@Gentleman rich in thr right places as in?

i think it's about time we see your picture!

eldee:

Hehehe . . . he had two albums and one mixtape . . . M.I, Talk About It and Illegal Music, loads of collabos and features, if that's not enough to change direction then what is??
He has no identity?? Meaning he has refused to stick with one style for decades like your favourite emcee.

Abegi . . . M.I is the most musically talented rapper in Nigeria, restricting himself to your type of music will be a waste.

this woulda have been true 3 weeks ago but after hearing his new project, he is nowhere near the throne. i mean for a guy who spent most of his years in the continental usa, he should better. we both have ears. please explain the essence of the skits. granted, he was in a conversation with some kidnappers/bad guys. m.i. said he will triumph over them just to show that nigerians shouldn't give up their struggle to challenge our bad leaders. what is the correlation between m.i. and the bad guys and nigerians and their bad leaders? m.i's fans must be very dumb to accept that kind of discourse on an album. he should have made a documentary not chat poppycocks for one-third of an album making senseless conversation.

ada24:

stay at home - I was meant to go to Brent Cross, then I get a text that its closed. This snow is not a joke this year o!!

the roads have not been gritted cos the snow fell very quickly and can u imagine that one of the busiest airports in the world - Heathrow has been closed - thats when u know its serious. All my friends and family that ventured out this morning are now stuck at their various locations.

heathrow is paralysed, gatwick is paralysed, the underground is paralysed, st pancras and paddington are paralysed. london has effectively closed down - this country is useless when it comes to dealing with adverse weather. one would have thought a country as organised as this would put proper arrangement in place to curb such but pssssf! germany is colder and they are coping effectively with their winter.

eldee:

Isn't there a trend in this, you guys have a type of music you consider good, any minor deviation is bad.
You did it with Jay-Z's Blueprint 3, all of Kanye's albums and now M.I. . . music is bigger than hiphop heads, the sooner you guys accept this the better.

you must have me mixed up with someone else. i am not sure i commented on jay-z's album or kanye. m.i. didn't deviate alittle. he completely turned 180 degrees with this nu joint and you gotta admit he miscued deviating after just one album. so what happens next? another deviation? in my opinion, m.i isn't really sure about what he wants to represent. he has no identity.

Mygoldie:

why my post code?

so i can resume duties within the next 2 hours.

waooo:

e bi lik say I dey single o

you are not even sure of your status? just great!

mygoldie, if you are serious drop your postcode.

eldee:

I see it's gang up against Eldee day on the Music Section.
I do understand where y'all are coming from, this is not an album for the hiphop fan, and M.I stated his intentions clearly.
Is it as good as TAI?? I don't think so . . . subjective. I said that many times?? Is it a different direction?? Yes . . . I noted that earlier too.

Now does M.I anything to prove to hiphop fans?? No . . . 'if you like my old ish buy my old album'.
He's succeeded in bringing the average Nigerian to hiphop, now he's taking hiphop to them. . . 'Number One' is probably your dad's favourite song, so is 'My belle oh', and 'One Naira' is banging on your sister's I-pod. . . even the 'best' lines on the album were the funny ones.

You can't call a man a failure for setting his own goal and achieving it. . . this has done much more for hiphop music in Nigeria than any other album out there, yep, tell them I said it.

Now you say I'm not being objective, but you're the one ignoring the fact that Afro-pop is a genre in it's own right, and has different criteria from hiphop. You're the one ignoring the fact that good music can exist without TAI metaphors, you're the one ignoring the fact that this is one of the most focussed albums in terms of direction, you're the one ignoring the fact that this guy talked to the Jos residents and Niger Deltans in a way they'll actually want to listen.

The only other people that have attempted this are the Eldees and Sound Sultans . . . but we all know not of them has had this huge impact.
So you guys can talk all you want, I'm happy to see a 'truly Nigerian' Nigerian rapper using a Nigerian concept and making a huge statement to Nigerians.

eldee, you need to stop this your sugarcoatedness. every time a rapper has dropped a wack album, you are always quick to tell us the rapper has taken a new direction. you did that plenty of times with kanye west's love lockdown. an album that would make biggie and 2pac cringe in their graves. it's not new direction or new invention. it's wackness. m.i. miscued with this new album.and those skits were errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. that album is meant for kindergarten kids, not for your types.

Mygoldie:

you too tall im just 5'9.

what's your postcode?

Mygoldie:

the guy should be six foot tall and handsome too,pls.

i qualify and i got money too. name your price!

Mygoldie:

I want an NL guy to celebrate this xmas with,please those of you who aint single,don't come on here to derial this post oh jare.
single guys only.

i'm also single.

the russians bribed the police and the local authority to cancel this match knowing they were out of form. rubbish! they are not even sure the snow will start tonight and they cancelled a game 27 hours to kick-off. what is so difficult in chelsea fans walking to the stadium in this favorable condition?

brucey wants him for keeps, fergie won't do that! however, i want welbeck to stay there till next summer. he is developing really well out there. if we take him back in january, he is going to rot on the bench once more and his development will stall. with all the bragging mumuface does here, united have the best kids in the land.

Ladyrsky46:

Tired of this silly weather disrupting everything. Was looking forward to tomorrow's match.

silly weather couldn't stop welbeck from punishing the trotters.

Carolece:

The percentage could be higher to what I see happening around me.
Its a problem alright, do you believe because most men are doing it its not a problem? I beg!

men cheat, women cheat. men break hearts, women break hearts. the op actually thought he must have a problem because he is doing it regularly and i am saying the act is quite prevalent. people cheat all the time including married folks.

stevo4shiz:

i dunno know if this thing is a curse or something else ooo,,,i go in2 a relationship,,mak them trust/luv me 2d fullest,,bleep them then end the relationship without any reason, jst ended one,,,,,,plz how can i stop this thing because ve really hurt so many gals and am scared of all this swearing of a thing, plz advic

you are not doing anything abnormal. 80% of the men out there are doing exactly the same thing so you don't have a problem. gradually, age and maturity will force this act away from you.

kay29000:

I didn't take time to read through all the comments, but i am just surprised that M.I is so big that he could generate this amount of views and replies, whether the album  is good or bad, i guess that is why he could get away with what he dropped.

And please, as someone said above, you can not get a justifiable review from eldee on anything that has M.I on it. I have had the album on my phone for like 2 weeks now, and i have listened to it countless times (because i want to review it for my blog), and i am going to try and sum it up- M.I was out to gain mass appeal on the album, that was why the lyrics were so dumbed down compared to his last album. And contrary to what a lot of people have been saying, the production all through the album is GOOD, it is just his lyrics are a shame- he uses metaphors here and there that were not needed and very unprofessional, "we go hard, self-service", "i am a lesbian, i only like women", "we never going out, no, we not dating", those a the few i can remember, but they are all over the album and can get very annoying for a real rap enthusiast, not a party music fan. I think what made this album bearable for me are the lovely hooks here and there, except for the one with TIMAYA, i think every hook was on point, very melodious hooks.

life is bisexual, anybody can blow - that has to be the weakest, lamest methaphor i have ever heard. abeg, m.i. needs to go back to his book of rhymes and make another album.

Mr_TA:

Our match has been postponed as well. The fixture pileup is going to be ugly for us.

blame the rubbish weather for this but not playing chelsea tomorrow feels like a loss to me. by the time we get them, they will be up and running by then. it's not so bad though, united lead with a game in hand till christmas. i would have taken this in august when united kept dropping silly points here and there.

Pharoh:

England should follow the lead of Nordic and Baltic states that takes a league break during the winter and forget all these postponement of matches. [b]It usually happens every year [/b]so whats the benefit of having fixtures during this time of the year especially when this winter will be the coldest in recent years.

no it doesn't. this is the first white christmas in the last 10 years.

Ibime:

http://bestplayerintheworld.com/2010/11/should-the-ballon-dor-be-based-on-the-calendar-year/

and yet cannavaro won it in 2006 even after having a horrendous career in real madrid from august to december of the same year. ibime, you are a media-tart. you go with whatever you read on the sports pages without actually doing lots of critical thinking yourself. fifa has merged with ballon d'or so i expect more politics and more senseless explanations as to what period the award actually covers.

eldee:

I never said anything about the lyrical skills on this album, I dare you to bring somewhere and I'll refnd you with £6.99.

i am not talking about his lyrical skills. personally, i see no difference with the lyrics on this one and his last album but the beats are hideously weak. this is a rap album not kanye west's love lockdown. the beats must slam. m.i. needs lyor cohen or swizz beats.for orientation. wack talking, wack acting, wack conversation. especially when some goons were looking for m.i. and they took waje instead. honestly, it was so kindergarten-ish. all those stuffs ain't necessary at all. he overplayed it and he focused more on the drama than the music. the album is a 4/10 for me.

eldee:

I won't apologise for your weird taste in music.

weird taste? can you compare his first album to this garbage? please, be objective. like i mentioned earlier, it was his brilliance in the first album coupled with your sugarcoated review that made me jump the gun. if he came out with this album as his debut album, his career would have nosedived. he would probably be selling boli and epa in jos by now.

tosinaded@:

reviews in this case means not just one review!
so y put the blame on eldee?

it was eldee's review that put the final nail on the coffin. i read some reviews elsewhere before reading eldee's and i also know m.i. is capable of making a good album so i blame m.i for putting out dirt and i blame eldee for hyping the dirt.
