Description: | This is a hate song, kicked off with an insult, as in: “There is another filthy black girl I found seated on a mortar.” Not only does the singer hate the ugliness of the girl, but the girl herself has broken the norms of courtship by initiating the talk to the man. This action solicits the question, “How dare you ambush me with a word before I open my mouth?” Then the insult: totaboloc, which is actually an artiste (Bol)’s idiolect for an idiot or idiocy. The girl insists on greeting, address the rude singer, “my guest”, but the man insists on bad answers to polite request like, “First greet me, my guest,” “Do I accept (meaning love) you? Totaboloc!” retorts the man. Here, Bol reflects how far gender balance (women emancipation) has to go in this paternal culture. | |
