This is Oscar's craft. Simi's voice is then layered across it as she sings effortlessly, shifting from a call and response of "Joromi, Joromi" into a stretched melody of "I Want You To Love Me, Why You No Dey Call Me". The interesting call and response makes the song very engaging and nicely punctuates the remaining body of the song. Unsurprisingly, the first two utterances of 'Joromi' as she kicks off, reminds of Sir Victor Uwaifo's "Joromi". Not to mistake it for a sample, however if you think it, see it as a unique female rendition. At her core, on "Joromi", Simi is distinct from what you'll get from the human living treasure, Sir victor. She flexes her inimitable flamboyance on "Joromi", sitting right in the middle of being timeless and trendy, reminding of a movie you may have watched on African Magic -positivity intended- back in the days. It all plays like a conversation. Written by Thenativemag.com See less
