Just as the songs of the Afrobeat King remains evergreen in our hearts. So also will those of Falz in several years to come. Talk speaks about several ills in the society, ranging from poor leadership in the country to that in church. Infact, a phrase in the song reads thus:


Three private jets you say you buy am for church But your congregation no dey fly am of course.
Poor man thief for market you set fire for hin body.
Big man thief money we dey hail am like dummy…
we dey suffer we dey smile we dey fear to talk


Recall that the sensational music artiste had also released a similar song last year. ‘This is Nigeria’ was released on Independence Day sharing similarities with Danny Glover’s ‘This is America’. It employed the American’s style in telling the Nigerian story. It talks about corruption, insecurity, kidnapping and the vices suffered in the society.
Let’s keep our hearts to what Falz expresses in this new song and enjoy it.
