    This song was in my top 10 most listened to last year, and I think I researched it last year but it was even better to hear you explain it, and in such a clear manner. I'm a Brit living in Austria and thanks to videos like yours I'm able to deeply connect to music in Yoruba and complicated West African slang. What an amazing world - thank you.

    Another interpretation of "lai lai" and arguably a more literal translation is "never ever". Eku'she o! Well done! Great work by you!

    • @johnjackissorryinfrench7777
      @johnjackissorryinfrench7777 Рік тому +2

      Yes! There is some overlap or common vocabulary between the Yoruba and Itsekiri languages.

    Asake is very cryptic so very hard to translate

    • @simbihawt
      @simbihawt  Рік тому +1

      Yeah a lot of these artists use so many personal experiences, slangs, codes etc. I can never expect to get it all lol

    Your foreign accent gives a wrong impression of how knowledgeable you are about Yoruba Language. Don't tell me your mom or a someone else helped you with it. If I may ask, where are you from in Nigeria ?

    • @simbihawt
      @simbihawt  11 місяців тому +3

      I’m from Abeokuta and yes I do research like asking people, internet, my mom, etc.
