Our Take

GILI YALO's self-titled album is a delightful blend of East African rhythms and Western pop sensibilities. From the moment the opening track hits your ears, you can't help but be swept away by YALO's infectious energy and charisma. It's like a party in your headphones, and everyone's invited.

YALO's vocals are soulful and smooth, effortlessly gliding over the intricate percussion and funky bass lines. The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument shining through in all its glory. It's clear that a lot of care and attention went into crafting the perfect sonic landscape for YALO's hypnotic voice to soar.

Tracks like "Tew U Tew" and "Selam" will have you dancing around your living room, while slower ballads like "Adwa" will have you reaching for a tissue. This album is a journey, taking you from the bustling streets of Addis Ababa to the sultry nightclubs of London.

Overall, GILI YALO's debut album is a triumph. It's fun, funky, and full of heart. If you're looking for something fresh and exciting to add to your music collection, look no further than GILI YALO. This is an artist to watch, and we can't wait to see what he does next.
