REVIEW: One Day You Will Understand by Mr. Eazi & emPawa Africa

Picture
  1. Baby I'm Jealous - King Promise can do no wrong, especially when he and Mr. Eazi collaborate on a song. Their voices blend so sweetly on this track and the song lands like caramel topping on ice cream.
  2. I No Go Give Up on You - Over the recent years, emPawa Africa has come to mean fresjh and innovative afropop music. But this track is a bit of a letdown. I feel like I've heard this song before, you know? Maybe I just expect too much from Eazi and emPawa Africa, but this just doesn't sound fresh. They can do better.
  3. Ògógóró No Sweet Pass Pami - Now this, this is what I expect from Mr. Eazi. The kaleidoscopic melodies of this song just work. The lyrics, the beats, the vibe, it all just fits. The song makes you think, but also makes not think...at the same time. l'm still not sure I understand the simile logic that Eazi uses here but perhaps that is intentional. Either way, I'm not mad at it.
  4. Baby This Your Body Na Gòbe Fine Fine Sweet Òkpéke - Nah, just no. Trust me, you've heard this song before. At least the first 2 and a half minutes. The last 15 seconds are out of this world. But Africans like what they like, so I guess we'll see.
Also, can I just mention the conversational track titles? Like I said, fresh and innovative.
