10 Disappointing Lyrics (Vol 1)

Welcome to the maiden edition of 10 Disappointing Lyrics. Before I proceed, I would like say that these are not bad artists. On the contrary, they are artists we have all come to love and respect. We are therefore disappointed that they would pen down such lines.
So every month, I will make a list of 10 disappointing lines from the Nigerian music scene. The period these lines were made public is irrelevant, so on the same list we could have a line from a song released in 2001 and another in 2011. No one would be spared from this list: No one! Without further ado, let’s proceed.
10. “I floss with no flaws like Z. E. E.” (Zee – I no send you Remix (Femcees Version))
 Someone please explain that line to me because I really don’t understand what she was trying to say. The Capital Hill Signee was probably reminding us of the spelling of her name: although I’m not sure that was the best way to tell us.
9. “Because I’m yellow doesn’t mean it’s only yellow divas” (Naeto-C – 123 Remix)
Am I missing something or is Naeto now the same color with MTN? Maybe my eyes deceive me.
8. “Even when I’m dead and Gone, I’m d best rapper alive” (Terry tha Rapman – Soldier)
If I am correct, Terry either believes in re-incarnation or plans to continue spitting in hell or heaven after he dies. Or how else would he be the best rapper alive after he dies?
7. “Like Kevin, a Little would have me tempted to touch” (Pherowshuz – Gbele)
Haba Phero! You are meant to know that the song “Tempted to Touch” was performed by Rupee and not Kevin Little …you no try.
6. “If the devil wears Prada then his demons in my Closet” (Proto – Big Boy Remix)
I’m still wondering how the devil wears his demons – still wondering.
5. “On top of the world like an apostrophe” (Vector – Come Back)
Don’t know where Vector lives, because when last I checked, the earth didn’t have an apostrophe on it. Think I need to watch Discovery Channel more often.
4. “I get those who rip flows to cop shows” (Kel – Naija’s Hardest Pt. 2)
Still scratching my head over this one and still no progress: I just don’t get it!
3. “Flirting foolishly with propane, few foetus remain” (Godwon – Confusion)
 Very confusing indeed. I’m finding it very hard to see the correlation between a foetus and a kind of gas.
2. “They accelerate from the top to zero” (M. I. – Braggin Rights Pt. 2)
 I’m no physicist oh but obviously, neither is M. I. At least I’m sure you can’t accelerate to something lower. Where’s P. N. Okeke when u did it, damn!!
1. “Before my poor liver gets Salvaged, by the shock of scary things way dey this passage” (Olamide – Going In)
And Olamide needs Intensive English text book. Or maybe just a dictionary because I know “salvage” means to save whatever is left of something. So can shock do that to your liver? I didn’t think so. Guess he meant to say “damage”.
There you have it folks. Hope you enjoyed it – I certainly did. No offence to all artists on this list – still love you all. Till next month, take care and God bless. Peace.
