The album’s powerful intro, “Zaman Lafiya”, increases the anxiety for the rest of the project. Previously released tracks, “Suffer Suffer” and “Cash” follow after before the Tems-assisted “Good Times”.
With a captivating opener from Tems, “Good Times” is a bold mix of R&B synths, African percussive styles and funky bass patterns. Throughout the album, Donli flaunts her eclectic taste, as well as her knack for alternating between genres seamlessly.
Another interesting track on the album due to the depth of its musical influences is “Around” – an infusion of multiple sounds all channelled into a vivacious and uplifting track, Lady Donli’s “Around” truly affirms that, as she sings, “na she dey reign”.

Alongside Tems on the rest of the album, Lady Donli features a cast of some favourite rising stars; Musical duo – VanJess, young up-and-comer, SOLIS. With talented artistes on her tracklist, Lady Donli’s collaborative numbers definitely steal the show.
Somadina’s compelling vocals on “FLAVA”, complemented by Amaarae’s soft tones, make for one of the most beautiful tracks on the album, while Donli, VanJess and The Cavemen bring it home on the distinctly Nigerian gem, “Corner Corner”.
With the release of this impressive lineup, Lady Donli fans are right to be excited for this album. Not one to disappoint herself, Donli has delivered an infectious body of work, coupled with a clear direction and brilliant soundscape.
