Summer is upon us and while the world is slowly opening back up, musicians are releasing music to soundtrack months of missed raves. However, for Olayinka Ehi, love, which is a recurring subject in her songs, forms the core of her Mannywellz assisted latest, Someone Else, a midtempo ode to unrequited love.
As with her sultry but vibrant persona, Ehi somehow escapes the dreariness of heartbreak on the Jess Alordiah produced single. She somehow sacrifices her feelings for bounce and allure, creating an allowance for her listeners to still enjoy the buzz about town with silky vocals that match the percussion-powered instrumental. Mannywellz comes in at the latter part of the single with an attitude that’s akin to Ehi’s.
Someone Else might not be your run-of-the-mill summer sound, but with its bounce and relatability, it makes room for immersion in its own unique way.
