As always Falz delivered in ace, like he never disappoints. Feeling Good featuring Masterkraft is somewhat like what this vocal queen would deliver, but there is an extra something to it, that makes it sound deeper.

Of course, you can’t have Tiwa Savage and Waje on one song and not have a hit; All Day gives us that mix. wajeThe resounding trumpet that emphasizes the reggae sound beneath is just beautiful. The first song that has just Waje on it is Nobody and its like a breath of fresh air because it just sounds so Waje (lol).
