鈥淰alentine鈥檚 is coming, Valentine鈥檚 is coming!鈥 Well, it has come and gone and we鈥檙e still here. For those of you that didn鈥檛 allow us rest with posts of your teddy bears and chocolate, we hope you鈥檙e proud of yourselves? We recently realised that some of you are still on this one week later, instead of focusing on your hustle. That doesn鈥檛 sit right with our spirit. To help you regain focus, we compiled a list of songs to remind you that the hustle is real and it鈥檚 time to jazz up.
1.
If the richest black man and a Grammy award-winning musician are still out on these streets grinding for more money, alaye, who are you? But you鈥檙e here celebrating Valentine鈥檚 even after one week? You must be a joker.
2.
You know the ginger is real every time Wizkid starts to call street names and Local Government Areas in Lagos. If you鈥檙e in doubt, look at his other songs like Ojuelegba and Surulere. No Lele reminds us that just like every other up-and-coming artist, people told Wizkid he wouldn鈥檛 come. But look at Big W today, he came! If you know what鈥檚 good for you, omo, you better draw inspiration from the man.

This song is chaotic and violent AF, but honestly, it should be the first song you listen to every morning. Even though it鈥檚 been like 500 years ago since it first dropped, our man Eedris told no lies and we鈥檙e still living through most of this shit today. Listen to it, understand that Nigeria is out to kill you, and please find a way to survive the jaga jaga by making plenty money.
4.
In this life, having a good heart and diligent work spirit is cute, but you know what鈥檚 cuter? Having funds. In Gone Far, Zinolesky reminds us that money cancels nonsense, so unless you want to face nonsense every day, we suggest you drop that lovey-lovey thing you鈥檙e still doing and get your hustle on.
5.
This is the most ajebo hustle song on this list and we blame it on how sweet Buju (or is it now BNXN) voice is. Please, can you explain why you鈥檙e resting now after you鈥檝e come so far? Do you want your village people to laugh at you? You better wake up and .
6.
The title alone is explanatory. Jazz up.

In this song, Davido introduces us to the three important Ls: Lowo, Lola and Lalafiya. They loosely translate to: 鈥淚 want to have money鈥, 鈥淚 want to be wealthy鈥 and 鈥淚 want peace of mind鈥. Notice how money is the first thing? That whole talk that money can鈥檛 buy happiness? Lies from the pits of hell. Crying in a private jet and crying in a danfo in Iyana Oworo traffic, which one do you prefer? Hm? We thought so too.
8.
Please, if you came to this life to suffer, kindly raise your hand so we can avoid you in peace. Savage was not playing on this song, and while you’re jamming to it, we advise you also listen to the lyrics and fix your hustle so you don鈥檛 leg-work your way into poverty.
