Examining Wande Coal’s Influence on Afropop’s Golden Age

Tucked into Adedamola, Fireboy’s latest album, the YBNL singer pays homage to Afropop ace Wande Coal with the aptly titled Wande’s Bop, surfing on a beat that looks cross-bred from Ashimapeyin and The Kick from many years ago. It is the second time the former Mohits star is getting such a reference from an artist […]

Just Peachy! – Day 59

People don’t tire of asking questions like, “What do vegans eat?” Uhm…. Most [expletive] things, [expletive]! What the [expletive] do you think? Carnivores I know eat about 5 meats: chicken, beef, maybe pork, maybe goat, maybe turkey, maybe duck. They also drink cow milk, eat chicken eggs, and a variety of animal cheeses. So now […]

Just Peachy! – Day 55

I recently found out that I was fed chicken. I didn’t know it at the time and it’s frustrating for many reasons. First of which is I tried to avoid that exact thing from happening. I’ll tell you the events that occurred in chronological order. Last week, some people at my Institute threw a fundraiser […]

Just Peachy! – Day 39

This is one of those throw-in-a-bunch-of-shit-and-hope-for-the-best recipes and my hopes for this smoothie were fulfilled. Somebody say hallelujah. Although, to be fair, it’s hard to fail when making a smoothie so maybe hold back your hallelujahs for when I figure out how to make okra soup without potash.   BANANA BLUEBERRY STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE Ingredients 1 […]

Just Peachy! – Day 39

Just Peachy! – Day 30

One month. It was my anniversary yesterday but I did not celebrate. Instead, I was in boring meetings about my future from 9:30am to 6pm. I’m lying, they weren’t boring. Adulting is terrible 8.5/10 times but on the rare occasion that things work out even better than you planned, it’s like you’re floating and fatigue […]

Theatre Review: New Nigerians

I walked into the auditorium in Arcola Theatre at about 3pm on Saturday morning not wholly knowing what to expect, and watched as Nigerians of all ages and accents filed into the hall to see the Oladipo Agboluaje drama that The Guardian described as “robust satire”.  The stage was minimally set with three empty crates of […]

Two Episodes In, Is Shade Corner Worth Watching?

So, Shade Corner. Where do I start? To put it simply: I tried to, but I don’t like it. For a week after it premiered, that was all I could say about the show because the first episode didn’t leave much of an impression on me. Granted, I should admit that I may be biased […]

Just Peachy! – Day 16

It’s weird that I’m posting a recipe because I don’t think I’ve mastered cooking to that level. Like, who am I to instruct people on matters of the kitchen? I love cooking though and I experiment so I’ll probably be sharing a lot of that. I hate it when people on food blogs ramble for […]

Just Peachy! – Day 8

I cheated. I cheated two days ago when I bought fries from a burger shop knowing damn well they use the same oil to fry their chicken. I cheated again yesterday when I ate three rice cakes after reading the warning label on the pack, which said that it may contain traces of milk. I […]
