Here is a video of The Rhymes Guy's entire performance in my office. This man wasn't bothered by my inquiries, my videos, the remarks, or the laughter. He was really excited to share his rhymes and stories.

you’ll just know when a book is written by a diaspora nigerian, idk how to put it but it’s like they want it to seem nigerian so bad that it ends up forced and not natural. i just search google and i am never wrong. almost like they’re so out of touch or something.
