Yinka Oshodi has shown a promising knack for turning romantic conflicts into musical journals. After releasing “Options”, addressed to an unappreciative lover, she follows with “Continue”, where she admits her feelings won’t allow her let her lover go.
“On your way” isn’t exactly sacrosanct but Yinka plays to her vocal strengths. She is relatable and her topic is one that is common to all. She sings about the end product of countless hours of texting and getting to know an interest. It is about the mood when eventually there is the meeting. It sets the ambience, the mood, the stage. This is a song to add to your post dinner meeting with any love interest. The R&B song is crisp, smooth with her vocals gracing through the record with lyrics eliciting sensuality. This is a tune for just that – eliciting, exciting feelings and sensuality. Her lyrics carry with it desire, want or maybe even need. The production is tempo-ed, mellowed with her desire carried by her tone and words.
However, in spite of the alluring groove she embodies, her loving sentiments are dipped in the dark shadow she casts, drawing parallels between her lover’s charm and her witty desires. Her romantic confessions are so raw, she lets listeners decide if their love interest deserves all that power and attention. Yinka Oshodi is an admirable talent to keep an eye out on. The Covenant University graduate is a tempered and yet inviting act.
