Vamos, @RafaelNadal!

As you get ready to graduate from tennis, I’ve got a few things to share before I maybe get emotional.

Let’s start with the obvious: you beat me—a lot. More than I managed to beat you. You challenged me in ways no one else could. On clay, it felt like I was stepping into your backyard, and you made me work harder than I ever thought I could just to hold my ground. You made me reimagine my game—even going so far as to change the size of my racquet head, hoping for any edge.

I’m not a very superstitious person, but you took it to the next level. Your whole process. All those rituals. Assembling your water bottles like toy soldiers in formation, fixing your hair, adjusting your underwear... All of it with the highest intensity. Secretly, I kind of loved the whole thing. Because it was so unique—it was so you.

And you know what, Rafa, you made me enjoy the game even more. 

OK, maybe not at first. After the 2004 Australian Open, I achieved the #1 ranking for the first time. I thought I was on top of the world. And I was—until two months later, when you walked on the court in Miami in your red sleeveless shirt, showing off those biceps, and you beat me convincingly. All that buzz I’d been hearing about you—about this amazing young player from Mallorca, a generational talent, probably going to win a major someday—it wasn’t just hype.

We were both at the start of our journey and it’s one we ended up taking together. Twenty years later, Rafa, I have to say: What an incredible run you’ve had. Including 14 French Opens—historic! You made Spain proud... you made the whole tennis world proud.

I keep thinking about the memories we’ve shared. Promoting the sport together. Playing that match on half-grass, half-clay. Breaking the all-time attendance record by playing in front of more than 50,000 fans in Cape Town, South Africa. Always cracking each other up. Wearing each other out on the court and then, sometimes, almost literally having to hold each other up during trophy ceremonies.

I’m still grateful you invited me to Mallorca to help launch the Rafa Nadal Academy in 2016. Actually, I kind of invited myself. I knew you were too polite to insist on me being there, but I didn’t want to miss it. You have always been a role model for kids around the world, and Mirka and I are so glad that our children have all trained at your academies. They had a blast and learned so much—like thousands of other young players. Although I always worried my kids would come home playing tennis as lefties.

And then there was London—the Laver Cup in 2022. My final match. It meant everything to me that you were there by my side—not as my rival but as my doubles partner. Sharing the court with you that night, and sharing those tears, will forever be one of the most special moments of my career.

Rafa, I know you’re focused on the last stretch of your epic career. We will talk when it’s done. For now, I just want to congratulate your family and team, who all played a massive role in your success. And I want you to know that your old friend is always cheering for you, and will be cheering just as loud for everything you do next.

Rafa that!

Best always, your fan, 

Roger

RE: Burna Boy and Nigerian music lack of substance.

Whenever Burna Boy has to sell a new album to a foreign, Westernised market, he finds a divisive narrative to bestow him exceptionalism in a market that does not know his backstory or lack proper context to process his bullshit.

He cannibalises his people for strangers who are yet to fully commit to him.

Previous campaigns saw him wearing activism as a cloak, and standing in line for "oppressed Africans," to provide himself the marketing angle to push out African Giant and Twice As Tall.

And following the blessings of "Last Last," he's aiming for a trifecta, by going all in with his Messianic messaging.

"Nigerian music has no substance," he says, before positioning himself and his output as the most substantial creative expression from Nigeria.

Nigerian music has substance. We are a party nation, finding expression in rhythm and emotional upliftment via happy music. That's why the drumming continues to be most recurring instrument in all our of pop music.

For themes, Nigerian music embraces escapism and realism. While Burna is right that, "it's a good time," he also fails to understand that the good feeling is a consequence of natural need for emotional upliftment. Has he paid any attention to our lyrics?

We danced to Omah Lay's "Soso," a record about deteriorating mental health, and the cultural toxic reliance on women to perform unpaid emotional labour.

Shallipopi might use Amapiano to get you off your seat, but self-actualization via survival is a central theme in his expression. Odumodublvck oscillates between love, camaraderie and community upliftment, but his tools of trade are often coarse and rudimentary.

And how about our eternal obsession with love? Where Adekunle Gold, Joeboy, Rema, Fireboy DML, Blaqbonez and BNXN have constantly explored all the facets of human connection, and the dance that precedes connectivity and companionship.

While we might dance to Joeboy's "Sip (alcohol), we are witnessing and turning up to a beaten man, reliant on substance abuse to prop up his sanity and cope with the trauma of survival. We just don't see it, because we're too busy dancing.

When people say, "Nigerian music does not have substance," it's not an indictment on the culture and our tendency to oversimplify deep issues, communicating weighty themes via dance music.

It's a window into that person's mind. That window exposes a lack of intellectual leap, or the refusal to see our music beyond the happy feeling it provides.

Nigerian music is a reflection of the Nigerian society. Burna Boy is wrong for debasing his country's art.
