THE MEETING

A few weeks to the Nigerian general elections then scheduled for February 14th, three poets, Jumoke Verissimo, Dami Ajayi and Efe Paul Azino, got together to record a poem called The Day is Not for Casualties, urging Nigerians to vote peacefully and prudently. The elections have been postponed but the message is still the same. It is what we make it. May the universe be kind to us.

The music was produced by IBK Spaceship Boi, and Jumoke's poem was recited by Adenike Arigbabu.

The Day is Not for Casualties

Bush House, Independence and English-Speaking. 
A fictional monologue on estrangement and loss.
" ... Before and after independence. … I never went to school past class four but I know how to deal with life, what is important and what is not, what is to be valued and what is not, … how to deal with stress, whatever that this is this stress that everyone says it is the reason why people who go to school end up behaving like people who have not been to school, even worse. Worse. … This having to go to school and become something. How could you be all your life from infancy told you have to become something before you are anything…. It is what destroyed them. It is what destroys people. Such a process will get people losing themselves. Losing their minds. Won’t you? … " http://bit.ly/BushHouseBBC

Bush House. Written by Amma Birago. Performed by Chuma Nwokolo.

Based on a Keynote Lecture to the 2019 Benue Book & Arts Festival, Makurdi.  "The war next time is upon us now. The fire we refused to quench when it was burning our neighbour’s house is now a wildfire, ravaging our land. The ‘I’ word, impunity. Ordinary citizens find the reins of public office and give the middle finger to nation: I can do what I like, when I like, without consequence."

“Plus 234” is one of those tracks that manages to do a lot by addressing challenges facing the nation and Smallzz Tha Razor has never hesitated neither has he backed down from taking topical issues by the horn and telling it as it is.

The rapper packs dense heat in less than 5 minutes – spitting bars about the ills of Xenophobia, the Motherland, Nigeria, the Government, and more, rapping lines such as: “Burna Boy is more of a giant than my Nigeria
-Abi giant wo lo ma laju k’awon eyan e ma jí r’iya?
