Who's here listening to this classic in 2024.

[@Motivaate]

Indeed, no one knows tomorrow? Today might be your turn but comes tomorrow, it is another man/woman's turn. For those who are disheartened and discouraged, the song is prophetically implying that "you hold on and keep hoping in God, alone." You see, today is already here hence revealed. But tomorrow is out of everyone's reach and imagination except God (The Almighty). Hence the rationale of the song: No one knows tomorrow! In a sense, the operative word is that you must keep fighting, hoping and knocking on doors whilst keeping your faith intact in God's divine providence. And here is why? Only him [God Almighty] has the future in the palm of his hands. Thank you Prince Nico for these prophetic and undying words. RIP.

[@OfftheChainz]

Amen.

There was some people from my city bringing from París , Bruxels and the Caribbean islands this kind of music to the dancers in the popular and poor neighborhoods , between 70s, 80s and early 90s. We know many of your exponents. This músic has adhered to us the working class in a very charming way here you can heard Prince Mbarga, Rémy Ongala, Empire Bakuba, Pepe Kalle, Lokassa Yambongo, (qui est une légende ici), General Defao, Shimita and many others. .

He is Nigerian nah, why are you confusing yourself with words, is father is a Cameroonian and his mother is a Nigerian and he hwas raised in Nigeria by his mother and he sang all his song in his Nigeria mother tongue not in his father tongue Cameroon, all his song are strictly in Nigeria language and style not Cameroon...

[@solomonosemeke2761]

@@gtimerepochrist4361 I'm not confusing myself, hes father is cameeronian, which makes him cameeronian. And besides cameeronian pidgin English is virtually the same as nigerian pidgin English. So you can't easily tell the difference. Check he's profile online, he is actually cameeronian! And mom nigerian!

[@gallusuniverse805]

@@gtimerepochrist4361 It's true he was born in Nigeria from a Nigerian Mother and a Kamerunian father; but "Home be home" (in reference to his village essambong, Kamerun) you should ckeck it out!!! That song brought him lots of problems in Nigeria... most of his musicians were Kamerunian! Akiee! is from his native tongue (Ewondo) of Yaounde, Kamerun. He also said Akiee, Mbe dzam oh! which means in Ewondo, Unbelievable, bad news! he was buried in his village Essambong near Yaounde, Kamerun. Pidgin English is also spoken in Kamerun. it's not only in Nigeria. Home be Home! Essambong is his village in Kamerun. Long live Nigeria! Long Live Kamerun!
