Dark Poet Ripple Effect (ft. Falz & M.i Abaga)
Popularly known for verses dropped on the Da Grin “C.E.O” album, and DJ Jimmy Jatt “The Definition Album” not forgetting Gino’s “Pain Plus Work” this is his first body of work since the free “Unmixed Mixtape” was released and that was just a compilation of various tracks recorded over time.
“Ripple Effect” is the first single off the forthcoming project “No Cap” extended play. It serves as a worthy comeback, this is a conscious hip-hop song with a serious message on the brutality and corruption in the Nigerian Police force, painting a perfect mental picture on the ills and previews of the police in the society. This is another step in the right direction for the #EndSARS movement.

LYRICS
[Dark Poet]
Freak in the front, back seat looking disordered
Just left the studio still hyped about what I recorded
Missed calls from fam, blowing trees from Amsterdam with the ma’am
Damn! a niqqa sorted
She say she want some Hennessy Dammnn a niqqa bought it
She say she wanna make a movie and yea I might record it cause
She took a bottle to the head and half the drink gone
Toll man sleeping in the booth so I hit the horn
He woke up, still sleeping acting kinda slow
I gave him 500 like “keep the change I Gotta go
Driving slow as I try to roll the next blunt
Thats when shorty poke me like “stop look, check point
Oh shit! play it smooth like a fun guy
Roll down the windows as I try to get unhigh
Stepping on the roach just hoping the blunt die
Still see the cops coming close through one eye
I’m thinking I should do 0 – 60 and run by
But the road blocked and Mr. cop don’t look gun shy
He said “how far anything for the weekend
Gave him a half a bottle of Hennessy just so we can
Create a distraction his reaction a smile creeping
Across his face, it’s Friday night I’m fuckin spaced
I’m trying to get this girl to my place yo can I go
He said “oga you too sabi walahi carry go carry go
[Falz]
Carry go walahi carry go
Omo luabi ni eh, mo like bo shey dami lohun
But drop a little something for gala ati coke
Poverty is poison I need to find an antidote
Hello please, is it a crime to be police
Boys dey for road since, trying to control things
Crime rate e plenty, boys no dey get peace
Ask the FG why we no dey get G’s
Why e be say my salary no dey help me
But na everyday wey my life dey for threaten
I protect everybody who protect me
If I die, tell me that they won’t forget me
I con see small small boys wey dey form status
Wan dey pose like say na them dey run Lagos
If them talk any how them go go station
They are just eating money but they don’t labour
Omo 20’something years ton wa E-class
He is either doing fraud or its rituals
But see I like you, you na real guy
Just gimme Hennessy make I feel fine
[M.I Abaga]
DP no go ever pick up when I need him
Now he got me driving to the island just to meet him
I try to be the best supporter of his music
But I know he is in the studio with a shorty drinking and they are weeding
I finish work and rush so we can have a meeting
Person wey dey rap when I was reading
Meh life is so uneven
But he’s my guy thats why I’m investing
Plus if he blow na to be him lawyer be the next thing eh
Oh God! who be this ones wey dey put road block
What police are doing is wrong but if I don’t stop
This one fit start to fire my car, see his gun is uncocked
Always stopping young boys hungry police wey won chop
Yes officer! please tell me why you stop me
All my papers dey plus photocopy
You no go fit to job me
I’m a barrister I know my right
If you no get search warrant omo free me lemme leave my life
Wait! empty bottle dey hand have you been drinking
Officer of the law and you are drunk what are you thinking
You don drink and now you are trying to extort
Whats your name again tomorrow mo’ I swear I go report you
Make I die before I give you my last card
If them no commot for force tomorrow call me bastard
Person wey give you this work himself na big fool
You dey point gun at who
Omo commot that pistol

In other news
Men of the Nigerian police force
Late last night shot and killed a suspected armed robbery gang member
Along the Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge, addressing newsmen on the scene
The Lagos state police spokesman said a locally made pistol
And about five rounds of ammunition was recovered from the attacker
Said to be a young male in his early 30’s
A sergeant Sanni Ihenacho an officer who reportedly engaged the suspects
In a fierce shoot-out, recounted that his team patrol was almost ambushed
Saved for quick reflex and experience on the part of the crack squad
According to the police, while investigations are ongoing
The force will not relent in its duty of safeguarding lives and property
Of the people of Lagos by nipping in the bud
The acts of hoodlums and criminals in the state
It also urged law-abiding citizens to go about their lawful businesses
As the force was capable of riding the state of undesirable elements
