Come on, Get up! All we need is the natural light!
It’s up to you and me to light it up / lift us up!

Men love nothing more than their female counterparts in humanity. Everyone is fully aware of this! We’re overly obsessed with women. Their looks, their smell, the tone of her voice, the feminine movements of her body, and everything that goes with it. Essentially, men are so obsessed with women that many women can enter most nightclubs for free. Women can even get drunk, high, and experience mind-blowing orgasms without sweat.

Here is one situation that requires a clear perspective. One of Hip Hop’s greatest of all time (G.O.A.T.) emcee, Cassidy has accused Tory Lanez (a multi-talented Canadian rapper) not only of adapting his style, flow, and rhyme cadences but also of reworking the styles of several artists without giving them proper recognition. The intellectual world…

There was a time when a few people/fans from Sierra Leone often asked where they could access my music. I had been into music for a while, but they had only recently heard about me. Through my record label and publishing, I released this record exclusively in Sierra Leone on July 7, 2017, to give those people/fans a collection…

There are fifteen tracks. The new Krio records, “Tonight feat. Reebz, & Specikinging,” “IV U feat. Tru Raw & King Boss L.A,” and”Superstar feat. Nes Mburu & Afrikan Diamond.” There are Calypso and Soca crossovers, “Oh La La & Maria feat. Delee,” as well as Zimba, Calypso, and Rap versions of my song “City Boy feat. Winnie Culture.” The Rock and Roll Crossover, “Demodogs feat. T. I. M. & Rene Guillot.”

One thing about being an impartial writer is just that. You are impartial. We are moving into the Fall of 2020. Two of the best mainstream female artists, Beyonce and Cardi B, have injected some love into the global manosphere. Beyonce’s “Already” video is super dope!

I like this song! It’s much better than the dick-shaming ballads that many female artists have roared out of their lungs. Let’s breakdown this cultural instigator. Can we agree that this song has many dimensions? The first is feminism, womanism, or both. Woman power if you can.

When you tell someone that they have been brainwashed, their first reaction is, of course, being somehow offended. Who are you to tell anyone that they have incorrect information? Naturally, those who sustain the ongoing social engineering also do their best to distract everyone from the truth. Many people throw the word brainwashed loosely. We all use it from our perspective based on our…

This decade is also when many Hip Hop O. Gz frantically pulled their hair. We even saw our first openly gay rapper. The homosexual vibe was very influential. Grown men who are not homophobic slipped into skinny jeans and blouses. Some new rappers welcomed cross-dressing as a…

Of course, I have a side of me that still likes to hear gangsta rap. Every rapper who applies that sort of mood plays quite often on my stereo. Honestly, I wasn’t satisfied with the Molly and Syrup rap. Nor the skinny jeans, face tattoos, and man purses of the 2010s. The one aspect that I…

Let’s surmise the evolution of the musicology of Sierra Leone, by outlining the preeminent cradle of the people. What are the various cultural influences in the melting pot of this West African nation? When it comes to the land, we know that there is always a mountainous peninsula. There is also a vast savannah landscape in the framework. The name Sierra Leone means “Lion Mountain” in Portuguese. Some veterans have said that the old people referred to…

King Boss LAJ is the most misunderstood genius from Sierra Leone. Make no mistake. He is a highly respected mogul on the music scene. Since the modest beginnings of Hip Hop in the early 1990s, the question was not just whether the country could produce a world-class emcee. It was also about whether we could deliver a list of a few more.

When it comes to the “King of Freetown,” the majority of his fans recognize him as someone more than a musician. For many Salone Hiphoppas, Kao Denero is the redeemer who unlocked the Sierra Leone Hip Hop community from stagnation. Thousands of Sierra Leoneans have also named Kao Denero as the best rapper of all time. Although…

Years ago, I covered Sierra Leone in a two-part blog about music and dance cultures in Africa. If you would like to read that article, click HERE. The universe has bestowed the fascinating country of Sierra Leone with hundreds, if not thousands of talented people. One of the areas of such a celebrity is in the field of music.

To my knowledge, besides Neneh Cherry, no other musician has had a more remarkable career in the music history of Sierra Leone. I know this latest generation of Afrobeat-infused Hip Hop fans will be shocked to hear this. They often confuse the difference between home-based vernacular rappers with traditional Hip Hop emcees from…
