About Me |
|
There's a war going on outside. A force that holds its victims close with the determination of a desperate mother in dark times. In days like these, people react differently. Some are afraid, and others indecisive. Some people fall into the background, and wait for someone to lead them. And sometimes, someone curls his fingers inwards with grim resolve, points his fist to the sky, and grins at the opposition. Maybe, just maybe, this person is Wale Oyejide.Listed in as one of URB Magazines Next 100, Wale was introduced to the world as instrumentalist Science Fiction in the summer of 2003. No stranger to critical acclaim, the debut Sci-Fi album was awarded a bold 4.5/5 by URB. A near flawless attempt that was arguably only hindered by its authors youth and inexperience (he was only 22 when it was released). And so after getting one to grow on, Wale returns to boldly step out from behind the boards. This time, as a vocalist, bearing what fragments of his soul he didnt leave littered on his debut album. Entitled One Day, Everything Changed, this self-produced album is a conceptual journey from West Africas Nigeria, to the United States. Paralleling his travels from there to here in song, Wale manages to touch upon his many cultural influences without missing a beatThis might just be the first album that can double as both the soundtrack to a revolution and love-making sessions at the same time. But maybe that is indeed what has been missing. After all, every revolution is at the heart, an act of the deepest kind of love. So with that said, someone should warn the industry giants. Tell them to bar the exits and tighten their choke-holds as long as they still canbecause there's about to be a war going on. |
