if you don’t know at least half of these songs, your childhood was messed up 😒
okay kerewa was secular but is worthy of being mentioned too, for those that only have that to say.
it’s all “this thread is beautiful” “omg i love this thread” no one will say “you just made my day send your account number to my dm” ? 😔
if i didn’t/don’t get to reply your thank you, you’re welcome. no be pride.
someone just sent me money for this thread đŸ„ș. my people keep it coming if i made your day, i receive cash donations 😂
Okay okay I'd add 10 more songs to the thread cos now I realize I missed some very important ones out.
