap artists in the Ghanaian industry compared to the Nigerian industry. Which is true. Majority of the hit songs, that come out from Nigeria is not rap.

    • @nanpongambo7608
      @nanpongambo7608 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Guudbuud Nigerians have tried pure rap but it didn't sell that's why most rap artists in Nigeria incorporated a lot of pop in their music. The rap artists in Ghana are making peanuts compared to them.

    • @guudbuuddmceas4833
      @guudbuuddmceas4833 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Exactly Nanpon, I won't argue about that. They making more Guap. You can do your research about the state of the Ghanaian industry now, it's more of a rap thing, and the youth are responding well to it. Nigerian artistes are making more money no doubt, but I only see M.I being the only rap figure who never changed his form of art, and still getting the recognition.

You actually stated the fact and educated us more. I believe if we keep replying ourselves in like manner, the rest of the world will look at Africa differently. Respect bro.
