Hello Afritunes, This is a video I had done before week 32. So I did some video editing and remixed it and so it to different clips added together. I hope you like it.

It's Banana by Fireboy. I have loved the sound since it came out and I heard it on Youtube music. I think Fireboy stamped his place as a musician with this track because right now there is so much pressure for him to keep on coming up with hits and he never disappoints. I,n fact, I see Fire as the kind of guy who would much rather not make a song than make a song that's not a hit.

I really do not know the full lyrics to the song so I took one of my favourite rap lyrics and added it to a little video editing.

As you listen may you be blessed IJN.

Lyrics

Low-key
All of them don dey notice
I'm not joking
All my guys dem, dem know me
Since '06
I've been writin' this story
I no be OG
But, if you ask dem, dem know me
I no dey blow trees
Orin lo nyi mi l'ori (l'o-o-ri)
Music chose me
Just know this and know peace (know peace)
I dey lowkey
But, I'm never lonely
Sexy ladies
Come whine fi me slowly
Na the love wey I see na hin wey give me liver
I be ghetto boy, I be sinner
Fear nobody, only Jehovah
And, I thank the Lord, I dey go far
Usain Bolt, mo d'aleba
Shout out s'awon t'emi ninu Shitta
Bandana lori bi ti 2Pac
Midnight walkers, Karashika, ahh
Dem never see me comin' (joor-joor, joor-joor)
Hmm-mm, comin' (l'Eko)
Mo gbe wan ni "is coming" (ii-yeah-yeah, oh-yoh)
Naija boy wey dey go foreign (wey go foreign)
Wey go foreign (wey go foreign)
Oshey, Mr. Money (oshey, Mr. Money)
I'm never weak, I never cease (ahn-ahn)
'Til eternity, I'm on fire
My legacy will not die
My family is for life
Where dem dey?
Who dem be? (awon da?)
Dem go craze, dem go tire
Dem go say, dem go say (dem go say, dem go say)
"Dem no know wetin dey sup" ("dem no know wetin dey sup")
But, low-key
All of them don dey notice (ahn-ahn-ahn)
I'm not joking
All my guys dem, dem know me (ahn-ahn, ahn)
Since '06 ('06)
I've been writin' this story (sto-ry)
I no be OG
But, if you ask dem, dem know me
(Giddem)
Na the love wey I see na hin wey give me liver (give me liver)
I be ghetto boy, I be sinner (I be ghetto boy, I be sinner)
Fear nobody, only Jehovah
And, I thank the Lord, I dey go far (I dey go far)
Usain Bolt, mo d'aleba (aleba)
Shout out s'awon t'emi ninu Shitta
Bandana lori bi ti 2Pac
Midnight walkers, Karashika, ahh

Lyrics (stoic Vill)

Whoever thought a young'un' from a city full of rattlesnakes
Was ever gon' make it out the grass patch
Seven heels had me looking for a better deal
A hood nigga; I couldn't count on the NASDAQ
Coming home from school, I had tears in my eyes
They was picking on me and wouldn't give me my hat back
Now, I got enough hats to give away
It's better days, I refuse to have flashbacks
Nobody thought I knew what I was doing
Nobody believed, so nobody would walk me through it
But nobody achieved what I achieved
If only somebody could have just seen what I seen
Said they praying for me, don't we all got needs?
'Til I walk in the room, and they all just freeze
And they all look relieved, like, "Shit
If Faheem made it, now, we all got cheese"
Nah, homie, that ain't the way it work
Especially if you ain't even put in a day of work
Now, they going crazy 'cause I made it first
See, homie, I just made it work
It's a cold world, ask my old girl
She feel my pain, and I ain't even tryin' to make it hurt
And my daddy proud of me
But he got too much pride to say it out loud for me
Got that keyboard off the road, brought in the house for me
He coming to my shows, hanging in the crowd for me
Man, I still love my niggas
The only thing that I ask is that they hold it down for me
I still rep the 850, yeah
I got it tatted on my arm, it ain't goin' nowhere
But motherfuckers will say that you changed
And they the ones that wouldn't last a day in this game
Don't get me wrong, I ain't saying I stayed the same
But I guarantee that I will never succumb to the fame
That's some bullshit, and y'all know that ain't me
But I'd rather grow up than to stay eighteen
Life goes on and hopefully only great things
Traveling the world and seeing shit that I ain't seen
Then, one day, I look at my reflection
And realize how I been actin' and how I been dressing
I realize I can make an impression
But good Lord, this is fuckin' depressin'
And good Lord, I got some fuckin' questions
I think it's time for some motherfucking confessions
Wake up call, wake up call
My answer to every question was "Fuck y'all"
All I need is this 9-11 to fuck broads
I just need to find a seven with enough flaws
My last album ain't do numbers like I wanted to
But that was God tryna ask me what I'm gonna do
He said "I hate to put obstacles right in front of you
But you gotta learn to get out of what you're goin' through"
Hurdles got jumped, mountains got climbed
Til' Molly came and put a fuckin' wall up in my mind
Now I'm in the crib trippin', complainin' and bitchin'
That liqour go to hittin', I'm in here reminiscing
How many niggas told me I was gonna fail?
'Cause I got a list of niggas that can go to Hell
They feel like I owe 'em something 'cause they know me well
Calling me a sellout cause I won't come back and smoke a L
The same nigga that told me I had a hit
Charged me $300 to put it up in his mix
Now suicide lookin' better than hittin' the lick
'Cause the whole time they knew that I was livin' out my whip
But now I see 'em, and I can't even take iit
Cause he walk up to me and say:
"Boy, I knew you was gon' make it"
And like, "Motherfucker, do you not just recall?
I needed help, and you just left me sittin' on my balls"
That just wasn't the right life
So I told him bullshit, to have a nice life
And all them girls yellin' at me from in front of the moon
Like nigga, how you just gonna go and get a white wife?
Fuck you bitches, I did what I did
Now, I'm running round my mansion doing shit with my kids
But now, maybe my life is too sweet
Like I woke up in that Bugatti and went right back to sleep
Deep, I was dreaming, y'all niggas was scheming
Like crabs up in the bucket, but y'all just got defeated
And all these bitches, all just want my semen
The star collecting checks and ball up in the season
But ain't nobody give a fuck when ain't nobody give a fuck
Now, they got they hand out, asking me to give it up
And every time they ask me for something
They say, "Now, you know that I ain't never asked you for nothin'"
I got loss, I got loss
Credit cards got swiped, money got tossed
Hundred after hundred, dollar after dollar
Drinking every kind of liquor, then that Molly got swallowed
I know I fucked up 'cause I'm a grown man
So now, I'm thinking like my old man
He said "You wanna make God laugh?
Then look up in the sky and try and come up with your own plan"
Now, I see my niggas just want me to win
But I won't have 'em if I keep disrespecting my friends
They been through it, say they know the feel
So all I need is a trip up to Stoicville

That slow-motion entrance scene and the light effect at the beginning of the song was dopeeeeeeee!!!

The steady base line and singing at the same time requires some mind separation Techniques, and you did that without blinking.

Those rap lines were mind-blowing 🔥 🤯

You too good baba 🙌

My chief, thanks, na you we dey look to learn from. I saw some of your videos and they blew my mind.

I am glad you enjoyed watching the video

This is lovely brother, I enjoyed the rap.. you really did a good job by playing notes on the guitar and singing at the same time, that's amazing. Keep up the good work 👍

Thanks you!!, it was an old rap I scored some years back I thought sounded nice with the progression.

I am glad you enjoyed watching the video. I hope you top y some other time.

Yeah I'll definitely stop by 👍

I have watched on of your video from hive open mic, I love your vibe.

Your guitar was on point and you killed it bro.
Well done.

This was pleasant to watch...I want to learn to play guitar o🤔

Thank you. Gosh, you are making a black man like me blush....I have to man up before somebody watched me smiling.

If you want to learn I am open to teaching oh.

Hahaha😆
It's a free world, feel free to blush hehe

I wish to learn it.

Thank you.

The first step to learning any instrument is access to the instrument or a piano

Yeah, I thought about this. You need the instrument to learn with it. I wonder how much it costs now.

I think it is supposed to be somewhere between 30 to 50k but I'm not sure. Jumia usually has a good price range you can go to the market in mind with or you can just buy from them

You're blowing my mind with the way you sang the song differently, you are giving me vibe on vibe and I must confess that I enjoyed listening you ... 👏👏

Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed watching it. It was just a small mash-up I thought sounded nice.

I hope to see more of you around

Yeah , it's sound amazing..☺️☺️

A job well done to you bro, I really love your vibes

Thank you very much. I am glad you liked it.
