    Now he’s thinkin’ ’bout me every night, oh
    Is it that sweet? I guess so
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    Move it up, down, left, right, oh
    Switch it up like Nintendo
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    I can’t relate to desperation
    My give-a-fucks are on vacation
    And I got this one boy and he won’t stop callin’
    When they act this way, I know I got ’em
    Too bad your ex don’t do it for ya
    Walked in and dream-came-trued it for ya
    Soft skin and I perfumed it for ya
    (Yes) I know I Mountain Dew it for ya
    (Yes) that morning coffee, brewed it for ya
    (Yes) one touch and I brand-newed it for ya (oh)
    Now he’s thinkin’ ’bout me every night, oh
    Is it that sweet? I guess so
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    Move it up, down, left, right, oh
    Switch it up like Nintendo
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    Holy shit
    Is it that sweet? I guess so
    I’m working late, ’cause I’m a singer
    Oh, he looks so cute wrapped ’round my finger
    My twisted humor make him laugh so often
    My honey bee, come and get this pollen
    Too bad your ex don’t do it for ya
    Walked in and dream-came-trued it for ya
    Soft skin and I perfumed it for ya
    (Yes) I know I Mountain Dew it for ya
    (Yes) that morning coffee, brewed it for ya
    (Yes) one touch and I brand-newed it for ya (stupid)
    Now he’s thinkin’ ’bout me every night, oh
    Is it that sweet? I guess so
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    Move it up, down, left, right, oh
    Switch it up like Nintendo
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso
    Thinkin’ ’bout me every night, oh
    Is it that sweet? I guess so (yes)
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know
    That’s that me espresso (yes)
    Move it up, down, left, right, oh
    Switch it up like Nintendo (yes)
    Say you can’t sleep, baby, I know

  • Play FirstKlaz and Iliya Entertainment Music’s ‘Alhaji’ more than once

    How could you not dance like Charlie Brown and his squad when this sizzler plays?

    [media-credit name=”Instagram” link=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DDFgx6JgDA1/?img_index=1″ width=819 align=”center”][/media-credit]

    One of the last things FirstKlaz did during the festive period in 2024 left his fans with a sparkling new collaborative track featuring his Hausa-speaking musical band, Iliya Entertainment Music. The exuberant and joyous Nigerian artist unleashed another on-brand hypnotic record about chopping on his raba. Based on the little I could pick up from the lyrics mixed with Yoruba, the Abuja-bred emerging star lets us know he is different from the pack and asserts that he could handle a vanilla nyash. What does the title of the song translate to or mean? An alhaji is a title given to a Muslim man who has completed the Hajj, a religious pilgrimage to Mecca — often used as a title of honour. 

    FirstKlaz, our first digital magazine issue star covering GRUNGECAKE AFRICA, promoted the single with videos posted online of him and his guys dancing to the track. Here are a few examples.

    I wish the lyrics were available on his Spotify profile, but maybe they will magically appear soon. To the artists reading this, adding lyrics is something to consider when you want to capture international audiences seriously. In any event, listen to the Ransom Beatz-produced banger more than once.

    C’est resté officiel et toujours la même
    J’suis dans un sale bourbier
    Et maman ne fait que de prier
    J’ai oublié les années, les années où j’ai merdé
    J’sais pas si je les appelle “amis”
    Ils se comportent comme mes ennemis
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá
    Et vu qu’ils ragent sur moi
    Ils disent que je n’aurais jamais le platine (platine)
    J’sais pas si je les appelle “amis”
    Ils se comportent comme mes ennemis
    Je chante la mélodie pour me sauver
    Est ce qu’un jour papa je serai sauvée?
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    À la base, ils étaient pas là (pas là)
    Même ceux en dessous des draps (des draps)
    Parler et reparler, même si ma tête n’est plus là
    Nan, j’peux pas m’cher-lâ, nan, j’peux pas m’cher-lâ
    Ils vont parler et reparler même si mon corps n’est plus là
    Ils font semblant de pas me reconnaître
    Mais quand je suis devant eux ça crie “Merveille et SOS?”
    Ils font semblant ils veulent me la mettre
    Mais quand je suis devant eux ils font semblant de pas me reconnaître
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Paquetá (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)
    J’te fais danser comme Lucas (ah, ah, ah, ah-eh)

  • Tito Double P and Peso Pluma’s ‘Dos Días’ lyrics (English)

    Read the finger-pointing lyrics to Tito Double P and Regional Mexican music superstar Peso Pluma’s ‘Dos Días’ in English.

    One, two, three
    One, two, three
    A few drinks for the belly
    That parakeet, honestly, just won’t go down
    I’m upset because you won’t tell me what’s going on
    Two days angry, two days he hasn’t talked to me
    Another one of your antics
    I’m here with my friends and you’re always exaggerating
    When you say “I love you”, girl, I just don’t believe you
    Everything I planned went to hell
    Look what I became
    I love bales, I suck money
    Baby, I warned you
    That when I was alone I was a shithole
    It wasn’t me, it was you
    That I became addicted to hanging around in this madness
    Guacha what I got
    A lot of asses and not one of them fills me up
    Oh, mom
    Tito Double P, ah
    That’s what the fucking Double P sounds like, dude Tito
    Ay-ay-ay
    Bye
    Fuck, I don’t even like sex anymore Come on
    You answer me halfway, my girl, tell me what’s up
    I remembered the nights we fucked there in your living room
    Well, I went by your house and said hello to your mom
    Look what I became
    I love bales, I suck money
    Baby, I warned you
    That when I was alone I was a shithole
    It wasn’t me, it was you
    That I became addicted to hanging out in this madness
    Guacha what I got
    A lot of asses and not one of them satisfies me

    Un, dos, tres
    Un, dos, tres
    Unos tragos pa la panza
    Ese periquito, la neta, nomás no se baja
    Ando atravesado porque no me dices qué pasa
    Dos días enojada, dos días que no me habla
    Otra de tus payasadas
    Yo aquí con los panas y tú siempre de exagerada
    Cuando dices “te quiero”, mija, nomás no te creo nada
    Todo lo que planeaba se nos fue a la chingada
    Mira en qué me convertí
    Me encantan las pacas, me mama el dinero
    Baby, yo te lo advertí
    Que estando solito yo era un cagadero
    No fui yo, sino por ti
    Quе me hice adicto a andar en еsta loquera
    Guacha lo que conseguí
    Un chingo de culos y ni uno me llena
    Ay, mamá
    Tito Double P, ah
    Así suena la puta Doble P, compa Tito
    Ay-ay-ay
    Chau
    El polvo ya ni me pasa
    Me contestas a medias, mi niña, ya dime qué transa
    Me acordé de las noches que chingamos allá en tu sala
    Pues pasé por tu casa y saludé a tu mamá
    Mira en qué me convertí
    Me encantan las pacas, me mama el dinero
    Baby, yo te lo advertí
    Que estando solito yo era un cagadero
    No fui yo, sino por ti
    Que me hice adicto a andar en esta loquera
    Guacha lo que conseguí

  • Watch M.anifest, The Cavemen and Flea’s video for the incredible ‘Puff Puff’ more than once

    “Puff puff pass o”

    Two months ago, M.anifest, one of Africa’s highly skilled and celebrated emcees, teamed up with the beloved modern Nigerian Highlife musical duo The Cavemen for the remarkable dance track ‘Puff Puff’. For the visual, the West African stars cruise the city in the back of a vintage vehicle before heading to the beach for an impressive performance shot with Flea. In a denim get-up and dark shades, thought-provokingly, the Accra-born legend raps about how the human race allowed social media statistics to occupy a large portion of our lives and dictate our worth, the seemingly everlasting issues baked into society linked to the decline of African currencies, escapism as a result, and more of his daily observations. Watch the attractive music video below and stream the track, which is out now exclusively through Mass Appeal.

    [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEfU8TKQO3U&h=315]

    You may want to watch it more than once to learn the lyrics and replay the excitement displayed by Flea, the Australian-American bassist and founding member of the legendary American Rock group Red Hot Chili Peppers. He plays the trumpet on this song.

    [Verse 1]
    Okay, it was fun at first
    Playing oh, so chill to make it work
    Wanting you so bad until it hurt
    Cuz I know that’s how you like it
    Bloody knees I’m in the dirt
    Home alone catastrophize the worst
    Knowing so damn well that I would cave
    And be yours, if you said the word

    [Pre-Chorus 1]
    I’m thinking
    Can’t stop thinking of you
    Know you’re probably
    Thinking of somebody else
    I fell in too deep
    I took some liberties in
    Stories of you that I told myself

    [Chorus]
    I’m not crazy
    Know it’s fiction, baby
    But I’ve got you where I want you
    In my head
    I can fill the blanks in
    Words that you’re not saying
    Like you need me, want to be
    More than friends
    I got you where I want you
    In my head

    [Verse 2]
    I’ll sleep easier and say
    Know you’re out with her but either way
    You’ll come stumbling home and think of me
    Tonight I’ll be your drunken fantasy

    [Pre-Chorus 2]
    You’re thinking
    Can’t stop thinking of me
    Though it’s probably
    Only what I’ll tell myself
    Close my eyes
    The truth but modified
    Know it’s not real life
    But I can barely tell

    [Chorus]
    I’m not crazy
    Know it’s fiction, baby
    But I’ve got you where I want you
    In my head
    I can fill the blanks in
    Words that you’re not saying
    Like you need me, want to be
    More than friends
    I got you where I want you
    In my head

    [Bridge]
    In my head
    We’re kissing in the bathroom stall and
    In my head
    I’m tracing down your body with my fingertips
    I know it isn’t real so how’s it feel like this
    In my head, in my head
    There’s seven different versions of you
    In that dress
    Your face is painted on the back of my eye lids
    I know it isn’t real so how’s it feel like this
    Feel like this

    [Chorus]
    I’m not crazy
    Know it’s fiction, baby
    But I’ve got you where I want you
    In my head

    Try to separate my love and friendship from my time
    It don’t make sense that we still teeter on this line, oh, ah
    Why’d you sit me down to talk if all these emotions escape your mind?
    Don’t wanna give you my heart if you can’t promise you
    You gon’ call me in the morning when you want it
    Pussy golden, have you feeling like a billionaire
    Felt the urge, I made the text and you responded
    No more going back and forth like we a rocking chair
    Just take your time with me, ooh
    Take your time with me, yeah
    Pretend there was no one before you (ooh)
    Pretend it was you from the start (ooh)

    Want me to be gentle, that’s part of the deal
    So I’m takin’ my time, two-tone AP, not wastin’ my time
    You should do me like a sergeant if I can’t stay in line
    Call me out, cuss me out and shit
    That’s the punishment you pay for being counterfeit
    Back and forth like a rap beef, did you sign off from your ex?
    If he texts, you should tell him you at me
    I want you above me, but this shit is beyond me
    You’re fightin’ to be hard, I’m really your heartbeat
    With all the back and forth, I was keepin’ the tab open, but you set the bar
