Wonder by Gift Bank : New Gospel with Afrobeat

Afro beat?  Christian lyrics?
This is so much fun.
Here is Gift Bank's new single titled Wonder.
It has massive pastiches of Fela's Afro vibes. It will make you feel as though Fela were singing  to God.
Those guitars tunes are so reminiscent of the 80s Fela vibes.  Talk about the back up singers
Well,  they did a pretty good job.
Let Eledumare turn your life around with this one.
There is something playful about beat.  You just want to prance and pose and be photographed while the song puts a big grin on your mouth.
Gift Bank is an up and coming act.
Support him. You have got to love his dramatic baritone and the way he played with his notes in  a more Afrocentric kind of way.

People don't know anything spontaneously, rather, they  say what they already know, spontaneously. Now to the final expression #HaveSomethingOffPat? It means to know something or be able to do something perfectly; be perfect master of something . So rather tha...

Do you say 'talk more of' or 'talk less of'? Also, how to pronounce 'parliament'

My beautiful KIB students, today,  you will be happy learning the correct way to express yourselves. Nigerians have a way of changing typical English expressions to suit them. Someone still had to argue with me that the English expression 'Better the devil you know than the devil you don't "  is so wrong and does not make sense.  He opines that angel should be there.  He forgets that English can be quite illogical to our Nigerian minds. Lol. People say things like. 'He has not even proposed talk more of walking down the aisle with me' 'He does not have a car,  talk less a house" Well these two expressions or collocations are not common in British and American English. Here are the universal conventional English collocations for Nigerian English's  'Talk more of' and 'Talk less of',  #LetAlone 'Let alone' is  used to indicate that something is far less likely or suitable than something else already mentioned.
