Proper bored today so maybe I'll do a thread of my favourite song in each Boogey project. Prolly just an excuse for me to talk about You and You. Let's see if I get bored enough
Ok done
1. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE - YOU AND YOU. This is the greatest Ashawoism song ever made. Early in his career Boogey got criticised because apparently his songs were one dimensional and he complained too much blah blah blah. Songs like this prove that those bs takes were unfounded
It's a light hearted Playboy manifesto targeted at every woman he knows because Boogey can't choose. Also gave us the line " I know a chick who really sexy in a bikini, now you see the top now you don't I'm Boogey Houdini". I could talk about this song all day but moving on.
2. THIS IS NOT AN ACRONYM - SAID NO. I really wanted to say Ameno because Boogey + Zee = đŸ”„đŸ”„but said no wouldn't let me. The story telling is flawless but it's so sad, starts as a tale of unrequited love, with a sprinkle of Jealousy and morphs into one of Sexual abuse...
and murder? When he said "Imma say what happened next on one condition that you agree that I have become omniscient" my heart sank. "Don't let the love bug bite you, you'll be sick from the Venom". Yvonne ❀❀❀
3. IRREGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMME/BLEM - BABA YAGA. I watched John Wick because of this song. He warned us when he said 1 2 Boogey's coming for you. All I can say is your favourite rapper wishes he had a song this hard. I could quote every single line but I'll leave you with...
"Scientists finally deciphered the cypher let it show that I'm better than y'all". It's true Boogey is better than y'all.
4. FACE OFF - FACE OFF. I've never understood why some people say Boogey and Paybac have no chemistry like are you mad? Boogey and Paybac trading bars, sign me up everyday and twice on Sunday. Charlie X provides a timely reminder that Boogey and Paybac are broke men.
"I am the choosen one that they never gave any torch to"
"A sinister sinner trapped in a synagogue, minister replenish my spirit and have it sent to God".
Internals, end rhymes, multies bruh this track has everything.
5. INCOGNITO - RESURRECCION.
No female rappers in Nigeria? Think again. This song features like 6 of the finest rappers in the country irrespective of gender and somehow they all manage to be women. Boogey delivered the assist and then ran away before the booth exploded.
Also Maka dropped a fire hook.
"Dearly Beloved, my last challenger has barely recovered"
"You come for me, I come with Paybac like my last LP". Lastly why is @Phlowetry so good?
6. NOUVEAU NIVEAU - LIQUOR NIGHTS.
Sadly we never got S.A.D so NN is Boogey's debut solo LP. Before Falz sprinkled French in La fete, Boogey already used English and French to weave a tale of alcohol filled Marrakech nights. Tay Iwar blessed us on this track.
"My last shrink had to go see another shrink"
"This is living but my liver is expiring so fast".
Be truthful how many times have you promised to never drink again?
7. NEVER ENOUGH - THE UNIVERSE IS A BIG FAT BABY.
Boogey the stalker comes out to play again. Okay the girl did him dirty but this is how Joe started. Funny because she shot her shot, he didn't want a relationship o. Women smh. Paybac glided on this beat. Mon lee >>>>
"I saw your tweet telling dude you would text him later, calling him bestie saying thank you for the dress and make up. Stalking his IG and guess what I see after a thousand captions of the guy addressing haters, I tried to unlook but I turned investigator after I saw your name..
in his bio had to collect the data, I'm like wow they must really be close..."
Lol Boogey come outside
"I looked close and I saw something in his shades, I zoomed in looked like a blur of your face..." Wtf Boogey? Also it gets worse. Excellent storytelling.
8. ALTERNATE ENDING - UWAKA.
This is tricky, my favourite track on this Album is the boogeyman but technically Boogey isn't on it so next best. This is an Ode to haters, check out the video it's lit, Paybac is a clowwwwn.
After 8 projects in 8 years Boogey has earned the right to say "Don't compare me to niggas who had 5 singles and slept, when you mention my name better try and sprinkle respect".
If you're a hater "insert popular Hausa insult".
