Album Review: Ayo

Happy Sunday guys!

Those who have been around me the past few weeks will know that I am obsessed with Wizkid’s new album, Ayo.

Taken from NotJustOk

About a year ago, I had a conversation with a friend of mine about Wizkid’s talent. At that point I was not convinced of it, because even though he brought out tune after tune, it was full of the same things in relation to his beat, sound, and famous ability to manipulate a track. However Ayo has shown me how wrong I was.

What I love most about the album is that it musically diverse. You can hear that Wizkid has been influenced by Jazz and Soul with tracks like: 

‘In Love’ feat Seyi Shay 


and 
‘One Question’ feat Yemi Sax (so good).  


It also contains the well-known tracks, ‘Jaiye Jaiye,’ ‘Show You the Money,’ ‘Caro,’ and ‘On Top Your Matter.’ When listening, you’ll be taken aback by how emotional and honest he is on the album too with songs like:
‘Joy’


and 
‘Ojuelegba.’



His album is worth a listen and certainly a buy. I bought it with blind faith and I was not disappointed.

 I am so excited to see where Wizkid goes from here.
