If you're a fan of the song Nwa Baby Ashawo by Flavour, then the first thing you probably know is that you're not peculiar. The song has taken Africans by storm, and is receiving massive airplay in clubs and radio stations across most of the cities I have visited in East Africa.

And why can't we seem to get away from it? Well, the first clue really lies in the lyrics. Sample them below and tell me what you think...
