Overall Meaning

The song "Headache" by Lord Paper is about a man who is frustrated with the constant accusations of cheating made by his friends to his partner. The song is primarily in Ghanaian pidgin, a creole language spoken in Ghana, and switches occasionally to Twi, another language spoken in Ghana. The opening of the song is Lord Paper questioning his friends about why they keep saying he is cheating on his partner, and he wants them to be honest with him. The chorus of the song is him pleading with his partner not to listen to others and believe in him because he is not cheating on her. Lord Paper's verses of the song are filled with metaphors that paint a picture of his current feelings.


Lord Paper's lyrics are filled with cultural references that people who don't come from Ghana might not be able to understand. He sings about wanting his partner to believe him because he is not a "kokonsa" person meaning someone who likes to meddle in people's issues. Lord Paper also sings about his partner being "fine papaye," a reference to the popular Ghanaian fruit, and talking about how he and his partner are like "pepper and salt" complementing each other.


Lord Paper's music video for the song has generated controversy due to its mature content. The video shows Lord Paper and a group of women in various intimate scenes. The video was heavily criticized in Ghana for its sexually explicit nature, with some people calling for it to be banned. However, the video also drew praise from people for its creative approach and cinematography.
