Kcee may be known for the little or no effort he puts into his music, looking at his songwriting elements and all, but it won’t be denied that the feeling most people get from ingesting the lyrics of a number of his songs is catchy and gets the listener singing along.

The Fivestar music act, a former group member of defunct Hip hop group KC Presh is a year older today. In celebrating this, Pulse presents five songs from the singer that has earned him admiration from many music faithfuls.

We start with arguably his most popular record ‘Limpopo’ produced by Del B.  This swept the country by storm as it gradually began to grow on people and stuck good, becoming the biggest pop song at that time. Everyone sang along to the song. Kcee was able to come up with a phrase ‘’Limpopo’’ and turned it to gold. That song won him his endorsement with Telecoms giants MTN.

“Park baby o pull over, hmmmm, baby o pull over” was the hook that caught on with the Nigerian music community, thanks chiefly to Wizkid’s vocals.  Kcee used a societal norm associated with the Nigerian police and made it out to a power single, which every demographic, old and young enjoyed.

Kcee tapped into the recession plaguing Nigeria, and looked on the bright side of the situation with his music, assuming the role of the Bureau de change men, going on about his braggadocious lifestyle on the record. Followers of Kcee vibed to this nonetheless. Kcee stayed true to the catchy hooks and rhythm.

‘Girl I just want to see your face, your face, I want to see your fine face…” Kcee rode on the love wave, and rode it well on this song, with his simple lyrics.

“Stand by you, oh stand by you, I’ll stand by you, uh-oh oh I’ll stand by you, stand by you”. It doesn’t get any catchier than this. Del B cooked up a fine Naija/Afrobeat version of  Ben E. King’s 1961 classic, 'Stand By Me'.
