He is a liar

Verse 1
I was just 18, young, single and sexy
Having a party, nothing serious was on my mind
That's when I met him, tall and handsome and lovely
He smiled like an angel, had a sparkle down in his eyes
He told me he loved me, would do anything just to have me
He told me he wanted to be the one who can make me happy
I said to my mama, Mama, I think I found him
And Mama don tell me, girl, you must stop being silly
Can't you see?

Chorus 1
He is a liar, a liar (loop)
I was hypnotized, by his lovely eyes and his sexy smile (2x)

Enter the place, come open your mind, hook up with the kele with the biggest behind
Enter the place, come wind together, however, whenever
Enter the place, you don't know what you might find

Verse - Tuface
I see it, I feel it
A natural mystic that's in the air
You can feel it too, only if you enter the place with me
When you see me, and you think you know me
But you don't know about my story (enter the place)
Na there you go start to give God the g

Sampling African music - Soul Makossa

Soul Makossa Cameroun Manu DibangoThere have been many instances where African musicians have sampled popular American songs. The sampling gets done so blatantly that you could call some songs 'Thriller in Swahili', 'Amazing Grace in Zulu' and 'Unleash the dragon in Twi'. One popular remix or sampling is that of Banky W's Ebute metta which was also first known as the Nigerian remix of Rihanna's Umbrella. People may complain about the lack of originality of these African musicians but maybe they will care to know that Manu Dibango's Soul Makossa is part of the backbone for Rihanna's worldwide hit - Please don't stop the music. "Mama-se, mama-sa, mama-ma-ko-ssa" (mamase mamase mamakusa) is that line that has kept dance floors going since 1972.
