AFRI-TUNES WEEK 46|| ACOUSTIC VERSION OF BANDANA BY FIREBOY FT ASAKE
Hello lovely people of Afri-tunes family, it's been a while for me around here and I am super glad to be here once again to express my self musically through African music.
For the 46th week, I have chosen to present an AFROBEAT song by Fireboy featuring the Nigerian spot light artist, Asake. This song has gained a lot of popularity in Nigeria and around Africa because of its strong African oriented flow. It's message is basically positivity and believing in oneself especially in the aspect of music. One of the strongest assertions in the lyrics of the song that spoke to me is " Music chose me, just know this and know peace".
The melodic strength of this song has led even various choirs to replicate it with lyrics that sooths the message they want to pass.
Since I am not very disposed to sing, I decided to play the melody of the song using my acoustic guitar, while simultaneously backing it up with the chords.
I Hope you enjoy my presentation!!!
Lowkey
All of them don dey notice
I'm not joking
All my guys dem dem know me

[Asake:]
Na the love wey I see
Na him wey give me liver

Fear nobody only Jehovah
And I thank the lord I dey go far
