Mr. Withers, a three-time Grammy winner. According to The Association Press,  his family said he died of a heart  complication. “We are devastated by the loss of our beloved, devoted husband and father,” the family’s statement said. “A solitary man with a heart driven to connect to the world at large, with his poetry and music, he spoke honestly to people and connected them to each other.” After his de facto retirement from recording , he released his last album in 1985, after many battles with music industry executives. Mr. Withers entered the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999 and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame  in 2015 by Stevie Wonder.

Verse 1] Again, you're gone Off on a different path than mine I'm left behind Wondering if I should follow You had to go And, of course, it's always fine I probably could catch up with you tomorrow [Pre-Chorus] But is this what it feels like To be growing apart? When did I become the one Who's always chasing your heart? [Chorus] Now I turn around and find I am lost in the woods North is south, right is left When you're gone I'm the one who sees you home But now I'm lost in the woods And I don't know what path you are on I'm lost in the woods [Verse 2] Up 'til now The next step was a question of how I never thought it was a question of whether Who am I, if I'm not your guy? Where am I, if we're not together Forever? [Chorus] Now I know you're my true north 'Cause I am lost in the woods Up is down, day is night When you're not there Oh, you're my only landmark So I'm lost in the woods...

What is up with Nigerian music artists. Lately, Nigerian artists have been comparing women to football players who are in various football clubs. Artists like Davido, Wizkid, Lynxx compared women to Messi, Ronaldino, David Beckham, Obafemi Martins,Drogba and so on. Does it mean that there are no other great women to use in their comparisons? Don't get me wrong, these footballers are great and some of them are handsome but I don't think a girl would like to here her guy say "You are as beautiful as David Beckham". Even if she is a "player". I think there are hot women players in the world that can fill in those spots. Just saying... hmm
