Igwe-Dbanj

[Shiftee88]

When he says "Dbanj-ooh" it sounds like hes saying Panchod, which means "sister fucker" in Punjabi. Could u imagine a Sikh kid playing this and his parents beat him lol.

[OyOdime]

Na wa for some Igbo/Ibo people's comment on here and very glad that most people are not responding to such comments cause they are useless....thought y'all be calling yourself Christians..".what would Jesus do"?..You all are confused folks(those people who comment negative)....I am one Nigeria Yoruba-Hausa-Igbo and the orther smaller languages....Peace out! You all can curse me out too. You just wasting your energy!

[Nneka134]

Nice song, but you guys copied the intro from the Legend Sir Victor Uwaifo. Isnt that copyright?

[kweencessX]

@Nneka134 Sample. Everyone does it, so its nothing now.

[acho93]

do you have lyrics?

[jayjaykayode]

the guy is yoruba,...he just learned Igbo...nd i would love to learn Igbo bc im Yoruba!!!!

[chilo934]

@jayjaykayode Actually, if you bothered to read the comment I replied to, you would realise that in fact you are the dumbass. Also, note that I did not say 'only Igbo people are Nigerian', there is nothing incorrect at all in what I said.

Lastly, Nigeria includes way more cultures than the 3 you've just mentioned - yet another reason why you're a dumbass.

[SuperQueenofAfrica]

@chilo934 wazobia!

[mychickbad92]

@jayjaykayode no actually don jazzy is igbo...

[Pengaploopa]

@mychickbad92 I think he meant "this guy" as in D'Banj.

[jayjaykayode]

[MillaNada]

[vicky7377]

abeg i wan no where Dbanj come from 9ja

[captownstateofmind]

@vicky7377 Parents from Osun, Born in Kaduna or Katsina i can't remember and has lived in almost every state cause his father is in the nigerian military

[biggybante1]

Where the D'banj came from is not a case i like his musics so much, whenever i heard his music i always remember home. One love bro keep it on leave this one way dey talk any how.

[jurugirl]

Some people say we as blacks from the America's must go back home to mother Africa. here they are fighting about languages in songs then what will they tell me who don't know any of these languages and cultures. the only thing i have is the black color. i don't even know which country my ancestors were from cuz the slave driver whites didn't administrate that. music is a nice thing that bring peep 2gether leave it that way please guys.

[temitolu]

@jurugirl pls can u say that one more time and louder pls.. way to gooo babes. 9jas see ya lives?

[202eng]

@jurugirl : Well spoken

[9jababiie]

who mama is ibo not dbanj my cousin jede is a music signer and me ans his younger sister have dbanj plent of time trust he is full nigerian blood (no lie)

[chilo934]

@9jababiie igbo people are Nigerian!

[9jababiie]

@chilo934 well you cant blame me im not that bright but cant wait going to 9ja in december for ma cuz wedding cant wait love that place 9ja 4 life

[jayjaykayode]

@chilo934 NO!!! 9ja is Yoruba,Igbo nd Hausa...dumbass

[babyjells]

Why must people be so close minded!!! Abeg, this is a great song! So what he's singing in Igbo when he's Yoruba- Nigeria is not America!! Many naija speak other languages other than their own native tongue. Sheesh! Ndi Nigeria kwenu!

[OyOdime]

@babyjells abeg, tell them make dey know....#Ican'tstandclosedmind­edpeople.

[AmaOnyeOgabu]

i am really impressed, I couldn't tell that he was not ibo untill I read his biography. we he is from millitary background, he can easily adapt to any culture, great job tho, kudos d'banj

[kelikel2]

Does't matter whether he sung in Igbo or efik yoruba or bini or etc.. For me, i like that he is from another ethnic group( yoruba) giving homage to another in this case (igbo). I can see him easily doing another language. The main point is that he has identified as a NIGERIAN with other NIGERIANs of another language who have bestowed recognition and gifts upon him. Clearly he was moved by it and relayed that in music , which is his platform..All the other igbo is best talk is pointless.

[dexteritytc]

Dbanj!!! Carry go!!!!

[romantikvoice]

@peace 183 are u sure?dbanj mum na ibo?

D'banj was born to a successful artillery officer who commanded an artillery regiment and a street was named after him in Alamala barracks Abeokuta and a church dignitary mother, who hailed from Shagamu in Ogun State. Due to his father's profession, he moved several times within Nigeria and also moved to India. D'banj was expected to follow his father's military career and was enrolled to the Nigerian Military School, Zaria at age eleven.[2]

[lancesub]

This boy abi should i say man, dbanj is definitely reaching out to all of his fans.

[ikn001]

you will definitely see igbo parents loving this song.

[MissNaija]

O si na nwata buru ogaranya

My fav line is Okazi, maka God otoruto! as in don jazzy provided the right lyrics! bbig ups to him as well as d'banj

[d1the1]

thanks 4 interpretin proudnijagirl and thenonye....

[d1the1]

what does "O si na wata puro ogaranya" mean?

[thenonye]

Means someone that became a rich man as a kid.

-became rich as a kid.

[kenykendo]

a child that has become a rich man

[d1the1]

can any ibo person in the house inteprete the meaning of the title they gave him..the long one he says before he say "na im b d title dem give me" in the hook b4 d chorus(not igwe)?

[proudnijagirl]

It means "A child has become a rich man" or "someone that made money while his still a kid."

[spironfrenz]

his album is coming out dis month...i believe this is part of his album, d guy is really doing big...his songs keeps coming out non-stop unlike the rest, the guy is too much...he is so damn talented...big ups to d banj and don jazzy...No Long Thing!!!

[abrokenlife]

His album called "MR ENTERTAINER" DBANJ wants to use it to kill off those who still think he's fluke or else pls listen to MAJE

[d1the1]

nice...very nice

[Ifygurl]

The beat sounds like something that will be in an aunthetic igbo song. Love this. And i bet you my parents will love this, just because of the beat.

[MissNaija]

yes the beats are so igbo, this will def be played at igbo events

[chickram]

lol nice. i will luv to see more of this.

[me4reall]

These guys are just real entertainers and have given us another hit tune to spice up our parties. This sound can be rightly discribed as a fussion of ikwoklikwo merenge hiphop koko beat. Dbanj and Donjazzy don't want to spare any age group as this song is likely to send both mamas and papas rocking especially in igbo social functions. Dbanj is truely a music ambasador and I forsee an igbo chieftancy title in the offing to add to his intimidating list of accolades. Congrats !

[MissNaija]

Don jazzy knew exactly what he was doing by bringing this in, as in now you'll have igbo parents buying d'banj's CD exclusively for that song!!

[chinwo]

seriously, u r ryt!

[kenslay]

Nice song...... samples OH Koh By Manu Dubango

[dewicupe]

men dis jam 2 bad... big up dbanj/skibanj....

luvn dis song men. importer... exporter . kokowater... lol

[dennylive]

na wa o! see how d'banj use igbo language impressive!

[mykeluche]

this jam is good for listening while drinking

and eating nkwobi/ngwo ngwo or isi ewu pepper soup. It's a beer parlour song. I do hope it will appeal to our old mama's n papa's...highlife'its great big ups to Don Jazzy n D Banj.

[egm4life]

Don Jazzy really is da man.

[joshuakoko]

bad ass song,big ups to dbanj and don jazzy
