The Breakdown: "Omo Baba Olowo: The Genesis" by Davido
Davido’s debut album is often overlooked mainly because at its release time; the artiste wasn’t the most favourable with the Nigerian music audience despite his popularity. In this episode of A Music in Time, Osagie Alonge discusses Davido’s sheer brilliance and energy behind the album. Afrobeats Weekly co-host Tunde Adediran joins him.
A big nod to Dokta Frabz, who we regrettably forgot to mention in the episode. The late talented producer produced the Ice Prince-assisted single "Feel alright".
