Mr Agbaletu, great work you are doing. I started watching your videos like 6months back and have further gone back to watch the ones you did long before that, I repeat, you are doing a fantastic job. As regard your comment at 22mins about singer, preacher et al not practicing what they preach, my opinion is that these people actually preach/sing these words of admonition with reference to themselves… it is often in the moment of reflection about their personal experiences that the inspiration for these words of admonition come and they are trying to correct themselves as much as they are trying to guide others. Lol… I had to share this thought of mine and now I continue enjoying your work. Do have a great day.
No one can sing Orlando's style without stretching or stressing the nerves of their neck. It was only Orlando himself who did it effortlessly and without energy. That said, I appreciate all the folks who are creating music life and niche for themselves by adopting Orlando's style. I want to believe Orlando Owoh did not sing "Canary Style", he is the Canary himself! "T'owo ba wa, maa je fitamin....." May the soul if Father Before Father continue to rest in peace. Amin.
Great Interview, the guy could not remember his favourite song. New system song is on the album LOGBA LOGBA(1975) side 2, track 3, after eleiye igbo track. Part of the lyrics goes thus: ...... "mo gbe de ooo omimi eyo, mo gbe de ooo orin mi, oni were(music) ko were, awon oni were(m@dness) ko were, ere tiwa lawa nse, orin tiwa lawa nko, ko ni rewa, ko ni rewa, ko ni rewa ko ni suwa, ere wa ooo oyin momo".... "K'egbe wa ma ma ku lewe ooo, amin ase oo baba" .... "New system la tun gbe jade ooo, atun gbe de.....New system lawa n ba lo oo a de e" ....fantastic song by Chief Dr Orlando Owoh . RIP.
Shina Ade please keep it up sky is your limit, from your expressions you understand music very well. You are the new star 🌟 🌟 even late Orlando baba can't deny you, you are the latest star and talk of the town. I will only ask you to be loyal to everyone and stay away from drink and bad guys, very soon you will clamp the ladder.
You're on the right track. I think the children of baba Orlando should be happy that some more people are taking to the music line of their father . A lot of people sing like baba Ebenezer today and they are not his children. The lesson there is that it doesn't let their fathers work die just like that . Hip hop will wipe it out if care is not taken
Great Interview. The song 'Mijebi' is a very deep song and much more than that. It's on the album, AWADE(1986) side 2, part of the lyrics goes thus ........... "opo(some people) yan tire lowuro kutukutu mijebi, opo yan tie losan gangan mijebi, irole loja nta ere mi adale, ati mo p'eni la logun odun i se 'gbehin ola ... mijebi oooo" ......... "ise(agony/suffering) t'o s'omo logun odun, iya to j'omo l'ogbon osu, bi o ba p'omo a pada lehin omo mijebi, mo ti kiri titi(Searching for better life), mo ti de ile kowari, mo ti rinrin ajo, mo tide ibi ti baba mi o mo, kaka ki ewe agbon de, lile lo tun nle koko si mijebi ooooo.....
Orlando is in Florida in USA, so continue to bear Orlando nobody can take it from you. Let them go to court. You can bear Commander, Elder Obey cannot stop you. It is Orlando Julius that first bear Orlando be4 Orlando Owoh. Please because of your voice change back to Orlando Adex for your progress.
before you even interjected with the case of Orlando Julius, i already thought we have someone who bears Orlando Julius.....so Orlando is not a trademark at all, however i love the young man, he has his own principles.
Santana handed over his musical empire to Taye Turaya and he’s been ruling the whole of Akoko since then. Ayello was another talent that sang exactly like Ebenezer Obey but his erratic lifestyle affected him. RIP Ayello
Shina Ade. Pls, do not be intimidated. Kunle Orlando tried to sing like his Dad, but you and Orlando West sing better than Kunle. Orlando is a city in the USA. Anyone can decide to bear it. Why will Orlando children be fighting anyone because of that.
