Who's Excited? We Get To Go Home!!!


PARADISAY BY SHOGGY TOSH
Remember that popular song all obituaries contain? Like an obituary is not complete until you have the song played before the "With gratitude to God for a life well spent" message is read? Do y'all remember that "This world is not my home" song? 
Well, let's all give a big thank you to Shoggy Tosh for taking that song and transforming it. Like, you cannot listen to the former and not think of death or burials or stuff like that, but you can listen to this one, and start dancing. Or if you're like me, you nod your head.  
OK I'm sorry for raising the hopes of those who might actually like that song, and are maybe glad someone did a hip-hop version of it. It's actually not the same song. The message is still the same though. This world is not our home. 
Shoggy Olushoga Olugbenga Tosh is a Nigerian-British rapper who mixes Yoruba sounds, as well as Yoruba lyrics, to pass the gospel message to the whole world.
 Look at the world we live in right now. There's this press for global citizenship and worldwide unity. We see this all the time at conventions like UNGA, the push for a single currency, and this climate change hoax that's just a plot to change world governance. With all these who can doubt the fact that the end is near? Believers should be excited. WE GET TO GO
HOME!!!

Song Review: Armies By KB

So a couple of days ago, we were blessed with the release of this single by Christian Hip-hop sensation Kevin Burgess. Personally, I get excited anytime I hear KB has released a new song because he never disappoints. I believe Armies by KB is a song for today. A favourite Bible passage for a lot of people would be the 91st Psalm, which has to do with God's promises of protection concerning the people He loves. Armies is a song that reminds us of the fact that everywhere we go, we have an army of angels surrounding us.               LYRIC BY LYRIC REVIEW  Danger, giants Battle is my story But alone, I won't know That's my glory Shadows you cannot hide me, uh My King will fight The God of angel armies Is always by my side  So this is reminiscent isn't it? Remember that song by Chris Tomlin? Whom Shall I Fear? I've always been a hip-hop person, so I'll always prefer KB's version. We live in a world where we constantly wrestle against S

I Can't Breathe (And I should probably apologize to Lecrae)

  Look, I know I'm not in the best position to speak about everything happening in America, and for some good reason (in my opinion). First of all, I'm Nigerian. From Africa. And though I've seen episodes of police brutality, I haven't experienced racism (well, there was this time, on Facebook...). And then, I only hear stuff on news, it's kinda different when you're there to experience it first hand. Like it's your daily experience.    Well, in 2016, Trip Lee released his album The Waiting Room (one of his best in my opinion), and there's this song there that gave me a little taste of the typical Black American experience. I'm talking about Lord Have Mercy by Trip Lee.    In the second verse, Trip said; "He made me a black man, with all black clothes  Black coffee, blacking out on all my flows But why is black a problem here for all my bros?  And why they tryna put a tag on all our toes?  Black fists on the pick sticking out my 'fro He made
