Davido’s A Better Time is good but not a Quality album.

A SHORT THREAD.

Man didn’t need to drop an album this year, A Good time was still doing good numbers and records! IMO, he should have just skipped this year. But he most likely felt pressured by his contemporaries and went all in.
The album is big, 219m streams in one month is crazy! No Artiste that dropped and Album this year was able to do that.

But is it great? No.

Is this Davido’s best? No.

The production? Sounds rushed.

The A&R(on features)was good, but not spectacular. They could have
taken more time in selecting the artistes to be featured on the album.

For example you have a huge song with Chris brown already, a song that peaked #3 on Billboard World digital Songs, why does he have to be on the album again?
(Nicki minaj was a great choice btw)

Still on A&R
the album is filled up with common artistes. We’ve listened to these guys many times, we know what they can do on a track already, give us something new! It’s a body of work, not a single, scout!!
And why is Mayorkun on 2 songs?

That’s why I like the fact that
Sho Madjozi was on the album, but that’s not enough if you ask me.

Secondly, as far as they’re a lot of

Hits/bangers on the album, Something fishy, The best, very special etc (see ehn, when clubs resume, we go dance tiree!!) the album can’t fit into other Nigerian markets.
You don’t you expect deep Alte listeners to fw this album.

Soul listeners won’t even play it twice.

But you can’t deny the fact that Davido has mastered the act of making hits. He never misses!

In the whole NGN industry, ONLY Olamide can go H2H with Davido when it comes to hit
songs.

But when you’re putting out a body of work, the approach should be better please, not just bangers all through.

Same thing happened with Omo Baba Olowo, Son of Mercy & A Good time.

Lastly, is there any song on the Album that connotes “A better Time”?

You may choose to
ignore, but you can’t deny that what sells an album more are the references that lead back to the concept of the album itself.

ABT has none.

I mean, your son is on the cover art, and not a single song leads back to him or you having a Male child.

Does it mean you’re just
using the little boy for PR (so people can go “OMG he’s so cute, lemme listen to the album”)?

You don’t have to do it, but if you’re putting it out for people to see, you should be able to offer something that relays the message you’re passing with the concept of your album.

Pott found an association between exposure to soot and a high incidence of scrotal skin cancer in chimney sweeps. This cancer is now known as Pott's or chimney sweep cancer.

Coal contains trace amounts of naturally-occurring radioactive elements. The process of burning coal at coal-fired power plants, called combustion, creates wastes that contain small amounts of naturally-occurring radioactive material (NORM).

Fly ash particles (a major component of coal ash) can become lodged in the deepest part of your lungs, where they trigger asthma, inflammation and immunological reactions.

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.


In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.

In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.

This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.

In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
