Obia nye obia - the class debate

Tagged:  •    •    •    •  

Originally written on December 3, 2005

As if "Yefri Tuabodom" wasn't enough controversy for one summer, Sidney (Rap ninja) reminded everyone who the most controversial hiplife artiste was. His latest album gives us "Obia nye Obia", a song which preaches equality across the breadth of Ghana, in terms of respect, education, money and class. He argues that we all came from the earth and shall return to it, and so no one is above any one. In essence, everybody is nobody because a somebody is anybody/nobody after all. This statement doesn't sound too harmful until you hear a shoeshine boy telling his customer who works in an airconditioned office, "obia nyÉ› obia, wonyÉ› obia, me nso menyÉ› obia".

...Sounds on da ground and see-ins on the scenes

Okay, so I really want 2 write a blog about da subject of 'mini-skirts',abuskeleke dresses, and permit me, not 2 add a picture 4 that. You can google the keywords if you r interested. You'll find some interesting results. Or you can check this page to see what the fuss is all about

One of the popular songs on the Ghanaian music scene this year has been "16 years". This song talks about teenage sexual assault on and molestation of girls and advises men to desist from the practice. Why? Cuz if the latter doesn't control himself from chasing young girls, they'll tell their parents, and then, you know, the law would take its place.
