Hi @blessedlife. I'm glad to be part of this amazing movement, sharing and disclosing a love song that reminds me of Nigeria. Qing Madi is her name. At age of 18, she sang a song that became popular in tiktok, and today, the song American Love has gained massive attraction all over the universe.
Where was she born?
Qing Madi was born in Benin city, Nigeria.
Her expression in the song:
Qing Madi uses her lyrics to expose to Africans the height of love expressed by Nigerian people, exposing the complexities in American culture. She revealed that to love in America is much more different when compared to one in Nigeria. And from her expression, there's an imported notion, signifying that Nigeria is the most beautifully designed love-pond.
In her Instagram page, she wrote: “American love was given to me by my mother to tell the world that there's nowhere like Nigeria”.
If I can remember, someone sang a song similar to this, though not about love but the nation itself.
Why did she name it ‘American love?’.
Because she wanted other culture to build their own culture and stop depending from others. Since the one they are looking up to are not much fantastic.
Short lyrics of the song:
“Travelled 'round the world, I no cast
But if I climb the train, e don pass you
Traveled 'round the world, now I found you
And if I catch the plane, e don catch
And I hope you gon' fly away today, ajé
Yeah, I hope you gon' fly away today, ajé
Hmm, but you know say I fly
So no dey reject me, oh, I'm calling
I dey try, but you no dey get me, tí bá n kọrin
You go like fly
Allow me to spoil you with my money
You don cover my, cover my head o
Bet you never met a girl you go wife up o
And I'ma hold you down o
Bet you never met a girl you go wife up o
And I'ma hold you down o
Hold you down with no excuse
Nobody fit damn you, boy
Bet you never met a girl you go wife up o
And I'ma hold you down, oh, down o
American love
Carry you go Tokyo
Anywhere you want to go
Anywhere you want to go
And I'ma give you some, hmm, Nigerian love
Carry you go Jalingo
Anywhere you want to go
Anywhere you want to go”

NOTE: I'm not a fan of songs like this. But ever since I met this song, I've been refined materially, psychologically and notionally.
I invite @chisom77, @basil20 and @ruthjoe to participate in this music contest.
Songs like this are more inspiring to my kind. Thanks for sharing. I wish to listen
