Rashin Sanni…

Y’all remember my I shan’t gree post? If you don’t, please read about it HERE.

So something funny happened at that concert, any time I think about it, I get a good laugh and cz I am good peoples, I am sharing with y’all. Before I go into it, who knows who this is in the photo below?  

                                       Guess who?

Did you guess right?

If you did, yes, it is Tasha Cobbs Leonard. One of the Hub’s favorite gospel singers. Remember how excited I was about seeing Chandler Moore in concert and how he, on the other hand was excited to see Tasha Cobbs? 

Well, after the concert began, he eagerly waited for Tasha to be called on stage, that’s how we did not see Ms. Cobbs oh and oga kept asking;

‘Where is Tasha Cobbs na?’

‘When is Tasha Cobbs coming out?’

‘Didn’t you say she was part of this concert?’

Me: abi he’s beginning to think I deceived him about her appearance? 😲

                            No be gadus Tasha name be this?

Well, I kept assuring him that she would come out eventually and at some point, I said maybe she isn’t coming as ‘someone else’ had sang one of her songs. He wasn’t happy at all as he actually looked forward to seeing her in concert. 

Eventually, Tasha Cobbs’ name was mentioned, I wasn’t sure what they said but it sounded like she was being introduced, Hubby jumped up to look but ‘someone else’ came out to sing a Tasha song!

What is going on? Why isn’t she coming out? 

Why aren’t they telling us why Ms. Leonard isn’t here? 

What is supping?

Then ‘someone else’ sang his favorite Tasha song, he was a little heart broken but we enjoyed the concert and that is what matters. I was sure something important must have stopped her from making an appearance and I explained to him that Tim Godfrey wasn’t here also and he’s been a part of the tour. So maybe, just maybe Tasha wasn’t part of this set. 

He made peace with it and we enjoyed our time, enjoyed Tasha’s songs that were sung by ‘someone else’ and the concert came to an end. 

So on our way back to the hotel, I decided to check Tasha’s instagram to see if she posted anything about why she wasn’t in New Orleans as planned. 

Brothers and sisters, ladies and gentlemen, dudes and dudettes… guess what?

Hmmmm so the ‘someone else’ that was singing Tasha’s songs was indeed the Ms. Tasha Cobbs Leonard herself! 

What a wawoooo! 

Listen, this lady was literally right in front of us singing her lungs out and we were saying the ‘someone else’ was singing just as good as her. 

The thing is, the first photo I put up is the ‘picture’ of Tasha Cobbs I have in my head, that is the Tasha I ‘know’ but we both were looking for Tasha, the way we knew her to be; meanwhile she was living her best new life and doing what she does best.

Well, well, we both had a good laugh, tried to replay the whole concert with  this new knowledge but we missed our moment. 

So, as the saying goes  in Hausa, ‘rashin sani ya if darei duhu’. Anyone that can, should help me interpret this, pls.

There you have it! What is the moral of this story? Me sef I do not know but somehow, right now, I have more fitting proverbs in my head but I want you to feel free to drop one in the comment section. 

Ps: Next time you see  me, you might not recognize me either because… fitfam 😎 clean eating, maybe some workout... heavy on the maybe here pls.
