King Ifey's Review of Seyi Shey's Airbrush.

Alright, I have a big confession to make to the whole world.

I was set upon thorns and nails  for not EVER reviewing Seyi Shey's Airbrush...LOL.

I mean, my friends and devoted readers couldn't bear that fact. So, they rang me up to censure me badly for leaving that song somewhere forgotten in my backyard, perhaps, buried near a fruitless tree...LOL.

Guys I'm deeply sorry for that stupidly silly and inane  omission. *grins from ear to ear* 😁😁😁

So, Airbrush it is. I actually listened to the song for the first time yesterday, and I have to tell you, it is the best thing since sliced bread in Nigeria.

If it were not that Nigeria as a whole  has been irremediably charmed to exclusively connect with songs that are either meaningless with uptempo beat, butt-filled with fiery uptempo beat, or rife with sexual contents and STILL uptempo beat, this song would've unarguably topped all charts in Nigeria and Africa.

Lyrically, you can perfectly connect to it as you follow her through it word after word. She tells the story of a couple who  has reached the darkest part of their relationship, constantly trying to show the world that they are still pretty much happy in their relationship.

You can snap all the beautiful pictures with your partner on Instagram and Facebook, you can fool the whole world by making us imagine you and your spouse in Eden, but then, when the reality dawns on you, you just can't wish it away. In other words, you can't airbrush reality.

Now, Seyi Shey has always been my sweetheart. Her song 'Right Now' is not a song I will forget in a hurry. It is absolutely not a song Africa can forget in a hurry too. Even when these street and Club bangers infiltrate our hearts and it feels like they can stay there forever, they obviously don't anyway. They fade away months later when other trending bangers emerge to obliterate them...LOL.

With that said, let me remind you again that Seyi Shey's Right Now and Airbrush  can never tow that path because  there is something about her songs  having a certain level of relevance we just can't overlook.

The video is completely in sync with the lyrics. I loved the aura is exudes. She looked pretty much like Alicia Keys on this one. Simplicity meets creativity on this one. Your eyes will still be glued to this one with a knowing that the director really immersed himself in trying to illicit the right emotion from you.

Now, if you are a singer and you just haven't done the cover of Airbrush, then we have to investigate  properly to know if  you really are a singer...LOL.

Just hurry up now... go give us your rendition and make the whole world happy.

Finally,  "We're Living proof that you can't airbrush reality"... These are her exact words. I shall leave you with them. *whispers* Just think about the song.

Watch the video here...Again

Listen Do check out Disturbed's Sound of Silence. A powerful song.
