This is Nigeria

avatar

A whole lot of things are happening in the world right now. Especially in my country Nigerian who are collating their 2023 election results and I have to say it's nothing less than comedic😂😂😂
It's one of the most trending topics this year and with a lot of good reasons too..
So today I'm gonna share 3 songs about Nigeria, why not join the trend for a change😂😂.

T͟h͟i͟s͟ I͟s͟ N͟i͟g͟e͟r͟i͟a͟ ~ F͟a͟l͟z͟


This parodical remix of This is America, a song by Childish Gambino, has to be the highlight of the post.
Falz using his well structured lines, spoke on all the vices troubling our country and although the song is four years old, it's still pretty much accurate.

Just to show how sad the situation has become 😭

I won't explain anything more, best for you to hear all about Nigeria by yourself 🙂


2͟0͟-1͟0͟-2͟0͟ ~ B͟u͟r͟n͟a͟ B͟o͟y͟


This day was really a sad day for Nigeria, one which no youth quickly forget.
It could even be said go be the driving force in this year's election, for it's what incited the spark in the general public that there must be a change.

Burna Boy created a marvelous piece as both a tribute and a war cry for this day.
A day to remember, a day we would never forget.

20th of October, 2020.


M͟a͟n͟ I͟n͟ T͟h͟e͟ M͟i͟r͟r͟o͟r͟ ~ M͟i͟c͟h͟a͟e͟l͟ J͟a͟c͟k͟s͟o͟n͟


Now this last song was a hard one to pick, indeed we need a change in our country.
A change so we could choose better leaders, a change so we would choose not to accept bribes, a change to say no to tribalism and nepotism.
That kind of changes has to start with us though, has to start with you, every single person individually, and although maybe Nigeria is in the spotlight now.
I think this kind of vile behavior could happen to any country out there and the same way I think it can be conquered.
All we need is to not lose hope and focused to make a change.

Of course I would like to call on @ablaze the host of this lovely competition.

Music sharing is indeed a blessed thing, different tunes just help those happy hormones, you know 🙂

@blanchy who's still on a high after Tottenham handed Chelsea their arses last week😂😂😂
@hannes-stoffel the German dude whose tunes have a great beat but I never understand what they're saying 😂😂

Till my next Blog 🤗✨

The election, say no more, I know from some Nigerians what is happening and it is sad. Seems the country is as corrupt it not more so than when I used to work there.

Burna Boy I have listened to a few songs. The Falz was a great remix and was not expecting that hehe!

OMG @seki1. I gotta listen to more people about more things. The videos by Falz and Childish Gambino were stunning. Not just the music but the choreography.

Childish Gambino is new to me and I can't believe I am ignorant of such a talent. Wow. Thanks.

😂 your welcome @agmoore, to be honest I don't really follow Childish Gambino very well, so I don't know many more of his songs😂😂

Glad you liked the tunes though, you haven't done your LMAC yet?
Or I missed it😅

I am addicted to LMAC. I just turn the collage in late since I don't compete in the contest.

As for This Is America--my daughter tells me my granddaughter really likes that song. You have opened a bridge for me... 😅

Corruption is almost everywhere @seki1. It is just better hidden in some countries than others. Sorry to hear about the trials and tribulations of life in Nigeria. You have a good outlook and positivity- stay that way. Could you work and look to save up money to move somewhere else for a while? A good education might help to make that possible, so keep that head in the books as best you can.

Great mix of tunes for the message you were trying to convey this week, thanks as always for sharing them with us.
