There was a period when playful double meaning ruled Nigerian pop, and The D by Dr Sid fits neatly into that moment. The song leans heavily into humor and suggestive wordplay, using repetition and catchy phrasing to spark curiosity without ever spelling things out directly. Dr Sid approaches the record with a light-hearted confidence, fully aware that the fun lies in how listeners interpret the message.
Though the song polarized listeners, it succeeded in keeping Dr Sid at the center of pop culture conversations, which in itself was a measure of success at the time.
