Eedris Abdulkareem returns to socially conscious music with Beg Your Papa, a politically charged release that uses direct address, satire and criticism to highlight concerns about leadership and the everyday struggles of Nigerians.
The track centres on a message to Seyi Tinubu, urging him to speak to his father, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, about the difficulties facing ordinary citizens. Eedris combines rap delivery with Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa expressions, giving the message a wider national reach.
The accompanying music video circulated online on November 2, 2026, with reports covering the release appearing the following day. The song also criticises lawmakers over taxation and raises concerns about the country’s political direction, presenting these issues through the artist’s personal commentary.
What gives the recording its character is the decision to address a national leader through a member of his family. This approach creates a direct and provocative message, while recalling the socially critical style that has been part of Eedris’s music since his earlier work, including Jaga Jaga.
Listeners interested in Nigerian hip-hop, protest music and songs that engage with public affairs will find this release particularly relevant. It invites discussion about leadership, accountability and the role musicians can play in expressing public concerns.
