Over 200,000 views. 6.8k likes. Over 1500 comments. It’s needless to say that Country Hard is doing insanely well on the Blue Pie Youtube Channel! Since Blue Pie last covered it, it’s skyrocketed even further in attention, gaining over 10k more views! Each view represents a Nigerian standing in support of Eedris’ message. Featuring the famous Sound Sultan and Eedris’ usual amazing talent, this music video pulls no punches and still manages to stand on its own merits, and it would even if there wasn’t a deeper message involved.

“Nigerians are suffering and smiling”… and yet, “we overcome”. The lyrics send a clear message of solidarity. The people of Nigeria are in a bad time, but they are strong. They will be able to endure these crisis's and many more. This is why people come back for Eedris again and again – his social commentary expressed through catchy and smooth flow! Eedris tells it like it is, in the most elegant and smooth way that he’s capable of. Truly, he hasn’t lost his thunder since the days of Jaga Jaga, and when there’s an injustice in his beloved Nigeria, he will be there to speak on it through memorable tunes like these. THAT’S why Country Hard is on the viral train, and THAT’S why Eedris’ fans are as loyal as they are. We can only look forward to what else Eedris has in store for us, what new ground he’ll break with his future commentary. And we can only look forward to how much future success “Country Hard” is bound to see! Fasten your seatbelts, because this is taking off in ways only seen in extreme viral hits like Suga Boom Boom! Eedris Abdulkareem is an inspiring rapper with an amazing history behind him, and many classics of his such as “Jaga Jaga” and now the “Say No” series illustrate his great musical ability. He is not afraid to speak out for what he believes in and is truly a commendable artist.
