Make you no deny me my Visa

She don’t wanna stay, haffi leave her
No be everybody be believer
Hennessy, Casamigos, it’s all in the car

Fine boy, no pimple, no tats
I got a V12 under the bonnet, she got plaits
I’m Mario, my princess got a peach
In my Rolls-Royce seats, so repeat
Genevilla must a come with a beach
One for the street
Four, five, this toast doesn’t come with a speech, you know?
[Chorus: Burna Boy]
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
[Refrain: Burna Boy]
Me, I just wan make my people dey visa, visa

Before you start to criticize, consider, oh, consider, oh
[Bridge: Burna Boy]
If I ever said I loved you

If you call on me then I’ll slide
You already know we outside
And I know you go ride
Anytime I call on you

[Chorus: Burna Boy]
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on (Me, I just want see my people dem—)
[Outro: Burna Boy]
Getting bigger, oh, I swear down

They do not intend to permanently leave town
Me, I be leader, oh
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me
Ah, and I couldn’t see, I was cheating on, cheating on me

EditorThe sleepy town of Uwala Abaka, Ukehe, in Nsukka, Igboetiti Local Government Area of Enugu State, was enveloped by sadness and grief, as the remains of one of their illustrious sons, actor John Odonwodo, popularly known as Junior Pope was laid to rest.
The burial rites commenced at 10 am with a commendation mass at St. Peter’s Catholic Parish, Ukehe, and lying-in-state at his father’s compound, where family members, well-wishers, colleagues and friends had the final glimpse of the late actor before the body was moved to a private venue for internment at about 1.30 pm.
The atmosphere at the burial ceremony was somber as colleagues and fans gathered to pay their final respects to the late actor.
The late actor’s wife, Jennifer Awele couldn’t back tears as she was sighted weeping profusely at the commencement of the final funeral procession.

Her first son, who was trying to console his mother by wiping the tears off her face, equally broke down in tears. Unfortunately, some of the A-list actors and actresses, including the leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, were visibly missing at the burial ceremony.
The 43-year-old actor died alongside four other people on April 10, after their boat capsized in the Anam River, in Anambra State, while returning from a movie shoot.
Speaking at the burial ceremony, veteran actress Rita Edochie said that she was heartbroken when she heard the sad news of Junior Pope’s death.

May 17, 2024By
EditorStreet-pop artiste, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has released a new song following his recent arrest by the Lagos State Police Command for failing to settle a debt related to the purchase of a G-Wagon.
It was gathered that Portable had paid only N13 million after purchasing the vehicle, which was worth N27 million. He was said to have refused to pay the N14 million balance.
Recall that the Lagos State police command released the singer on bail, on Thursday, after spending a night in custody.
Portable, in an Instagram post on Thursday, released a snippet of a new song, Spider Man.

The song, produced by 2tuponthebeat, hints at the singer’s agility and ability to “fly” over obstacles, referencing how he evaded arrest by jumping over a gate.
Recall that Portable released the track ‘I’m Not A Prisoner’ following his arrest in 2023 after failing to honour several police invitations.
Nigerians react
Portable just dropped a new song. He used the voice over from his arrest video as the intro. I said it yesterday, this guy doesn’t disappoint. Spiderman.

Portable don drop new song called Spiderman. He even used the voice over from his arrest video as the intro. You can’t shame the shameless.

If all artists turned their experiences into songs like Portable does, they won’t struggle with their catalogue.
— Oluwatomisin 🦋 (@tomifab_)
It’s a bad thing to owe, evade arrest and to be an “Onigbese”.But Portable knows how to flip the narrative in his favour.
He understands that attention is the currency of marketing.#portable#spiderman
— Kehinde Ajose (@iamkenniajose)
In this era, it’s never about how good or talented you are anymore; it’s more about how long you can hold people’s attention. Interestingly, Portable has been able to do that consistently since he got his break in 2021 and has chosen not to leave the limelight anytime soon.
