“Want It All” featuring Polo G Depicts Burna Boy’s Versatility [Song Review]

Published

on

Want It All” is such a record that depicts Burna Boy‘s versatility which preserves his high artistic taste, as he leaves sophisticated sonic experiences in a perfect shape.

He becomes more personal and reflects on his past experiences including failed attempts to fly, as no one beliefs he could amount to being a replica of the African Giant nor make victorious headway which has earned him a Grammy plaque in the end.

Burna Boy reflects on the chorus about the fact that he had many doubters at the start of his journey, his pain and being tucked in the struggles of life. Nevertheless, every worker has a payday and he has been getting the glories he deserves as he made known several collections of what he possesses including his luxurious Jewells, Louis Vuitton collections, showing off braggadocio about living the good life in the end and wanting it all.

Burna Boy is deserving of what he has become over the years of putting in the work, and every praise that comes after the kind of life he lives is what he has earned. He takes the listener’s mind to the big feat he acquired back in his hometown in Port-Harcourt, how he was honored by the Governor specially and became an image of celebration even as he should be a source to inspire other youthful folks to do incredibly better

Burna deserves everything and Polo G‘s effort alongside was worthy, indeed. G has hustled to make his way through, even after his incarceration in 2018 before his prominence peaked, doubling with his artistry which begun to rake into top music charts consecutively. ‘Want It All’ is the kind of record that sets creators apart and only keeps them clinging to all they truly deserve.

Album Review: Blaqbonez Jettison Hardcore Rap On ‘Emeka Must Shine’

Published

on

Blaqbonez tries new sound and rhythms on ‘Emeka Must Shine’ , jettison hardcore rap

The album started with the high-energy, mid-tempo “Road Runners”, featuring Ghanaian sensation Black Sheriff supported by vibrant lead guitars and subtle chords, is a heartfelt way in which the singer talks about his journey from a struggling rapper to one of the best in the job.

The second track 6 business days is a sexual jokes and business minded track. Blaqbonez shows he is a homebred talent whose music is the very heartbeat of the streets, enhances the song’s lyrical narrative. Paying tribute to the likes of Jowi Zaza, Blaqbonez shows he loves sex but doesn’t joke with money.

On KILO, Blaqbonez shows delightful plucking of lead guitars, gentle percussion, and heavy kicks. This is a track for serenading a lover and the joy of beautiful sexual intimacy. Like Ice Spice is a song where the singer talk about ever form of sexual counters, this is where he hails his spending money and his ability to bag hot girls as a preacher of sex without love. As a rapper, Blaqbonez visualize orgasms, strokes and everything sexual encounter on this song.

Appealing to the South East part of the country, Blaqbonez employ the fastest upcoming rapper from South East, Jeriq, here to talk about money and everything wealth. Nyem Ego as the title suggests show everything the rapper is trying to talk about.

Naija Shawty featuring Victony is a track that is particularly marked by solos, striking chords. Their lyrics delve into their resilience and street-smartness in finding a balance between work and love, especially from their Nigerian lovers. Blaqbonez maintains here that his love for Nigerian girls will always be top despite that he’s seen girls all over the world.

Dollarz by Odumodublvck is also a new sound, similar to Ice Spice, the heavy tone from Odumodublvck makes this song a love to fans ears. With the voice of a choir underneath, this song will strike a chord in your heart. The Bezos is where Blaqbonez talks about his future, a very good plan of how he plans to go out and top.

“Today no fit be tomorrow Give me one year I go feel like Bezos, my bank account no fit reach zero”.

Album Review: Bnxn Suffers From Monotony On Debut Album ‘Sincerely, Benson’

Published

Bnxn Sincerely Benson album review

Here’s the review of ‘Sincerely, Benson’, the debut album by award-winning Nigerian singer Bnxn.

On 5 Oct. 2023, Bnxn—or Buju as he was formerly known—released his debut studio album, titled ‘Sincerely, Benson’ like the closing salutation in a formal letter.

A good lyricist, who admittedly took some lessons from Grammy-winning Burna Boy while signed to the latter’s Spaceship Records for two years, Bnxn was understandably economical with both features and duration of this album.

Bnxn Sincerely Benson album review

(There are a lot of albums that might have been successful if not for their unnecessary collaborations. Perhaps, Bnxn learnt from the mistakes of others.)

With a handful of collaborators (2Baba, Headie One, Taves, Kizz Daniel & Seyi Vibez, Popcaan) present, one may not be mistaken to say ‘Sincerely, Benson’ is a collaborative effort planned by a number of great minds in the background.

On ‘Regret’ featurng 2Baba, Bnxn holds the reigns over the formerly called 2Face, a respected figure from the 2000s who made a loud impact in Afrobeats-to-the-world Movement.

As a matter of fact, Bnxn gives no chance to being overshadowed by his guests, holding the reigns in each and every collaboration!

However, there is a lapse.

Bnxn suffers a huge blow from monotony. The sound has not elevated from what was heard in his previous EPs, and has started to become boring.

He is a talented artist without a doubt, but a great voice and intelligent lyrics are not enough, especially if the sound is repetitive. Versatility in style or sound matters as much as lyrics and voice do.

Nevertheless, or on the good side of it, if ‘Sincerely, Benson’ has achieved something, it is the re-confirmation that Bnxn is not to be played with as far as pen game is concerned—one of the best of his generation in that lane.

‘Pidgin & English’ is this writer’s favorite track off the album. What is yours?
