Lagos Contemporary

This in my opinion is the most famous illustration of lagos and i thought it was perfect for our opening image and header. It just says so much about the city- contemporary, fast-paced, beautiful, a huster’s utopia.

Some people may look at this photograph and think “chaos” but I look at it and appreciate the beauty of the city. This illustration represents a lively, multi-faceted and tireless people also known as Lagosians.

P.S: I thought the photo will be incomplete without a random POPO lingering around somewhere. Can u spot the popo?? *rolling eyes*

Farewell to "Ekaette"



Ok so this is a very serious topic. I've been laughing about it but its no jokes!!!

On the 1st of April 2010, the NATIONAL Broadcasting Commission (NBC) ban the song and video of "Ekaette" by Maye Hunta. Honestly. Do these people have nothing better to do?! If there is no work in their office, can they not disestablish their commission and stop wasting precious labour?! There are so many serious issues that public organisations in this country need to deal with and it seems the most pressing issue in their eyes is the indecency of Maye Hunta's attempt at conscious music in "Ekaette". Whats so risque about the song anyway??

Everytime an artist tries to express himself on the problems of our great nation, the NBC hushes them (same situation with the song "Wetin Dey", Remember?). Honestly. Have they never heard of conscious music?? Yes it was funny and all but it was also a serious topic. Pls if anyne knows anyone who knows anyone who works in NBC, can u let them know that FSL and the rest of Nigeria thinks they should "get busy and quit beating around the bush".

Anyhooooos! Just to take the piss. I've uploaded the video to frustrate their efforts and for the benefit of those who havent seen it. :-))
