@NAIJACONTROL So what has been your best work so far

Slay: lol, my best is yet 2 come, got lotta new stuff way better than my previous releases but so far if I have to chose from my recent releases I'll go for the fan's favorite #BAD which recorded over 80,000 downloads in the first week of its release

@NAIJACONTROL 80, 000 is a huge number! That's a standard
@NAIJACONTROL What do you think makes bad unique
