School dey be

This song goes out to all the junior high and senior high students of this country
I know you love me and I love you too

Verse 1
If I go fit go back to JSS
I would have paid attention in class
If I go fit go back
I wouldn't have looked at my French mdame's ass
If I go fit go back to JSS
I would have taken my lessons very serious
Instead of sitting at the back and acting hilarious
With my best friend Kojo aka Aquarius
If I go fit go back to school
Chale, like I no go break any rule
Like breaking bounds to Kingsby hotel just to swim in the pool
If I go fit go ba

Campus

Ah, campus

P1 (Class 1) - Making sure everybody goes to school

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •  

...Sounds on da ground and seens on the see-ins It's that time of year again; first-year students are thronging the campuses of Tech (KNUST), Legon, UCC, etc while last-year senior secondary students have just completed their SSCE exams. Inevitably, some students would fail to make the cut to enter the tertiary institutions and this realisation hit me when I was listening to Okomfo Kwaadee's 'P1', a song on his latest album, 'Nsem pii'. P1 stands for 'primary 1' or the very first year in elementary school. Take a moment to think about the number of youth in Ghana who will be unable to go to school because they are unable to pay. And picture what the idle minds and hands are doing with their time.

Efie nipa - idle minds and working hands

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

...Sounds on da ground and seens on the see-ins Almost every month, we hear about workers' strikes, people calling for increased wages, better terms of service, etc, etc. These calls come from the brains that make our economies tick - the doctors, the lecturers, the civil servants, etc. Granted, the cost of living in Ghana is high and the wages of the middle-class do not seem to allow for a good standard of living. However, what about the Ghanaians who have no jobs? And those who have jobs which do not necessarily exercise their brains but keep their hands busy? Have we stopped to think about what our idle minds are up to these days? This realization hit me when I was listening to Okomfo Kwaadee's 'Efie nipa' recently. It shouldn't surprise you to hear the lyrics of the voice of the streets which is increasingly becoming Okomfo Kwaadee's tag.
