Teni opens up on why Aliko dangote and Femi Otedola was mentioned in her songs

Teni Apata, popularly known as Teni the entertainer, is one singer who often mentions the names of prominent people in her songs.

In the past, Teni had mentioned the names of business tycoons such as Aliko Dangote and Femi Otedola in her songs, which made the songs more popular and acceptable.

In an encounter with Sunday Scoop, the award-winning singer explained why she often called people’s names in her music. “I grew up being exposed to a lot of culture and one essential part of that is praise-singing people. I decided to incorporate that practice into my songs so that people could relate more with them,” she said.

Contrary to what many believe that Teni’s Billionaire EP is all about the brazen pursuit of money, the plump singer said the title song and EP were centred on encouraging people to live their best lives. She stated, “This project basically encourages people to lead their best lives, achieve their dreams and generally enjoy what life has to offer. No doubt, life has its challenges, but sometimes, one just needs to take a break and enjoy it.”

On the misconceptions people have about her, the cheerful singer said, “I don’t really know the misconceptions that people have about me but I try to be myself at all times. Being real is the best thing one can do in this world.”

Joke

On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years." The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?" And God saw it was good. On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span." The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?" And God, again saw it was good. On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years." The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?" And God agreed it was good. On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years." But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?" "Okay," said God, "You asked for it." So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our family. For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren. And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone. Life has now been explained to you.

How to add backlink to blogger

If you've set up a Blogspot -- more commonly referred to as a Blogger -- blog for your business, you need to create good content and promote that content to see more traffic come to your blog. One of the ways to get more traffic is through "backlinks," which are links from someone else's blog back to yours. Change your Blogger settings to make those backlinks visible under your blog's posts, then encourage people to link back to your blog.

1. Log in to Blogger with your username and password, then click on the title of your blog from the blog list.

2. Click "Settings," then "Posts and comments." Scroll down to "Show Backlinks" and select "Show."

3. Click "Save Settings" near the top of the page. Your blog is now enabled to show backlinks, when you get them.

4. Comment on other people's sites and include the URL for your blog. You likely read blogs that have a focus similar to your own which you use for reference or to browse for fun. When you show these blog owners that you are an active member of their sites, they're more likely to visit yours -- which in turn can lead them to mention you in one of their future posts.

5. Link back to others' sites. If you want linkbacks, start out by giving some. Visit those sites with similar missions or interests, locate some good content, then refer to that content when you're blogging about a particular topic. If those bloggers have backlink notifications enabled, they'll get an alert when you backlink to them -- which may encourage them to do the same for you.

6. Create valuable content. Your blog -- and your business -- is likely focused on a niche market or a particular subject matter, which attracts a certain type of person. Try to think of ways to appeal to those people and make your content something they'd want to share with others. Create timely posts about holidays, write top-10 lists, or start a weekly feature such as the "recipe of the week" to give readers something authoritative and valuable to share with their own readers.

7. Ask directly. If you have colleagues or associates in your field, ask them up front to put a link to your site on theirs, and offer a link to their site in return. It may seem strange to go begging for a linkback, but it's not uncommon -- in fact, some people pay a lot of money to do it in another way -- it's called advertising.
