Make dem give buju kwale weed smoke. He never see better igbo smoke for a long time. Leave the washed out retired and tired man for one corner…
I'm a potential footballer that have nowhere and nothing to advance to my career, me being a footballer is just a key to my other dream which I wouldn't like to share much of it with you not because I'm rude; but because I belief that less talk and more work can make one achieve heavy dreams.
Alot of people laugh at me if I say I believe I will one day change nigeria and Africa at large, but I think with faith one can move a mountain, I therefore targeted some of my dreams as key to others, i beg you to please help me from you or any other nigerians that can help me with travelling fees to come to england or anyother football cherishing countries to train in their academies and gain better chance to become a footballer and achieve my childhood dreams, please help me; GOD the most high gats your back too. Thanks sir
## HELP THE BOY, HELP THE DREAMS##
Still waiting Mazi for the bolt wahala between Nigerians and South Africa.
Smart talk.. wisdom bro.. this dudes don't know how to respect their elders.. Africa is the ancestral home of africans around the world.. your are african before you became anything else.. respect and protect home, the motherland.. music started from africa..
Oga you dey tan rubbish,this type of dumb comical mindset is why we don't progress. I don't agree with all juju said,however the part where he said afrobeat has no substance was definitely spot on.
lol what has his music done for Jamaicans? Most men and women in Jamaica are lost; weed smoking, mental illness associated with weed smoking so high, aggressive, crime and violence so high, unaliving each other is extremely common and high over there, teenage pregnancy 🤰 is so high
Buju has spent some time in jail; how has his music helped him? He should stop the hypocrisy and pointing fingers.
Does buju even tour in Africa? Nope! Correct me if I am wrong
Not surprised that again DJ Pakorich will disagree with Buju Banton without in-depth analysis of the statement, just to please his Nigerian subscribers who feel attacked.
Reggae was and is still far more uplifting and spiritual than Afrobeats to the global black issues. Afrobeats lacks positive messages and barely talks about issues affecting the youth of Africa, who are the major listeners. Even Burna Boy said something similar last year and took heat for saying that.
Fela was popular worldwide not solely because of his Afrobeat, but because he talked politics and even got into trouble for that. Bob Marley and other great reggae stars had many uplifting songs about the black struggles and liberation from oppression and colonization.
Afrobeats needs to improve the lyrics and promote Africa and give hope to the youth.
But I would finally add that there’s a little jealousy from Buju. Dancehall and reggae are not as popular.
You are very funny my Guy…😂😂😂😂 love from Naija
Afrobeat sis about joy and happiness mr BUJU should get lost with his jealousy. I smell envy
Buju is Ghanaian 😂
you cant even force people to include you in what they do
Was Calypso,R&B,Dancehall uplifting? He is obviously not listening properly not be listening to Afrobeats but emotionally biased. If Afrobeats is not uplifting,then don't listen to it. There are other genres in Africa you have option to listen. Genres doesn't have to be from outside the continent to be accepted. He mentioned Fela and the other fir being conscious. The question is how many people were listening to Fela and others. He mentioned? Those He mentioned were not as known all over like Davido or Burna boy. Buju Barton is reacting due to success Afrobeats is receiving. Pure jealousy, the brother is reflecting. Pure bitterness. Every arts has its period, this Afrobeats period.
Big up king😂
Till date the king of England still ruleing jamica, what is buju doing about it.
Well said brother
He is just not well informed. He only knows about the Nigerian top players but we have a handful that are afrobeats that are inspirational & revolutionary but obviously it is within the Nigerian space e.g musicians like Idris Abdulkarim, Tuface, African China, late Sound Sultan and (others I have forgoten their names). We have revolutionary musicians but they are not widely known outside Nigeria.
Love from Italy Nigeria ❤❤❤❤❤
Buju sound like he just got out of jail,bro,life has moved forward from the era of Shabba Ranks pls
I WILL NOT BE SURPRISE TO UNCLE BUJU OPINION 😂😂…NAME ME ONE JAMAICAN ARTISTS THAT HAVE EVER PRAISE AFROBEAT SINCE IT COME TO SPOT LIGHT OF WORLD MUSIC??….THEY SEE IT AS AN ENERMY TO DANCE HALL ..AFROBEATS AS TAKE THE PLACE OF DANCE HALL MUSIC AND NO TURNING BACK😂😂😂….WE AFRICANS LOVE JAMAICA MUSIC BUT PLEASE STOP CRITISIZEING OUR MUSIC..IF YOU CANT BEAT THEM JOIN THEM😂😂..ONE❤
Buju got a point, but the context he used to say it was the problem. I Know artist got the voice to potray the happenings in africa and share love. But maan Buju those who had conscience music died poor and couldn't even have anything to pass down their generations. Aprt from their legendary, Burna boy low key had sang about the consciences of his country and the foundational faults and where we got wrong. Guess what? That song didnt even make his greatest song of all times and dont even have the hit status. So my man same way buju had your time and moved away from conscience music to party play and airwaves. Trust me that money you made from it made you good good now
What's his problem with Afrobeat..?
Read about the originator of Afrobeat (Fela Anikulapokuti) to know what he was all about with his music.. No other musicians has faced court charges or imprisonment like Fela. His mother Funmi was thrown down from the storey, all because of his activism through music.
All he did with his music was instrumental at that time by being a pin in the necks of our political leaders but did he succeed in reshaping them..? NO!
It's the same testimony with Reggae Artist/Music upon all their messages, because am a big fan of Reggae beat myself.
So, don't blame anyone that focus on entertaining audience rather than pursuing/continuing a particular struggle that has never yielded any result as far as Africa or black nations is concerned.
Music is also a business and, Nigerians understand the business part of it than any other black nations. Take it or leave it..👌
Was Buju uplifting africa during his time?… No
He was full of himself, carrying women up and down … Today he’s on retirement and turned to a teacher of Africa upliftment 😅😂
