The JagzVolution [A New Consciousness]


[Jesse Jagz - Redemption]

The Ex-Choc-City Genius is at it again...
Jesse Jagajaga has finally evolved and let out his true form.

Like an alchemist, he has managed to stay relevant and
has carved out a niche for himself. 
creating a master-piece that speaks to the conscious mind.
its a much awaited change... if you ask me. 
tired of all the noise we have been forced to call music lately.
radically different delivery [rasta], 

"I never buckle to the pressure from 
me bare fucking"

"been seeking you face and daily 
I conquering Babylon Israeli style"

"fear no man and fear no duppy"

There is a boldness to this track and he sounds ready for whatever...

heavy on the bass [the way its 'posed to be]
the video... ohhh the video... 
them girls make me wanna... ohh that's a different song...
but 
DAMN! 
Love the Video! Period!

Will love to know when that album will be released. 
Bet it will be worth the wait.

By the way... will love to see Jesse and Damien Marley on a track!
And Jesse has to produce it!

The Tin Man


I have felt that pain couple times
pain in the gut, the feeling that you are missing something
someone
this pain is not new
for some reason, I get over it
I find what I am/was looking for

Each time I welcome her back
she lays beside me and promises not to leave me
and I believe her
forgetting her past transgressions I dive in

Head first

Forgetting her past transgressions… 
old memories and emotions take over
making me an emotional mess
but I endure, I might like it
because its her, 
She gives it to me good all the time

I am out with the guys, I see her
with a guy, comfy and snuggly
she sees me…

I laugh
at her? No. 
at myself? Yes.

Cos I am certain it’s the last time…
Knock on the door…
who is it? I ask…
a familiar voice answers... "its me"

My heart melts

I push the button…


Sitting, thinking about what I have done…
with a glass of Jameson in hand and 
ice dancing around in glass as if happy with what I had done
I smile and take long drag of the cigar…



Yes I did it.

HOLY WANKERS


i can't lie...
i am tired of being part of a society or better still secret society
of pedophiles and undercover man lovers... 
i am talking about the Catholic Church. 

we (i) have tried to disregard all the rumors and retarded-ass allegations of the priests and bishops
but i wake up everyday to find that once again they have wasted my time. 

yes you are human, yes you have urges, and yes you will sin... but..
NO you do not have to be a priest! 
the fuck is wrong with you people? do you realize the position you are/were sworn into?
do you realize how you affect peoples lives, believes and faith?
do you fucking understand that the only reason why that church hasn't crumbled today
is the individual beliefs and understandings of the teachings?
i put it to you that if you holy wankers were all we had to look up to the Catholic Church 
would be easily compared to an old-ass whore with no customers. 

Yes some of these allegations might be false, but i beg you stay away from compromising situations. 
stay away from shit that ties you to bullshit.
we know its not easy... but you made that conscious decision to carry that cross... 
if at any point it gets too heavy for you... drop it and keep it moving.
i honestly doubt that God will be pissed...

and for the rest of you that will read this and be like
"the Catholic Church has lost it"
Think again... without this church a lot of us would not know what it means to be Christian...
yes... the church has been infiltrated with pretend priests and cardinals but i know that they 
 will answer to some higher power after all is said and done. 

our doctrine brings us together, our faith keeps us together
and you holy wankers will not tear us apart...

FUCKTARDS!

We were Toy Soldiers

Friend of mine shot this video... 
i know a number of film makers... they all good in their own way 
but this dude makes it look easy... 
i was privileged to be part of this process to some extent, 
and what i saw and learnt during this period... 
i would say i was sitting with one of the best film makers i know...

there is always a story to be told... there is always an audience... 

i hope to see more from him and be part of other projects 
if i can get my lazy ass out of my own way... 

Enjoy...

The Absence of Essence


We walk around like we have things under control, like we know what the future holds..
we laugh, cry, scream, cuss, mock people, fall in and out of that illusion called love and even wish the worst for people…

our days are numbered on this earth… that's a promise.  
this year alone I have lost at least 3 friends if my count is right… but life always seems to go on 
not a bad thing… but a necessary thing. 
The problem is the way we handle the matter.

It takes death to help us acknowledge what someone means, might have meant or could mean to us… one minute everyone is against you and the minute you are no more they all come out wailing and ranting, spouting weightless rubbish out their mouth and now to make matters worse… everyone gets a voice through the every expanding social media.
If you ask me, I think it’s about the need for people to have someone to point a finger to… 
someone to compare and judge, someone you can use as a measure for 
moral, relationship or financial success. (to list a few)

I don’t wish I met her but I know there are people out there that feel the pain of her exit. And for me it’s a joke that everyone takes to twitter to communicate feelings. Say a prayer for her family and keep it at that… social media makes a joke of a lot of things…  
“remember that opinions are like ass holes… everyone got one”

I hope we learn to be a little more sympathetic and sensitive to peoples pain.
Death is the absence of one’s essence, never to be felt again… that moment of silence is necessary… try and remember a lost one’s essence and say a prayer.

as a friend used to say… 
Live Love Laugh.

Its not that SERIOUS!!!



Yo… its Christmas once again…

...the freshers (i just got back kids)
the oldies (we run this town)
the old coots (we old but we young at heart)...

everyone will be out! 

but is it just me or is the clubbing experience in Lagos gradually going to hell…
I mean I understand it’s a club and all and that people are supposed to be there… 
and yes they are supposed to be drinking… 
now I have to be honest… 
there aren’t that many options out there and the few that will pass 
are so overcrowded that it’s a fire hazard.
I mean why would I want to be shoulder to shoulder with people I don’t know?…  
maybe the opportunity to sneak in accidental kisses or “cop a feel” from an unsuspecting female is enough of an incentive to be there but seriously… 
is it really that serious?
outside the club there are people scattered all over the place… 
some trying to get in, some trying to get out others just trying to get laid… 
when you finally make your way into the club, 
your hit with that very still, heavy, stinky wall of air mixed with thick smoke 
in a room or space with little or no ventilation… 
people moving around in drones as if under the ever generous spell of intoxication.
Let’s not talk about the illusive idea of that one “special” space in the corner 
that keeps getting biggeras clubs spring up daily… 
I am talking about the little room in the back labeled VIP. 
What horse shit… 
what criteria does one have to meet to be welcomed to the clique of the Very Important People? 
I ask that to say this… 
there is nothing important about half the people in that room… 
including myself… I mean the hell do I do?... 
oh yeah… spend money; and guess what… 
so does half of Lagos state.

I was out one Friday night… 
started off at a place called Greenwich somewhere in V.I. 
this was the first for me and I was quite happy with what I saw… 
chill night, good crowd… the music tho… a little different 
but I got over that soon as the henny made its way into my system. 
It wasn't overcrowded, the music wasn't irritatingly loud, 
you could actually see through to the other end of the room. 
I mean you could actually talk to the person next to you and dance without being intrusive. 
This was a nice place to be… maybe just for that night though… 
might be different the next time I find myself there.

From there we made our way to Likwid… 
there was a debate about where to go though… 
this was between Likwid and SIP… 
hmmm not a big fan of both places…SIP on Fridays… 
at some point was a no no for me… 
would rather experiment slitting my wrist with a tea-spoon… (that’s changed now) 
get there early and you will have a blast! 
Likwid on the other hand… OMG!!! Don’t know about other nights... 
but that night was a mess… 
crowded, hot, sticky… I really don’t know how people do this… 
you walk in there and you wonder if everyone is ok… 
how do you have fun in such a place? 
I mean… it is HOT and dank! 
And the Christmas rush has just started… 
I think I will return to my haven… DeMarquee… if I really have to be out.

But really… I think I know what I will be doing this Christmas season… chilling with friends 
at a bar or the house with enough food, drinks and good convo.

Its really not that Serious.
