May 15, 2015

278

AbOriginal Music front-man, Eclipse, continues his 2015 campaign with “As A Boss,” the follow-up to his popular single “Gentleman,” currently enjoying positive radio and TV airplay and his recent “Niké Canvas” freestyle; featuring a cameo cosign from the Legendary Cool DJ Jimmy Jatt, the Eclipse-produced “As A Boss” mixes elements of Trap music with Afrobeat to produce a potential Street Anthem from the AbOriginal Music front-man. In line with the theme of the song, Eclipse also releases a snippet from the song’s video which, like “Gentleman,” has been directed by Mex, but has a more back-to-basics, yet still fresh, set of visuals; Eclipse is currently putting the final touches to his début EP, “City of Dreams,” tentatively set for release in the final quarter of the year. Containing features from Evaezi, Poe, Eva Alordiah and Morell, it promises to be one of the year’s most significant projects released by a “rookie” artiste. | ENJOY!!!

LYRICS

Intro
You know ka o hari di ka mmadu amaghi ihe o biara Lagos e me
Ezigbo afam bu Nkasiobi but for this you can call me Eclipse.
[You know so it doesn’t seem like one doesn’t know what he came to Lagos to do
My real name is Nkasiobi but for this you can call me Eclipse)

Chorus
As a boss wey I be
You know as e dey go
Anytime wey we show
They just pipe low [2X]
Kedi nke me last [Ole way]
Nwanne kedi nke me last [Ole way]
[What happened last (What’s the way?)]
[Guy what happened last (What’s the way?)]

Verse 1
May una clear road n’eze na bia
When I’m done with the game unu e rewe aja
Now you see me making money n***a nyem aka
That’s why all the chicks churi febata
[may una clear road the king is coming
When I’m done with the game you all will start selling sand
Now you see me making money n***a give me a handshake
That’s why all the chicks want to fly in]
Fine boy wey dey sing wey dey rap wey dey spin wey dey nack
Your sis and her best friend
Bad guy wey dey kill every track wey dey spit heavy rap
Don drop oya let’s trend
Hottest in the city where the pepper oya gimme
Got my ego in check and I always gotta keep it with me
Nwanne le anya make you look mana obu maka chukwu
Anyi ji emetunu gi ebere eme agbagi gburugburu
[Guy take a good look, it’s just for God’s sake
That we show you mercy, if you miss behave we will surround you]
Huh! Lord knows that I’m pissed to the max
Now they see me on top [who put him in charge]
Talking about the rappers that I murdered in the past
Then forgive me your honor I’m guilty as charged

Verse 2
This is what happens when you let a sick kid with dreams and skills and sins get trapped in the system
Matter of fact it seems obscene it’s his offspring that will end as the victims
But we taking over rock nations ain’t talking hova
Went from battle rapping to classic acting e make sure we hold bar
So jili nwayo pasa godi everthing you’ve heard
M’na dokashi the beat & I aint messing with your head
[So carefully ignore everything you’ve heard
I tear the beat apart and I aint messing with your head]
The time has come Armageddon for those of ya’ll who hold a grudge
To put it all to bed
I’m not just ill I’m a sickness so bros step back no dey near me
I’m the eclipse in the business I go block your shine better fear me

Verse 3
Last year was a dud
Spent of it sitting back feeling bored
Kicking back in the crib writing raps making beats
I just park waiting for my turn
But this year omo dem go hear me die
Pepper must rest and e sure me die
The boy don dey rise and the buzz don dey pile
Now the girls wey been no send me don dey call me die
But that’s fine hommie I’m prepared for it
The money the riches the fame and the glitches
The rumours the scandals the haters the snitches
The lovers the likes its part of the business
So Ikhane drop bar Tega drop bar me I spit bar
For real bros na so we dey go far
I be baller no be drogba you dey vex ba
But God dey… Allahuakbar
