MUSiC :: Oto Laleye – ”Ola” Feat. Gwen Samuel | @OtoLaleyeMusic
Multi-instrumentalist Oto Laleye has introduced a fresh sound into the gospel music industry titled ”Ola”.
Oto Laleye who is referred to in some quarters as the Father of Gospel Music in Ireland, said ”this track Ola was created as a ladder to get our worship to that very realm of the spirit and trust to our Almighty God. My aim was to create an atmosphere of nostalgia and emotion as the ear heard it.
As we know what makes Yoruba songs so special are the melodies our Fathers and their fathers before them used that consistently continue to grasp our ears at every listen.
Ola is a well known song within the Yoruba community, a song that is powerful in message, emotional and soothing in melody. With this it was only fair that my arrangement only gave support to the splendour that was already existent”.
Worship is a thing of the heart that can only be done in spirit and in truth.
