Beyonce In Nigeria?

“I just wanna rip this dress, so that you can see tha Breasts…” she shrieks in her unsexy voice. Calm down. I know she said rest. My brain just prefers to hear breasts. At least if you’re gonna mind-fuck me, do it properly.

In case you’re lost, that line was taken from Tiwa Savages’ new single, ‘Without my heart’.

Relax. A lotta sensitive people with no sense, tried shoving their opinions down my throat after that Wande Coal post yesterday. Opinions about and not limited to Wande, Wizkid and of course Tiwa Savage.

Before I go on, please note clearly, I’m not an hater. I just belong to the school of thought that thinks if you’re gonna serve me Pina Colada, make sure it’s Pina Colada and not Palm wine.

Without My Heart – Tiwa Savage ft. Don Jazzy. <— Look at that. You’ll definitely wanna download and listen eh? Seen the single artwork/photo eh? Before you press play, what comes to your mind though? Mine is a dick-whipped black girl who thinks she’s Beyonce and wants her man to stay.

Ok, press play. What comes to your mind? Brick and Lace’s Love is wicked. What else? Rihanna’s Pon de replay. What else? Beyonce’s put a ring on it. What else? A little Salewa Abeni.

I press re-play. A Beyonce choreography plays in my head starring Tiwa Savage playing a dick-whipped western over-demanding slut, albeit not too well and Don Jazzy playing Jigga.

I press replay again. I pay attention to the lyrics. No surprise there. Her voice? I’ve heard better Cele church choristers. Is it a jam though? Not my kinda jam, but it’s quite playable. Will get many club plays, I think. But really, I don’t know how I would dance to it without looking like I’m auditioning for ‘Mortina’ Dance All.

Don Jazzy on the other hand, added value to this track. Seriously, the Naija flavored lyrics worked for him and his refrain will garner more interest for the single. I’ve always liked his playful way of singing though he’s not that much of a good vocalist. Days ago when Tiwa announced via Twitter that she’ll be dropping something hot featuring a big act, I thought it would be 9ice. I’ve listened, it isn’t nice. Watery Pun intended.

I don’t know what Tiwa Savage must have been thinking. Doesn’t she know Beyonce’s music hardly sells in Nigeria? I’m talking Compact Disc, not shows Dumbos! Most of her fans down here, have never ever bought her songs! Some of those that have, bought from Chukwudi down the road. If you’re gonna play a particular stereotype, at least do it well oh! How Tiwa intends making her brand commercially viable is not my headache, but this single is dangerously close to being labelled a confused track done by a copy-cat. I sure didn’t get mind-fucked nor teased while listening to this. Did you? If some chick sings this to me, I would smile, fuck her and still leave without her heart. Even if I’m a Ritual killer, I won’t leave with her heart. Ok I kid. Buh I sure as hell won’t take you seriously yo! This track just proves Okafor’s law is real mehnn.

When she first came on the scene, a lotta thirsty Dudes went gaga. To some dudes, Tiwa Savage’s supposed beauty covers up for her lack of talent. Yeah, I saw the ‘Love me x 3′ video and it was kool. She managed not to look like burnt sausage spotting a bum-short. Of course, I do not agree she’s that beautiful. Maybe she’s not my type, cuz really, banging a lepa on tha floor isn’t sexy. What is good for the Goose is good for the Gander if the Gander is Bi-sexual. So the rumour she’s hot isn’t a general notion please.

I agree she plays her slutty roles well though, so a video to this song is highly anticipated by The Ass-kissers and International Wankers Association of Nigeria (T.A.I.W.A.N). Compared to many upcoming female singers, Tiwa ranks higher than a select few. At least she tries not to just look like a Fulani Ashewo that knows how to sing in Yankee English.

Final Verdict: This track doesn’t show Tiwa’s supposed talent. However, It’s good entertainment. The refrains will be remembered. Nothing more. If this single was put up for sale, I might buy it just because Don Jazzy was on it (and that’s if the internet suddenly stops existing). Be careful Tiwa, we don’t want your career crashing down. Lepa on de floor.. Eh! Eh!

    I'm not a fan of this song but you took it too far. May nobody speak about your sister or child like this.

  2. The truth says:

    It would make some sense to write a review about the song, good or bad. However to insult the artist in this manner is rather crass. Tiwa Savage is talented and undeniably beautiful. Her art might not be to your taste, but this right here is low and depicts the quintessential hater. By the way it's 'a hater' not 'an hater'.

  3. Claire Negbenebor says:

    This post is invalid simply because you are a hater. Why you decided to attack the singer's person is completely beyond me. If your shallow brain can't process her music, why blame her? The song is different. Might not be great, but definitely isn't horrible. And you need to speak for yourself sometimes, that only goes to show the sort of orientation you have. If "your people" don't buy Beyonce music, kindly realize that that's just "your people". Plus, i wonder why i just wasted so much time on a reply to someone who typed "an hater". Deal with the apparent h factor, THEN come back and speak to us.

    U should have stuck to the music part not the “how she looks” part!
    Its not ur kind of music, well she has her kind of fans.
    U just need to grow the hell up and realise that @d end of d day these people are trying to do their job and they have feelings also.
