The album closes with a rich blend of Yoruba traditional sounds and Simi’s modern style. Featuring the legendary Ebenezer Obey, “Jowo” is both a love song and a cultural bridge between generations. The lyrics, sung partly in Yoruba, express gratitude, humility, and enduring affection.
Juju-inspired guitar and percussion ground the song in Nigerian musical heritage. Obey’s presence adds nostalgia, while Simi’s soft vocals bring freshness and warmth.
“Jowo” is triumphant yet subdued; a befitting conclusion to the album’s journey of rediscovery. It honors the past while embracing the present with honesty and gratitude.
