On November 25, 2019, award-winning Nigerian songstress Yemi Alade released a new song alongside Duncan Mighty, who is famed for hits like 'Obianuju' and 'Port Harcourt Son'. The song, titled 'Shake', is off Yemi Alade's 'Woman Of Steel'.
'Shake' talks about how people can't control themselves in the presence of those they have feelings for. Yemi Alade says in the song that her body is shaking and it surpasses an earthquake, yet she still wants him to 'come and take the cake'. The song's sensual theme may not appeal to the prudish.
Yemi Alade's melodious voice is a major draw for the song, and the addition of Duncan Mighty's verse breaks the monotony. However, some listeners may find the beat and instrumentation lacking in life.
The song's video showcases Yemi Alade's sensual side, with her posing on a bed in an elegant powder blue mesh gown. Watch 'Shake' below and share your thoughts.
