Wiz and Fela.
“Who Big Pass?”
Small boys go write/talk like small boys.
Elders go make you think.
Wizkid dey sing for crowd,
stadium full, light dey flash,
money dey talk, awards dey stack,
world dey shout: Starboy!
Fela no need spotlight,
him own be fire for chest,
kalakuta be him stage,
truth be him microphone.
Wizkid dey make dem dance,
make pain small, make joy flow,
Fela dey make dem think,
make fear run, make mind wake.
One dey rule charts,
one rule conscience.
One dey give sweet escape,
one dey give hard reality.
So who big pass?
Na who you dey measure am by.
If na fame and cruise — Wizkid.
If na fight and freedom — Fela.
But hear me well, my people:
River and fire no dey compete.
One cool your body,
one burn your chain.
Different time, different battle,
different kind of greatness.
No be who big pass…
Na who touch your soul pass. 🎶🔥
Na him Fada wan Know jare.
The greatness of Fela is beyond Music and Entertainment.He was a symbol of resistance against oppression and injustice.He survived imprisonment,torture and death in the pursuit and the defence of his principles.He planted the seeds of freedom enjoyed by the generations after him.He is incomparable with any artist living or dead.
Thirty-six years ago, in 1988, the late, Ibadan-born legendary Fuji maestro, Dr. Sikiru Ayinde Barrister released the timeless classic 'Fuji Garbage'. This iconic track took Western Nigeria by storm and gained international recognition.
Nigerians miss a PDP Administration where you could buy rice 100 Naira, beans 20 Naira, Meat 20 Naira, spaghetti 10 Naira and Coca Cola 50 Naira.
PDP remains the hope of the common man.
