An Exposition On The Marlian Philosophy: 5 Solid Reasons Why The Marlian Movement, Founded By Naira Marley ( @officialnairam1), Is Highly Contagious.

👇 YET ANOTHER THREAD 👇
1. PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION WITH GOOD MUSIC

Naira Marley makes really great feel-good music. His art is executed with such subtle brilliance with lyrics so impressively efficient. Marlians psychologically associate this musical feeling with the concept of Marlianism.
2. MARLIANISM EMPOWERS THE FOLLOWER NOT THE EGO OF THE LEADER.

Most music fan-bases are driven by fanaticism and mindless passion alone. They're like some cool aide party where everyone takes turns to stroke the ego of the artiste. Marlianism mines its passion from giving (1/2)
...power to the people.

Marlianism is self-empowering, brilliantly merging collectivism with individualism. This accommodates a broad range of personality types and social groups in a way that even patriotism barely achieves in Nigeria (2/2)
3. MARLIANISM IS A SYMBOL OF LIBERATION

People are actually getting out of their skin to express themselves. And because the philosophy is so individualistic, you get to choose what to express. Marlianism offers a safe space to lose your home training.
4. MARLIANISM CONFRONTS SOCIAL HYPOCRISY

This is an essential companion of point 3 the locus of Naira Marley's music. In a system where everything seems designed to malfunction, Marlians, seek to challenge our social conception of right and wrong.
5. IT FUELS THE 'AMBITIOUS' DRIVE OF NIGERIANS

Nigeria is hard. Nigerians must work hard. Working hard needs fuel. Professing Marlianism has proven to be a great way to motivate oneself.

The other day, my partner at work completed a task early. I called him a Marlian!
The greatest force behind Marlianism is the spirit of the pioneer, who fully embodies the concept, thereby promoting it effortlessly.

Today, we have entrepreneurial marlians, God-fearing marlians, intellectual marlians, and notorious marlians.

What kind of Marlian are you?
