Alternative singer Similola Ogunleye a.k.a Simi
has gotten her dream collaboration with music
legend Innocent Idibia a.k.a 2 Face, 2 Baba or
Tu Baba on the release of the ‘Simisola’ deluxe
album.
The duo came together on the remix of ‘Original
Baby’ , part of the original ‘Simisola’ album
initially released in 2017.
Simi announced the song’s release on her
Instagram page @simplysimi on Wednesday by
sharing a snippet of the song with the caption,
“Issa legend @official2baba”.
The collaboration comes five years after Simi
tweeted about her wish to work with 2 Baba,
whose song ‘African Queen’ is regarded as a
timeless classic.
In 2015, Simi tweeted @Simplysimi, “One day,
very soon, I’ll work wichu. Promise RT
@2faceidibia: One love 2 all 2baba pples! I hail
o. I say without u there will be no me!”
The tweet went viral and fans of both musicians
appealed for the collaboration to take place
between the two musicians who are described
as ‘musical powerhouses’.
Although the original ‘Simisola’ album only
featured Adekunle Gold on ‘Take Me back’, the
Deluxe version contains two collaborations with
2 Baba and renowned producer Sigag Lauren.
The version contains 14 original tracks and two
remixes; ‘Original Baby’with 2 Baba and ‘Smile
for Me remix’ with Lauren. (NAN)
