Hello my beautiful and handsome afri-listners...

InShot_20231222_104901083.jpg

It's already the 94th week of Afritunes weekly contest, so for this week I did something different and special. I couldn't do my usual introduction on my video because I didn't sing alone this time and I'm sorry about that. I saw an opportunity and I made good use of it because it's not one that comes by easily.

It was about two weeks ago when my siblings and I went to visit a friend and when we got there his place was so quiet and the only thing that came to my mind was to create a music video because it was so hard to make a video at our place because of the too much noise there.

At first I thought of singing on my own but while I tried singing on my own they kept singing along so I just asked them to join me in singing! They were a bit reluctant but I'm glad in the end they agreed to join me. Our friend was a bit shy but the fact that he loves singing couldn't make him run so far, hehe.

That day we actually sang another song before we sang an African song titled EJIRO'GHENE ME'NA which I'm presenting in this video. It's an urhobo song which means LET US PRAISE THE LORD. The song was composed by a group called The SACRED SINGERS, an Acapella group in Nigeria. It was an easy song that we all could easily blend in to sing and it's a song I've never sang here before because it's best to sing this kind of song with a group.

It's one of the songs I love singing when I want to praise God and I'm very sure you'd like it too and it's super easy to learn. Now I'm actually thinking of how other Nigeria tribes would sing it! So don't hesitate to try singing it in your own dialet. My younger brother lead the song, my sister sang the tenor part, our friend sang the bass part and myself sang the alto part.

I hope you enjoy the sweet blend of melody and also glorify God with us even as you sing along.

Lyrics

Ejiro'ghene Mena...Mena
Ejiro'ghene Mena yo (as much as you want)

Ejiro'ghene........Mena Mena......
Ejiro'ghene........ Mena Mena....
Ejiro'ghene Mena yo

The solo is based on the leader's discretion 😊.

Until next time, stay AWESOME and JIGGY!!!
