‘Work Song’ is a track that’s dear to me. It featured all the way back on my debut album, and it’s a lovely feeling to know that people are still finding it and listening to it all these years later. Thank you to @Spotify for sending over this plaque to celebrate the song joining the Billions Club. To everyone who’s listened to the song and supported my work over the years, thank you so much. Your support means the world and I feel truly blessed to be able to do what I do. 🖤 📷 Christian Tierney

Saw someone say, “The internet was once a library and they turned it into a store,” and if you’re young I don’t think you can imagine how different the web used to be.
Having one of those days where I mourn the loss of the usable internet. It's become so degraded and empty, so full of bullshit and devoid of life, so much more difficult to navigate and enjoy. It's all platforms, products, sponsored posts, scams, scams, scams.

Good morning, please be you Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Ijaw, Urhobo, Tiv, Efik, Fulani, Ibibio, Isoko, Itsekiri and so on. Please vote Peter Obi and Kwakwanso for President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. APC have failed woefully, vote for NDC. ♥️🤍

Rumor has it that marketing is being rebranded to ‘engineering’ so that the boys can do it too. Just like programming was majorly a secretarial job done by women until it was rebranded to software engineering.
funny how we rebranded marketing to growth engineering

If we must grow cinema culture in Nigeria, cinema CANNOT remain a luxury. We need multiple accessible screens. We find how to take advantage of our numbers as a nation. Example, a N75m film sells 50k tickets to break even at 1500/tix. What am I not seeing?

You’ll record men who work in hair salons, men who are tailors, fashion designers, in the creative space, and post their videos online as clickbait, knowing full well that people will try to ridicule them. You’ve been going to hair salons all your life. You know that a lot of the men who work there are effeminate. You know the same is true of some men in fashion and other creative industries. You know this! So why are you suddenly acting surprised? There are millions of men who fit your definition of masculinity. Focus on them if you wish, but stop making a spectacle of those who don't. Stop deliberately singling people out, turning them into content and exposing them to public ridicule simply because they don’t fit your idea of what a man should be. These people are simply working, earning a living and minding their business. Let them be! Don’t make videos of them. LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE!!! ❤️

I authorize all of you to say that you worked for Beni industries, aka Galvani Capital LLC, at any point from 2019-2025 when I dissolved it Say that you were either an intern or a quantitative analyst In the off chance they actually reach out to me, trust me to tell them all about how exceptional you were and how lucky they’d be to have you

I’ll encourage men considered “effeminate” to be mindful of the interviews they grant. Unfortunately, some people are more interested in clicks, outrage and engagement than in telling your stories respectfully. They may film and edit your videos in ways that make you a subject of ridicule online, without considering your safety or the backlash you might face. Please be discerning about the platforms you engage with. You deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, not used as content for mockery & reproach. And remember, it’s always okay to say NO.

Meanwhile, some people are just born in countries like Norway. Life's so unfair.

If Tinubu can delay Tax Collection because he fears losing the 2027 Election, imagine what Nigerians will face if he wins a Second Term. Don't mortgage your future. Vote wisely. Tinubu Must Go!

Save these tips if you plan to visit IITA (from Lagos) 1. Take the train. You can only book within a 48hr window of your trip. First class has ton of leg room but the coach cabin isn’t bad as well. I did both 2. IITA itself is best reached for bookings over email. As of Nov 2026, their rooms start from N125k (single). The one bedroom is N160k. I stayed in both but preferred the one bed as it has a kitchenette 3. The food in the International House cafeteria is quite nice. Don’t miss the sea food okro, pizza (they have a proper wood-fired oven), the meat pies (baked fresh at 11am every day), suya and all the different varieties of pepper soup. There’s also fresh palmwine on some days and this delicious pineapple drink you absolutely need to try. 4. The tennis coach is amazing. Book a class with him. He is also super beginner friendly. 5. Don’t miss a tour of the grounds. If you are lucky, you’ll get someone to show you around the farms as well. 6. Sunset at the lake is a must-do. Ask to be taken to the peninsula and also the dam as well. 7. Please be respectful of the grounds. It is a quiet research environment. It is also plastic-free so dispose of all your trash in the designated bins. 8. The forest walk is also a cool thing to do but you need at least two people for that. I was solo so couldn’t do it this time 9. The cafeteria dj comes alive in the evenings so don’t spend all your time in the room 10. The staff are incredible. Tip if you can
As I was saying 📍Ibadan, Nigeria
