The beat for Push 2 Start is a refixed version of Ahomka Womu by VIP, an old Ghanaian hip-life song. The person that produced it is a Ghanaian. It is an African song. Period.

Not their fault. That’s literally what the French wanted. Unlike the British who emphasized that no matter how many years we stay amongst them, we’ll never be like them, France literally brainwashed their colonial subjects. They hate everything about themselves and idolize French culture, the French language, and whiteness. There’s no hyphenated identity in France. If you are born there, you are French. Which is why you’ll find a lot of them whitening their bloodline in two generations or less. They “don’t see colour” just the French language. That’s their soft power, the French language.

all Black ppl should be cautious when claiming that a group or groups of Black ppl "stole culture" from other Black ppl bc it can get real ahistorical and fascistic when u really sit down and unpack the claims
It’s not made up. There are Black Frenchmen. That is the colonial legacy France left behind. They wanted their language, ideologies, and “culture” to spread through their colonial subjects. Hence why there are no hyphenated identities in francophone cultures. You are either one or the other. But since a child born in Paris to Malian immigrants will never be seen as a solely French individual, they will be considered Black Frenchman.
There are more French speakers on the African continent and in some islands in the Caribbean than there are white Frenchman. That is what they wanted. For their language and ideologies to spread through assimilation. That is why majority of francophone kids end up participating in blanchissement too. They “don’t see colour”, they just say “you speak French, I speak French, let’s get married”. It’s only a problem when you reach the MENA region and it’s a Malian man marrying a Moroccan chick, lmao. All of a sudden they’re all about preserving culture. A little reading would let you know this. 🤓

🍇 DNA btw
Also that percentage is exaggerated
Plenty of West and Central Africans are NATURALLY LIGHT-SKINNED and BROWN-SKINNED
My mother is 89% Sub-Saharan African, and 100% African-American.
Plus on average we have less Eurasian DNA than some indigenous African groups.

The first time I came to Ghana was in 1995. I was 5 years old and I stayed at a hotel in Dzorwulu that no longer exists called Secaps Hotel.
It's been 31 years in and out of Ghana since then and I now even have a Ghanaian passport. In all this time, "Ghanaians hate Nigerians" has been such a popular internet phenomenon, but I have never seen it in real life. I don waka this country from Elubo to Takoradi. I've been to more places in Ghana than most Ghanaians, and the fact that I am Nigerian has never at any point put me in danger or ruined anything for me.
The closest thing to discrimination that has ever happened to me was one time in 2023 when I was in Accra for a few weeks and I needed to rent a car, but the rental agency I found on Jiji wouldn't rent to me because the identity document I submitted was Nigerian. And even then, I simply moved on to the next agency and I rented a car immediately 🤷🏿♂️
Some people are spending a lot of energy trying to force one weird beef that does not exist in real life. The other day I went to Madina market to fix my phone screen and I literally could not distinguish between "Nigerian" and "Ghanaian" because those guys all speak this mix of Igbo and Twi and you legit cannot tell who is who until they speak English and you hear their accent.
"Nigeria vs Ghana" is a very interesting internet phenomenon, and I'd like to witness it in real life one day. It's been 3 decades and I'm still looking for it 🤷🏿♂️
And another thing, @DavidHundeyin has made me (us) aware of the West's plan to divide Africans and turns us against each other. Because this sudden noise about Ghanians hating Nigerians and Nigerians hating Ghanians is news to me.
