Abortion is simply a ragga artiste with a Jamaican flow. When it comes to rapping in Pidgin English Eddie Blay of Native Funk Lord, Prince Bright of Buk Bak fame are experts but Captain Planet has indeed stole that title particularly when Eddy Blay and Prince Bright are jaded. Captain Planet is really in a class of his own, his stuck on the Ga language is very interesting, he raps in Ga with so much ease and one wonders if he’s a native of Bukom or Chorkor.Abortion’s Jamaican-ragga-flow is what differentiates him from the chaff.

These duo have been together for only God knows how many years.Their debut album ‘Siklitele’ was released in 2003/2004 which was an instant success. The duo has churned out wonderful tracks like Siklitele, Odo Fitaa, HotGirl Dotcom, Contestant Number 1, and my personal favourite Koo Eduro but the duo has gradually moved to another level of rapping, call it the Nigerian-style and you won’t be far from right. 4x4 turned Nigerians? Hold it.

Currently blazing the airwaves is another danceable track from 4x4 nameWorld Trade Centre (I want to touch your body) featuring the silky voice Fresh Prince.World Trade Centre is a wonderful and nice track, but it doesn’t make sense to me why they decided to name it ‘World Trade Centre’, perhaps it should have been ‘I Want To Touch Your Body’ or something more interesting. One must be not begrudge for mistaking 4x4 as Nigerians now because with lines like

 //Oga Appietus ……, Chineke, I don dey see am 

// Go Go Big Booty Girl// Go Go Big Booty Girl//

Go Go Big Booty Girl // Go Go Big Booty Girl//

Girl I Like Dey Way You Make My Heart //// Ibi Like Say U No Say Your Body Super 

I have seen the video over and over again and I do not seem to identify with what the "World Trade Centre” mean in the song. Interesting, as one put it perhaps ‘they are referring to the buttocks of the woman, comparing it to the huge twin towers, thus the World Trade Centre, since ladies buttocks are also twins? Laughs. Let’s see how far their new Nigeria-style-of-rapping takes them.
