Blah Blah Blah

I love music with all my heart, body and soul so I’m not here to criticize music or any form of art. I believe music is art besides what have I sang eh? So let me just go straight to the point. There are certain things that amaze me about some songs. You know how you hear some songs and you’re wondering ‘really?’, like when Ellie Goulding said ‘’you’re the color of my blood’’ in her ‘’love me like you do’’ or when Uhuru said ‘’you’re the beginning and the end’’ in Uhuru and Wizkid’s ‘’Ungowami’’ (I don’t know if I spelt it correctly and I’m too lazy to google).

When I heard Ellie Goulding’s phrase, I know she was being deep and all but part of me was asking ‘how can someone be the color of your blood?’, do you mean like blue, black, red or whatever color of blood there is? But Wizkid’s song was supposed to be a love song but his phrase was a ‘’God phrase” as far as I’m concerned but again, that’s a deep phrase, very deep I must say.
Another thing that amuses me is when artists say something like “you gotta come out for this one” in their songs so I’m like ‘which one?’ especially when you said it in the song before that one and the one before that and so on. And when they say something like ‘I usually don’t do this but…’, I’m like ‘sigh, what do you usually do abi what is the ‘this’ that you don’t usually do?’

I remember someone complaining about deejays who says something like ‘’so who’s here to party?’’ at parties. All in all, it’s what makes it interesting, right? So what’s the worst thing that you’ve heard an artist say? Oh I know it’s only in music videos that they promise what they don’t have or they claim to have what they don’t but I’m sure you’ve heard something else I didn’t mention, please share with us.

Who Says There Are No Pervs In Church?

Dear OTTH readers, how are we? I spent my weekend resting and going through dorisaniunoh.blogspot.com, you know as a writer, one shouldn't depend on themselves, so every now and then, I go through other blogs because not only do I learn a lot from them, they also inspire me to write something. I love reading from Doris' blog because like me, she writes real life stuff, something I could actually relate to not how Davido got robbed and the likes. I've been meaning to write about this in a while but procrastination won't let me but today I have bound the spirit hence here it is. I'm certain we all know who a perv is but just incase we don't, perv is the shortform for the word "pervert" and it refers to someone who's sexually obsessed according to Google and that's about what it means so I guess we all get the picture and we'd understand better as we proceed. I've always thought pastors would at least act like pastors no matter the tempt...

Na From Clap, Dance Dey Start

Good morning my loves, welcome to 2016. This is our first post this year so I’m supposed to be very excited but the issue I want to discuss is not one that gives room for such excitement. Of course, I’m excited that you can read this right now, that you came all the way from 2015 into 2016. It wasn’t an easy trip but we’re all here finally. Thank you so much for your love. Now to the business of the day. In a world of women and men, yes I put women first because I’m a woman just in case you were wondering why or maybe you didn’t even notice, the fate of a woman depends on the woman not the man and this is no merlin line. I’m really hurt right now and I’m too hurt to not speak up. I’m not a romantic person for reasons I don’t know but for some reason I’m grateful for it. I’m saying this because I’ve seen what people call love in action and it makes me wonder if it really is love. I’m not going to dispute the fact that I’ve also made my mistakes, I mean, we all have our stupid moments ...

The Hustle Of Many Colors

We are all "hustlers" before we become "chillers" whether we want to admit it or not. Some of us are in the corporate world, some on the streets, some in market places and some are in places I can't name. Some of us are dressed in suits, some in rags, some are dressed casually while some are dressed in clothes I can't even classify under any of the aforementioned categories. When I see people put up pictures saying "Lord bless my hustle" or "Oluwa bless my hustle", I just say 'amen' on behalf of whoever put up the picture. I'm very emotional right now because I've seen hustle at its peak. I remember entering a bus somewhere, I was the only passenger in the bus. The conductor did everything possible to get more passengers but all his efforts proved abortive. The driver then said "sorry aunty, we no dey go, we no see passenger" and I had to go with another bus. I could see the disappointment on his face, I wished...
