Best rap song in Naija ever? naaa,don't think so

Ibile,i be warrior,pe ni Elkanemi (El Kanemi Warrior) grin

No doubt Uzi killed the track, the boy is so dope,i can still remember his freestyle on coolfm last year on friday club mix with DjXclusive,Dotun and N6, the other rappers in the house just keep quiet, no one was able to match him that night, he even went in the 2nd time, if you hear punchlines,u go fear am

I haven't listened to the song. But i give it a distinction. Let me follow the trend.

This is just my personal opinion. Vector's King Kong remix featuring Phyno, Reminisce, Classiq and Uzi has to be the d-opest rap song in Naija (ever?)

The visuals were crayyy! Butterfield beyond the video, the contribution of every artiste on that track was just out of this world....they all came correct. I haven't seen artistes go as hard as those guys did on a collaboration. Like they all wanted to prove something, and boyyy did they prove it! (maybe they were tryna outdo Sarkodie's remix? grin).

I had some favourites, so i'll break them down from my best down to the least IMO....they all did good, but some were amazing.

1) Uzikwendu(Uzi): the lil bro of Killz did not disappoint his big bro. This dude was just FIRE on the track. Like, where the hell has he been? We've got Twista here and we've been rockin' to a bunch of 2Chainz niggas? I loved EVERYTHING about this dude's lines. The rhthm, the speed, everything was just....DAMN! I have to see him again.

2) Classiq: first off, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Vector for finally getting a REAL A-boky on a track, Ann boy did this dude represent! On a track with fairly established guys, these new bloods definitely took the spotlight. Classiq was just waoh! Rapping in Hausa, he delivered the language of the North so beautifully, one is tempted to sign up for an Hausa class. Thank you Nasarawa for giving us Classiq

3) Phyno: As usual, Mr. Obago delivered his punchlines with enough infusion of Igbo so you make no mistakes where he's repping, but at this point, we should all know how Phyno does it....I particularly liked his line "Real recognises real, ma nigga so why don't you look familiar?".

4) Vector: As much as Vector owned the original of this song, he had to tone it down for the other guys, but he still brought his heat. Would've preferred if he opened the music, but he was still pretty awesome on it, I liked his Johnny line

5) Reminisce: Baba Hafusa was my least interesting act on this beat. I just feel like Olamide would've murdered this song more than he did. He was just okay, he went as hard as he has in recent times, but still, he fell short just a little compared to the other guys.

Totally, Uzi and Classiq were the stars of this song and MattMax definitely did some magic with the visuals....even though there is a resemblance to Jay-Z's "On to the next one". Certain scenes stood out for me. The illuminati-ish scene with Uzi as well as the Horse rider scene with Classiq.

Here is the video, what do you think of the song?

Filled with Illuminati-wannabe imagery.

Borrowed heavily from Jay Z's video (can't recall the title).

A for effort. It's not easy to put yourself on the line and showcase your creativity.

But by far, my best Nigerian rap remixes are SHOKI! & Show Me Yuh Rozay
Davido dey rap ni?

What the fecky fvck is this? grin

In 2015, these folks don't even know how to put words together for form a 16 apart from singing in tongues. All Nigerian rappers suffer from nursery rhymes syndrome.

Just create a next genre for this garbage and stop giving rap music a bad image.

Trash - but video is decent though.

ya, Africa remix was hood, but it pales in comparison with this jam. It was more laid back, no urgency about it, not enough heat, but nice rhymes.

Another jam I love is Local Rappers with Reminisce, Olamide and Phyno....they went hard on there as well....but King Kong was just madt

Dudess, I don't know if your post was a paid post, but how can you say this track is better than 'Local Rappers.' There was no fusion between one rapper and the other on the track...d dopest verses were from Uzi, Phyno, and Reminisce...in descending order. They made the track...but Local Rappers is a better rap song than this. And you went too far calling this the dopest rap song in Nigerian rap music history. Well, you are a 'girl' so I understand.

dude, I've heard Overkillin' It remix. I even prefer it to the original, but nothing beats originality. There's an African vibe to this, they didn't just rap, they rapped in their indigenous languages and people who didn't understand still felt the flow.
