Our Take

Tunji Oyelana, the Nigerian funk maestro we never knew we needed. This retrospective collection, spanning from 1966 to 1979, is a wild ride through Oyelana's musical evolution. From the opening track, you can't help but be sucked in by his infectious rhythms and powerful vocals. This man can sing, dance, and charm the pants off anyone in a five-mile radius. His music is a vibrant blend of traditional Nigerian sounds with a funky, psychedelic twist. It's like Fela Kuti meets James Brown meets a splash of Afrobeat magic. The energy on this album is electric, with each track building to a frenzied crescendo that leaves you breathless and wanting more. You can practically feel the sweat dripping down Oyelana's face as he belts out each lyric with gusto. The standout tracks on this album include "Omonike," a groovy banger that will have you shaking your hips uncontrollably, and "Iwo Ko Lo Dami," a soulful ballad that showcases Oyelana's softer side. Overall, Tunji Oyelana's Nigerian Retrospective 1966-79 is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music. So grab your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let Oyelana take you on a journey through his funky, soulful world. You won't be disappointed.
