  • @sexyhazel35 lol..how can i say that in english..i think i will use the word "hustler"..i think that best defines it..

  • @sexyhazel35 borbor means boy and pain means pain but roughly translated it means a boy that can withstand pain or suffrings.

  • @sueme55  GRAERDM

  • @sexyhazel35 Borbor pain is a someone who grew up with sufferings most or all of his life time. Especially having come from a very poor background or being raised by extended family members and lacked or refused the basic things children should get in their up-bringing. (The pain in up-bringing ) Borbor means = Child

  • Emmerson sings in KRIO,lingo in Sierra Leone, a form of broken English.

    Emmerson relates trials, travails of suffering folks in that African nation. You overseas, to appreciate the lyrics.

    Eg. :" We who are not rich-born have a raw deal but we still hope for the best... "

    That is opening.... Emmerson at the end stresses hard work, as he dercries the short-change from 'the powers-that-be.'

    bi-Lingual. cheers!

  • I can't count how many times I have listened to this song this night. I am from Cameroon and I can barely understand what he is saying but I love it.

  • @nainbo1 You need make some person slap you hard. From Cameroon and you like this stupid music with all the wonderful variety from Cameroon? This song, like ALL other Sierra Leonean music is pure rubbish. No creativity. Lacking originality or even sense. Idiot songs from Sierra Leone.

  • @grazzellian you're a joke

  • @grazzellian agree with you 1000 percent. Sierra leone artists are shitttt. the people accepts what comes as long as its their own blackie boy on the mike. they copy cat a lot too from the west. ass holes they are ruining their own country with their rotten vibes.
