Blaqbonez claps back at Khaligraph Jones in new diss track ‘Green Blaq Green’ (Video)

If you are an avid internet user like myself then I am sure you are aware that local rapper Brian Ouko Omollo, better known as Khaligraph Jones, has been beefing with Nigeria’s Emeka Akumefule, alias Blaqbonez.

It all started when the Micasa Sucasa hitmaker was crowned Africa’s Best Hip hop act at Soundcity MVP awards. He beat the likes of Falz, Kwesta, Sarkodie, Medikal, Reminisce, Ricky Rick, Zakwe and, wait for it, Blaqbonez.

A day after the awards’ ceremony, this lad who if you ask me stood the least chance to bag the coveted award, took to social media to blast Soundcity and Khaligraph.

Blaqbonez explained that he should have been awarded instead because apparently he’s the best rapper in Africa. He also vowed to release a diss to Papa Jones the following day.

His sentiments provoked Khaligraph Jones so much so that the Kayole-bred rapper and released a diss track dubbed Best Rapper In Nigeria.

In the song, Papa Jones makes fun of Blaqbonez while lambasting him for rapping to Afrobeat and claiming that it is Hip Hop.

Khaligraph told the Nigerian artiste that he is the best rapper in Africa while describing himself as the G.O.A.T which stands for Greatest Of All Time.

To add insult to the wound, Khaligraph bragged how he beat Blaqbonez in front of his people, adding that he should wait for the next season if he is dissatisfied.

Hours later, Blaqbonez fired back at Khaligraph with Green Blaq Green which is a deviation from his usual Afrobeat style. Maybe, just maybe, he listened to Khaligraph afterall.

In the track, he claims that Khaligraph looks like he’s 52 based on his face and tells him to stop clout-chasing because he is never going to blow up in Nigeria. Therefore he should stop trying.

Blaqbonez also stated that he’s not afraid of Khaligraph, adding that if at all there’s any Kenyan that he holds in high esteem then it’s Eliud Kipchoge.

While I must admit that both diss tracks are really dope because of the tight punchlines and cheeky rhymes, both you and I know that Khaligraph carried the day.

Put some respect on Khaligraph’s name!

Kenyan rapper Brian Ouko Omollo, better known as Khaligraph Jones, has managed to achieve feats that most of his counterparts can only dream of. I therefore feel that it’s about time he gets the respect that he deserves.

A few days ago, the Songea hitmaker was crowned Africa’s Best Hip hop act at Soundcity MVP awards beating music heavyweights such as Falz, Kwesta, Sarkodie, Medikal, Reminisce, Ricky Rick and Zakwe.

While a number of Kenyans, especially his die hard fans like yours truly, celebrated this milestone, which is no mean feat, some people weren’t too pleased since they are not used to Kenyan artists bagging such prestigious award.

Case in point is a 23-year-old rapper known as Blaqbonez who was also nominated alongside Khaligraph. I am not so sure why he thought he would win but that’s a story for another day.

A day after the ceremony, this chap who if you ask me stood the least chance to bag the prestigious award home, took to social media to blast Soundcity and Khaligraph.

Blaqbonez explained that he should have been awarded instead because apparently he’s the best rapper in Africa. He also vowed to release a diss to Papa Jones the following day.

However, Khaligraph outsmarted him and dropped his diss track dubbed Best Rapper In Nigeria so much so that no one even cares about Blaqbonez’ diss which was released a day later.

While I’m happy about the publicity that Khaligraph is getting over the so-called ‘beef’, I’m also perplexed because a 23-year-old who’s not even known in his home country thought he stood a chance against Papa Jones. How?

If you have been a fan of Khaligraph for as long as I have been then I’m sure you know how much work he has put to get where he is at the moment and that means that he deserves every right to enjoy the fruits of his labour.

Blaqbonez has also made some great strides in his career but he should know that for a Kenyan to bag such an award then he must have put in a lot of work because let’s be honest, very people give a hoot about music from our country.

The Nigerian music industry is far much ahead of ours the same way Kenya leads the pack in churning out athletes in the continent.

This means it is probably ten times harder for a Kenyan musician to get noticed than it is for a Nigerian. As such, we need to put some respect on Khaligraph’s name because it didn’t come easy.

Falz has linked up with Ajebutter22 and Boj on ‘Ronaldo’ and we love it (Video)

Nigerian rapper Folarin Falana, better known as Falz, has dropped a new jam with Ajebutter22 & Boj and it’s getting a lot of love.

The song titled Ronaldo, which is off the Extended Play (EP) Make E Cause No Fight 2 by the trio, is such a beautiful composition and you just want to keep listening to it.

I don’t know about you but one of the reasons why I really love Nigerian songs is because of the pidgin. I don’t know why but it really spices up a song. For instance, try to imagine your favourite Nigerian song without pidgin in it.

This song is very catchy. However, if you asked me to explain what it’s all about, I wouldn’t even know where to start because I don’t know. I also feel that this song doe not make any sense but that’s a story for another day.

The beat is also dope and you know this from the moment you hit the play button. To add to that, it blends really well with the artists’ vocals.

The video concept is on point. Although it is too simple, I feel it works since the videographer brought out the best of the different shoot locations. Props to him.

Patoranking has teamed up with Falz on a new jam dubbed ‘Girls’ and it’s a banger (Video)

Award-winning Nigerian singer Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie, better known as Patoranking, has featured on Falz’ latest song and it’s a big tune.

The song titled Girls celebrates ladies who bring life to parties adding that a bash is not worth attending if they aren’t present.

In the song, Falz and Patoranking say that although drinks are important in a party, enough ladies have to be around for it to be worthwhile saying “the party no go nice if girls no dey, if girls no dey.”

I really love this jam. Although it seems very effortless, you have to agree with me that it is very catchy. I am sure you will hit the replay button a couple of times when you listen to it for the very first time.

Patoranking totally aced the hook while Falz did justice to the hook. Apart from the sheer creativity from both artists, I really loved the pidgin. It spices up their lyrics, obviously is this song was in normal English, it could be boring.

The beat on this song is also impressive. Although I’m not sure if you can dance to it, it really gives you a good feeling and that is what music is all about, isn’t it? I honestly can’t wait for the video to drop.
