You can’t walk from the Faculty of Education to the College of Medicine without hearing at least three different songs blasting from portable speakers. Music is the fuel that keeps UNILAG running.
Whether you need high-tempo beats to wake you up for an 8 AM class or soulful melodies for a late-night study session, the Nigerian music scene is delivering.
Here are the top 5 tracks currently dominating the airwaves (and hostel corridors) in CMUL this month.
1. The “Gingering” Track: Shallipopi – [Insert Trending Track]
You can’t escape the Pluto Presido.
- The Vibe: Pure energy. This is the song you play when you are tired of reading and need to wake your spirit up.
- Best Time to Listen: Friday evening in the hostel when the weekend mood is setting in.
2. The Emotional Support Anthem: Omah Lay – Holy Ghost
Omah Lay just understands the student struggle. His sound is melancholic but addictive.
- The Vibe: “I’m stressed, but I’m vibing.” It’s perfect for those rainy evenings in Idi-Araba when you are questioning your life choices.
- Best Time to Listen: Walking back from the library alone at night.
3. The “Clean Girl” Favorite: Ayra Starr – Commas
The celestial being herself. This track is for the girls who are balancing aesthetics with academics.
- The Vibe: Confidence. It’s for when you put on that fresh outfit and feel like the main character of the campus.
- Best Time to Listen: While getting dressed for class or a NUNSA event.
4. The Motivation Booster: Seyi Vibez – [Insert Track]
When you need to remember why you are hustling.
- The Vibe: Grit and prayer. It speaks to the street-smart side of every Lagos student.
- Best Time to Listen: Monday morning, 6:00 AM.
5. The Love Song: Johnny Drille – [Insert Track]
For the hopeless romantics (see our previous post on “CMUL Love”).
- The Vibe: Soft, acoustic, and dreamy.
- Best Time to Listen: When you are missing that special someone (or just missing home food).
