Music Community: PRESENTING A HIT SONG BY ASUQUO -A COVER
Hello, my friends in the Music community
This week I bring you something very special — a cover of One Hit Song by the Nigerian musical genius Cobhams Asuquo.
Hola amigos de la comunidad de Música
Esta semana les traigo algo muy especial: una versión de One Hit Song del genio musical nigeriano Cobhams Asuquo.
I’ve always admired Cobhams — not just for his talent as a singer, songwriter, and producer, but also for his inspiring story. Despite being blind, he has shaped the Nigerian music scene with incredible artistry and heartfelt songs. One Hit Song is witty, reflective, and very human — it speaks to the struggles and dreams of every artist.
Siempre he admirado a Cobhams — no solo por su talento como cantante, compositor y productor, sino también por su historia inspiradora. A pesar de ser ciego, ha marcado la música nigeriana con un arte increíble y canciones llenas de corazón. One Hit Song es ingeniosa, reflexiva y muy humana: habla de las luchas y los sueños de todo artista.
I recorded this version simply — guitar, voice, and honesty. Sometimes music doesn’t need much dressing; it just needs truth. Covering this song reminded me of the importance of hope, persistence, and humor, even in hard times.
Grabé esta versión de forma sencilla — guitarra, voz y honestidad. A veces la música no necesita adornos, solo necesita verdad. Cantar esta canción me recordó la importancia de la esperanza, la persistencia y el humor, incluso en los momentos difíciles.
