Saying that Jidenna is trying to latch on to being African because of current hype is super unfair when dude was introduced to the the public 5 years ago wearing bespoke ankara suits and making songs talking about being Igbo.
You people will laugh at your parents’ generation’s ways of thinking, while having access to twice the information that they did, only to still end up twice as closed minded as they are. Wonders shall never cease
No one can’t stand Kendall more than me but y’all circulating a video of him in a compromising position, if true, is really crazy, especially knowing that Love Island has the history of suicide and mental health problems that it does
Shallipopi not having his visa situated before annnouncing his international tour is actually restoring the feeling. Do y’all want

afrobeats back or nah💀
Being in large cities where you’re forced to unlook and move past huge numbers of homeless people every day because you can’t physically help everyone is unnatural and really does something to the human spirit
I’ve said it before, super churchy men are the worst because there’s never any accountability lol they’ll blame their indiscretions and failings on the devil/demons
Banky W did not drop “Lagos Party” damn near two decades ago for yall to think people just now started going out in Nigeria because of IJGB tiktoks 😂😂😂
This whole p with behind the scenes activism vs “social media” activism doesn’t hit the same when the government is trying to suppress the public/international community from knowing what’s happening
Understanding Igbo and not knowing how to speak might be more annoying lol because the way my brain goes completely blank when it’s time to try and say anything in igbo is just weird 😭
Local man discovers that people who are only preoccupied with their own personal comfort might be happier than those worried about the world being a shitty place for others. More at 11
Let’s be honest with ourselves. The black socialist on this app seem to be in a perpetual state of rage, while the black capitalist seem to be enjoying life to the fullest. It seems like no brainer to pick what side you want to be on.
People listening to Afropop that haven’t been to Lagos before will hear some of these artists sing about “island girls” and be imagining babes drinking from coconuts with seashells in their hair instead of someone suffering through Freedom way traffic and Lekki water lmao😭
I get it but it’s weird. People that are bonafide popstars on a continent of over 1billion people being rebranded as new/breakout stars in the west will always be weird to me
I don’t know if it’s a big deal, but I hate the term “breakout star” when used by the west. they did this with BTS & kpop & now I’m seeing it here.
calling tiwa & the rest breakout stars when they’re easily the most influential artistes on the continent is 🤪🤪

episode is especially wild as a Nigerian millennial when you remember that once upon a time the only way that we were seen/brought up on a mainstream level was Lil Wayne’s “tougher than Nigerian hair” line. The way that things switch up is such a mindfuck

Brian does it look like i give a fuck about you, your crooked hairline or ya rageddy flag. Lol if you want me to leave so badly buy my ticket, simple.
It’s also interesting how a lot of them really disassociate from the fucked up things they do. So if they’re abusive or whatever it’s because of “the devil,” no accountability
I find religious men to be a red flag. A bright red one. Especially religious men who are patriarchal and believe in their dominance over women. The ones who prioritize being heads over the homes, and speak about submission. The ones who call you their rib, and their helpmeets.
Can’t lie davido might be the only artist doing afrobeats that still sounds original everyone else has adopted a western sound and it’s sounding so watered down
