Phyno’s “ONE CHANCE” – An International Collaboration That Shouldn’t Have Happened
The rapper appears to have diluted his melodious virtuoso as he pitifully bundles this worse than average tune for his abounding fans. What is by all accounts the most exceedingly awful of the reality this would be recorded as a global joint effort in the artist rapper's discography in which he includes Jamaican move corridor/reggae vocalist, Kranium.
Personally, I feel this is just a weak attempt at creating a hit. No doubt, the party hippy sound is currently the ish right now but as a creative, Phyno betrays the art by coming out with something so willy-nilly.
In the past, Phyno had demonstrated to us that one doesn’t need a dance track to get popular like he did in the collaborative effort with his cohort, Olamide, on Ghost Mode.
My question is, is this the same Phyno who once said,
“I tell them I don’t wanna be the best rapper
I’m just happy am recognized, I flow proper
Dad said be the best in what you do and
Since rapping is what I do, then fvck it I’m his best rapper”?
Where is the Phyno whose rap verses restored the faith of people, especially easterners, in the relevance of Indigenous rap? The Phyno who went in bars after bars on songs and made classics out of them. Not this Fino who goes on saying,
“Me I no fit wait another day o
If no be your way i no dey go
Nwa i’m ready to do wetin it takes
Bet me oo”
Well, I guess not only Phyno is to be blamed, the rap culture in Nigeria is currently facing a serious decline because everybody just wants to wiggle their waist. Yes, you and I.
Personally, I feel we have gotten to a level where all genres of music should be appreciated and applauded not only the quick dance songs which have no shelf life.
Backpedaling to the tune, a great deal of work ought to have been done not simply giving us the standard pangolo music and shroud it under the buildup of having Kranium highlighted on it.
Ideally, later on, Phyno may very well recover his section by being that rapper who, in his words, got enduring air-plays without a move track.
Goodbye amigos!
