Burna Boy / Love, Damini
Album Review
Burna Boy / Love, Damini
Nigeria出身のSinger, Burna Boyの6枚目のアルバム。2021年のGrammyでBest Global Music Albumを受賞し、波に乗ってのリリースとなる。ちなみにタイトルのDaminiは本人の1st nameとのこと。
出自であるAfrican Beatをベースに、Reggae, R&B, Hip-Hopを塗したようなサウンド(本人はAfro Fusionと呼んでいる)は、アーシーな雰囲気を残しつつ、適度に洗練されている。
TrackはAfrican Popなゆるめのノリのミディアム曲が多く、他には穏やかで懐かしい感じの曲など様々。曲調に合わせ、Burna Boyの唄もスムースなものとなっている。
ただ、19曲は多すぎな気がする。
