Wow! Yoruba language and culture has no national boundaries. This akpala music is as authentic as the apala musics of Haruna Ishola, Kasumu Adio, and other apala musicians that i grew up with. My dad was a great fan of Haruna Ishola and would only play his music and Baba Miliki's. I bet he would have loved this as well.

[@felixlabode6999]

J'aime beaucoup cette musique, c'est apala original

[@remilekunolagunju4269]

This is awesome, Iru olorun ni o si sugbon iri Eda polojara!

[@oladosuabraham2781]

This is a revelational Apala musician, he must have learned from Haruna Ishola, The master himself. I never know about this man until you bring him to fore.
He comes from Yoruba on the other side of Nigeria - Benin Republic.

[@timewithDrdave]

Wow please who is listing to this song in 2020 ??

[@pjmppjmp4301]

Me of course not that he’s not Nigerian

[@Oponu-Ayirada]

[@nuridinadams9219]

I am listening to this 2024-02-10. This one of the best apala from Dahomey/Nigeria Yoruba ethnicity.

[@sajokumba]

The Yoruba language is a priestly language!!! Why Ifa has languished in the face of Christianity and Islam is reason for grave concern. We need an Afrikan Renaissance.
Souradjou's frst piece is a testimony to the fitness of this language to be a bridge between humans and the Gods. It is simply splendid!!!

[@HealthyLiving212]

This is classic Akpala the fundamental of JUJU music, it is sang in Gounh, Nago, OYO and Yoruba and Fon from Benin Republic to Nigeria. The very organic and pure Shango music...

[@sirfemo]

Wow!! Pure apala music. I have never heard of Souradjou Alabi. His style is that of that of Haruna Ishola. He and Musiliu Ishola sound a lot like the late Haruna Ishola. Thanks for posting this song.

[@remilekunolagunju4269]

Someone or an organization should work it out to bring this man to come and play in Nigeria at least during a festive period!

[@adetoksolatunji7132]

Wow! This is Akpala in its originality. It's like resurrected Late Alh. Haruna Ishola. Great Musician, Mr. Alabi. God bless your work. It's interesting we have Yorubas in Benin and some other countries of the World and yet they are not Nigerians.

[@adelaboumoucharaf2123]

Non c'est cool mahou

[@oladosuabraham2781]

Yoruba language has no rival, it is being studied in Nigerian Universities by the whites.
The Igbo traders at Alaba International Market, Lagos attests to it that Yoruba songs and drama sells heavily.

[@yormeey]

This is much appreciated @planetolusola. This music would make you understand and appreciate how vast Yoruba influence was/is.

[@jidefowode2070]

Great.This is PURE APALA MUSIC.Im from Ijebu Igbo.The home town of Late Haruns Ishola.I feel so proud.

[@pjmppjmp4301]

Sincerely the Yoruba people is the best in Africa maybe even in the world if you don’t pay close attention you’ll even know not that he’s not Nigerian

[@yinusaarilewola7184]

[@nuridinadams9219]

I am proud to have come from this (Yoruba)fantastic tribe.

[@kazeemadedokun3484]

Wow! I never knew Apala is so popular among Yorubas outside the shores of Nigeria. I found this significantly fabulous.

[@mystiquemysteria685]

It is very much loved by a generation of us that grew up listening to this beautiful genre of music. I was very lucky that my uncle had a music shop in front of our house, I got to listen to great music from my childhood, day in, day out, God rest his precious soul.

[@saxywale2]

They still sing apala in Benin Republic till date. The Yorubas in Nigeria are losing touch with their culture. Soon, we may have to travel to Benin Republic or Brazil to learn some of our Yoruba culture.

Love the Apala part in Egun language in the last part of the track

[@bertifederico]

Wonderful.

[@ajedeluwasa]

If I closed my eyes while somebody was playing this music, and I was asked to guess the musician, I would have guessed Haruna Ishola. But then, Haruna couldn't be alive singing about his own death... Greta music.
