GetUmad: I'm hardly a fan of any of the guys on the list so am not saying this from a fan's perspective and yes the lyrics i posted above are not just vulgar but also ridiculously meaningless. What am trying to say is its okay to think someone is overrated but trying to put people down by saying they got nothing to offer is over the top because they got something(entertainment) to offer. Picture this, at your birthday party your DJ plays "Pray for me", "Wish me well" etc. Do u think ur friends will stay back as opposed to these "overrated" artistes songs that will get their groove on. 11 Likes 1 Share |

CHRIS BROWN) Come and put your name on it (put your name on it) Come and put your name on it (your name) Bet you wanna put your name on it (put your name on it) Come and put your name on it It’s not even my birthday But he wanna lick the icing off I know you want it in the worst way (the worst way) Can’t wait to blow my candles out He want that cake, cake, cake… (You wanna put your name on it) Ooh baby I like it, it’s so exciting Don’t try to hide it I’mma make you my Dam Cake, cake, cake… [repeated] (You wanna put your name on it) I know you wanna bite this It’s so enticing Nothing else like this I’mma make you my Dam And it’s not even my birthday (my birthday) But you wanna put your name on it And it’s not even my birthday (my birthday, my birthday) And he trying to put his name on it [Chris Brown] Legggo Girl I wanna Bleep you right now (right now) Been a long time, I’ve been missing your body Let me-let me turn the lights down When I go down, it’s a private party Ooooh, it’s not even her birthday But I wanna lick the icing off Give it to her in the worst way Can’t wait to blow her candles out I want that cake, cake cake….

[Chris Brown] Doggy want the kitty Give me a heart attack and throw it back Now watch me get it And I knew thiss but you the poo Damn, girl you pretty Blowing out your candles, let me make a couple wishes Agreed both of them fall under the category of non-inspiring songs, Which of the two lyrics above one could still manage to make a sense out of in terms having meaning (though sort of vulgar) and not just muddling up words and sentences that are not even remotely related. I mean if you for example, study three lines of each, which one has a complete meaning and which one sounds like that of 2-year old child who just started leaning how to mutter words. OK. For clarity, imma combine the first 5 lines of each song to form a sentence. ***This*** " Way you are shining The way you hold me down Hold my hand, Baby girl hold my hand, When she Eazi fine, Will you be my ride or die, And we no go die, Baby we’ll only fly. " ***or*** " Come and put your name on it (your name) Bet you wanna put your name on it (put your name on it), Come and put your name on it, It’s not even my birthday. But he wanna lick the icing off, I know you want it in the worst way (the worst way). Can’t wait to blow my candles out. He want that cake, cake, cake… " ***This*** Pull up in a Bugatti, Baby girl you can look at it. You liking this Versachi, It is fake but the real one I can buy it. Zaga Dat. Abeg na you are 2daful. Them other girls them are wonderful. Your body round and colourful " ***Or *** " Girl I wanna Bleep you right now (right now). Been a long time, I’ve been missing your body, Let me-let me turn the lights down, When I go down, it’s a private party. Ooooh, it’s not even her birthday, But I wanna lick the icing off, Give it to her in the worst way Can’t wait to blow her candles out. " 5 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Five Most Overrated Nigerian Artistes by GetUmad: 5:03pm On Mar 31, 2017 |
freaklesschild:Pls don't quote me next time if you don't have your fact or I Get you mad. Where did you read in my post claiming wiz kid to be better? Even if I were to tow that lane I would still place even the rubbish Daddy Yo lyrics as less incongruous than those rubbish ones up there. If you don't understand my point there's no need engaging you in any intellectual discourse. By the way, quit your conspiracy theorems. That someone created a thread to air his opinion about talentless Artists and people decided to contribute doesn't mean the thread is all about Wizkid. I was embarrassed when I saw your post claiming the thread was anti-Davido by pro-Wizkid fans. I was more embarrassed seeing you quoting me. Why should you have to attach an unintended conspiracy to such a nice thread as this. OK, have it below. But I won't help you if you can't seem to understand that if you read at least 5 lines in the lyrics below, you could make a sentence with little or no irrelevant words in between. And by the way, it's a dance hall, hence the lyrics format. I got a lotta song, she sing so I make her meter blow uh-ooh-oh Na my song she dey sing so She never ever dull uh-ooh-oh When we dey, nobody dey She dey like to wan dress, you know She dey do the durty dance, you know Valentino she dey wear, you know She call me Funkmaster Flex, you know Everything I want, she gimme She tell me everyday she wanna see me, ooh-yeah Bad-boy Wizzy, StarBoy Wizzy-boy I make her dance, I give her mwaan And make you know my girl nice And I swear, she dey dress, you know Valentino she dey wear, you know Gucci be the dress, you know I no dey let her stress, you know [Efya:] Wizzy boy, make me dance Daddy Yo, make me dance StarBoy, make me dance Daddy Yo, make me dance Wizzy boy, make me dance Daddy Yo, make me dance StarBoy, make me dance Daddy Yo, make me dance [WizKid:] 1-2. I like the way you dance I love your kitty-dance, I love the way you dance am 3-4, knocking on the door FYI: I am not a fan of Wizkid. I don't dig him. The guy is blessed and doing well in his chosen profession just like others I was referring to, no doubt. The fact remains majority of them can't sing a song with meaningful lyrics. It's excusable to me, if you flop in 3 or 4 out of 10 songs but not ALL. 7 Likes |

Guy for an unknown artist like you, you have ZERO credence to judge any of these guys. And by the way, you will never measure up to them. Look up to people so you can bcom great, dont look down on models in your field. It shows you hv got noting but jealousy to offer. Oshi. Modified. You combine guys around the same age as you, with millions of fans GLOBALY able to lock down shows and make ppl happy and you call them overrated?.... Guy you need to do an apology thread.

OP you are just a jealous head. All these artistes have dropped hit singles in the time past and today some of their hit singles still rock. I don't know what's your idea of an overrated artiste.

1bkaye: Brymo is not underrated. He's in a good place. I watch Nollywood movies and his songs are used as soundtracks in a few of them. I think he just wants to keep a low profile. https://www.bellanaija.com/2017/03/there-are-no-musicians-currently-in-2017-making-more-money-off-their-music-than-brymo-brymo-reveals-in-new-interview-with-linda-ikeji-music-watch-on-bn-tv/ |
