Which Democracy?

A song made by Adegboyega Adelaja

My people, I greet everybody

I say make una come near Make una listen well-well Today na Democracy Day

Dem don wear fine agbada Dem don carry long convoy Dem don print poster

Put banner everywhere

Dem don gather for Abuja

Dem don begin dem speech

But I wan ask small question

Which democracy? Eh?

I say which democracy?

Democracy no be grammar Democracy no be public holiday.

Democracy no be parade Democracy no be speech from air-conditioned office

Democracy na food for table

Yeah Yeah

Democracy na light for house

Yeah Yeah

Democracy na work for young people

Yeah Yeah

Democracy na security for village

Yeah Yeah

Democracy na justice for poor man and rich

Yeah Yeah

If all these things never dey wetin be this thing wey dem dey celebrate?

Politicians carry old wine put for new bottle

Military man remove khaki wear agbada

General become civilian

Oppressor become democrat overnight

Thief become statesman

And everybody begin clap

Bad government fit steal your future every day.

Every abandoned school.

Every hospital without medicine.

Every road wey kill travellers.

Every village wey bandits control.

Every graduate wey no fit find work.

Na evidence of stolen future.

My people, another thing wey dey worry me.

Too many Nigerians don begin worship politicians.

You carry politician picture for chest.

You kill your brother because of politician.

You kill your neighbour because of politician.

The people dey quarrel.

The politicians dey enjoy.

Who be the fool? Eh?

Who be the fool?

Citizen no suppose be zombie.

Citizen suppose ask question.

Citizen suppose challenge power.

Citizen suppose hold government accountable.

That na democracy.

No sell your future for rice.

No sell your conscience for small money.

My people, shine your eyes.

Democracy no be event.

Democracy na struggle.

And the struggle continues

Aluta continua!

Music is the weapon.

❓
Common questions
How will my song appear on Spotify? ▼
Songs are released under the Afrobits label — the artist credit reads "Afrobits feat. <your songwriter name>" on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music and every other platform. This lets us handle the platform relationships, rights paperwork and payouts on your behalf, while you get full songwriter credit on every release.
How are royalties split? ▼
Streaming royalties are split 85% to you, 15% to Afrobits. Our 15% covers the distribution infrastructure, royalty collection across 150+ platforms, rights administration and payout handling. Your 85% songwriter share comes to you each payout cycle once platforms report their streams (typically every 1–2 months).
How much do I earn per stream? ▼
Each platform pays a different per-stream rate — Spotify pays roughly $0.003–$0.005, Apple Music around $0.01, YouTube Music about $0.002. Earnings depend on listener country, subscription type and how often your song is played. Your 85% share is calculated on the gross streaming revenue, with no cap — the more plays, the more you earn.
When and how do I get paid? ▼
Streaming platforms report royalties to us about 2–3 months after the streams happen. We then pay your 85% share out by bank transfer, PayPal or mobile money once you cross a $10 minimum balance. Statements ship by email each payout cycle so you can see exactly what each platform paid and how the split was applied.
Who owns the song — me or Afrobits? ▼
You keep songwriter ownership. Songs are released under the Afrobits label as "Afrobits feat. <your name>", and Afrobits acts as the distributor on the recording — that's what enables our 85/15 split and the platform delivery. The songwriter credit and your moral rights to the work stay with you, and you can request a takedown by emailing hello@afrobits.ai.
What does the annual subscription cover? ▼
Your annual subscription creates a dedicated artist profile for you and distributes your first song to 150+ platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon, Deezer, Tidal & more). Each additional song you upload after that costs just in your local currency — no cap on how many you add. The 15% royalty share is separate — that covers ongoing rights admin, royalty collection and payout handling. If you cancel, your songs are taken down at the end of the period and you keep every payout earned up to then.
How long until my song is live? ▼
Most platforms publish within 1–3 weeks of submission. Spotify and Apple Music are usually fastest (a few days), while smaller platforms can take longer. We email you the moment each major platform confirms your song is live.
How does income from TikTok / Reels work? ▼
With the Social Media Pack, your song lands inside TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and Facebook music libraries. Every time a creator picks your song for a video, you earn a share of the platform's creator-music pool. Payouts work the same way as streaming — they show up in your distributor account each month.
Why do I need my real legal name? ▼
Streaming platforms require a real legal songwriter name so royalty collection societies can pay you. Your artist name (the name fans see on Spotify) can be anything — only the songwriter credit needs to match your ID. Without it your song will be rejected at submission.
Can I cancel any time? ▼
Yes. Reply cancel distribution on WhatsApp or email hello@afrobits.ai any time. Your song stays live until the end of the paid period, then it's taken down from streaming platforms. You keep every royalty earned up to that point.
Still have questions? ▼
Send us a message on WhatsApp or email hello@afrobits.ai — we usually reply within a few hours.
