Lagbaja set to drop two new singles

Lagbaja is set to hit the airwaves with new works. This time he is dropping two new singles.

Nothing For You“, “Dream Come True” and “Never Far Away” are three Lagbaja love songs that became massive hits. “Did I” from his most recent album, took his love stories to another level with a Spanish-English duet. This time his love song brings a different dimension as he pleads, “Knock Knock Knock, open your heart, love wants to enter”. Also a duet, Lagbaja is the repentant lover in this continuation of his love saga.

Can two words make a comprehensible sentence? Can a meaningful conversation be carried out with short bursts of two words? You might think that unlikely, but wait until you hear Lagbaja‘s creativity in motion on the track “Knock Knock Knock”. It is most interesting how the couple is able to carry out complete and meaningful conversations mostly in two-word sentences. Always one to pioneer fresh concepts, Lagbaja’s new mid tempo track does not disappoint. Grooving right from the start with a subtle touch of his ever present talking drums, the song eventually rises into a climax as the talking drums pound lose when the chorus begins to plead “Don’t shut your heart to love”.

His other single slated for simultaneous release is an even bolder concept. Lagbaja continues his quest of seeing African grooves propel music from all over the world. He incessantly preaches that African grooves deserve to be globally acclaimed since Africa is the fundamental root of rhythms and grooves. Applying afrobeat and africano grooves to a Marley song, this track showcases that concept very well. Surely Lagbaja’s dream of hearing African rhythms behind songs from other continents is well on its way to becoming reality.

Put Bob Marley on the stove, add Fela and let Lagbaja be the chef. How sweet and tasty would that be? Well, you are in for a great treat as Lagbaja applies Fela’s style as well as his own Africano grooves to Bob Marley’s Redemption Song. He conjoins Fela and Bob Marley like two inseparable twin brothers. In fact, he insists that they are spiritually connected twin brothers who fought for the same purpose although with different methods. Lagbaja has always reiterated that these two have been major influences on his art. He pays homage to them with this song. This he christens “2 African Soldiers”. Redemption Song (2 African Soldiers) is definitely destined to become another Lagbaja classic. Attention! Salute two great African soldiers. Or should we say 3 great African soldiers?
