The song “Ali Go To School,” is quite self-explanatory as it talks about the artists’ being desperate to make money by hook or by crook to foot his bills.
Honestly, this song is encouraging cybercrime/internet crime otherwise known as Yahoo Yahoo in Nigeria. Just imagine, what Steven Adeoye said. He said that he wants to be like the internet fraudster, Ali. God, what is this world turning into? Nawa o!
I know this is the kind of song all those DJs will be jamming to. Phew! #Radarada
But I like the song though, the beat in particular, but I don’t like the message behind it.
By the way, how come Ali who is unintelligent in the classroom is now intelligent to defraud people through the internet? The last time I checked, you have to have real brains to do Yahoo Yahoo. Mtchew! Lazy Youth!
