Homecoming

We all think about a place better than here sometimes. A place where we can kick back, relax, breathe easy, chill. A place that is familiar and warm, non-threatening and engaging. Nigerian-born singer, Siji, takes us there with his new video, "Yearning for home". The self-taught piano, percussion, and acoustic bass player makes nostalgia feel so right, so honest, so true with this new cut. A lover of Afrobeats and Brazilian rhythms myself, it was very refreshing to find this video and this artist. I believe he makes art, like this video, that many will be able to identify with, no matter where you are from. Check it out and see what you think.

Alas, enjoy..."Yearning for Home".
