@EbunlomoD Nailed. One of the best singing rappers. And, yes, not a very good rapper at all; poor rhyme schemes, sometimes just lumping words together...

This guy is not a good rapper at all But he’s a great melodist man

What are u starting to dislike more as u get older?

@_dxllz7 Good question

why are all Michael Jackson impersonators impersonating White Michael Jackson and not Black Michael Jackson?

The Invincibles. The Insufferables.

@OnyebuchiEwa Ok but who will fund it ?

Perhaps, a literary conference for African writers is necessary, not this online stuff we do.

Pep Guardiola’s legacy? Look all around from park pitches to Wembley. So many teams and coaches have been influenced by Guardiola. More teams playing out from the back, full-backs inverting into midfield, inviting the press, passing through it, attacking the space. Teams evolving. City won the league in 2021 with false 9s. Then a real 9 arrived, Erling Haaland, as Guardiola tweaked and twisted again. Mixing it up, possession, possession, then going long to Haaland if needed. Mixing it up, possession in the centre, then releasing flying wingers Jeremy Doku and Antoine Semenyo. Guardiola’s legacy? Look at the coaches who learned from him. Enzo Maresca, his likely successor. And Mikel Arteta, Xabi Alonso, Vincent Kompany, Xavi and Luis Enrique. Look at his impact on England. Nico O’Reilly starts at left-back. Phil Foden developed early by Guardiola, not sent out on loan, embedded in the first team early. He improved John Stones, Rico Lewis and Kyle Walker (who is now retired from England). Guardiola gave James Trafford a run in the cups. He gave Cole Palmer a chance before he craved more starts and went to Chelsea. Others have also moved on after a spell under Guardiola’s enlightened tutelage: Morgan Rogers, Liam Delap, James McAtee, Taylor Harwood-Bellis. Guardiola has undeniably enjoyed huge resources to call upon during his decade at City. He was able to draft in Marc Guehi and Semenyo in January. The sport still awaits the verdict of the 115 charges of rule breaches, charges which City deny vigorously. But Guardiola's achievements deserve celebrating: 591 games, 416 wins, 20 trophies. And so to the future. If it is confirmed that Guardiola is leaving after Sunday’s final game of the season, at home to Aston Villa, he will be greatly missed. Maresca is his mooted successor. He knows the club, knows the way Guardiola worked, and can seek to continue that work. It’s a relatively young squad that Guardiola has built. It’s a continuity job. Surely, though, Kompany would have been the man they really wanted. Club legend. But currently embedded at Bayern Munich. Guardiola's legacy is encouraging innovation, total commitment, near obsession with his work and playing attacking football. This City side are entertainers, playing 4-2-4 at times in the FA Cup final on Saturday. Even if the league is beyond him, the title seized by a coach he helped develop, Guardiola leaves as a winner, with two more trophies this season - and countless memories. Good luck to Guardiola in whatever he does next. #MCFC

@AbakpaJob James Gandolfini will always be Tony.

There is something very humorous about calling a character by their first name followed by the franchise they're from

@kay_mahapa Like he's supposed to be playing polo

Zirkzee plays football like he’s from generational wealth and this sport is just a hobby to him.

@yorubachic Repurchased a copy last month!

Who remembers that Yoruba book titled "Eégún Alaare”? 🤔

@tundemoore_xx Loseyi. And Pasuma (dropped 3 in '03: Americana, Extravaganza, and Desperado).

We all know the only artist capable of doing this in Nigeria right?

@Eljay_Afc @futbol_hubX He became the coach at the end of last month

@futbol_hubX From someone who didn't take the previous 36 games seriously.

@RafaelH117 Like Milan's Silvio Berlusconi was in Italy.

Most people don't understand that Florentino Perez isn't the Real Madrid president, but one of the most powerful people in Europe that also is Real Madrid's president.

@ivanvespasian It is even anti-intellectual to be dismissive of populist art.

So the thing is — and I say this with genuine respect and care — you actually need to be capable of discussing populist African cinema sans any reflexive polemical disposition. I get the indignation and the urge to dismiss people who watch such films but nothing gets done —

@Chuckisdope Which part?

A Milly did not age well. At all.

@ilytxlu This could be about either of the two 'rivals'.

i do not like her films. i do not like her melodramatic acting. she is a microcosm of everything wrong with the nigerian industry

@DangerousQuest @therofiatabduls Haha, Marshall

@therofiatabduls Odd that this is in time for mothers day...

If you don't want to make a call but may later need to prove that you, in fact, did make the call but they didn't pick up. Turn airplane mode on and make the call.

@ohmypleaseno1 @Glinner Exactly, cos in some cases, a simple "Yes" might be used to achieve a certain effect or create a mood. So, there really are no rules.

@Glinner A good rule is that there are no rules, whatever works best is typically the best

A good dialogue rule is "never have a character answer a yes or no question with a yes or no".

Father of African cinema 🇸🇳 Ousmane Sembène on why narrative filmmaking is better than any other media for rapidly raising the critical consciousness of the masses Only Chinese drama rn is consistently demonstrating this transformational power of art and the artist - antithesis
