Evolution to Nigerian-Canadian singer, TOBi means regurgitating revamped versions of beautiful bodies of works which is now standard practice for the smooth-voiced singer. On an eighteen track project which he calls Still+, he shifts the goal post from his thirteen-track debut of the same name with an addition of five brilliant tracks that cushion the original project while highlighting Tobi’s off-kilter but passionate and unique approach to music.
Introduced by the The Game assisted City Blues, Still+ is a jazzy iteration of TOBi ‘s riotous and colorful feelings brought to life by passionate lyrics, solid mind-altering flows and even more spirited instrumentals that point to years of experience releasing great music, a taste for exquisite sounds and real refined talent.
Rap, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Blues, RnB; in its raw and moody form are all genres that make an appearance on this stellar extension of Still+. They’re manifested in emotion and bass-heavy tracks like 24 Toronto Remix that receives life from a Hip-Hop and Blues hybrid instrumental, the Kemba assisted sweet but somehow sour 180 Remix heavy on Pop, hustle fueled Paid and a personal favorite, Holiday; a brilliant mix of colorful sounds.
Still+ is a continuation of TOBi ‘s noteworthy brilliant streak and though its tracks are scattered across genres and narratives, their core intent points to his multifarious accolade deserving brand.
