You need to see my music playlist, it’s what some people will call ‘unfeminine taste in music’. He loves music a lot that he basically influenced my music life unintentionally! Lest I forget, my dad loves D’banj especially that ‘Mobolowo won’ track but right now, his reigning hit single is Olamide’s ‘Melo melo’. You need to feel the jam in the car whenever he plays it! Oh mine! at times, it’s on repeat sef.
I love reggae, jazz, soul, R n B, rock, oldies and I do a little bit of contemporaries hiphop, not really my thing! He’s not ready to be an old school anytime soon I tell you.īack to me, growing up with him made me love certain genres of music some guys would find intriguing when they hear a lady sing or whistle to it. So I grew up listening to Bob Marley there’s no track I can’t sing word for word! Lucky Dube, Kool n the gangs, Dolly Parton, Jim Reeves, Kenny Rogers, Fela Anikulapo Kuti and a whole lots of others. It’s a classic rock that I love so much it’s that kind of song that you just want to swing your body to, move your waist a little slower, just shake the body kind of rhythm – in short, this song just needs a little salsa on a slower tempo you get what I am saying *winks* I discovered that recently, I have been jamming this song a whole lot. The song is no other than ‘Baby Girl’ by Nel Oliver a Beninese musician. Often times, I’ve found myself swinging my 24 inches waist to this song in front of the mirror e no easy to get small waist I tell you. This song gives me goose pimples whenever I listen to it. The lyrics of the song I’m gonna give you FOC! I’m that nice. It’s in French, English, Yoruba and Gun (Gun is a Benin Language). That reminds me of my trip to Benin Republic last year Ogun State is kinda a little closer to that area.
The combination of these languages in one song makes it very unique and amazing. It’s a reflection of a father’s prayers for his daughter who is about to get married.
