My Dirty Boxers

  I'm putting this out there because I'm fed up. Make of it what you will but I'm not sorry. Leave me the fuck alone. (Photo credit: Osas's status) I don’t know why people are making me look like an angry bird but today, I’m talking about random people that have conspired to annoy me again. Not like it’s new but na today e vex me so here we go! For a couple of weeks before December, I’ve been announcing and preparing myself a December to remember; I was very clear that it will be one hell of a #DettyDecember, and I am unapologetic about that but some people have decided to take advantage of that to do what they do best. When you ignore someone all year long and suddenly remember they can help you when you see peng pictures of them, don't you think it's demonic? It's okay to find ourselves needing to lean on someone but you can only lean on me if you're in my corner, I'm not doing Father Christmas again, they have stolen my red gown. Corporate beg...

  We had lots of despe last night and loads of others but I'm advising you, stay away from alcohol. (Photo credit: Desperados Nigeria) I woke up at few minutes before 10am, how I dragged myself into the bathroom and into the car to get to work beats my comprehension but all I will tell you is this: stay away from alcohol. Last night was dope at the table of men with Seye and the gang. Who goes to a birthday party on a Monday night? Has to be a Riquisan and I can only SMH for every single one of them in there last night; it was fun by all standards but omo! The hangover choke. It was nice seeing my people – Latifah Baba Ahmed and Trend again, chronic outsiders. The induction ritual was carried out by Titi and she also gave me edibles which I should never have taken from her, three shots fired and the rest is history. I still haven’t gotten myself back to form; Rambo isn’t Ramboing right now, it’s Ronke’s birthday and I’ll just grab some cake and exit the building. I know you w...

  Last night was dope with Desperados at the beach club. Let's do it again soon. (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) Last night was dope, from the premiere of Jade Osiberu’s Brotherhood movie at Joel Aeida to Despe’s Rave on the beach, a silent disco party… everything went according to plan and I must give it up for my team. If you think we’re not the best at what we do, you might want to show me who’s better. Today’s post isn’t about finesse or any topic in particular; I mulled over a few options but coming back from the recording of the MMS podcast, I’ll rather tell you about my week and wait till tomorrow to share something interesting I learned from Tisman’s post tomorrow. It’s a challenging week. Better than last week by all standards; the brief that sent us to the war front still hasn’t been closed but we’re not doing badly and, I’m pretty sure we’ll close it by Monday. I’m excited about the new turns and maybe, it’s always cool to listen to second opinions. The highlig...

  Let's party on the beach with Desperados tonight... Shall we? (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) …At about 10pm, Hillary’s phone rang and she gestured to me to not say a word; I wasn’t bothered because I’d rather act, not talk in that scenario. The voice at the other end found its way to me, I’m sure I’d written about the quality of my ear drums in the past. It wasn’t a pleasant conversation; it was her boyfriend and it was quite heated. A lot ran through my head; I thought this girl said she was single and we agreed to date? Apparently, I was a placeholder, more like a filler but I pretended I didn’t hear a thing. Moments after she dropped the call, she stepped out of the car without saying anything; She came back about five minutes later and asked we go into the party. I dragged myself out and limped after her, we got to the fourth floor and right at the entrance, I was introduced to my first embarrassment. It was a ticketed event; Hillary was supposed to be someone’s pl...

  There was a time in my life I used to be like this. Lining up to sing hymns and special numbers. I'm back to Jesus tho. (Photo credit: Google) Forget the part of me that can’t stop leaning towards “ shedibalabala ” and what Desperados has turned me to but forget, I’m a Jesus baby and I’ll die on that hill. You can “ yinmu ” from today till tomorrow, it won’t change the fact that I’m a child of God and certain things appeal to me beyond worldly nonsense. The past few days have been challenging and that’s basically on health grounds. My back problems came around again and of course, my ankle usually responds to it. One thing that keeps me going is the serenity that comes with hymns. I love singing or hearing hymns. One thing that works perfectly as my muse outside Jane Mena and all those things you’re thinking is the CAC Hymn Book. E shock you? My guy don’t dull, I’m very big on Christ Apostolic Church hymns and I can tell you for free that you can get me anytime through hymns....

  I am disappointed that Ayinla didn't get nominated in any category for AMVCA but we live to fight another day, (Photo credit: My photo gallery) I haven’t said anything about the AMVCA nominations since it was released and you won’t be wrong if you thought I was heartbroken, yes I was and I haven’t recovered from the shock but I’ve found solace in the fact that I’ll be seeing my ideas play out at the event, fair enough. Err… Do you need me to explain that? Well, Desperados, Tiger Beer, Lush Hair and Amstel Malta – the headline sponsors are brands my agency work with, hence we’ll be activating the event from start to finish. Back to the point, I was shell shocked that Adedimeji Lateef didn’t get a single nomination for the monstrous 2021 he had and that Ayinla didn’t get a single nomination as well; I couldn’t understand why and for two days, I was dazed like I hit my head on the wall but again… It is what it is. Why would I think Ayinla should be nominated? The story was imp...
