Banky W - Strong thing [Review]

Strong thing, [a controversial title among many non-Nigerians who mistake it for the state of his endowment] can be thought of as an attempt to revive R ati B on a worldwide scale. The concept and quality of the video are one of the few things that make it a useful medium for global revival because as you may have noticed R 'n' B is on its death bed, awaiting prescription and a qualified doctor. Although it will be hard for oga Banky to perform this act of revival on his own, he is giving it a shot and in my opinion, the man is more than qualified.

The instrumentals are very relaxing and creates a mood which match the lyrical content. However, the flute played at the start of each chorus can get a bit annoying and usually puts me out of my relaxed phase. It reminds me of something off the tess of the d'urbervilles soundtrack (just the flute) though I must admit, it adds a touch of class to the musical experience but should have been turned down a notch.

He discusses one of those love at first site moments we have all experienced or learnt in a song, book or movie but he takes a more mischievous approach using metaphors which compare his emotional situation to different household equipments including a telephone and a doorbell. Overall, its a very good listen, soothing the souls of many couples and even the single ladies and gentlemen out there.
