The track dubbed Body Riddim, has been topping since it came out a few days ago and it’s not so hard to understand why because this jam is really dope.

Basically, this jam is about a certain lady who is giving Runtown sleepless nights because of her body and beauty. It’s more of a physical attraction hence the title, Body Riddim.

To be honest, the first time I listened to this song I was not really sure if I would love it as much as I do now because it is quite different if you compare it to songs like; Mad Over You, For Life and Emotions.

Maybe, just maybe, that is what sets Body Riddim apart because it is a big deviation from the Afro-beat style which is now too common.

Actually, this track is a cocktail of sorts because it blends many genres and that explains why I’ve had it on replay for the last two days.

Body Riddim is also well arranged. It just flows and you’re likely to master the whole of it after listening to it once or maybe twice.

The vocals of the artists who are in it are also on point. They sound so pleasant to the ears , especially, of course, the one and only Runtown. He has never disappointed us and  today will not be his first day.

The beat and instrumentation is also good. I honestly can’t wait to see people busting moves to this jam the next time I hit the club. I also loved the video especially its quality and black and white tone.

Runtown has teamed up with Darkovibes on ‘Mike Tyson’ and it’s a hit (Video)

Award-winning Nigerian singer Douglas Jack Agu, popularly known as Runtown, has released a new jam with Mercy hitmaker Darkovibes and it’s getting a lot of love.

The song titled Mike Tyson is all about is all about having the courage to triumph over your enemies and people who hate on you just like Mike Tyson who is a former professional boxer.

I really love this song. It is very infectious and it’s likely that you’ll vibe to it from the moment you hit the play button.  You’ll also agree with me that it is well arranged.

To add to that, Darkovibes’ and Runtown’s voices really blend well in the song. It’s almost as if they were meant for each other. I know I’m pushing it. Sorry.

The beat on this jam is also very catchy. It flows so well. Believe you me, you will not resist the urge to hit the replay button at least a couple of times.

I loved the video for this jam too. It pains a better picture of what Darkovibes and Runtown are singing about. To add to that, it also had some dope shots.

“Redemption” by Runtown is a banger and we love it(Video)

After 5 months of waiting and almost losing hope, Runtown has released the official video of “Redemption.” The Nigerian song writer who possesses amazing vocal prowess has however been underrated so far.  Runtown seems to have walked in the shadows of a few big names in the industry.

What people haven’t realized yet is the huge potential carried by Runtown. Only listeners with the ear for good music appreciate his talent. Nigerians seem to highly value songs which are vigorous and can be danced to.

Runtown however walks a different path with the grace and finesse possessed by just a few. He has been in the industry for years and has done songs such as International Birdman Killer, Mad over You, Energy and Emotions.

Runtown of Redemption

Despite not being celebrated as much, he has gathered a good number of fans who have been waiting eagerly for this video.

Video

Set in vast, plush and serene fields: the video is exotic and depicts much affluence. The horse and doves involved compliment the exotic ambiance intended for the song. The sense of fashion in the video is also worth mentioning besides the two dancers whose dance choreography is spot on.

It is also worth mentioning that the lack of nudes, or scenes with drugs does not take away the beauty of the video in anyway. The fans are treated to pure talent and natural beauty in its authenticity.

Lyrics

“I swear you do not know what you do to me

Dangerous what you do to me

You go give me hypertension oh,”

Oh baby this is my confession oh

Give you love na my intention oh

 Baby show my ride for me

She be my redemption”

Nothing ever goes wrong with a love song. If the lyrics are well arranged as in this song: except for the accent interfering, Runtown will end up in love.

It’s a laid-back song, easy smooth beats and quite calming and therapeutic.
