  14. Meka, you can’t be serious with that igbo>yoruba shit!
    I’m sure you don’t know anything about the nigerian tribes! Cause people from here would never say sum stupid like one tribe over the other. Theres still sum subconcious conflicts here & there, but most people know better. Cause they LIVE this shit!
    It’s sad that just some american blogger comes & says sum sh t hes not even related to!
    Sucker

  15. Blacks >>> Whites. See how stupid, & ignorant that comment was? I’m assuming you were trying to be funny, nothing funny about ethnic insults Meka..

  16. He didn’t even get into his “roots” that much, lol. He simply noted that he listened to a lot of different music.

  17. thumbs up for Igbo pride…and relax ya’ll. Ever heard how Italians talk about Sicilians and vice versa (same nationality)? It’s really just about pride. Yea you don’t have to say one is > than another, but Igbos been oppressed and discriminated against since the War, and we still end up making up the majority of successful Nigerians today. Don’t even need to brag about it really, just facts about some hard working people….IGBO KWENU!

  18. Nigerians be all up on this blog. fuckin Chukwumeka is tryna start the next Nigerian-Biafran war. N***as need to relax. Meka keep posting my cousins’ shit.
    Igbos Sunni and Cobe > this new maybach enthralled shit by this yoruba fool.

  19. i dont think wale was feeling that interview….getting that stardom assholeness. i hope not.
