Song Review: “Head Swell” by Iyanya{via@234vibes}

The song is a little shift from the fast-tempo songs Iyanya has been dishing out lately — “Kukere,” “Flavour” etc. He reminds us of the Iyanya that won the MTN Project Fame, going slowly on the beat, yet killing it gradually.

Iyanya in this song produced by 2kriss has his head swell having sighted a (bad) girl but he is a bit cautious, asking the girl if she is more than eighteen. He tells us how the lady “can’t wait” and how “she is ready to see so many things,” Iyanya keeps asking if she is old enough for the “show” for he knows that he is the “best thing” in this regard.

Iyanya even tells us that he fears not whether it’s only one girl or “all of them,” he is ready for them, provided they are above eighteen years. The fusion of the Jamaican patois and the pidgin is a plus to the song and aids  ts acceptance on the street.
This reggae-like song requires no energy to dance to, it is a song probably for the couple, while the guy moves his body to the beat, the lady does a slow wind that makes the head of the guy swell. Little wonder Iyanya dedicates this to all the sexy ladies. It’s a fair one from the kukere master.

 RATING The song is not so wordy as it has its strength in the excess use of repetition. Iyanya’s style seems to be a heavy reliance on beat while accompanying it with few lyrics, hoping that the audience ignore the scanty lyrics and dance to the beat. A grade of 6.3 out of a possible 10 is appropriate for the song.
