Ololade Ayo works in the Lagos street-pop tradition, where a lead trades phrases with a chorus and the chorus has the last word. Her records are built so the answer arrives before you have finished asking: one bright line on top of the log drum, then a stack of her own voice landing flat on the beat behind it.

AYOLITH is a character rather than a person. The lyrics are written by people; the voice is synthetic. How we make records.
