talking the talk

"It is not power that corrupts but fear. fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it"
those are the words spoken by Aung San Suu Kyi(political activist) those words are also the only explanation i could give to the shabang thats happening in southern africa today. i know im meant to blog about fun stuff but its hard to ignore the happenings in a certain country thats looking to set new standards for a failed state.

anyway, back to fun stuff. is it just me or is there a viral infection spreading in the name of ASA. she has been around for a minute(once upon a time i listened to her songs at work for 10 hrs straight) and due to my binge listening antics, DUDURADIO has been blocked by our IT dept. oooffffing eefffers! i call it a viral infection because even my fellow nigerians who would normally consider speaking yoruba or anything close to it as being local, razzzzz etc are bumping their heads to her songs and Gongo So by 9ice. short story summarized, "RAZZZZZ is the NEW COOL" but the flip side to this could be that everyone and their twins are tired of these naija artists singing about money and KELE's although most of them signed "SLAVE CONTRACTS" that wont allow them make as much as they should be making. but some things have to be kept the way they are, the fans built these lil monsters and the artists are only keeping up with the monsters their fans have built.

Can someone please tell MAMA CHELSEA and her MARATHON RUNNER rival to cut out all their bullManure already(actually its too late for that now) back in january i had said that these twice people should sort it out between themselves, basically cook up somn where one is president and the other takes vice-president. but NO they just had to play though guy till now, thus allowing their bullManure to start giving off perfume. e.g. marathon runners ex-pastor's comment bruhaha and MAMA CHELSEA's Sniper attack LIE.

Pennsylvania primary is on tuesday. make we see wetin go happen cos at this time T, junction J and point P. i'd really wanna know who either of them would pick as vice if they end up getting the nomination. i saw a clip from their debate few days ago when they were asked if they could make each other vice and i couldnt figure out what answer they both gave as answers cos they linked it up to a whole bunch of anything else.


anywho, i'll be back with gist about my vacation, YEAH I WAS ON VACATION FOR A MINUTE. till i come your way again, i remain engineerAYO FFF, BBC, CNN, AIT, NTA, MITV, DBN, the adopted step grandson of her royal wineness.

Yessie said...

Razz is the new cool? I don't get why speaking ur language or in this case singing in ur language would be referred to as being razz. That's a little ignorant if u ask me. I'm not yoruba so my feelings on this have nothing to do with that.

tobenna said...

duduradio?
never heard of it.
checking it out now.
Asa so rocks...
As well as a whole bunch of Nigerian musicians. WHatever language they speak.

Yessie said...

@ sting, i'll say he got the title "razz is the new cool" from the oladele (artist's) album title, which is how the said artist explained how he got the title... its not so much chiefo saying speaking ur language is razz. get it?

hope that explains it

ChiefO said...

@sting, maibe you kinda misconstrued my point. i never said singing in yoruba or any other language for that matter was an act of razzness. its far from it. i know of people, born and bred in nigeria who cant say a word from any of the native languages to save their lives. its no fault of theirs but in a situation where their parents made speaking mamacooler (vernacular) a tabbooooo while growing up. then i guess odikwa serious. the phrase razz is the new cool has to do more with the fact that nigerians are more comfy conversing in their native tongue or simply getting caught singing a song thats sung in yoruba or igbo or hausa etc.

@yessie, Danke jare. thanks for understanding where im coming from.

ChiefO said...

tobenna, u havent heard of duduradio? impossicant! ok, hope u have heard of radiopalmwine?

NaijaScorpio said...

Alright, i stand corrected. My apologies. I guess i was kinda pissed at that statement cos i've heard someone refer to Gongo Aso as razz cos i guess the yoruba in the song is deep or something like that.

ChiefO said...

apologies accepted. i guess we are in the same school when it comes to our opinion about all these individuals who "dont eat swallow". ask me wat dat is in case u dont know.

Today's ranting said...

Asa is da bomb mhen! I love her music, her cool voice and originality. Oh you forgot to add RIP. lol!

temmy tayo said...

@today's ranting: RIP ke? She dead?

Vera Ezimora said...

Afrobabe said...
