Review: 2Baba x HI Idibia – Oyi
SONIC EXPERIENCE!
“That time, 30 billion no go do you
That time, Edumoga no go see you
Ehen
And if I start to dey stress you
Let me know because I no want to vex you
Bottom line, na only you wey know you
The same time you go do wetin wey favour you”
2Baba starts the year with a new single, in fact, he released the song on The first of January 2019. In this song, he features his brother HI Idibia.
An interesting instrumental plays at the beginning of the song. It did well to catch our attention make us curious. Then 2Baba's intro gave us a Deja vu feeling. We were like hey, we have heard the song before even though that was the first time we were listening to the song. The Deja vu feeling was because the intro of the song sounded like another 2Baba's song, "Only".
This is another love song from 2Baba, "Oyi" meaning companion. For us, the lyrics were mostly average with no special lines or depth.
The melody of the song is decent, however, the repetitive rhythm of the song made us quickly bored of the song at some point.
The instrumentals of the song are well varied, however, as varied as it was. the beat felt quite repetitive. We felt the producer could have just added one more step to make it seem less repetitive.
This is perhaps the unveiling of a new artiste in the name HI Idibia or perhaps it was just a short fling for him in the music industry. Only time will tell.
