Legendary singer, 2Baba linked up with rapper, Falz TheBahdGuy to deliver this conscious song titled “Rise Up“, Produced by Cobhams.
Generally considered Nigeria’s greatest pop act of all time, Innocent Ujah Idibia aka 2face now known as 2baba is credited with being one of the key figures in the rise to global prominence of what has been described as the sound of 21st century Africa. His distinctive blend of reggae, R&B and traditional African musical influences creates a vibe that is contemporary and universal while maintaining a clear African identity.

Nigerian rapper Falz became known for his distinctive style of underscoring skilful rhyming with comedic flair. He broke through early in his career with the single “Marry Me” from his 2014 album Wazup Guy and drew international attention in 2018 with “This Is Nigeria,” a reworking of Childish Gambino’s “This Is America,” with new lyrics addressing the corruption in his country.
Today July 23, 2021, Extra Special music legend 2Baba and Honourable Falz decide to bless music fans with a joint-record – “Rise Up“.

Lyric Video
As gbege dey happen around the world
And the news wey full for air
Dey make liver dey fail you
Dey make spirit dey dampen
So, ma guys na your eyes you go sharpen
You need to take care of yourself
Cos the curve go flatten
Better go dey start to dey happen
Know say gbege go come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We must to rise up again, eh
Gbege must come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We must to rise up again, eh
Yawa dey today but hey morrow go better
Gbege wey dey now e no go kill us never
I collect 1 Trophy make I take forget am
2 bottles with 2Baba we dey for gether
Make I keep am short o mi o fe soro ju
Everybody know say all my people dem dey colorful
When the gbege jam us for body we lost 1 or 2
And the matter hook us for neck we no no what to do
Stop there, turn round you go see action
Where man fall down, he go still rise up
Weytin no kill man na weytin make him sharp nah
And you no fit die for your film na you be actor
You go wide the chest like you be man o’ war
You go wipe the dirt like you be janitor
You recharge the energy and start afresh
Weather you dey Budapest, Lagos city, Marrakesh
As gbege dey happen around the world
And the news wey full for air
Dey make liver dey fail you
Dey make spirit dey dampen
So, ma guys na your eyes you go sharpen
You need to take care of yourself
Cos the curve go flatten
Better go dey start to dey happen
Know say gbege go come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We must to rise up again, eh
Gbege must come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We must to rise up again, eh
The pepper go still rest, e go still rest ceteris paribus
Better go still come wey flexing go dey unanimous
All of my people turn, dey turn up till maximum
Bad water wey dey flow come no fit carry us
As I dey talk am so n gbo, sho gba mi gbo
All the kwanta wey you think say kole pari mo
Sofun Tolani, Chidera pelu Amina
Pe adura wa tigba ka ma sha mi mo
To the heroes we lost, we no go forget
Heaven prepare the medal wey dem go collect
Our black panther don unite with black mamba
When the time come, we go still jam for wakanda
When you get up help us, halla captain chika
And God bless the souls of Uwa and Tina
The time tough but no matter how e rough
Bad water wey dey flow come e no fit carry us
As gbege dey happen around the world
And the news wey full for air
Dey make liver dey fail you
Dey make spirit dey dampen
So, ma guys na your eyes you go sharpen
You need to take care of yourself
Cos the curve go flatten
Better go dey start to dey happen
Know say gbege go come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We must to rise up again, eh
Gbege must come and go
Ebelebe, we suppose to jump am o
Ebelebe, you suppose to know say
We go rise up again

The same thing dey happen inside inna every land

E just wan test every man
