about

Duncan Daniels addresses critics and bolsters the idea of doing it alone, going “Solo,” a word that also echoes the album title and is repeated constantly on the hook, prefaced by the chant in Yoruba “Wo okpto Wo oletomi” which translates to “They are not on my level, no one better.” Almost like a war cry before battle, as he opens you to this body of work. We also get to listen to Duncan’s versatility, taking on a rap verse for the first time with so much ownership and skilled word play.

lyrics

Omo commando
I’m a one man show
This na true story
Getting all the glory yuh
Notorious
Microphone killer
Every record is a thriller
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Doing it personal
Doing it personally
Come get a taste now
Kungfu like Jet Li
I dey ball like Shina Peters in the 90s
I dey sing like Wande Coal in 2013
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
I be lone star
Ghanaian flag on a foreign car
Light up your night sky
Like a shooting star
Heading for the limelight
Shooting far
What’s cooking ma
E don teh I don dey for the scene
Still the fire dey burn from within
Waiting for my reign to begin
You try you fall you try again
No retreating No surrendering
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Wo okpoto Wo le tomi
Doing it personal
Doing it personally
Come get a taste now
Kungfu like Jet Li
I dey ball like Shina Peters in the 90s
I dey sing like Wande Coal in 2013
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
Solo solo solo
Solo solo
