Tosinger drops La Musico
Tosinger |
Afrosouljazz singer-songwriter
Tosinger just released a feel good Latin jazz vibe song that is pleasing to the
ears and light to the soul, is titled La
Musico, and she says it’s a song about the joys of music.
According to her, La Musico doesn't necessarily derive
from any language in particular even though the first thought would be Spanish.
'Music-o' is actually a play on the
characteristic pronunciation of the word, music, by Africans/Nigerians in always
adding ‘o’ to the end of a word or phrase as can also be heard in some parts of
the verse of the song.
Musico, however upon research, is
literally derivative of an Italian word meaning "expert musician" so
it all works. And ‘La’ is just well, what it is. It works well as a referential
preposition and also as Tosinger adds: “If you want to hum to music, you sing
la la la, so it's all in relation to and about music.”
The music of the song was
produced by versatile Bossbeats of Soundxtreem Studios and written, arranged
and performed by the talented Tosinger herself. Yemi Conga played the live
percussions and Funsho Pitan played live on the bass guitar.
This is Tosinger's second single
of the year. The first one was Heaven
Knows released January 2017 to usher in the new year and LM nicely rounds it up on a good note
and will obviously be a classic for all times.
LM can be downloaded on Bandcamp (and will also be available on all
digital platforms including iTunes, Amazon, SoundCloud, Spotify etc). The lyric
video featuring dancer and actor Femi Olagoke will be released on YouTube on
November 7, 2017.
