Efya officially releases the number which brings nostalgic and tingly feelings of summer and first crushes. Efya’s craft and creativity is simply applaudable as she seamlessly mixes and merges genres such as afrobeats, pop, kwaito and R&B in a single track. The song comes just in time for the warmer weather, as the singer revealed it was a year in the making but was well worth the wait, “But that’s how greatness happens – you take your time to get it right.”
Efya puts the appropriate icing on the cake by tapping African vocal power house and Queen, Tiwa Savage as the vocalist rightly dishes and metes out well meaning scales, worthy rhymes and rhythms coupled with blessed lyricism. This one right here is a dope collaboration featuring Nigerian superstar Tiwa Savage. “The One” is the follow up to her previous single, “Pricelezz” ft. Mugeez.The song was produced by BlaqJerzee.
The Afrobeat song blended with the pop sound and some element of Reggae vibe talks about how a man can be the only one that can light up a girl’s life. Efya says has this to say about her new release:
“I was recording at dawn trying to make this sound that was in my head and Blaq Jerzee, who’s a great producer, really translated it well. Tiwa had just woke up, she came to the room and was like, “what is this I hear?! Let’s do this song!” So that’s how it was.” It took a year to finish the track, the star reveals. “But that’s how greatness happens – you take your time to get it right.”
