The repeated refrain of "burn up, turn up aye" sets the tone for a high-energy and hedonistic celebration. The singer mentions feeling like they are on drugs, getting drunk, and living without limits, emphasizing the intense and excessive nature of the party they are experiencing.


The lyrics convey a sense of defiance and refusal to "turn down the turn-up," indicating a commitment to fully embracing the party lifestyle, even at the risk of harm to their body and health, as symbolized by the references to their liver getting "burnt up." Despite the potential consequences, the singer is determined to continue the festivities, with mentions of smoking, drinking, and feeling euphoric from the buzz of the party.


The second verse delves deeper into the singer's mindset, expressing a desire to escape reality through partying and indulging in various vices. There is a sense of disillusionment and a need for temporary relief from the struggles and challenges of life, as indicated by the references to seeking paradise, avoiding returning to hell, and living in the moment without concern for the future.

I think I'm going to view this video everyday, every month, in the nextย few years until it hits the 1 million mark. Never heard of Jimmy Jat until now, but boy he's got the most cultivated sound out of Nigeria at the moment.

@mrdave1413

What's so lovely about this video was Jimmy Jat's composure, sitting on that throne gazing at Flavor as he singing along for him, as he gets up majestically to dance to the music. Dope!
