BNXN Bad Since ’97 EP Review
Here are four takeaways from BNXN’s “Bad Since ’97 EP
- BNXN’s Bad Since ’97 is lyrically applauding. The songwriting shows that much effort was put into it to make it an authentic body of work
- The Delivery on this EP dwindles and pick up. It could have been so much better if the delivery helped the tracks hit more than they did
- The Track Sequencing of Bad Since ’97 was not done as properly as it should have been done.
- BNXN’s Bad Since ’97 has a good replay value and will spend a long, long time on charts
Bad Since ’97 Review
“Bad Since ‘97” Track is the EP opener and it’s actually really good. The delivery needs work, but lyrically, the track sounds really amazing.
It is a quick summary of how BNXN describes himself as a musical genius and that he is here to take his place.
It is really good as it sets the tone for Bad Since ’97 itself.
BNXN Bad Since ’97 EP Review shows that “Bad Man Wicked” is almost too synonymous with Bad Since ’97 because apart from the fact that the mixing and production makes the songs sound identical, the fact that we just listened to “Bad Since ‘97” makes the song theme clash.

Note on the track sequencing here, Bad Man Wicked should not have come as number 2 track immediately after Bad Since ’97.
“Many Ways” Featuring Wizkid lacks that staunch delivery needed to make this song a hit.
The song has a sultry “having sex-song” vibe, but it should have been made to sound sexier than it was.
However, that side, “Many Ways’ remain a love/bedroom track. Meanwhile, it is not the best track on Bad Since 97’ EP
“Kenkele” is a single off this album and we are here for it. The delivery is on point, the song sounds so original and is reminiscent of that really contemporary African sound that blends into that Afro vibe that we really want to listen to.
No wonder it is a hit track. Both BNXN and Wande Coal did their best. Arguably, it has one of the best lyrics and it is still the most replayable song so far on Bad Since 97’ Ep. The chorus is also really catchy.
Lastly, BNXN Bad Since ’97 EP Review indicates that In My Mind is such a beautiful song that may get ignored by fans on this EP. It is such an Afro-classic RNB song that makes Bad Since ’97 EP sound so holistic.
It has that amazing percussion and comparison that makes the song peaks at Relatability.
Then comes Modupe, Olamide really made this song a jam. It has slow beats and he still ran with it to make it an amazing song. Modupe comes after Kenkele and “In My Mind” in terms of replay value.
As an EP closer, Loose Emotions is not bad, it has good lyrics, but the delivery is disturbing. This track would have been a hit if it had been well delivered.
But then, the idea may be that it wasn’t made to be a hit song and therefore much was not put into it
