O’s Notes: Abiola was born in Nigeria but grew up in London and has spent significant time in London, New York and Asia! She’s established a groove with a true global, club feel. There’s a pulsating dance beat on the opener “Kilofe” followed by the festive, island beats of “Give Me” and an R&B vibe on “Can’t Wait” & “What We’ll Be”. Our favorite is “Ko Le To” in a set built for dancing.
