Four Kornerz have already proved to any skeptics than Nigerians can do the R&B gospel thing as well as any American or Brit. If you still had any doubts, here comes another soul-inspired Nigerian to convince you. Tayme lives in London and recorded this album in London and LA - in the studio recently set up over there by UK jazz man Mike Parlett (who turns up with his saxophone on a couple of tracks). The opener, "Lift Him Up" is a joyful Hi-Life flavoured worship song. The tempo then drops considerably for the next track - "Baba Ye", a ballad with lyrics in Yoruba and plenty of Mike Parlett's sax. Those two tracks make up the album's "African" content; from then on, Tayme stays pretty much in R&B territory with varying degrees of success.
