Review of Omah Lay Second Album ‘Clarity of Mind’
Omah Lay don drop him second album wey im call ‘Clarity of Mind’ and e dey show say the Port Harcourt boy don grow well well for him music and life. Instead of the old depressive talk about mental health wey people know am for, this one na about acceptance and finding peace through enjoyment. The album get 12 tracks full of sex, money, ego and plenty pleasure wey the star dey chase to cool him mind. After plenty drama like sound theft wey make am remake everything, Omah Lay turn the paranoia into fuel for better music. Tracks like ‘Jah Jah Knows’, ‘Don’t Love Me’, ‘Water Spirit’, ‘Waist’, ‘Julia’ and ‘Canada Breeze’ dey talk about sex plenty, marijuana and good life without shame. Him even yarn for listening party say im addicted to women wey squirt, showing say e no dey hide nothing. One track ‘Coping Mechanism’ with him signee Elmah give small break from the hedonism to talk about pain and peace. Production na top level with Afrohouse, gyration and sweet melodies. The review give am 7.5 over 10, praising the growth, enjoyability and how e fit push am go global level. Some people go say na just hedonism but for Omah Lay, this enjoyment na him own therapy. Him even boast say na the greatest Afrobeats album in 20 years, which set high expectation but e deliver solid work wey show say him artistry no dey static. From ‘Get Layd’ days to now, the boy don level up well well.
