assignment | Zikoko!

There’s so much new music being released that it’s hard for even the most loyal fans to wade through the trash to find the gems. That’s why we’ve created #BumpThis – a Friday series that features new songs, by and featuring Nigerians, that you absolutely need to hear.

BOJ — “Assignment”

BOJ has a reputation for being one of the most impressive featured acts in the game, consistently stealing the show with his inimitable voice and impossible-to-forget hooks.

That being said, he doesn’t get nearly enough credit for what he’s able to accomplish on a solo track. Thankfully, he’s here to remind us with his new single, “Assignment”.

Produced by GMK — the gifted producer behind a lot of Santi’s best songs — “Assignment” is a sultry love song that finds BOJ singing about a lover he can’t bear to be without.

When the lecturer pairs you with people you don’t talk to

It stings more if two or more of your friends are in the same group.

When the group leader starts collecting phone numbers

You know what is coming; endless calls and texts.

When you get the “you’ve been added to a group” WhatsApp notification

It’s happening. You flirt with the “report as spam” and “leave group” ideas, but your grades.

When you see other groups working their asses off, but your group is still figuring out the best direction

You’ve had only one brief meeting, actually. Well, that sounds like the group leader’s problem.

When the group leader schedule a meeting for the weekend

Like don’t you have a life?

When you realise that you have to cough more money than you’d planned

You are not expecting money from home until the end of the month. Hello, brokeness. Well played, universe.

When it’s almost deadline and your group is nowhere close to being done

You couldn’t care less until you remember where your CGPA stands. Or maybe it wouldn’t be much problem; you only need to get 60 out of 70 in the exam now. Leemao.

When someone you didn’t see at any of the meetings show up for the presentation

Oh wait, a few extra bucks meant you wouldn’t have dealt with any of this? Who knew?

When the teacher announces that there will be a class assignment

Why everything gotta be an assignment?
But the deadline is still far away so you take your time

You when you realise the deadline is the following day

Then the teacher extends the deadline after you spent the entire night working on it

When you’re given multiple assignments with the same deadline

You waiting for your teacher to forget about the assignment

Please Lord, let the spirit of forgetfulness come over this woman.
When that oversabi classmate decides to remind the teacher about the assignment

You’re dead to me.
When you just find out about an assignment a day to the deadline

What assignment? When? How? Why? Where?
So Google becomes your friend

The only educational tool you need.
