Making A Real Difference.
Great Nation – Timi Dakolo (Song Of The Day)
Even at the peak of my patriotic mood, it is easy to get tired of coming up with more positive vibes for Nigeria. Great Nation as we are, we sometimes need a Timi Dakolo to remind us of our greatness and pump us with more patriotism.
Brother – MI Abaga, Nosa, Milli (Song Of The Day)
There is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. That is the easiest way to describe the brotherhood we witnessed with Choc Boys. Seeing it all falter has left a big gap in the Nigerian music scene.
Aimasiko – Simi (Song Of The Day)
Don’t give up, you never can tell how close you are to your Victory. Aimasiko lo damu eda, ori mi lowo Oluwa lowa.
Hallelujah Eh – Nathaniel Bassey (Song Of The Day)
He has made a way Where there was no way Hallelujah Eh! It’s the sound of breakthrough Hallelujah Eh! Hallelujah O Oh! Let the sound of rejoicing fill this house
Joromi – Simi (Song Of The Day)
Simi’s Joromi tells the story of the delectable Sister Simi deciding enough is enough with Uncle Joromi forming “Tough Guy” while she is all “Good Girl-ish” and “They” never happening because he never gets to ask her out. She is taking matters into her own hands and is going to “shoot her shot.”
Perfect Woman – Faze (Song Of The Day)
This song teaches all men to understand the fact that the domineering garment isn’t the right attire to put on while in a relationship and wishing to get a perfect woman would only amount to living in a fool’s paradise as no one is born perfect.
Sola Allyson featuring Adekunle Gold – Alujanjankijan (Song OF The Day)
Alujanjankijan is the kind of music you would expect from a maestro, someone who understands the beauty and power of music at the same time and also does a great job of balancing both.
Nneka – Heartbeat (Song Of The Day)
I can’t find a better way to describe my pain and disappointment with Our beloved country, I hope Nneka’s Heartbeat does a good job of that.
Passenger – Simple Song (Song Of The Day)
I don’t know if the words creepy and lovely have ever been combined to describe anything, but it is eerily safe to say that Passenger’s Simple Song is creepily-lovely.
Asa – New Year (Song Of The Day)
An astounding feature of this song is the fact that it deviates from the typical Nigerian New Year song that is only about prayers to God for a prosperous New Year. This song reminds you of your own role in ensuring you have a successful year.
Aramide – Odun Tuntun (Song Of The Day)
Odun Tuntun serves as a rendition of heartfelt prayer to God for a beautiful, bountiful, boundless and blessed New Year.
The Remedies (Song Of The Day)
The history of modern pop music in Nigeria can easily be said to have started around the time The Remedies came on the scene.
Ed Sheeran – The A Team (Song Of The Day)
The A Team is easily one of the most calming and relaxing music produced in the last decade. That is until your hear the words.
Toby Grey – Love Dosage (Song Of The Day)
It’s not Valentine season, but there is no time limit to sharing love. Hence Love Dosage. Toby Grey does a great job on this track, with soulful vocals that encourages sharing love rather than hate, shade, beef, or diss. Lets […]
General Pype – Victorious Man (Song Of The Day)
I find it ludicrous that General Pype’s Victorious Man video has less than fifty thousand views on YouTube. It breaks a little part of my heart that General Pype is still being slept on by Nigeria. From dropping the chorus […]
Song Of The Day: Timaya Featuring Flavour – Money
It’s Monday morning, you wish Sunday was extended, your body just isn’t switching back to work, you need an extra push to get going, Timaya’s Money should be just what you need.
Song Of The Day: Labrinth Featuring Emeli Sandé – Beneath Your Beautiful
“Beneath Your Beautiful” talks about an unashamed desire, unreserved quest, and unrestrained plea for love. It tells first a male, then a female wooing a reserved and hesitant love interest. Sometimes, we see people as unapproachable and assume them to […]
Song Of The Day: Timi Dakolo – Wish Me Well
If there is a category of hustlers that can be referred to as classy, then Timi Dakolo’s “Wish Me Well” should serve as one of their anthems.
Song Of The Day: Macklemore Featuring Kesha – Good Old Days
Want to know a great song for reminiscing? Good Old Days is the perfect song for that. Macklemore and Kesha did a good job of helping you relax, sit down, and look back on the days of yore. Listening to […]
Song Of The Day: Reminisce – Ponmile
I can’t remember the first time I heard Ponmile by Reminisce, but I do remember that I wondered why Reminisce had to go full on R n B on us. A part of me loved the song while a second […]Share with friends:

2 weeks ago by mardlifetv Not My Business - Niyi Osundare (A Poem) They picked Akanni up one morning Beat him soft like clay And stuffed him down the belly Of a waiting jeep. What business of mine is it So long they don’t take the yam From my savouring mouth? They came one night Booted the whole house awake And dragged Danladi out, Then off to a lengthy absence. What business of mine is it So long they don’t take the yam From my savouring mouth? Chinwe went to work one day Only to find her job was gone: No query, no warning, no
2 weeks ago by mardlifetv PSA: Nigerian Trekkers Union Fellow countrymen, we at the National Trekkers Union have decided to bring some things to public knowledge, so you all can be aware of why we take our next line of action. Immediately after the last General Election, lots of our trekkers started trekking in different directions as a way of celebrating the victory of General Muhammad Buhari. Interestingly, no trekkers were invited to the Inauguration of the President, neither were we given any appointive position in the administration. It's three years into the "new" administration and still, a lot is yet to change. The changes
2 weeks ago by mardlifetv Here is a cover letter written by Robert Pirosh, with the intention of becoming a screenwriter. He sent a copy of this to all directors, producers and studio executives he could think of in Hollywood in 1934. He would go on to win an academy award in 1949. Dear Sir: I like words. I like fat buttery words, such as ooze, turpitude, glutinous, toady. I like solemn, angular, creaky words, such as straitlaced, cantankerous, pecunious, valedictory. I like spurious, black-is-white words, such as mortician, liquidate, tonsorial, demi-monde. I like suave “V” words, such as Svengali, svelte, bravura, verve. I like

6 days ago by mardlifetv There is a rising sentiment among Nigerians that the government should sell the country, share the proceeds, so we can all move on with our lives. Despite how funny that sounds, a ridiculous amount of people are actually buying more into the idea daily. When successive governments have failed in educating its populace, the laughable suddenly seems feasible. As our Yoruba kindred will say, the child that is not well taught will eventually sell off everything in the house. Even if we were to find a willing buyer, can we trust any government to sell Nigeria and fairly share the
2 weeks ago by mardlifetv After switching primary schools, I didn't have close friends like Junior and MB anymore. My second primary made me change a lot. I became more of an introvert, more self-conscious and less dependent on others. I hardly forged any friendship that lasted after primary school, nor do I miss most of my classmates. I registered for secondary school later than most of my peers. I think that is where my late coming attitude started from. Though I am still working to change that. First day of junior secondary school, which was about day thirty to fifty for most other students,my

2 weeks ago by mardlifetv I have been an admirer of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith for a while now. Looking at their family, it seem like the perfect blend of husband and wife material, resulting in arguably one of the most beautiful family in Hollywood. Nigeria has had a massive fascination with this term, as well as husband material. As a matter of fact, a perfectly acceptable explanation for ending a dating relationship or engagement is “she is not wife material”. Mothers are pressuring their marriage eligible daughters to display more of wife material-ish (or ism, whichever is right). Meanwhile, I have always wondered,
2 weeks ago by mardlifetv Magnanimous In Victory, Graceful In Defeat Nigerians have a collection of some of the innately proudest tribes on the face of the earth, which makes it difficult for them to handle victory or defeat healthily. Be magnanimous in victory, and graceful in defeat is one of the most underrated sayings in the history of mankind. This is despite the fact that man has been a race that has nonstop been at war with itself. Every civilization, tribe and nation knows that it will win some wars and lose some. They have experienced both victories and defeats. Yet, the way we

If we had our way, more of us would choose the front of the bus, the back of the church and the center of attention. The number of people watching you is directly proportional to the stupidity of your action. You cannot achieve the impossible without attempting the absurd.

A small wedding, with just the closest of family and friends was all I asked for. Did you agree? We'll shut down the street, kill two cows, after I paid through my nose for your bride price. Are we feeding a village? The finest gown, the chicest shoes, the glamest bag, what else could a bride ask for? Flower girl, bridal train, squeezing into the limo. After all, you only get married
2 weeks ago by mardlifetv A norm is defined as something that is regarded as typical or normal. It is also a rule that is enforced by members of a society. By this definition, I will propound that there is personal and then societal norms. Personal norm being things that me and you as separate individuals have decided or developed to be our individual way of doing things. Societal norm will be everything that the collective society have rightly or wrongly accepted to be normal. Some have been widely accepted and backed by the constitution on different levels, while others are accepted on different social
